00:17.20romanovicspeaking of dinner, I keep getting conflicting dinner requests from my wife today.  "I want mexican food." "Are you asking me to bring some home with me?"  "no, I'm telling myself 'NO'"
01:21.38spangbornMmmm pie

16:55.43romanovicThat story about the news site requiring a quiz before commenting is interesting. http://www.niemanlab.org/2017/03/this-site-is-taking-the-edge-off-rant-mode-by-making-readers-pass-a-quiz-before-commenting/

16:55.59spangbornI approve
16:56.15spangbornIt's like the GMail add-on you could enable to prevent drunk e-mails
16:56.20spangbornWhere you had to solve a math problem
16:57.06romanovicThey're not censoring comments, they're just blocking potential commenters who haven't actually read the article, or can't demonstrate a very basic understanding of the subject of the article
16:57.31spangbornI think it's a great idea, tbh
16:57.36spangbornI wish KSL would do it
16:58.19romanovicyeah, ksl comments are too often a cesspool
16:58.50frostyfrogI also approve of this idea, so long as every quiz actually pertains to the article.
17:01.57aeryndunhamYeah, if it's actually questions about what you theoretically just read - great idea
17:02.02romanovicyes.  and also, as long as the questions are fact-based and not politically slanted
17:02.25spangbornWhat about alt-facts
17:02.27spangbornDo those count?
17:02.47aeryndunhamit's not as though Internet comment sections are some Constututional right or anything - if you want to go off on a tirade based on the headline of an article you didn't read, you can start a blog :p
17:03.08spangbornYeah, the best place for that blog is...
17:03.10spangborn/dev/null
17:05.02frostyfrogI thought it was Tumblr or MySpace >_>
17:12.19spangbornhttps://usercontent.irccloud-cdn.com/file/0yQ0lsSE/
17:12.24spangbornThis could be fun
17:12.34spangborn(Internal test of a facial recognition app)
17:16.03romanovichaha.  I tweeted the idea at @KSLcom.  Ironically, they responded within seconds, probably too quickly to have actually read the article. "It's a very interesting idea. We are all in favor of cleaning up the comments section when we can."
17:18.00spangbornHahaha
17:18.04spangbornI know who runs that account :)
17:19.08romanovicis it anyone we know on irc?
17:19.38unumcarmony
17:19.58unumwell he wouldn't be running that account
17:20.05unumbut he'd have to implement the new system
17:20.41spangbornI'll have to give Stephan some shit about it too
17:40.27aeryndunhamdang pizza reheats well in the oven
17:40.40romanovicagreed. so much better than the microwave
17:44.44SunSparcromanovic: tweet link? So I can add a heart to it.

17:50.18aeryndunhamargh we're out of soda; tragedy; hashtag first world problems
17:50.55SunSparcromanovic: upvoted

17:51.46romanovicwoot
17:52.03SunSparcaeryndunham: You need to run down to Sodalicious.
17:52.49SunSparcI have contemplated on a number of occasions starting a site with the "first world problems" theme.
17:53.04spangbornaeryndunham: Do you know if the Boston aquarium is good?
17:53.13spangbornI'm thinking of doing that on Sunday if they're open :)
17:54.41aeryndunhamSunSparc: Were I in Utah, absolutely
17:54.53aeryndunhamspangborn: Yes, the aquarium is fantastic!!!
17:55.06SunSparcaeryndunham: :)
17:55.10unummmmm pizza
17:55.20unummaybe I'll get a cous cous flat bread for lunch
17:55.24spangbornSweet :)
17:55.33aeryndunhamshould be open on Sunday
17:55.40romanovicI still don't understand the demand for businesses like sodalicious. It's like fast food! except no actual food.  Just sugar drinks where they add flavor syrups, because they need more sugar.  Also cookies and brownies because drinking sugar is not enough
17:55.56romanovicand... that's all.
17:55.57spangbornI get in at 6:40AM and have the entire day to explore
17:56.07spangbornromanovic: A new one just opened by my house
17:56.09spangbornIt's absurdly popular
17:56.35spangbornYou could make bank by opening one and selling gluten free food
17:57.29romanovicI do go there on occasion under specific circumstances 1. I want caffeine right now 2. I'm driving with my kids in the car and just want to drive through somewhere quick
17:57.50romanovicand they do have sugar free energy-drink-based menu items.

