[12:35] morning [12:40] <_stink_> yo [12:41] momma? [12:49] <_stink_> i'm not yo momma! [12:51] <_stink_> i'm discovering that as one adds kids and as those kids get older, there's a tipping point where more dirty dishes are generated than can be cleaned in one dishwasher load per day [12:51] <_stink_> so even if i unload/load/run overnight without fail [12:52] <_stink_> there is still a growing pile on the counter [12:52] <_stink_> my #firstworldproblems reaction is to conclude that i need a bigger dishwasher [12:52] _stink_: You just need to run it after each meal [13:20] _stink_: You need two dishwashers [13:20] lol. [13:20] just remove the cabinets that would be used for dishes and install a new dishwasher [13:20] problem: solved. [13:20] reuse your dishes. [13:21] you don't need clean ones every meal. [13:22] Use paper plates and say a big FU to the environment. [13:23] or plastic plates [13:23] <_stink_> haha [13:24] <_stink_> disposable plastic plates are the best answer [13:26] <_stink_> Glad markets these 'take and toss' plastic food containers [13:26] <_stink_> mostly for kids i think [13:26] <_stink_> they are just regular plastic containers, marketed as 'use once, throw away' [13:26] <_stink_> makes me very sad [13:41] me too. [13:41] we throw very little away [13:41] can get away with taking out the garbage once a month. [13:42] jrwren: Wow [13:42] Get a cat. That'll change things. :) [13:43] cmaloney: no way [13:43] <_stink_> once we are done with diapers i hope we have a lot less [13:43] <_stink_> er well, we will have a lot less [13:43] _stink_: That'll likely be in 2020 [13:43] ;) [13:44] <_stink_> at this rate you aren't far off [13:44] recycling and compost gets taken out much more often, if that subdues your surprise :) [13:44] sometimes recycling gets filled with amazon cardboard in mere days [13:44] jrwren: I wish they took more as recycling [13:44] cmaloney: AA takes a lot [13:44] they let us leave the boxes out of the recycling bin [13:45] and we bought the larger recycling roller bin [13:45] vs the little box [13:45] we fill that every week :/ [13:45] 2 bins of mixed recycling plus 5 bags/bundles of cardboard and paper products weekly. [13:46] http://www.smithsdisposal.net/Services/index.html the red one is the recycling bin we had to buy [13:52] oh yeah. AA gives everyone the giant roller bins, becuase a giant truck with mech arm comes and lifts the big roller bins [13:52] ours are bigger than that, or that woman is 7' tall [13:52] for recycling? /me is jealous [13:54] yeah, apparnelty AA is our little sancuary of hippie ideals. :) [13:57] \o/ trash, recycle, and compost bins ftw http://www.a2gov.org/departments/field-operations/trash-recycling/Pages/default.aspx [14:05] Wait, you send your compost out? [14:06] brousch: yes. [14:06] brousch: city takes it, puts it all together, then gives folks opportunity to come pick it back up when it is black gold. [14:06] its a nice service. [14:06] but it better be for what I pay in taxes. [14:09] That is nice. We have a yard waste service for Wyoming [14:11] brousch: so... this is like that, and I think it started that way [14:11] but it expanded. [14:12] about a year ago they said, "go ahead and throw animal food waste in there too." [14:12] because before vegetable scraps were ok, but animal was not [14:12] now they take it all. [14:12] vegetable kitchen scraps aren't much different from yard waste anyway [14:13] true [14:13] animal gets stinky though [14:33] that is why the compost is outside :) [15:53] <_stink_> jrwren: i'm reusing a plate for lunch today in your honor [16:00] wait, did jrwren become the dirty hippy in my absence? [16:03] * brousch sniffs him [16:04] hahahaha, my flask-api PR from Mar 24, 2014 merged today. [16:04] greg-g: yes, I am a dirty hippy. [16:05] :) [16:05] greg-g: I garden. I compost. cut my grass with a mechanical that I got from cscheib so I don't have to buy gas. [16:05] nice! [16:05] i tear up my lawn to grow veggies [16:06] <_stink_> <3 [16:06] <_stink_> i am slowly replacing my lawn too [16:06] <_stink_> jrwren: any complaints about the mechanical mower? [16:06] <_stink_> i have heard you have to be more diligent [16:06] <_stink_> as it doesn't handle long grass well [16:07] _stink_: at that point get a scythe [16:07] I've always wanted one [16:08] _stink_: yes, exactly. this time of year, every 4-5 days. 7 is too long [16:08] _stink_: its a great workout too. [16:08] _stink_: so, I like that part, cuz I've not been working otu [16:09] greg-g: I do have a scythe like thing. I used it a couple days ago because the mech cutter doesn't do mass dandylions very well [16:09] neat! [16:09] <_stink_> jrwren: ok thanks. something to consider [16:09] http://www.amazon.com/Truper-30307-Serrated-Sharpened-30-Inch/dp/B002UDKY88/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1431101389&sr=8-1&keywords=weed+cutter [16:10] waving this thing around is FUN [16:11] <_stink_> ooo look at all those options of blades [16:11] <_stink_> makes me want to go... marauding [16:13] <_stink_> jrwren: do you have to sharpen the blades on the mower often? [16:16] _stink_: I never have. [16:16] _stink_: I think it adds to my workout :) [16:16] <_stink_> haha [16:16] it's like setting it on HARD [16:53] I wish I could cut our grass with our mechanical mower [16:54] unfortunately it grows like crazy [16:55] And our yard is crazy-hilly. [16:55] Previous owners ran a greyhound rescue or some shit [16:55] so lots of ruts [16:59] jrwren: The person who merged your flask-api PR is a member of the GRPUG [16:59] It is all connected! [16:59] brousch: jrwren very cool on the flask pr [17:02] I like my plug-in electric lawn mower and weed whacker [17:03] No gas, light enough to hang on the wall [17:13] i was more amused by teh flask-api pr being 13mo old [17:16] I was amused by Jace saying he was taking over maintenance of flask-api because the author lacked time, and now see he is cleaning up old stuff [17:20] heh [18:52] I'm always confused when people like this follow me on Twitter https://twitter.com/DrPhiltill [18:53] He's a planetary scientist at NASA who is followed by David Brin [18:53] well he's got a lovely script to get to 39k follows [18:53] That seems reasonable for an actual rocket scientist [18:53] I don't think he's picked out by hand 39,000 people to follow [18:54] brousch: for him to follow? [18:54] he's followed by 43k [18:54] But what could I possibly be doing that he cares about? [18:54] who knows, it's a script [18:54] you did some combination of something that hit an api call [18:55] you were mentioned, or on a 'recent posts' page, or who knows [18:55] Even 1 of 39,000 is elite [19:00] brousch: it happened to me on instagram recently, I followed one musician, so another (less well known) followed me
