01:03 DaemonFC; MinceR, The NH35A in my Pro Diver seems to be changing how it behaves the longer it runs.
01:03 DaemonFC; In any event, I doubt if I use it for 4 years, it will lose 15 minutes a day like those Rolex watches that guy bought.
01:03 DaemonFC; And if it does, I won't be grinding my teeth because $10,000 watch they want $700 to fix.
01:04 MinceR; :>
01:05 DaemonFC; $29 for the whole watch, you just throw it away and get a new watch if it starts seriously malfunctioning.
01:05 DaemonFC; You won't even have to feel particularly bad about it.
01:05 DaemonFC; The Rolex seems to be the sunk cost fallacy.
01:05 DaemonFC; "I made a huge mistake and now I have to throw more money to keep it going."
01:05 MinceR; the rolex is a bunch of fallacies in one
01:09 DaemonFC; schestowitz[TR2], Now they're boasting on Facebook that their new Submariner can go 4,926 feet underwater.
01:09 DaemonFC; Which is beyond the crush depth of those titanium-hull Russian submarines.
01:10 DaemonFC; While they're bullshitting us, why don't they just add a little more and claim that it can go a full mile underwater.
01:11 DaemonFC; A watch can survive 4,926 feet underwater, but it gets dirt in the gears that need to be cleaned out by ultrasonic bath during its four year servicing ($700). Interesting.
01:11 DaemonFC; MinceR, ^
01:11 DaemonFC; If it's sealed that well, how would any dirt get inside the movement?
01:12 MinceR; :>
01:13 DaemonFC; I can understand why they might need to re-lubricate the gears, but....
01:14 DaemonFC; A quality mechanical movement shouldn't be expected to become so inaccurate that it loses 15 minutes a day after only 4 years without a $700 trip to the service center.
01:15 DaemonFC; Even cheap ones often go decades without any servicing before they start losing time to any sort of annoying degree.
01:15 DaemonFC; Guessing that their refusal to modernize their manufacturing methodology is to blame.
01:16 DaemonFC; Even the NH35A could be more accurate if they properly calibrated them at the factory, but part of the reason they're so cheap is they just slap them in a watch and send them out.
01:17 DaemonFC; It takes time to properly calibrate a watch movement. If you are fine with each one having a personality and none of them being quite right, you can mass produce, like the Seiko 5 or the Invicta Pro Diver.
01:18 DaemonFC; I wonder how much of the accuracy of the Grand Seiko is that they wear them in and then calibrate them at the factory before they go out.

01:39 DaemonFC; There's no "damage" to the watch if you set the date between 9 P and 4 A, but the date window won't work right until you go back and fix it.
01:39 DaemonFC; The problem is that Invicta didn't include the manual that mentions this. You have to find it online.
01:40 DaemonFC; There's a lot of stupid people out there who won't ever go try to figure out how to set this so that it works properly and will just say they got a defective watch.
01:40 DaemonFC; There was one guy that did a video review on Amazon saying he got one with a "bad crown that wouldn't move" because he was turning the crown the wrong way.
01:40 DaemonFC; Another one complained about water inside the watch after jumping into a swimming pool with the crown open.
01:40 DaemonFC; MinceR, There's a lot of stupid people.
01:41 DaemonFC; Designing products that are easier to use to account for how stupid people are out there is one way to deal with it, I guess.

01:42 DaemonFC; Instead of just assuming the watch was broken, I consulted the troubleshooting guide that told me exactly what I did wrong.
01:42 DaemonFC; Now I know exactly how to use and set the watch.
01:43 DaemonFC; I might have had one with a date window before, I just can't remember. I found a watch similar to this in the 90s, but I can't recall it much better than that.
01:43 DaemonFC; Don't know what brand it was.
01:43 DaemonFC; Even as a kid, "Rolex" would have stood out, so it was probably some cheap mall watch.

