Hi itsjustme
parabo
dr|z3d
parabo
Reinhilde
Reinhilde
it's not me
parabo
You broke, and disability fucking you over... Wanna come here and work for me? I'll give you a job doing... Something, a food
parabo
Good paying job with a housing and board and benefits plan
itsjustme
Hey parabo
Reinhilde
Right now? No
Reinhilde
If I don't get any interviews, or have no joy with the dole office on monday (ellenor's birthday), then yeah, i'll relocate out to tario if you have anything I can reasonably expect not to die doing
parabo
Okay, well Reinhilde if you ever want to get into the parrot breeding game, I'll give you amazing compensation
parabo
You can be a parrot breeder
parabo
I'll teach you
Reinhilde
shrug, i'm not interested, it sounds too much like danger
parabo
Just give me a way to help you without handouts. Even if it's an excuse to justify helping you
parabo
itsjustme do you want a B&F
parabo
B&G?
parabo
It's not dangerous unless you consider occasionally getting a broken finger dangerous or a small flesh wound
parabo
You will get bit and it will hurt. It will not disable you for life
itsjustme
Huh?
itsjustme
A what?
parabo
Blue and Gold Macaw
Reinhilde
Hard time in a kitchen seems safer parabo
parabo
Reinhilde you want to be my full time cleaning lady?
parabo
There's always bird poop and my constantly increasing and unavoidable messes
Reinhilde
you can't help me, i just need to vent i guess
parabo
Maybe I can offer some other solution
parabo
How about I put you in charge of customer service and sales for my cell phone and laptop company?
parabo
You could even stay in BC. Work from home
parabo
You could just... Answer phones, and promote my devices online whatever it will generate sales
parabo
itsjustme take the B&G. I'll give you for free
Reinhilde
you're guilt tripping yourself
parabo
Why?
parabo
I'm trying to offer you help that doesn't involve me jusr giving you money for no reason
Reinhilde
I understand that, and I don't want you to give me money for no reason. It's just that you don't have my résumé and I'm not presently looking for a relocation-required job
Reinhilde
nor remote, i have to get out of the house ffs
Reinhilde
i'll try arguing my case with the dole office, and if I get no joy, my morals go out the window
parabo
Well.
parabo
What about sales and customer service over phone from your home without relocation?
Reinhilde
I've applied a few local places already, i'll lyk if I have any luck
parabo
My cell phones are ready to start selling...
parabo
And so are my laptops.
parabo
You could handle customer service and sales/inquiry calls
Reinhilde
I could do CS and prospective-customer service
parabo
Yeah. Awesome
Reinhilde
but I'd need to use a TTS because my voice is fucked from acid reflux
parabo
Well, we can handle that with some pantaprazole
Reinhilde
Sure, but that'd fuck my digestion up in other ways
parabo
I use it every day for acid reflux and chronic gastritis
Reinhilde
anyway, bbl
parabo
Okay
parabo
itsjustme
itsjustme
Hey parabo
parabo
itsjustme!
parabo
Birds!
itsjustme
How are your birds?
parabo
Good
parabo
I just reserved a pair of make
parabo
Male baby Mullocan's
parabo
I told him I want them and won't haggle on the price but I have covid and can't pick them up for a minimum 5 days
itsjustme
Oh that sucks :(
parabo
Yeah I guess
rambler
Anyone care to recommend a decent budget-tier mechanical keyboard? ($50 or less range)
rambler
I've just got a Redragon one recently which I thoroughly enjoy typing on, but hate the LEDs on it. May just replace it with one from the same brand if I can find one that is just a simple matte black with no backlit keys and stuff.
parabo
Hey rambler
parabo
I only know one under $80 that is good and it has very bright LED keys and every time you hit a key it changes color
parabo
I just use my cell phone as a remote keyboard
parabo
I can say the Corsair Cherry switch mechanical keyboards are incredible. But also expensive
parabo
I personally don't use a physical keyboard. Typing c
parabo
Via my phone is easier and I get autocorrect and autocomplete and next word suggestions
rambler
I just found out how to disable the LEDs on this keyboard so did that. May just keep it around now. I can't stand typing on a phone, especially for the novels of text I write that give me my nick, "rambler".
rambler
I wish they made modern phones with the latest/greatest mobile hardware but with a physical keyboard like the old blackberries or something.
