| pleia2 | baseball \o/ | 03:53 |
|---|---|---|
| nhaines | Yay? | 03:57 |
| ianorlin | well two southern California teams got eliminated | 03:57 |
| pleia2 | hehe | 03:57 |
| pleia2 | sorry | 03:57 |
| nhaines | Boo. :P | 03:57 |
| pleia2 | I learned that you can still *listen* to games on the AM radio for free | 03:58 |
| pleia2 | other option was to go to a bar, which, no | 03:58 |
| nhaines | But noise! Also alcohol. | 03:58 |
| nhaines | I just check Google Now for updates. | 03:58 |
| pleia2 | that's what I did before, and listen to street noise :) | 03:59 |
| pleia2 | during that 18 inning game a few days ago the street noise was great | 03:59 |
| pleia2 | the radio is now having a commercial about bleeding gums | 04:00 |
| pleia2 | nice | 04:00 |
| pleia2 | (ew) | 04:00 |
| nhaines | If you don't talk to your children about bleeding gums, who will? | 04:01 |
| pleia2 | the dentist? | 04:01 |
| nhaines | Of doom. | 04:03 |
| pleia2 | redundant | 04:04 |
| nhaines | haha :) | 04:04 |
| pleia2 | now I'm hearing prop 46 propaganda | 04:09 |
| DonkeyHotei | i haven't looked at my voter guide yet, no idea what that is | 04:09 |
| pleia2 | oh gosh, I need to order my ballot | 04:10 |
| nhaines | Medical Malpractice lawsuit cap. | 04:10 |
| DonkeyHotei | eww | 04:10 |
| pleia2 | there, done | 04:11 |
| DonkeyHotei | i'm "permanent vote by mail" and i kinda have to be since i'm a pollworker in the election | 04:12 |
| pleia2 | I should probably do that, I don't remember the last time I was in town during an election | 04:12 |
| nhaines | I always voted on my break. Often at the poll I worked at. | 04:12 |
| DonkeyHotei | nhaines: that's not allowed here | 04:12 |
| nhaines | In LA County you can cast your vote at any precinct in the county, but you can only vote in local ordinances in the same locality. | 04:13 |
| pleia2 | the natives are getting restless | 04:14 |
| DonkeyHotei | but, last time i brought my sealed vote by mail envelope to the poll i worked at and had it counted there | 04:14 |
| nhaines | But since I often worked at my assigned precinct, it was often a short trip. | 04:14 |
| DonkeyHotei | i am assigned to my home precinct, i looked | 04:15 |
| nhaines | In LA County you can drop off a by-mail ballot at any precinct. | 04:15 |
| DonkeyHotei | as i was last time | 04:15 |
| nhaines | They don't open them, just collect and deliver them. | 04:15 |
| DonkeyHotei | same in SF | 04:15 |
| DonkeyHotei | the ballot in SF this time is 4 or 5 double sided pages, depending on the precinct | 04:16 |
| pleia2 | oh brother | 04:19 |
| pleia2 | I don't want to read about that much stuff | 04:19 |
| DonkeyHotei | even-numbered supervisorial districts vote for the board of supervisors, odd-numbered ones don't | 04:19 |
| pleia2 | winnars!! \o/ | 04:23 |
| DonkeyHotei | you're in district 6 iirc | 04:25 |
| pleia2 | yep | 04:25 |
| DonkeyHotei | 7 for me | 04:25 |
| pleia2 | longer ballot for me :( | 04:25 |
| DonkeyHotei | yes | 04:25 |
| DonkeyHotei | when that height limit thing went on the ballot, expected voter turnout was low enough to dictate that my entire precinct be vote by mail only, and i worked a different precinct still in district 7 | 04:28 |
| DonkeyHotei | first voter that day was the outgoing supervisor | 04:29 |
| DonkeyHotei | in that precinct, i saw on the roster a lot of voters registered as members of the party of george wallace, very conservative neighborhood, and all the voters who ran into each other seemed to know each other | 04:30 |