02:25 DaemonFC; MinceR, I had a rebate for TGI Fridays earlier, so we went there and I got a steak. The steak was okay, except they wanted to serve it with mashed potatoes and broccoli.
02:26 DaemonFC; I asked for fries and a house salad instead (no baked potatoes). I said, "Mashed potatoes with a steak is okay I suppose, but broccoli with steak is just downright unnatural.
02:26 DaemonFC; Who eats broccoli with steak? Just bring me a starter salad with honey mustard.
02:27 DaemonFC; MinceR, So, I looked into those Russian wristwatches.
02:27 DaemonFC; The specifications actually are not that great.
02:27 DaemonFC; They sell them to the military and they use them in the space program too, they claim (Vostok).
02:28 DaemonFC; But the specifications for the mechanical movement are actually comically bad.
02:29 DaemonFC; No hacking, 18,600 beats per hour. 30 hour reserve. Accuracy listed is +/- 60 seconds per day.
02:29 DaemonFC; That's terrible!
02:30 DaemonFC; Even a very basic Seiko movement that they slap in the Seiko 5 and Invicta Pro Diver, the NH35A is listed as hacking, 21,600 beats per hour, 41 hour reserve, and accuracy of +/- 12 seconds per day.
02:30 DaemonFC; And that's basically the entry level movement that they just slap in there uncalibrated and call it a day.
02:31 DaemonFC; The Russians make their watches as badly as anything else I guess.
02:31 DaemonFC; They can't even just straight up blindly copy Japanese and Swiss movements that have been on the market for decades and can be mass produced even in China, Malaysia, or Thailand.
02:32 DaemonFC; The movements are original to Russia, and they are not well designed.
02:32 DaemonFC; The Seiko 6309A (from the early 80s) is better than one of these.
02:33 DaemonFC; When you're talking about potentially losing or gaining up to 30 minutes on your wristwatch per month, and you're in a country where everything is basically stolen from someone else anyway, why not just clone a watch that works better too?
02:34 DaemonFC; They should just steal the NH35A and make them in Russia. It's not a terribly high precision movement, but it's a lot better than what you'll get in a Vostok diving watch today.
02:34 MinceR; "comically bad" is the way russia rolls
02:35 DaemonFC; I started looking at Vostok because someone mentioned them in /r/watches or whatever that subreddit is called.
02:35 DaemonFC; I can't believe that there's an international market for these.
02:36 DaemonFC; I get with the sanctions on Russia and everything good being hard to import why people in Russia might buy one.
02:36 DaemonFC; But why would Americans when you can get a better watch for $30?

02:48 DaemonFC; Yeah, I let gas escape sometimes. It's usually worse after Mexican food.

02:55 schestowitz[TR]; my sister told me yesterday her employer now has "hiring freeze"
02:55 schestowitz[TR]; I tolds her that meant they bring down headcount
02:55 DaemonFC; In B5, that's what the Psi Corps did to turn Talia Winters into a spy and there was a code phrase that would destroy the false personality and make the real one come back.
02:56 schestowitz[TR]; her boss just got fired

02:58 DaemonFC; The Biden Administration refusing to ban TikTok and instead coming to a deal where they "claim" they erased your info from places the Chinese govt has it, and put it on Oracle servers is bad even if Bytedance is telling the truth.
02:58 DaemonFC; And they probably aren't.
02:58 DaemonFC; If they put it on Oracle servers, that just means that it's where the US government has planted their backdoors, and you still have no guarantee they aren't sending your data to the Chinese Communist Party too.

06:01 DaemonFC; <schestowitz[TR]> that's because apple is reportedly their largest advertiser
06:01 DaemonFC; <schestowitz[TR]> so if Apple leaves, it will alarm other advertisers
06:01 DaemonFC; <schestowitz[TR]> he need to keep apple on board at all costs
06:01 DaemonFC; I'm hearing he cut deals with other advertisers too, but the "ad match" (free ads with a certain spend) is proportional to the spending.
06:02 DaemonFC; schestowitz[TR], Yes, the Walmart employee discount pretty much lets them corner the market on your shopping.
06:03 DaemonFC; When they can give you 15% off and Amazon and the grocery stores won't, you don't shop anywhere else.
06:05 DaemonFC; schestowitz[TR], So I was reading Rolex's website.
06:06 DaemonFC; They brag about "sponsoring" watchmaking schools, by donating Rolex watches to them so that when they graduate, they know all about repairing Rolex watches.
06:06 *GNUmoon has quit (Ping timeout: 255 seconds)
06:06 DaemonFC; Seems to me this is like Microsoft dumping their software in "education", calling it "philanthropic", and then they graduate and only know Microsoft products.
06:07 DaemonFC; Repairing Rolex watches seems to me to be the real cash cow.
06:07 DaemonFC; If you buy just one Rolex, you're going to have to spend almost $8,000 keeping it working to specification over the next 40 years.
06:07 *GNUmoon (~GNUmoon@gateway/tor-sasl/gnumoon) has joined #techrights
06:08 DaemonFC; So you might hand it down to your children or grandchildren, after you bought it for $15,000 and then put another $8,000 into "services" which are a glofied way of saying changing out a few springs and gears, oiling it, and adjusting the timing of the movement every so often.
06:08 DaemonFC; So the $8,000 is just pure profit for Rolex and their dealers.
06:09 DaemonFC; Then when they get it, they have a watch that they're going to have to spend an outrageous amount of money on if they want it to work.
06:09 DaemonFC; Seems more like a gypsy curse than a family heirloom.
06:09 DaemonFC; MinceR, ^
06:10 DaemonFC; If you like mechanical movements, there's a lot of them that are tough, reasonably accurate, and won't break the bank.
06:10 DaemonFC; None of them are a Rolex.
06:11 DaemonFC; The Russian watches are the lulziest thing I've seen though. They're not particularly expensive as watches go, but I would never pay $150 for something that's amazingly shittier than a $30 mall watch.
06:11 DaemonFC; XRevan86, Get it together, man!
06:12 DaemonFC; Does your country have no pride in its work?
06:12 DaemonFC; I've never driven a Russian car but I hear they're pretty bad too, even before the sanctions meant they were ripping out what safety features they had and the air conditioner and still only able to produce several thousand a year.
06:13 DaemonFC; Russian mechanics probably won't be hurting for business anytime soon.
06:14 DaemonFC; When the economy can't even produce 9,000 cars in a country with 146 million people in it, you have problems.
06:14 DaemonFC; I don't think Putin can project "total normalcy" in Moscow even if we're hearing that.
06:14 DaemonFC; If anything, not enough people have had their cars break down for the last time yet that there's a lot of screaming, I suppose.
06:16 DaemonFC; MinceR, China: A million cases of COVID in the last 3 months is zero covid.
06:16 DaemonFC; Russia: "Normalcy in Moscow": Beat, arrest, and imprison any complainers.
06:16 DaemonFC; Problem solved.
06:18 DaemonFC; Fascists, and their kissing cousins, the "Conservatives", always have such simple and elegant answers for everything. Like how being gay is a choice. Some people living in countries where it's an instant beheading just woke up one morning and decided to risk it to fuck other men.

