[21:10:09] & elcasey howdy, Naemuti, how you doing?
[21:10:35] & elcasey been better, but been much, much worse :P
[21:10:43] & elcasey so I am calling it "great" all told
[21:11:05] & elcasey it does fall short of fantastic, though
[21:13:06] & elcasey had a week off work, a great weekend, and I did almost nothing today at work so it really is not bad at all
[21:17:36] & elcasey Naemuti: any new tunes you found that are good?
[21:22:54] & elcasey yeah that's mostly what I do. Or just SiriusXM because I like the DJs
[21:50:01] & elcasey Naemuti: testing it now!
[21:50:33] & elcasey was expecting Art Bell for a second :P
[21:52:34] & elcasey Naemuti: nicely 90s alternative vibe (to me anyway)
[21:53:44] & elcasey definitely always been more of a heavy rocker but I really dug like Porno For Pyros and Cracker back then
[21:53:53] & elcasey loads more, too, but I have forgotten most of it
[21:54:25] & elcasey and I was mad for the old Stone Temple Pilots
[21:54:45] & elcasey oh that is going back
[21:54:53] & elcasey this is good! cheers!
[21:55:10] & elcasey NoCode: sup guy
[21:56:26] & elcasey Naemuti: haha! I got close with Pearl Jam - Ten but my Dad was just like "don't turn it up around your mother'
[21:56:51] & elcasey how's work going?
[21:57:10] & elcasey I like the Stones song Monkey Man! :P
[21:57:15] & elcasey oh that is what it is haha
[21:57:29] & elcasey saw this live in 97
[21:57:39] & elcasey obviously not on the Let It Bleed tour haha
[21:58:39] & elcasey I hate when they put the remaster date and not the original date, like this song is not from f'ing 2019 ...
[21:58:42] & elcasey it's like 1973 or something
[21:59:11] & elcasey FLA is ... not great. But I'm doing ok!
[21:59:42] & elcasey NoCode: I just had a week off and then did 3 days at my miniature wargaming convention so I've had a good 10 days!
[22:00:24] & elcasey https://postimg.cc/gallery/dG1Q29f - absolutely annihilated the French on Saturday morning :D
[22:00:40] & elcasey lol nah we don't bet on the games xD
[22:03:06] & elcasey NoCode: he is pretty good! always bitching about work but welcome to the club haha
[22:03:33] & elcasey NoCode: and yeah this is historical wargaming, not like Warhammer, so there is no cash tournaments or stuff like that (and that ain't my scene)
[22:04:42] & elcasey oh! well you weren't wrong! I went to SELL a ton of stuff!
[22:04:52] & elcasey all WW2 stuff, sealed kits ... nobody was interested
[22:05:05] & elcasey so I "made" $40 but I'm sure I sold them at a loss (not much at least)
[22:05:50] & elcasey all the proper vendors, like actual shops, were selling this shit at 50% off and I was like hang on, this ain't what I came for, so I didn't bother setting up shop in the flea market
[22:06:09] & elcasey I sold $40, I spent $40 ... even wash, I guess. Which is nuts, I usually spend hundreds
[22:06:40] & elcasey classic
[22:06:54] & elcasey I used to be when I was in my teens ... 30yrs ago >_>
[22:06:58] & elcasey it was awesome back then
[22:07:44] & elcasey the last of the good times, as far as I'm concerned anyway (when it comes to Warhammer)
[22:08:23] & elcasey hehe man I MISS THE SHIT OUTTA MY HOBBY ROOM
[22:08:35] & elcasey house is under contract, closing late May
[22:09:20] & elcasey once it sells I will rent a house in my hometown (or the area, big place) and then I get my proper nerd on again
[22:09:31] & elcasey but now I'm old so it will be Napoleonics instead of Space Marines :P
[22:10:02] & elcasey yeah. living with them now. driving me off my nut.
[22:10:17] & elcasey I can't live in 120sqft with old people :P
[22:10:39] & elcasey it's helping THEM, which is what matters. I do not want to be here. But I am a good son, I am doing my duty.
[22:10:59] & elcasey and they were fantastic parents, so they deserve it
[22:12:20] & elcasey I can, and will, bitch about the whole situation. Repeatedly. But I gotta keep reminding myself how fortunate I am to have had such good parents. A hell of a lot of people don't get that :(
[22:13:39] & elcasey NoCode: and all this got started with some scares. We thought my Dad had had a stroke (he didn't). But my mom's beaten cancer twice. And she wants me near. So it's the least I can do. They're just old, they need help sometimes. I need to be here for that.
[22:14:33] & elcasey even though I'm not "allowed" to live here per my company :P but I have a legit exception, I tried to do it the right way
[22:15:45] & elcasey the annoying shit is I have to renew it every year. I can't transfer to the orlando office (it exists, but it's not a "proper" office so it's not allowed? wtf ...). Tampa is fucked. So I will try to transfer to Miami later this year.
[22:17:31] & elcasey yes, another thing I am very thankful for
[22:17:55] & elcasey and I remember when you were the one taking care of your mom
[22:18:22] & elcasey idk what LN is but I have crypto investments
[22:19:03] & elcasey not a huge amount. and the 10x days are over (maybe some altcoins). I have a lot of Ripple. I am hoping that 10x+ but it is a hope.
[22:20:17] & elcasey I will check it out. Once this damn house sells I will have a LOT more money available every month and I will be saving as much as I can. I am ready to stop working, so 5yr plan. We'll see how that goes. But definitely wanna retire by 55.
[22:21:26] & elcasey I don't do transactions, like buying shit, with crypto because of the capital gains tax on it. It is just an investment vector for me right now. Crypto, 401K/mutual fund, gold/silver.
[22:21:46] & elcasey you probably remember when I was living off mining BTC back in the day :P
[22:21:55] & elcasey if only I knew ...
[22:22:27] & elcasey but I can't see the future so I really do not lose any sleep over that haha
[22:22:50] & elcasey em lost everything when mtgox collapsed
[22:23:06] & elcasey and I know the other two lads are still working their jobs :P
[22:23:31] & elcasey he was pretty alright, yeah
[22:23:47] & elcasey no idea, maybe libera
[22:23:50] & elcasey i don't go there
[22:42:16] & elcasey Naemuti: oh this is fuckin legendary (IMO) if you never heard this - https://youtu.be/9-dF24zvVYc
[22:42:37] & elcasey and 2021, it wasn't even AI x)
[23:04:54] & elcasey distro?
[23:05:08] & elcasey cool
[23:14:04] & elcasey i don't like ubuntu (and not on the "fuck ubuntu" bandwagon, I used it for 15+ years). but I had so many damn problems with it.
[23:14:15] & elcasey I run Fedora 43 across all my shit now, it's fine
[23:14:20] & elcasey including gaming
[23:14:56] & elcasey Naemuti: lol just read up about yo trackpad, exactly
[23:15:53] & elcasey I bought a new Lenovo (X whatever, Gen 13) last year, it had an issue with suspend. But when you opened the lid, it literally had a screen of text telling you what to do!!
[23:16:02] & elcasey and 3 days later, fix came out, done
[23:16:54] & elcasey Lenovo are brilliant now, they have gone all in on Linux, they quit offering Windows as the default OS
[23:17:14] & elcasey proper firmware and even UEFI/BIOS updates, it all comes through "dnf update" not even joking
[23:17:59] & elcasey maybe just a BIT more bourbon real quick in this ice, it's a LOT of ice
[23:18:01] & elcasey brb
