skellat | Unit193: It was nicer when I was down in Mayfield earlier | 00:33 |
Unit193 | -c -c -c! | 00:34 |
skellat | Unit193: What's been cookin' today? | 00:35 |
Unit193 | Checking fluid in the cars, working with gilir to get l-d-s working, etc, etc, etc. :P | 00:36 |
skellat | Ah | 00:36 |
skellat | My second visit to a hospital this week for me. This time to pick up a relation who was previously deposited for surgical work. | 00:36 |
Unit193 | That'd indicate they are fine, since you picked them up. | 00:37 |
skellat | Yep | 00:38 |
skellat | The relation had "robotic surgery" | 00:39 |
skellat | And from how the machinery was described, **nobody** was pondering if the things was running F/LOSS software. It was described as something that looked like it used a comic book as design inspiration. | 00:40 |
skellat | An issue of the X-Men from the 1970s perhaps | 00:40 |
skellat | Have you given any thought as to what you'd like to do under the proposed delegation? | 00:42 |
skellat | If anything, that is | 00:42 |
* skellat disappears | 00:48 | |
Unit193 | Don't know, you got the reply not from me? | 00:50 |
skellat | Unit193: No reply from you | 01:39 |
Unit193 | Wasn't what I was asking. :P | 01:40 |
skellat | Unit193: I got the reply from jrgifford | 01:40 |
* skellat is dumbfounded by the ABC show "The Neighbors | 01:47 | |
skellat | s/"The Neighbors/"The Neighbors | 01:47 |
skellat | Bloody bluetooth keyboard! | 01:47 |
* skellat goes to find tea | 01:48 | |
* Unit193 already has tea. | 01:48 | |
jrgifford | steamos is debian based. neato. | 14:28 |
Unit193 | Yeppers. | 14:54 |
jrgifford | skellat: whats the weather like in the land of covered bridges? | 16:57 |
skellat | Pretty and not too messy | 16:57 |
jrgifford | sweet. | 16:57 |
skellat | Of course, the weather did result in a big power outage for one area yesterday due to a crash: http://www.starbeacon.com/local/x1005125342/79-year-old-North-Kingsville-woman-dies-in-Route-84-crash | 16:59 |
jenni | [ 79-year-old North Kingsville woman dies in Route 84 crash » Local News » The Star Beacon; Ashtabula, Ohio ] - https://j.mp/18s3QsY | 16:59 |
jrgifford | ouch. | 16:59 |
skellat | Yeah, that's how fragile our local power & comms infrastructure can be | 17:01 |
skellat | Besides, our cell towers get "backhoe interference" at the worst times when people fail to Call Before You Dig | 17:02 |
jrgifford | i regard all utilities to be fragile. | 17:02 |
jrgifford | POTS is slightly less fragile, i make some assumptions about it *being* there. | 17:02 |
jrgifford | but that's about it. | 17:02 |
skellat | POTS, electricity, Time Warner Cable, and I can't remember who else all got knocked out with that accident | 17:03 |
skellat | Thankfully it was a lower populated area of Kingsville Township stretching into Sheffield Township | 17:06 |
skellat | Ashtabula City and the 3 surrounding townships (Plymouth, Saybrook, and Ashtabula) would've been a bit of a problem | 17:07 |
dzho | jrgifford: I've been resisting joining the ham effort, but the increasing irrelevance of POTS has me reconsidering | 19:04 |
dzho | with the idea that ham radio might be a better emergency fallback than POTS these days | 19:05 |
jrgifford | dzho: hm. interesting point. | 20:15 |
* skellat is still writing his report to the Ashtabula County Metroparks Board for the December 2013 meeting he won't actually be physically present at | 20:20 | |