23:11 DaemonFC; I commented:
23:12 DaemonFC; You can give these people 50 bars of 24 karat gold for every day they go without murdering or raping someone and 90% of them would still **** it up.
23:12 DaemonFC; It's a shame that the judges aren't brilliant enough to have figured it out after being on the bench for years.
23:12 DaemonFC; Have fun when the SAFE-T Act makes it even worse. For everyone who voted for Pritzker, may all of the madness and mayhem happen in your front lawn.
23:17 DaemonFC; Judges give these people soft sentences, and look at the people they give them to. They're in violation of the sentence less than 3 hours after it begins, and then when the stupid ankle monitor starts beeping and they probably wouldn't be in much trouble if they just came back to the probation dept, they think everything goes away if they just cut the thing off.

23:34 DaemonFC; One thing going on in Waukegan that I'm not really fond of is the City Council is already going over how best to waste the tax revenue of bringing in a marijuana dispensary and sticking it next to the casino they're already spending in their minds.
23:34 DaemonFC; It never occurs to them to spend less money and then you won't need dope and gambling and all of the criminals it attracts.
23:34 DaemonFC; But what's worse is they're not even going to spend it on the potholes. They're talking about "social justice". Ruh roh.
23:35 AdmFubar; I guess they don't really want to pay apple to get your data... what cheapscapes! https://it.slashdot.org/story/22/12/08/2140213/fbi-calls-apples-expansion-of-end-to-end-encryption-deeply-concerning

23:37 DaemonFC; One of the most fucking retarded things a government official ever told me was when my probation officer made me surrender my FOID card and said "You can't buy a gun without a FOID Card.". I quipped, "Guess that explains Chicago.".
23:37 DaemonFC; What I wanted to say was, "You dumb bitch! You can buy anything you have money for, which is where all of these fully automatic rifles are coming from that were never legal to begin with.".
23:37 DaemonFC; But that might have been pushing it a little bit.
23:38 DaemonFC; Only a true bunch of idiots could create a state like California, the worst in the country.
23:39 DaemonFC; They can't beg, borrow, or steal enough electricity to run the 6% marketshare of EVs they have now, they're closing more power plants as we speak, while they have rolling blackouts.
23:39 DaemonFC; And they also doubled the limit for "petty theft" and wonder why criminals walk into stores with calculators to make sure they don't leave with more than $950 each in stolen merchandise.
23:39 DaemonFC; And why Walmart and others are closing stores because they can't run them at a profit.
23:39 DaemonFC; And you might say great, Walmart leaves.
23:40 DaemonFC; Well, nobody else is going to be stupid enough to locate there if Walmart gives up because they're just going to have the same problem and no way to sink the losses with profits somewhere else.
23:40 DaemonFC; So then you get an expanding grocery desert.
23:41 DaemonFC; mjg59_ and his ilk have fucked the state so horribly, that 44% of San Francisco residents plan to leave in the next three years according to a survey.
23:41 DaemonFC; Because it's becoming intolerable and there's no jobs growth there anymore, and it's ridiculously overpriced and full of crime because it goes totally unpunished.
23:43 DaemonFC; And in the middle of the state falling apart around them, they tax their residents to provide abortions to women in other states, complete with airline tickets.
23:43 DaemonFC; At least Illinois _only_ taxes me to fund abortions for the degenerates with a residence in Illinois.
23:44 DaemonFC; The only real argument in favor of abortion is that most of the people getting them cannot be trusted with a child.
23:44 DaemonFC; And that's a good argument. That's a solid argument.
23:46 DaemonFC; Why do Republicans always say, about Immigration, "Let's take care of the people who are already here before we start importing a bigger mess." but then they're fine with the bigger mess that will result from abortion bans?
23:46 DaemonFC; Because their other quote is "You're never going to Make America Great Again with Someone Else's Babies.". (The ones that aren't white.)