18:04.20aeryndunhamToday's driving course lesson is telling me that I need to be in compliance with my high school's attendance policy to get my license :p
18:05.17spangbornlol

18:05.35SunSparc~srsly

18:43.23spangbornlol
18:43.26spangbornWhat now?
18:43.33aeryndunhamthey blocked all cloud servies in an "attempt to stop the bandwidth loss from auto backups and updates"
18:43.39aeryndunhamALL CLOUD SERVICES
18:44.05aeryndunhamMostly the only fallout so far are the hordes of little old ladies who are outraged that they now can't play Words With Friends
18:44.10aeryndunhambut, gah
18:45.09spangbornlol
18:45.21spangbornBut hey, you can always VPN
18:46.14aeryndunhamour passengers don't know how to do that
18:46.43aeryndunham"Guys, as per the email sent this morning, games are now blocked. There are no plans to unblock them at this time."
18:46.57aeryndunhamThese are passengers paying for Internet, this isn't like, corporate connections people are using at work
18:47.38spangbornMaybe the crew can show them
18:47.39spangbornlol
18:47.40joshhphone vpning can be hard
18:48.01joshhalso there was that article recently about how almost all android vpn apps are complete snake oil
18:51.14aeryndunhamoh, wow, TIL I am considered a "small adult" and I should never sit in the front seat of a car
18:51.55joshhwhat are your dimensions
18:52.12aeryndunhamI am less than 5'5"
18:52.17aeryndunhamand that is their cutoff
18:52.36joshhstrange
18:52.45joshhplenty of adults are below that
18:53.20aeryndunhamYeah
18:55.18spangbornaeryndunham: I didn't know you were so small
18:55.33aeryndunhamI'm 5'2"
18:55.40aeryndunhamwhich I don't think is THAT small
18:55.42spangbornOn the bright side
18:55.46spangbornThat makes flights better
18:55.47joshhthat should be a viable size
18:55.56aeryndunhamhaha yeah I never have an issue with legroom on planes
18:55.56spangbornAll that leg room
18:56.11spangbornI'm short for a man
18:56.31joshhim 5-11, maybe 6-0 if i try to stand perfectly straight
18:57.00joshhtoo short for basketball but fine for riding in vehicles
18:57.32spangbornI'm 5'9"
18:57.42spangbornBut I used to be a pretty good 3-point shooter :)
18:58.13joshhsame
18:58.22joshhwas great at basketball in middle/high school
18:58.53aeryndunhamI was horrifically bad at basketball
18:59.00spangbornI got dunked on in HS though
18:59.08spangbornBy Layton Christian Academy's point guard
18:59.10spangbornlol
18:59.25spangbornGuy was like 5'11" and incredibly good
19:00.12joshhi didn't play on the official teams there, but played regularly for fun with the actual players and friends
19:00.23joshhdidn't want to do 5am practices because that would suck
19:00.29spangbornI played high school for a 1A school
19:00.37spangborn10 people in my graduating class, heh
19:00.53aeryndunham10 people? dang
19:01.06spangbornYep.
19:01.09aeryndunhamalthough fun that everyone could say they graduated in top 10 :p
19:01.19spangbornlol except the kids that didn't graduate
19:01.28spangbornWOMP WOMP
19:01.35aeryndunhamhaha
19:01.48spangbornTiny tiny private school
19:01.50aeryndunhamwe had quite a few who didn't graduate but you don't notice as much when there were 400
19:02.59spangbornI think we had two that didn't
19:03.06spangbornThey walked, but had to do some summer classwork
19:03.21spangbornBecause who wants to humiliate 1/5 of your graduating class
19:47.37unumI've always been bad at everything
19:47.45unumI blame the athritis
19:47.51aeryndunhamwhoops, I've had my bedroom window and it's pouring down buckets
19:48.04unumok there's one thing I'm good at, computers
19:48.10unumthat's it. it's my one talent
19:49.07unumI'm not actually that good, it's just most people are so much worse
19:56.29frostyfrogaeryndunham: After you said that, I had to make a double take of who was talking. x3
19:57.48aeryndunhamI forgot the word 'open' there. whoops.
19:59.10aeryndunhamOk. I've made a chai latte, and I am now going to FOCUS and finish this dang course and take the test.
20:06.09aeryndunhamwhoooo test time
20:08.27frostyfrogGLHF
20:15.26aeryndunhamlol I somehow got 2 wrong
20:15.37aeryndunhamthey were all as awkwardly worded as the course text was though
20:26.21frostyfrogo.o
20:26.25frostyfrogIt's a test.
20:26.37frostyfrogAren't they supposed to be more official looking?
20:27.07frostyfrogWhoever took wrote the test/practice obviously never took technical writing in college. :p
20:27.27aeryndunhamhaha no it was awful
20:27.40aeryndunhambut you only needed 80% to pass and I got 95% so who cares at this point :p
20:29.39aeryndunhamnow I actually have to go to a DMV and take the real written test
20:32.02frostyfrog38/40? not bad :)
20:39.09aeryndunhamnope
20:39.11aeryndunhamthanks!
20:39.50frostyfrogguessed based on the missed 2 and 95%