| DonkeyHotei | republicans still outnumbered democrats as far as i could tell, and i saw some instances of households where the husband was a democrat and the wife was republican | 04:32 |
| OERIAS | the republicans are the real terrorist of this country | 04:40 |
| pleia2 | oops, political talk | 04:40 |
| DonkeyHotei | you started it | 04:40 |
| pleia2 | yeah, "oops" :) | 04:41 |
| DonkeyHotei | [Tue 2014-10-07 09:09:25 PM PDT] <pleia2> now I'm hearing prop 46 propaganda | 04:41 |
| pleia2 | so the weather is nice this evening | 04:41 |
| DonkeyHotei | it's political weather! | 04:41 |
| pleia2 | haha, no no | 04:42 |
| DonkeyHotei | I'm in sacto and it really is kinda nice now | 04:42 |
| pleia2 | 60ish here | 04:42 |
| nhaines | Politically? | 04:43 |
| DonkeyHotei | i go back to sf tomorrow | 04:43 |
| pleia2 | supposed to go up to 90 again this weekend :( | 04:43 |
| DonkeyHotei | nhaines: no, politics here is worse than sf | 04:43 |
| DonkeyHotei | …chat death… | 04:55 |

| pleia2 | the police only came to one of my ubuntu release parties | 17:51 |
| pleia2 | elky: you guys coming out to the ubuntu hour tonight? I miss you <3 | 22:50 |
| elky | pleia2: i had dental stuff done yesterday, not up to it sadly. i miss you too :) | 22:50 |
| pleia2 | elky: that doesn't sound like fun, hope you feel better | 22:51 |
| elky | meanwhile, my boxes finally arrived :D | 22:51 |
| pleia2 | \o/ | 22:51 |
| bkerensa | pleia2: random but do you have window treatment? We got this Low E window treatment that tints the windows and it drastically reduced heat | 23:12 |
| pleia2 | bkerensa: nope, it's against the HOA | 23:14 |
| bkerensa | LOL | 23:14 |
| bkerensa | wow | 23:14 |
| bkerensa | Never ever ever will I live in a place that has a HOA | 23:14 |
| pleia2 | our windows can't be tinted and have to have white shades | 23:14 |
| bkerensa | :P | 23:14 |
| bkerensa | Hah | 23:15 |
| pleia2 | it's a highrise, they all have them | 23:15 |
| bkerensa | white shades even? | 23:15 |
| bkerensa | because someone might notice a difference? | 23:15 |
| bkerensa | :P | 23:15 |
| pleia2 | we're in a historic district, so HOA rules have to line up with that | 23:15 |
| bkerensa | ahh | 23:16 |
| akk | Wow, that's pretty severe. | 23:16 |
| akk | We have an HOA but it's a super low-key one. | 23:17 |
| akk | $25/year fee which goes toward food at the annual picnic. :) | 23:17 |
| pleia2 | ours is like $650/mo | 23:17 |
| akk | Ouch! | 23:17 |
| pleia2 | but, highrise :) | 23:17 |
| pleia2 | there's a whole building to take care of, operating budget is over a million | 23:18 |
| akk | Seriously $650/mo? That's more than rent in a lot of places. | 23:18 |
| pleia2 | sure is! | 23:18 |
| pleia2 | rent in this building starts at around $2400/mo for a studio on a low floor :\ | 23:18 |
| pleia2 | ah san francisco | 23:18 |
| pleia2 | no rent control here and we bought our place, so pay less than a renter would | 23:19 |
| pleia2 | here == our building; lots of places in SF do have rent control | 23:20 |
| nhaines | TIL if I move to San Francisco my new home will be a refrigerator box. | 23:24 |
| bkerensa | akk: Thats over half my rent | 23:50 |
| bkerensa | craziness | 23:50 |
| bkerensa | pleia2: now would be a good time to sell even :) I hear hedge funds are concerned about dat tech bubble 2.0 | 23:51 |
| bkerensa | if it pops... boy is SF housing values going to hurt | 23:51 |
