[19:42:49] <janrinok> I'll give it a quick look - I was about to go to bed but I will review it as best I can in the time remaining
[19:38:00] <Bytram> janrinok: Finished my first pass -- all yours; see #editorial, one story still needs a good deal more chopped out.
[19:34:13] <cmn32480> better be careful.. he'll hear you coming a mile away
[19:31:03] <janrinok> I haven't even got it yet - and I'm not going round to his place to fetch it either
[19:28:38] <chromas> They can't take your knighthood if it's on lockdown
[19:17:12] <janrinok> well, I suppose that is my knighthood out of the window
[19:16:34] <janrinok> no worse, even horses are embarrassed when they see her
[19:15:39] <chromas> He's married to Sarah Jessica Parker?
[19:08:58] <janrinok> Bytram - have you gone back into that merge story?
[19:07:35] <janrinok> His horse ^W wife has proven clear.
[19:01:52] <FatPhil> We might skip Charles and go straight to William by default!
[19:01:14] <FatPhil> So Prince Charles tests positive.

[18:55:00] <janrinok> I suppose I could, but they never believe my age until I show them some id. I suppose they might think I should be dead....?
[18:54:55] <pinchy> even when u asked a clerk they couldnt even find stuff. after that we were done with that place

[18:54:19] <pinchy> i quit shopping there. places where in illogical places
[18:54:16] <janrinok> as it is, people have been saying 'sod it' and going to the next village
[18:54:08] <cmn32480> janrinok - do you enjoy shopping senior only hours?
[18:54:03] <pinchy> several years ago my usual store pursposely moved everything in what appeared to be get ppl to buy extra stuff
[18:53:42] <cmn32480> they do it to force you to look t everything so you can see about fiinding somethign else you want
[18:52:50] <janrinok> I hate it when they do that - my local shop has reorganised everything - non of the customers can find what they want now!
[18:51:10] <pinchy> it would be on the right aisle just a way different shelf then originally
[18:50:34] <pinchy> sort of. stuff has moved since i guess they were so empty the restockers didnt know where it originally went
[18:49:54] <janrinok> shoe marks on the top shelf? that sort of thing?
[18:49:49] <pinchy> hah the tissue/paper aisle was of course empty
[18:49:34] <pinchy> shelves mostly back to normal. u can see signs of ransacking in the past
[18:49:22] <janrinok> good to hear
[18:49:13] <pinchy> walmart had restocked mostly. got all i wanted at least
[18:49:03] <janrinok> lol - a whole food, or just bits of it?
[18:48:49] <pinchy> i gto food yesterday! it was amazing!
[18:48:22] <janrinok> not a lot at this very moment - how's things?
[18:47:46] <pinchy> whats going on in chere?
[18:44:48] <janrinok> hi Fnord666

