[02:46:37] <SoyCow2358> And their overrepresentation in media, academia, upper-echelon politics, and yes even the pharmaceutical industry.

[10:21:28] <Runaway1956> “The nation of Gibraltar, which achieved a 99 percent vaccine compliance rate as of June 1, is now seeing an astounding spike in cases…The number of COVID cases per day have increased by an astounding 2500 percent since June 1, in the latest bit of evidence that the vaccine regime is not all it’s cracked up to be.”
[10:22:11] <Runaway1956> I'll bet it's all those filthy Euros using Gibraltar as their getaway playground

[10:23:14] <systemd> ^ 03PolitiFact Shamelessly Covering for Left-Wing Politicians, Not Rigorously Fact-Checking
[10:56:49] <FatPhil> Gibraltar isn't a nation. And an increase of 2500 percent is nothing - I can show you increases of infinity percent where the vaccine is working perfectly.
[10:58:34] <FatPhil> Gibralter has bugger all self-supporting economy, it has spaniards coming in and out constantly - I think special conditions were added to the brexit deal to handle that. So, yeah, it's a good mixing pot for people to cmoe and go.
[11:09:05] <Runaway1956> So, you confirm it's those filthy Euros?
[11:09:32] <Runaway1956> Euros are at the heart of all the world's problems!
[11:10:42] <Runaway1956> And, nation or not, if 99% are vaxxed, but they have people catching COVIDS, something ain't as advertised.
[11:12:25] -!- inky [inky!~inky@185.31.smv.uwr] has joined #soylent
[11:21:50] <FatPhil> if Gibraltar was on the Moroccan coast, it wouldn't be filthy Euros. You're seeing where the arrow landed, drawing a ring around it, and calling that the target.
[11:24:16] <FatPhil> I reckon Gibraltar and Cueta (sp?) should just do play swapsies. Brits would get to see a bit more of the world, and spain would become more sensibly-shaped.
[11:24:42] <FatPhil> Did you mean:
[11:24:59] <FatPhil> spanish ceuta
[11:25:05] <FatPhil> yes, I did, thank you google
[11:31:07] -!- inky has quit [Ping timeout: 264 seconds]
[11:39:03] <FatPhil> they only have a tiny fraction of new cases per day that they had at their peak, about 1/15th, so it looks like the vax is doing a pretty good job, better than expected to be honest, nobody's been claiming 94% effectiveness against Delta with a straight face.
[11:42:01] <Bytram> Runaway1956: FatPhil: Gibraltar *is* a country. I've been there. I needed to pass through customs to enter and leave it (coming from Spain).
[11:43:05] <Bytram> Also, NO vaccine it 100% effective.
[11:44:07] <Bytram> It is one of several protections against COVID-19.
[11:44:11] <FatPhil> it's a British Overseas Territory. Like Bermuda and the Falkland Islands.
[11:45:20] <FatPhil> So you were enterring Britain when you passed through customs.
[11:45:22] <Bytram> That said, it is the single most effective thing you can do, followed by wearing a mask (properly!) and social distancing.
[11:46:24] <FatPhil> I'd put masks below good hand hygiene. Masks probably work best as a reminder about hand hygiene. Or they would do if people weren't constantly fiddling with them.
[11:46:45] <Runaway1956> Of course no vax is 100% effective. Some of them have faulty chips in them.
[11:47:13] <FatPhil> masks are egress filtering more than ingress. washing hands as soon as you get home or wherever, is ingress filtering.
[11:48:01] <Runaway1956> We used to go gress hunting in the mountains.

[11:48:48] <Runaway1956> Somewhat like a fat ptarmigan.
[11:49:16] <Bytram> FatPhil: That makes sense... like the US Virgin Islands are a territory of the US. I confused leaving the country of Spain (and thus entering a different country) with it being a separate country unto itself. My bad.

[12:15:39] <FatPhil> I saw a great photo of some cargo cult artifacts recently, except it was a deliberate spoof - it had a straw Dalek (from /Dr. Who/), for example.
[12:26:39] <Runaway1956> Wouldn't spoofing a Dalek just piss off the real Daleks?
[12:28:19] <Runaway1956> Oh wait - was it a white Dalek, or a black Dalek?
[12:28:32] <Runaway1956> You can probably get away with spoofing a white one.

[13:03:27] <Runaway1956> I guess they're pretty small huskies though
[13:10:55] -!- AzumaHazuki [AzumaHazuki!~hazuki@the.end.of.time] has joined #soylent
[13:15:08] <FatPhil> Elon's the kind of vanity chick that would have one that could fit in his clutchbag.
[13:16:14] <FatPhil> But he would claim that it only eats 1/100th of what normal dogs eat.
[13:16:41] <FatPhil> And I'd expect it to die within a couple of years, and him hope that nobody brings that up.
[13:18:30] <Teckla> SpaceX is pretty cool, though. And Tesla did seem to spur major car companies to start taking EVs seriously.
[13:18:33] <Teckla> So kudos there.
[13:21:46] <FatPhil> And the personal electric plane, how's that coming on?
[13:22:26] <FatPhil> his various hyperloops are transporting how many people at 700mph presently?
[13:23:58] <FatPhil> Sure, various markets definitely needed disruption, because there was effectively a cartel in some, so I agree that's good. But not *as good* as his fantastic (by which i mean pure fantasy) claims.
[13:24:49] <FatPhil> Space-X will *never* have a launch cost per kilo 1/100th of what the competition can do. Ever. Ever ever ever.
[13:26:43] <Bytram> Think Mars. What is atmospheric pressure? So, low drag. Now toss in Boring Company. *Everything* seems to have something to do with Mars.
[13:27:44] <Bytram> !grab FatPhil
[13:27:44] <Bender> Added quote 1056
[13:30:04] <Bytram> How well will a combustion engine work on Mars? Let's develop electric.
[13:31:47] <FatPhil> /Spitting Image/ has him pretty much nailed
[13:33:15] <FatPhil> BUt if the atmosphere's very low pressure, then you don't need a hyperloop in the first place.
[13:33:49] <Bytram> dust storms
[13:34:09] <Bytram> some planet-wide, at that
[13:35:58] <FatPhil> Then again, what is a hyperloop? Is it a vacuum tube carrying mass transit pods at 700mph in magnetic levitation (with fans fore and aft if the drawings are to believed). Or is it teslas driving in ordinary tunnels at 40mph. According to Musk - it's both. Or maybe it's just a word, nothing more.
[13:42:24] <Bytram> dunno. Check out Las Vegas Convention Center -- how fast does that one go?

