20:44 * BingoBoingo a bit surprised the world is so bereft of sysadmins and folks renting servers.
~ 17 minutes ~
21:01 * BingoBoingo also still stuck on "Holy shit all the socialists are racing to Chinese solutions over a not-quite common cold"
21:06 thimbronion BingoBoingo: mock me if you will but I'm convinced I had it already.
21:06 thimbronion It sucked, but not world ending, no.
21:06 BingoBoingo thimbronion: Being in Cali you may have.
21:09 thimbronion I can't quite reconcile my experience with people being welded into their hives.
21:09 shinohai I just came back from store. First time I have seen bare shelves since thing began.
21:10 thimbronion Could just be China had to be so extreme because a) many olds b) high population density
21:10 * BingoBoingo recently returned from walking the neighborhood supermarkets. Not particularly different from any other Friday.
21:11 thimbronion Schools are closed for the next 3 weeks here.
21:11 shinohai Supplies are good in hacienda shinohai. Wine was low was only reason I stepped out.
21:14 thimbronion I still have food buckets from ebola.
21:14 BingoBoingo thimbronion: There's some conjecture that this coronovirus may target certain receptors certain Asian men have more of. Still, here's this piece of biogoop emerged from Mother Nature's Cunthead (But it's looking increasingly like China's may go with the US bioweapon lab to take advantage of low USG credibility). It offers socialists of the world the gift of taking the oldest bodies off their books. They respond to this
21:14 BingoBoingo gift by promptly shutting down every active thing they can.
21:15 thimbronion Well the boomers are unfortunately still running everything.
21:17 BingoBoingo Well, the only democrat running for president of the US under the age of 77 is Tulsi Gabbard and Trump's 73.
21:18 BingoBoingo Gerontocracy
21:18 thimbronion I like the "China stole US bioweapon and accidentallied themselves" narrative.
21:20 BingoBoingo There's this https://archive.is/Xsrjx on the "too much coronavirus noise", maybe it goes in a roundup or someone shoots stack
21:21 BingoBoingo "2/2 CDC was caught on the spot. When did patient zero begin in US? How many people are infected? What are the names of the hospitals? It might be US army who brought the epidemic to Wuhan. Be transparent! Make public your data! US owe us an explanation! " - @zlj517 some Chinese foreign ministry PR guy
21:24 BingoBoingo ^thimbronion you may have a better idea what that means as it appears to be Chinese written in English words
21:29 thimbronion BingoBoingo: Original is here: https://twitter.com/zlj517/status/1238113459234934785 - translation looks accurate to me.
21:38 asciilifeform plague panic btw in full swing in washingtonistan. ( schools, uni, etc closed by decree. tho restaurants, bars, still packed, no 73y.o.'s there )
21:42 thimbronion BingoBoingo: what do you mean by "shoots stack"?
21:46 thimbronion Interesting that in US the social media videos are about hoarding but not people dropping in the streets like in Iran, China. Still wating for those...
~ 31 minutes ~
22:18 BingoBoingo thimbronion: I mean Iran or China runs with the narrative and the shoot, knocking down the Jenga that is... Well you've been documenting how the Chinese are taking chunks out of California and running with them.
22:19 BingoBoingo asciilifeform: In the past few hours the locals have taken to mimicking as best they can the panic up North. Still with the Peso falling faster than the dollar... No one clearing shelves. Shelves were more bear earlier this month when Tienda Inglesa ran a "Rompe Precios" special
22:20 asciilifeform potato shortage, of all things, here.
22:20 asciilifeform sovokesque.
22:21 BingoBoingo Well, those thing supply lines...
22:21 BingoBoingo JIT everything!
22:21 asciilifeform aha
22:23 BingoBoingo Nevermind Argentina's failure lead to Dengue crossing the river into Salto (far North West), the not-quite-common cold's driving panic!
~ 1 hours 7 minutes ~
23:30 BingoBoingo Meanwhile, from the local rags as freenode shits itself https://i.imgur.com/ybPn9N7.jpg
23:35 BingoBoingo Meanwhile in Telesur http://archive.is/uI0iu
~ 18 minutes ~
23:54 shinohai "Financiaremos este esfuerzo con Petro (tm), la criptomoneda mas avanzada del mundo."
23:57 BingoBoingo shinohai: Telesur is a Cuba/Vzla/Uru-rotary-guay thing that Uruguay quit this week as part of the new government's housecleaning