parabo
rambler... They make phones with typo corrective fuzzy search correction and completion
parabo
Gboard and Samsung Keyboard both do it
parabo
I use Gboard
parabo
rambler. Wanna buy one of my phones?
parabo
I'll give you one at cost. $18.60 USD plus shipping and duty
parabo
rambler. They have ML based predictive typo corrective touch for all clickable screen elements. You can choose cloud based ML training or to do it on the phone
parabo
They also come with 1tb lifetime cloud storage
rambler
I'm real weird about phone use. I appreciate the offer though.
parabo
What is the issue? Maybe I can give you some relief of concern
parabo
I mean... Everything is secure and solid. I stake my reputation on it.
rambler
Mainly because I'm still very content with my current phone and my original request was about a desktop keyboard :) . But regarding phones in general, just privacy related thoughts similar to a desktop computer.
parabo
Oh
parabo
Well, privacy related issues, I would trust me, over anyone else. Including OEM device makers
parabo
At least when I am invading or decloaking anyone's privacy, I openly warn people before I do it. Usually I give several months warning before selling a crypto breaking algorithm or launching an attack on I2P
rambler
Definitely would be cool though to see more about your phone. Got a site or online listing somewhere?
Reinhilde
parabo: sounds like anom
dr|z3d
what up p
itsjustme
Hey dr|z3d
dr|z3d
hey hey ijm. all good?
itsjustme
all good. Hbu?
dr|z3d
not bad, thanks
dr|z3d
busy busy refactoring themes, ijm. thankless work!
parabo
dr|z3d shizzzle dizzle
parabo
I think I have made the most secure android custom ROM build ever
dr|z3d
well done
parabo
Yeah. There's more work to be done ov
parabo
Obviously
dr|z3d
skynet part 2.
parabo
It's only been 9 weeks of development and only 6 days of those were focused on security
dr|z3d
does it have a calculator app to grant access to the hidden features?
parabo
Nope. 100% based on security. It has ML components, but there is two options, cloud based transfer learning or retraining, or device based local retraining which is slow
parabo
It has everything LineageOS has. Plus everything the best OEM device makers have other and an AI assistant like Bixby
dr|z3d
it needs a calculator app to gain access to hidden features.
parabo
Lol, there will be no hidden features. Although I might make an option for advanced or basic skill level users that automates the management and control of many features
dr|z3d
without hidden features, it won't work as a sting phone.
parabo
Its not a sting phone. In fact I intend to put warrant canaries on every component that isn't built in and part of the system which will also have a warrant canary
dr|z3d
oh, not a sting phone. my bad.
parabo
The goal is to become a reputable company that markets phones far below market value of phones of similarly specs, t
dr|z3d
I thought this was an fbi side project.
parabo
While offering not only the latest AOSP and LineageOS changes and features, but more security and features than any other phone OS or Android ROM
parabo
It was CSIS, not FBI, and no this is a business venture intended to stop the unaffordable costs of modern phones with frequent updates and advanced features found in top end devices
parabo
I have no intention of doing anything related to the integrity of the device other than improve it
dr|z3d
ok. sounds promising.
parabo
The devices will be bought in bulk at wholesale from OEMs at a discounted rate because we will be waiving warranty claims and usability requirements.
parabo
The first and currently only up to date build/port is to a phone I pay $18.60 USD per device for
parabo
I figure the cost of bringing them to market should cost about $35 at the MSRP price... So $38 is my target MSRP
parabo
And all enhancements and driver modules or other hardware support will be going upstream to AOSP and Linux kernel. LineageOS themselves have stated they have zero interest in even looking at and considering anything I do
dr|z3d
oh?
dr|z3d
why aren't they interested?
parabo
Well, they like the way they have things now and feel no desire to be open to changes additions, improvements, or replacing of anything they use
parabo
Basically they think because they are the best custom ROM organization... That there is no way I can give them better than they already have
parabo
Which is ignorance at a high level
dr|z3d
that's what they told you?
parabo
They told me they have their solutions and code is perfect the way it is, they aren't interested in update capabilities other than reflash via extracting a zip file which disables dynamic partitioning and dual system partition update mechanism improvement
parabo
They said they aren't interested in anything being changed, or improved, or my contributions at all, and I said well, when I am ready to hit the market with my first device the licences of all the components require me to share the full source, and I hope they will take a look then and consider adopting some or all of my changes
dr|z3d
where was this? irc?
parabo
Yes, libera which replaced freenode, but the official devs weighed in via a relay bot to their discord shit
parabo
Idiots I declare
dr|z3d
!