[13:45:05] <FatPhil> I can pedal bike faster than that
[13:46:10] <FatPhil> So full credit for him inventing the tunnel with no escape if there's a fire.
[13:47:17] <FatPhil> not that teslas have ever been mentioned in the context of fires, I have no idea why I even thought of that concept.

[13:54:19] <Teckla> FatPhil: *Personal* electric planes (with few seats) might become a thing (for short-ish flights). It'll never be a thing for lots of seats or long distance.
[13:54:43] <Teckla> Unless some epic, world-shaking quantum leap in battery storage happens.
[13:55:10] <Teckla> FatPhil: The hyperloop is dumb. :)
[13:55:32] <Teckla> I mean, if you are saying "Elon Musk says *lots* of dumb things" then I agree with you.
[13:56:03] <Bytram> I'm knackered. Laters.
[13:56:04] <Teckla> If I interpret him charitably, he says outrageous things for the PR.
[13:56:10] <Teckla> If I interpret him uncharitably, he's cray cray.
[13:56:15] <FatPhil> he's even admitted that he spouts crap, but the people inside his reality distortion field have ignored that.
[13:56:19] <Teckla> Bytram: What does knackered mean?

[13:58:15] <Teckla> Bytram: o/
[13:58:42] <Teckla> I think the majority of Elon's ideas and claims lack reality.
[13:58:50] <Teckla> But I'm still happy SpaceX and Tesla exist. :)
[13:58:59] <Teckla> I wouldn't mind at all if my next vehicle is electric.
[13:59:23] <Teckla> It won't be a Tesla, though. Too expensive for me, plus too many issues (or so I've heard).
[13:59:26] <Teckla> Maybe a Nissan Leaf.
[14:00:08] <FatPhil> Did you see /Who Killed The Electric Car/? Documentary from ~20 years back
[14:00:21] <FatPhil> =g who killed the electric car documentary
[14:00:22] <systemd> https://en.wikipedia.org - Who Killed the Electric Car? - Wikipedia
[14:00:22] <Teckla> Electric would be perfect for my car, since all I do is commute to/from work, and a few local trips.
[14:00:29] <Teckla> We have the wife's car for longer trips.
[14:00:36] <Teckla> FatPhil: Never saw it.
[14:01:22] <Teckla> When the time comes to buy another car, I'll reevaluate from scratch, like I always do, heh.
[14:01:48] <Teckla> I badly wanted to buy an EV back in 2017 -- more of a psychological thing than anything -- but cold, hard reality reared its ugly head, and it just wasn't practical.
[14:02:07] <Teckla> Ended up buying a used 2014 Camry instead, internal combustion engine.
[14:03:57] <FatPhil> Electric now satisfies 95+% of 95+% people's demands.
[14:05:21] <Teckla> One issue I have is that my house is 100% finished, and the garage and electric box are on opposite sides of the house. I'd have to pay a substantial amount to an electrician to get a dedicated line run, and lots for wall/ceiling/floor repairs after said electrician was done.
[14:05:26] <FatPhil> I saw someone do the maths once and conclude that you don't even need to own the ICE - just rent it for the holiday, cheaper than insuring and maintining your own one that depreciates in value. And you can have a newer model every year.
[14:05:52] <FatPhil> Get The Boring Company to bore you a duct for the cabling!
[14:06:37] <Teckla> Good point. Renting an ICE for holidays seems very reasonable.
[14:06:43] <FatPhil> Or just put in fake wooden beams. Fake wooden beams are cool!
[14:06:44] * Teckla chuckles.
[14:07:06] * FatPhil looks up
[14:07:28] <FatPhil> OK, mine aren't fake, but they're not as load-bearing as we'd like them to be.
[14:08:42] <FatPhil> Lots of pubs in the old town have used fake beams to hide their HVAC shit. Some rather tastefully, even.
[14:12:44] <Teckla> Mildly clever. :)
[14:15:21] <FatPhil> The best (you'll see soon that that's ironic) conversion I saw to the new EU-mandated ventilation and smoking rules was a pub no bigger than about 3m*4m where a perspex shower cubicle was installed in the corner, big enough for one person to stand up and have a fag, and his ventilation was just a simple bathroom extractor fan on the tiny window.
[14:16:49] <FatPhil> However, that pub is right next to a new skyscraper development for the nouveau-riche and Russian/Finnish moolah-wavers. So I'm tempted to try to buy a stake in the bar, and see if we can milk the idiots who are lazy and don't mind paying for overpriced things.
[14:20:24] <Teckla> Interesting idea.