21:16.55frostyfrogNice :)
21:17.27frostyfrogI can barely ride from Costco in Lehi to the AF cemetary. ;-;
21:18.59spangbornThis was a pretty rough ride
21:19.18spangbornFirst really exerting ride since getting sick
21:25.28frostyfrogThat long straight line? I could probably do that.
21:27.53frostyfrogSo yeah, good job :)
21:43.50jimaspangborn: you live off of 1300W?
21:45.10spangbornYep
21:45.52spangbornNot all that far from Kerry
21:46.33jimamakes note of where to avoid ;-)
21:46.52spangbornHaha. You should avoid it right now. Construction everywhere.
21:47.01spangbornDriving anywhere around my house is a nightmare right now.
21:47.05jimai go by on 7800 pretty regularly
21:47.22spangborn72 is a Charlie Foxtrot right now
21:47.24jimaoccasionally i go down that chunk of 1300
21:47.37jimaworse west of redwood, isn't it?
21:48.00spangbornIt's all ripped up now.
21:48.12spangbornLike 2200W to 1300W
21:49.20jimai've gone NB redwood -> WB 7200 a couple of times lately, haven't really been on 7200 between redwood and 700 W lately
21:49.39jimait's past 2200 W though, at times it was going to 3200 W or so
21:49.42spangborn1300 is bad because of it now, too
21:50.00spangbornAnything intersecting 7200 is a traffic nightmare.
21:50.35jimaredwood hasn't been too awful the few times i've crossed 7200 on it lately (caveat: not during rush hour)
21:51.08jimai tend to avoid 7200 though, since i live off of 7800 (and jordan landing blvd is kind of lame)
21:54.13spangbornRush hour around here makes me want to cry.
21:54.30spangbornIt took me 20 minutes to drive 2.4mi from the dog park in Taylorsville back home
21:55.59jimarush hour...where? utah?
21:56.17spangborn7200 S right now
21:56.22jimameh
21:56.31spangbornMy options to get home in the car are 7200, Redwood, or 90th
21:56.36jimahave you ever experienced rush hour in a bigger city?
21:56.40spangbornAll of which suck with construction
21:56.49spangbornI have. Doesn't mean I can't hate it though ;p
21:58.00jimaok...i'll consider your commentary frivolous whining then ;-)
21:58.12spangbornHahaha
21:58.27spangbornWhat of my commentary *isn't* frivolous whining? ;p
21:58.32jimai don't missm rush hour in the twin cities. 3-4 hour drives home? NO THANK YOU.
21:58.57jima(my commutes were normally 30-60 minutes)
21:59.03jima(well, maybe 40-60)
22:00.01spangbornMy commute via public transit is about 35-55min :/

22:17.37jlp_zncI can walk it in 40-45 minutes when the weather is nice.
22:19.00jlp_zncTook 7200 S out to Bangerter this morning to take my wife to an appointment, though, and I should have taken 7800.  7200 is a slalom course all the way from 700 W to 4000 W.