dr|z3d
ok, latest round of midnight console and webapp themes done. if you're a midnight theme afficionado, take them for a spin. dev build's up!
parabo
Hey itsjustme dr|z3d
parabo
dr|z3d
AmyMalik
i'm a dragon >:3
parabo
dr|z3d
dr|z3d
what up p
parabo
dr|z3d, just ordered a new computer
dr|z3d
of course you did!
parabo
I know
dr|z3d
shopaholic!
parabo
Always right?
dr|z3d
are you still running with the midnight theme?
parabo
I am no
dr|z3d
no? dark?
parabo
I dunno
dr|z3d
you must know.
parabo
I have literally never opened the router console on this laptop
parabo
Whatever the default is
dr|z3d
shocking! where's my feedback?
dr|z3d
you should have a browse around the console, tell me if it feels responsive.
parabo
um, I don't care anymore about i2p
parabo
lol
parabo
I am here because I feels somewhat less abnormal than being gone\
dr|z3d
well start caring!
dr|z3d
huge amount of theme work this cycle. console's now html5, not html 4.01 transitional, 10 years of cruft removed from most themes.. should feel faster.
itsjustme
Hey parabo
dr|z3d
what up ijm
itsjustme
Not to much really
itsjustme
You?
dr|z3d
busy with pre-release updates. new release probably tomorrow.
itsjustme
Wooo!
parabo
what up itsjustme
parabo
?
itsjustme
Not to much. Going to a museum. You?
parabo
isolating at home because I have covid again
itsjustme
:(
parabo
fucking fourth time I've tested positive with one time fully symptomatic unable to get tested until after recovery and another the doctor believed was a false negative
parabo
being immune compromised sucks
parabo
most people need to be exposed to hundreds or thousands of copies of the virus for one to get it's way in and infect... immune compromised people its a few or even one copy
parabo
So I keep getting sick
parabo
4th confirmed time getting covid with 2 more times suspected having it
parabo
fmw
parabo
fml
parabo
I wanna go to mosque and go to burger king and go to my friends house for a two man lan party since he has no internet... Or even across the street to buy candies and red bulls and freezies or other frozen treats
parabo
Like all I can do is sit and study
parabo
And I can't study my avian vet specialist program work because they cancelled the semester
parabo
aparrently I am the only biologist/veterinarian/infectious disease expert who actually wants to go to university during a surge of cases since before semester started
parabo
like my PhD program in virology based genetic engineering classes all got cancelled and I have no coursework to do...
itsjustme
Yeah
AmyMalik
hii
parabo
FUCK YEAH
AmyMalik
parabo: sup?
dr|z3d
he's just installed an I2P+ dev build, AmyMalik.
dr|z3d
obviously :)
AmyMalik
*** shanks dr|z3d ***
parabo
AmyMalik, covid positive. combined with immune compromised i am isolated until minimum march 1
parabo
They said if I have 0 symptoms for 5 days by march 1 I can leave the house
parabo
I want a way to obtain red bull and candy
AmyMalik
I meant the fuck yeah. Already know about the covid+
AmyMalik
Condolences btw >.<
AmyMalik
I hope you recover quickly & completely
parabo
I will be fine just like the last 3 confirmed times and 2 unconfirmed but doctor said highly likely times
parabo
fucking immune compromised status
parabo
How else does a tripple vaccinated person get covid twice in 5 weeks, with 3 vaccines to gen antibodies and 3 past infections to generate antibodies
parabo
FFS
parabo
the worst part is I want candy, red bull, and frozen treats from across the street and I can't get them
dr|z3d
phone the gimp
dr|z3d
the gimp will deliver
itsjustme
Gimp on da phone?
dr|z3d
parabo has an army of gimps waiting to do his bidding.
dr|z3d
parabo: call the taliban, tell them you need hersheys and red bull.
parabo
I don't have an army
parabo
Well I have a literal army, but not here
parabo
I have no one who isn't public health mandated to also isolate/quarantine until march 1
dr|z3d
tell elon to fly you some supplies in via automated drone
dr|z3d
anyways, think on the positive side. you now have plenty of time to get acquainted with the latest i2p+ dev build. then you can "FUCK YEAH" for real.
parabo
I don't associate with Elon
parabo
I told him to fuck off
parabo
I am dealing with my forks and their development for my devices
parabo
that will keep me more than busy enough
AmyMalik
oh noooo