[18:12:07] <janrinok> because, if you cannot do that, it is not a story that we will ever publish.
[18:11:39] <janrinok> you can link to all of the material that you have linked to in the past. You can explain why it is important and better than other information that is on the same social media.
[18:10:18] <janrinok> so you want us to be your mouthpiece for information that cannot be substantiated, and we should not discuss it? That is not what this site is about.
[18:08:56] <carny> comments are almost worthless and you know it
[18:08:29] <janrinok> you could put your analysis as COMMENT on any of the CV stories we have published - but you have not done so. Why?
[18:07:15] <janrinok> we told you that less than 48 hours ago
[18:06:55] <janrinok> provide a linked story that we can verify and we will publish it.
[18:06:53] <carny> for as much time as you have left
[18:06:45] <carny> have fun with that
[18:06:24] <janrinok> That is what YOU want us to be - we are a discussion site.
[18:05:42] <carny> you could have made sn a clearing house for critical truth and warnings at a time when people really needed it and most other outlets were willingly participating in the lies
[18:05:36] <janrinok> how do we know that the stories you say we should approve are factual?
[18:05:01] <janrinok> you haven't submitted a story with any evidence. Your assessment is invaluable - but it belongs in comments so that others can discuss it, not as random suggestions. You were invited to submit a story but you have not done so.
[18:03:58] <carny> all i asked was for you guys to approve stories that were telling the truth instead of the lies we're all being told
[18:03:50] <janrinok> in which case you are just reciting what others have posted on imgur and youtube without any supporting evidence. You cannot have it both ways
[18:03:21] <carny> and i don't put other people in jeopardy just so i can shoot my mouth off
[18:02:55] <carny> i don't break my oaths
[18:02:39] <carny> and i have discussed exactly nothing classified here or anywhere else
[18:02:18] <carny> government officials or so called main stream media it's all the same
[18:01:49] <janrinok> so you are an analyst. So you have access to classified information. So do you really think you should be asking us to compromise that without something to back it up?
[18:01:26] <carny> ba dump bump ;]
[18:01:11] <Soybull> their lips are moving
[18:01:08] <Soybull> it's easy to tell when officials are lying
[18:01:02] <carny> i've been reading this situation correctly from the beginning and you've been in denial the whole time
[18:00:39] <carny> face it janrinok i'm just a better analyst than you are because i know when officials are lying
[17:59:38] <Soybull> and deanonymize them, of course
[17:59:19] <Soybull> what if he derandomizes his posts?
[17:58:23] <janrinok> random posts on imgur or youtube is not a better model, unless you can provide something to back them up.
[17:57:35] <carny> i've been linking articles for 2 months now
[17:57:17] <FatPhil> I'll put my follow-up comments in a different chan...
[17:57:11] <janrinok> they haven't - they are just using the best information available. If you've got better date then produce it.
[17:56:47] <carny> too bad tens of millions of people are going to die becuase it took them this long
[17:56:29] <FatPhil> yup, I just did the sums, nothing else
[17:56:29] <carny> janrinok: oh how nice they're finally admitting they've been wrong for the past 90 days
[17:56:04] <carny> you're capable of ignoring the past and your ego and just going by the data
[17:55:53] <janrinok> carny - that is contradicted by the BBC coverage of the govt update that I have just watched where they said exactly that - this pandemic breaks all the reliable models
[17:55:41] <carny> FatPhil: that's because you're not invested in a lifetime of modelling last year's diseases
[17:55:40] <FatPhil> I think it's half way between Maine and Vermont, both pop wise and size wise
[17:55:39] * Soybull needs coffee to stave off the bug
[17:55:18] <carny> when the incubation period can stretch to 97 days and the contagion period has an unknown overlap the old methods go out the window
[17:55:02] <Soybull> FatPhil - I have to admit, I don't know how large Estonia is - is it like New Jersey sized?
[17:55:00] <FatPhil> Au contraire - I think it fits all the models - my predictions have been amazingly accurate.
[17:54:14] <carny> nobody wants to admit that this pandemic breaks all the reliable models and is therefore worse than anything they planned for
[17:53:54] <Soybull> Short drive, in my dictionary, being an hour or so away
[17:53:15] <Soybull> no deaths reported, but more and more diagnosis within a short drive of my home
[17:52:44] <Soybull> It's getting scary guys
[17:52:30] <Soybull> Turns out the guy in Texarkana was at the boss's house just a couple days ago
[17:52:29] <janrinok> I hope that your wife is safe and well
[17:52:11] <Soybull> Yesterday, my wife's boss had to go home, she was running a fever.
[17:51:46] <Soybull> a guy was diagnosed with it in Texarkana
[17:51:27] <Soybull> notes on Corona?
[17:44:25] <janrinok> FatPhil, if I turn you upside down, is your BB date stamped on your bottom -- I wish I hadn't had that thought now...
[17:43:11] <janrinok> oh, there were quite a few other deaths from CV today, but I mentioned this because some seem to think that the young are not affected.
[17:41:58] <Ingar> and one area where 50% of the hospitalized infected are Turks
[17:41:10] <Ingar> the majority of deaths are elderly ppl and ppl with a medical history though
[17:40:42] <Ingar> we had a few cases as well
[17:40:21] <janrinok> a 21 year old died of CV in the UK - no mention of underlying health issues yet.
[17:27:53] <inz> FatPhil, the mistake is of course that the number of loons greeatly outnumbers the 1.2k looms
[17:26:12] <FatPhil> considered an "at risk" patient, but that could just be age. You could say that at 83, she had the disease "fricken old".
[17:19:20] <chromas> Was the 83-year-old also sick with something else?
[17:15:20] <FatPhil> 1st death confirmed in Estonia, in Tallinn, 83-year old. I wondered when we'd break that duck.
[17:14:09] <chromas> You'll shoot your eye out, kid.
[17:13:04] <FatPhil> Past my BB date?
[17:07:25] <chromas> FatPhil: You don't become a non-person; you'll just be expired.

[16:16:31] <FatPhil> In the same document: "The [fire] guard was required to make rounds of all the factory rooms on food, [...]"
[16:16:11] <FatPhil> inz: yeah, I had to read it twice before it sank in what the mistake was!
[16:15:04] <FatPhil> it's sauna night for us tonight, it's almost tempting to pop out in our bathrobes and go to that pub (it's about 80m away) between sessions!
[16:14:17] <FatPhil> when that pub (which closes tonight :( ) changes its cider, do I become a non-person?
[15:59:47] <janrinok> FP - they will still know who you are from that photo though!
[15:53:08] <FatPhil> info from my "local". pub has no plans to close, and they're still legit selling up to 10pm.
[15:40:35] <AndyTheAbsurd> Nah, usually you can get a better price by watching the regular store's ads...but I have definitely gone a little overboard at times.
[15:37:40] <cmn32480> AndyTheAbsurd - you go a little overboard at Costco?
[15:17:26] <AndyTheAbsurd> like...you'd better have thought through where in your house you can store that much before you bring it home.
[15:16:12] <AndyTheAbsurd> 23 cases of soda also takes up a nontrivial amount of space.
