~ 8 hours 42 minutes ~
11:39 billymg update on things here: i've been talking to my lawyers about the residency process and learned that the immigration offices are closed until May 17th. additionally, the government just announced that even anyone who is a resident of costa rica (foreigner, not a citizen), no matter for how long, will [lose their residency if they leave the country][https://qcostarica.com/foreigner-residents-who-leave-costa-rica-wi
11:39 billymg ll-lose-their-residency-status/]. apparently this is unprecedented and law offices are trying to get further clarification
11:39 billymg https://qcostarica.com/foreigner-residents-who-leave-costa-rica-will-lose-their-residency-status/
11:40 billymg on top of all that there is now a "dry law" in effect from the santa cruz municipality, apparently due to the "national emergency"
11:46 BingoBoingo billymg: Well, on the plus side is there somewhere other than Costa Rica where you'd rather ride out this panic?
11:50 billymg BingoBoingo: honestly, no, which is why i'm nervous at the possibility of it being taken away from me if the madness continues/escalates ("sorry, border's closed kid, time to go home")
11:58 billymg whaack: is the booze in stores all locked up where you are too?
12:08 BingoBoingo billymg: Well, on what planes will they see you out?
12:11 billymg BingoBoingo: lol good point
12:12 BingoBoingo We're down to just charters and repatriation flights as far as people moving planes go.
12:18 billymg ah, looks to be similar here https://ticotimes.net/2020/03/21/most-airlines-suspending-flights-to-costa-rica
12:18 billymg what a mess
12:22 BingoBoingo It is, but I prefer the shape the mess is taking down here to the one it is taking back in the zone so far.
12:22 billymg BingoBoingo: absolutely
12:31 billymg http://logs.ossasepia.com/log/ossasepia/2020-03-25#1022944 << if it is pressing to get a patch out soon for server-side selection then perhaps best if someone else took on the task, i've got plenty still to keep me busy here on the finca and tbh my mind lately has been directed towards more immediate/personal concerns
12:31 ossabot Logged on 2020-03-25 17:23:31 jfw: I'll wrap up about WP patches: I can't say who's the source of truth, perhaps billymg but MP spoke to him about the futility of continuing that role.

13:08 whaack billymg: http://ztkfg.com/2020/03/the-costa-rican-government-has-closed-all-beaches-and-banned-the-sale-of-alcohol/
13:17 whaack billymg: You can try asking cashiers if they'd be willing to sell you alcohol. Make sure you bring a backpack that they can fill up behind the counter, they will not want to use their own bags for the purpose. If you want booze and have had trouble I can try to do another liquor run.
~ 36 minutes ~
13:54 trinque billymg: don't take me as having meant this is more important than sorting your life
13:54 trinque if you want to huck me a signed tarball of w/e you have, I could take a look
~ 17 minutes ~
14:11 billymg trinque: ack, ty. i meant that i had not yet gotten around to starting it, so nothing to share atm
14:13 billymg whaack: ah, good to know! we'll have to try some small stores then
~ 47 minutes ~
15:00 diana_coman trinque, billymg: is there some mp-wp code that is not already published or why is now talk of signed tarballs all of a sudden?
15:01 diana_coman I get the impression trinque is looking for some mystical mp-wp code that never was really; as far as I know there's the V-tree of mp-wp that billymg has on his site and otherwise MP's article on trilema and that's all there is.
15:14 jfw diana_coman: been sitting on the following question a bit but as there's no gain in silence I'll have it out: if you've had a chance to consider it yet, how do you interpret http://trilema.com/2019/so-i-was-thinking/#comment-148004 and specifically 'take my advice and do not ever indulge in the activity depicted. It is infinitely better to shoot any "smart" bois you run into on the spot than to
15:14 jfw indulge them with a view to maybe helping. There is no fucking helping, shoot them all outright directly.' ? Is there a difference between the sort of help he advises against and what you're going for here?
15:15 jfw It's not out of character for his "slaps", to be sure, but seems to quite close off any possibility of recovery or improvement.
15:16 jfw I haven't fully digested the thread it follows fwiw.
15:17 diana_coman jfw: the problems you make for yourself, seriously.
15:17 diana_coman jfw: listen, do you want to go away? then go away, I won't chase you or anything; is that what you are asking?
15:19 jfw Not so long as there's value in staying, which I quite think there is.
15:20 diana_coman so then what exactly are you concerned with there? whether I'm wasting my own time? whether I'm going to (or whether I should rather) shoot you or what?
15:21 diana_coman whether MP will?
15:21 diana_coman whether you are exactly the sort of "boi" he talks about?
15:22 diana_coman what, are you entirely out of things to spin on so you finally found a mighty one to keep you from doing anything, is that it?
15:22 jfw I don't surmise the "shooting" is literal. and yeah, I trust you to manage your own time, so, not sure.
15:23 jfw I don't know if I'm the sort he talks about.
15:23 diana_coman jfw: to put it plainly, it is none of your business really; ie sure, it is a warning and perhaps a warning I should heed; but I don't quite have to explain what/if about it.
15:24 diana_coman jfw: you know, if you are then you are and if you aren't then you aren't and in either case spinning about it will do nothing at all.
15:24 diana_coman that part with do more and spin less, seriously.
15:25 jfw diana_coman: right, right. no end of practice for me on that apparently.
15:27 diana_coman jfw: to be perfectly clear - I still think it's good you asked the question since you were wasting time on it; should have asked earlier and wasted even less; but it's quite stupid for you to waste time on it to start with.
15:27 jfw aha, figured that was it but thanks for clarifying.
15:27 diana_coman you're welcome.
15:33 diana_coman jfw: since we uncovered that need for more practice - what are you actually *doing* today?
15:35 jfw looking into local health insurance, V work and writing that up are at the top of the list.
15:36 diana_coman looking forward to reading that write-up of V work soon enough then.
15:37 jfw alright
15:46 diana_coman lobbes: what happened to you?
~ 2 hours 43 minutes ~
18:30 billymg diana_coman: re: mp-wp i'm guessing he just thought i had already started on something for the server-side selection task (which is a reasonable assumption). but yes, the only incomplete work is the embeddable code draft vpatch (which is published)
18:32 trinque diana_coman: there's the patches, and whatever selection mechanism everyone bitches every time I don't have.
18:32 trinque have former, want latter.
