01:13 TR Bot; Undergrounding - Wikipedia

01:13 schestowitz; "In civil engineering, undergrounding is the replacement of overhead cables providing electrical power or telecommunications, with underground cables. It demonstrates the higher technology in developed countries for fire prevention and to make the power lines less susceptible to outages during high wind thunderstorms or heavy snow or ice storms. An added benefit of undergrounding is the aesthetic quality of the landscape without the powerlines.

01:13 schestowitz; Undergrounding can increase the initial costs of electric power transmission and distribution but may decrease operational costs over the lifetime of the cables."

01:13 schestowitz; MinceR: does budapest have it underground?

01:13 MinceR; some of them are underground, some of them aren't

01:14 MinceR; i think most of the non-high-voltage lines are underground here

01:17 schestowitz; "In Germany, 73% of the medium voltage cables are underground and 87% of low voltage cables are underground. The high percentage of underground cables contributes to the very high grid reliability (SAIDI < 20).[20] In comparison, the SAIDI value (minutes without electricity per year) in the Netherlands is about 30, and in the UK it is about 70."

01:18 schestowitz; MinceR: lots of outages lately around the world

03:47 Ariadne; schestowitz-TR: there will be a brief outage (less than 3 minutes hopefully) as i replace a switch with one that is more energy efficient, in about 30 minutes, and a second brief outage (less than 5 minutes hopefully) as i replace an internal switch with one that is more energy efficient (this one connecting the techrights machine to its storage, so i will have to pause the machine)

03:48 Ariadne; correction, looks like it will be 45 minutes before i get there because BART is delayed

03:48 DaemonFC; LOL

03:48 DaemonFC; Yeah, with everything Chicago fucked up royally, it manages to have nice public transit, strangely enough.

03:49 *rianne has quit (Ping timeout: 2m30s)

03:49 Ariadne; yeah i have more sense than to drive in the city

03:49 DaemonFC; We take the Metra whenever we have to go into the city.

03:50 Ariadne; especially because the place where the servers are is in a part of SF where if you park your car on the street, it will be on blocks

03:50 Ariadne; when you walk back out

03:50 DaemonFC; They asked me to fill out a survey recently. I said I was mostly satisfied, but I felt they needed to crack down on fare evasion.

03:50 Ariadne; fare evasion is only right

03:51 Ariadne; i already pay for this shit with taxes

03:51 DaemonFC; Either with CTA style turnstiles and Ventra (controlled entry) or by European proof of fare system where the fine/jail time for being caught without a ticket is so horrible that nobody tries.

03:51 DaemonFC; CTA is pretty harsh on turnstile jumpers.

03:52 MinceR; Confucius say: Man who go through turnstile sideways, going to Bangkok.

03:52 DaemonFC; But man who stand on toilet high on pot.

4 AM, December 19

04:05 MinceR; :)

04:05 DaemonFC; The Democrats apparently pulled an all-nighter and appointed 41 of Biden's nominees.

04:06 DaemonFC; I think the goal, since the Supreme Court itself is off limits for a while, should be to just leave no vacancy behind on any of the lower courts and spam the Supreme Court with a bunch of liberal lower court rulings that are too numerous for them to hear all of.

04:06 DaemonFC; I mean, it's what I would do given the hand to play.

04:07 DaemonFC; The Supreme Court gets to hear maybe 1.5% of what ends up in federal court.

04:07 DaemonFC; So it really doesn't have the last word in many cases.

04:08 DaemonFC; It's not exactly the crown jewel when you look at it that way.

04:14 DaemonFC; MinceR, Including Rahm Emanuel to be ambassador to Japan.

04:14 DaemonFC; Well, he can only give them half a middle finger.

04:14 DaemonFC; So less chance of an incident.

04:57 TR Bot; Democrats don't care about us either : LateStageCapitalism

04:57 DaemonFC; Well, what was holding Trump back was that he was doling out protection from offshore drilling to red states as an election stunt.

04:58 DaemonFC; Eventually, years from now, when Biden is long gone, the drilling in the Gulf that he approved will cause another oil spill, and well, he got his bribes, so what does he care?

18:32 DaemonFC; I realized what they were doing. They tried selling it as a "feature". Like, it could see the size of the Keurig logo and figure out whether you were brewing a cup or a carafe of coffee.

18:32 DaemonFC; But there was no need to trademark that.

18:32 *inky_ has quit (Ping timeout: 256 seconds)

18:32 DaemonFC; What they were doing was making it so nobody could copy the icon that it was looking for, so it would refuse to work at all if you used a physically compatible coffee pod.

18:33 DaemonFC; And many of the alternative pods use far less non-biodegradable mass.

18:33 DaemonFC; Gordon's Food Service sells theirs in bulk and it's just a lid along with a filter full of coffee. There's no hard plastic at all in the pod.

18:34 DaemonFC; And those never worked with the K 2.0. The 2.0 machines were a total disaster and it wasn't long before they all got clearanced out.

18:34 DaemonFC; They blew up right in Keurig's face. And the whole thing came about when Keurig's patent on the coffee pod expired, because trademarks on the logo that tells it to brew don't expire like patents do.

18:35 DaemonFC; So they were trying to extend their monopoly using whatever part of the law they could in order to keep out competitors who drive prices down.

18:36 DaemonFC; The market refusal of the K 2.0 machines was an unexpected success against DRM. But people put up with behavior like this in an iPhone. Why?

18:37 DaemonFC; It's so expensive to develop software for any of Apple's products that unless you already have a Mac laying around that's new enough and don't mind wasting $100 per year to keep your developer account current, there's no way you think about developing freeware.

18:37 schestowitz__[TR]; Apple is a bubble

18:37 schestowitz__[TR]; and it's not just Apple

18:37 DaemonFC; F-Droid's model obviously doesn't work this way at all.

18:38 DaemonFC; The iPhone is pretty much a meme.

18:38 DaemonFC; And we're in the higher points of the bubble at this point because they're getting so ungodly expensive that they're losing marketshare.

18:39 DaemonFC; They say they're fine with that, and maybe they are. Selling $2,000 phones that cost them $200 to produce to 70% of the people who would buy them at a lower price is effectively being paid to produce less.

18:39 DaemonFC; But at some point, they drive so much of the market over to Android that developers no longer see the economic incentives of having a huge base of customers on the iPhone.

19:28 DaemonFC; It's probably cheaper for Toyota to use these "anytime upgrades" to segment the market rather than guess wrong about supply and demand for each possible feature combination and have remaining inventory that needs marked down.

23:25 DaemonFC; My parents had an entire drawer full of them when I was growing up. I mean, when nobody else is at home it's not like they can stop you from going into their bedroom and opening up all the drawers to see what's in them.

23:25 DaemonFC; So I opened that one up once and went "Oh, sick!" and slammed it shut and washed my hands.

23:26 SomeH4x0r; a lock on the bedroom door would help

23:27 schestowitz-TR; DaemonFC: very common problem

23:27 schestowitz-TR; in the digital age it can be different

23:27 schestowitz-TR; remember in the old days you has physical stashes of things

23:27 DaemonFC; They had locks, but they were those really cheap ones you could pop open with a screwdriver.
