[01:07] brousch: Thank you. :) [12:11] Good morning. [12:20] yes [12:23] Good morning [12:25] So Ford work was fun for a short while. Now it's feeling like Chrysler... twiddling thumbs and waiting. [13:50] heh [13:50] Yeah, Ford and Chrysler are quite similar in many regards. [13:51] wolfger: you work for Ford? [13:53] jrwren_: I work for Sandalwood Engineering. We have multiple contracts, including Chrysler and Ford. I used to be a straight-up Chrysler contract worker. Came to Sandalwood about a year ago, and currently working at Ford until the next Chrysler project is ready to go. [13:53] wolfger: ah, cool. [14:05] Variety is always nice. I get to taste multiple flavors of corporate inefficiency. :-D [14:06] My favorite inefficiency so far is having to run IE8 in a virtual machine to be able to use a Ford-standard IT system. [14:12] ha! [14:13] Again, not much difference between the two. :) [14:14] 'cept for public v. private. [14:14] and from what we know, profit v. not. [14:14] Culturally they were quite similar when I was there [14:15] with folks inside telling me that "The New New New New Chrysler" is even more paranoid than when I was there. [14:17] cmaloney: confirmed [14:17] Ford, so far, is much nicer atmospherically. [14:17] I am back on IRC, after all :-D [14:18] Yeah [15:38] http://38.media.tumblr.com/d8f4e193c842f1b15fc489fbc9566dac/tumblr_nal4p9J0151s4df8ko1_1280.png [15:38] http://goo.gl/r2zGKk - image/png [15:38] Gah, bookiebot, come on. "A Judgemental Map of Detroit" ^ [15:40] Ted Nugent is no longer in Michigan. [15:40] cmaloney: lets sing "ding dong the witch is dead." [15:41] har har [15:42] that map doesn't even cover my city. Phooey. [15:58] So does bookiebot keep a collection of all links posted here? [15:58] wolfger: It used to. Not sure if it still does or not. [15:59] https://bmark.us/bookiebot/recent [16:00] Man, SCO still exists? [16:00] did Ted bug out in his bug out vehicle with all of his guns and shit? [16:02] I think he moved to Texas because Michigan started taxing him too much [16:08] Hm, not seeing anything to corroborate that assertion [16:08] I think he still has land in Michigan. [16:11] "I left Detroit because the liberal Democrats engineered the absolute suicide of this fantastic city with their horrific anti-American, anti-freedom, anti-independence agenda," said Nugent. [16:11] What a loon [16:14] Nugent still owns 300 acres of property in western Jackson County, which is used as a hunting ranch, known as Sunrize Acres, and a part-time residence for the rocker and his family. Nugent's primary residence is Waco, Texas. [16:14] *WACO*?! [16:14] So there you have it... the Motor City Madman is now the Whacko From Waco. [16:14] muthereffing [16:14] but he will keep hunting in Michigan [16:15] Waco is a pretty nice city. [16:15] beautiful ranches. I think it has a river going through it or something, so its not super dry. [16:17] Yeah, Waco has beautiful ranches... http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Waco_siege [16:17] http://goo.gl/n6GLx - Waco siege - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia [16:19] wolfger: yes, Jenett Reno liked to kill inoscent people. She isn't around anymore. [16:21] The truth will likely never be known, but people who believe they are innocent of wrongdoing usually do not fight authorities to the death. [16:24] I'm not sure you can categorically make that statement [16:25] which statement? [16:25] "...people who believe they are innocent of wrongdoing usually do not fight authorities to the death." [16:26] I think the qualifier of "usually" makes it true. [16:26] I'd submit the reverse is more likely [16:26] most people would never fight authorities. [16:26] if you're innocent you'll fight tooth and nail to continue to be seen in that light [16:27] Your statement holds true for the innocent man who has lost all faith in the legal system [16:27] * greg-g raises hand [16:27] but most people, in my opinion, have enough faith in the legal system to try the courts over a firefight that logically cannot be won. [16:27] really? I guess my friend circle is biased [16:28] at least, once the tv crews get there, I would feel confident in making it to trial [16:28] Well, if you're sole organizational purpose is waiting for the eventual breakdown in society and the end of the world having a standoff with armed authorities is the fudge topping to that dessert. [16:28] prior to tv crews arriving, I would be less willing to come out [16:28] cmaloney: good point [16:35] but regarding my statement: I think the number of arrests made without gunfire is a good stat in my favor. :-p [16:45] its sad that most people are that naive [16:46] number of arrests without gunfire is unrelated. [16:48] I'm not sure I follow your reasoning here. [16:52] most arrests have nothing to do with anyone wanting to fight authorities or even fight for freedom. [16:52] If I had to guess, I would guess that DUI constitutes most arrests. [16:53] If not most, then highest number of a single type [16:54] http://www.fbi.gov/about-us/cjis/ucr/crime-in-the-u.s/2010/crime-in-the-u.s.-2010/persons-arrested [16:54] http://goo.gl/KoTYSE - FBI — Arrests [16:55] Highest number (outside of traffic violations) is Drug-related [16:55] Which is pathetic [16:56] And a good number of those are related to marijuana posession [16:56] Which is pathetic [16:58] cmaloney: nice. [16:59] Yes.... [16:59] and? [17:00] wolfger: we are not communicating. [17:00] I'm failing to see how what you're saying is related to what I was talking about. [17:00] Its ok. [17:00] I don't think I understand you. [17:01] and yes, I agree that the number of arrests for marijuana is very sad [17:02] cmaloney challenged my assertion that "...people who believe they are innocent of wrongdoing usually do not fight authorities to the death.", and I was saying that the number of arrests in which the arrestees do not even attempt to kill the police is kind of a point in my favor. How many of those people believe they are innocent is another, unknowable, matter. [17:03] I see. === jrwren_ is now known as jrwren [17:03] Number of arrests in those cases specifically supports your statement. [17:05] mostly I'm just trying to keep a conversation going because sitting on my thumbs for 8 hours is painful. I could/should have stayed home. [17:05] :( [17:05] read reddit? [17:06] I'm leary of reddit's sfw-ness [17:06] oh? [17:06] make your own reddit account, unsubscribe from all the defaults and subscribe to good subreddits. [17:06] maybe that's just me ;-) [17:06] it can be very SFW if you use it wisely [17:07] I like to hang out in Funny and WTF, which are iffy and hell-no respectively [17:07] or various gaming reddits, but I've already read those for today and new material doesn't come very quickly [17:11] Brewing and TheBrewery get new content even less frequently [17:17] ...and the person I've been waiting for all day just postponed until "tomorrow afternoon, or Wednesday". I'm outta here. [17:19] Heh [23:29] Evening.
