[01:27] <davef> Welp, Christmas is going to be expensive this year. Both kids want expensive things. I'm going to let them have what they want, they rarely (if ever) ask for anything.
[01:27] <daftykins> :O what are they after?
[01:27] <davef> Eldest wants a Nintendo Switch
[01:28] <davef> My youngest has asked for something called a Dash Robot
[01:28] <daftykins> hmm
[01:28] <davef> I've been looking at it, it's programmable, looks like it uses Scratch
[01:29] <daftykins> funky
[01:29] <davef> https://www.makewonder.com/apps/blockly/
[01:29] <davef> Hey, if it kickstarts her programming, I'm all for it.
[01:32] <davef> And shock horror of horrors, I actually have a morning commute tomorrow.
[01:33] <daftykins> !
[01:33] <daftykins> how far?
[01:34] <davef> I'm going to the studio
[01:34] <davef> About an hour by public transit
[01:34] <daftykins> but... other people! D:
[01:38] <davef> lol
[01:39] <davef> I'm at that point where I need to see other people
[01:39] <davef> I need a social life again
[01:40] <daftykins> i'm feeling a bit iffy about pool nights now, exposure!
[01:42] <davef> I've done my trip to the UK, I got a taste of no restrictions while I was there. I need to keep that.
[02:01] <davef> This has to be a joke, right? https://twitter.com/ariadneconill/status/1468295596624728072/photo/1
[02:02] <daftykins> must be
[02:09] <daftykins> that person has quite some hate for Dave
[02:17] <daftykins> i think it's somewhere on - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PqWjq2SdzpI
[02:18] <daftykins> comments appear a bit iffy here too: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PqWjq2SdzpI&lc=Ugygh_HfMmgQ3aOXWPN4AaABAg
[02:21] <daftykins> oh i just found it
[02:21] <davef> I just want to know the context
[02:21] <daftykins> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PqWjq2SdzpI&lc=UgwFYyE8lw0hQzBQj154AaABAg
[02:21] <daftykins> just a response to a saddo
[02:26] <davef> Yeah, what, indeed. That comment doesn't appear to be in jest. He's clearly not as informed as he believes.
[02:30] <daftykins> weird that my comment links don't work, ho-hum
[02:31] <daftykins> hey i just reloaded and it's goneski
[02:32] <daftykins> yep whole thing purged now
[02:37] <daftykins> nevermind it's my own weird link, it somehow hides that single comment
[13:10] <davef> Oof, I have NOT missed the morning commute
[17:42] <daftykins> davef: there were people and there was traffic, right?
[17:44] <zxmpi> roads here seem as busy as pre covid. even though people are supposed to be working from home where possible
[19:04] <davef> Yeah, it was busy on the bus and metro
