hi lovelies
<ELLIOTTCABLE>
so I want to *load*www.hbonow.com, locally, under dev.hbonow.com
<ELLIOTTCABLE>
I tried adding an etc/hosts entry, naively, but remotely it redirects to www.hbonow.com
<ELLIOTTCABLE>
I guess I've got to set up some sort of local proxy to respond to requests with content that's further requested from hbonow.com?
<ELLIOTTCABLE>
I'm far from a hacker, somebody used to fucking with things, tell me the easiest way to do this :P

<alexgordon>
hi gq
<alexgordon>
I can't see you
<alexgordon>
because no scrollback
<alexgordon>
also because I'm talking on the internet
<alexgordon>
and this is just text
<ELLIOTTCABLE>

<alexgordon>

<ELLIOTTCABLE>
so much radio!
<alexgordon>
wadio
<ELLIOTTCABLE>
my car is getting ridiculous
<ELLIOTTCABLE>
in front of me on the road I've got, *besides* all the screens built into the Tesla,
<alexgordon>
tim cook has a radio in his car but it only plays Beats 1
<ELLIOTTCABLE>
1. HF/VHF/UHF multiband transceiver (usually scanning the known 144/440 repeaters),
<alexgordon>
also his car is a horse
<ELLIOTTCABLE>
2. CB/SSB-CB transceiver (usually sitting on CB channel 19, the highway chat channel)
<alexgordon>
wait your car doesn't have SH/FU/IT/CK?
<ELLIOTTCABLE>
3. broadband scanner w/ GPS (HomePatrol <3), scanning the local frequencies of whatever town I'm driving through
<ELLIOTTCABLE>
4. iPad running Waze (<3 <3 <3) and a weird little Tesla-tracker website that shows me realtime wind-resistance feedback, in splitscreen
<gq>
'lo
<ELLIOTTCABLE>
5. iPhone running Spotify and/or a phone call
<gq>
i didn't say anything
<gq>
so there was no exciting scrollback to read
<alexgordon>
lol overheard today "Can I say that I'm getting a mortage on my car?" … "No."
<gq>
no worries
<gq>
alexgordon: wat
<gq>
lol
<ELLIOTTCABLE>
tl;dr I have ten thousand pieces of technology distracting me from the road at any given moment and i'm definitely going to die behind the wheel in the next ~36 months ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
<ELLIOTTCABLE>
(and that's when I'm *not* running IRC or Slack on my laptop in the passenger seat :x )
<alexgordon>
so that's how you irc while driving
<alexgordon>
you really are going to get yourself killed one day
<ELLIOTTCABLE>
sometimes I *read* on my ipad
<alexgordon>
is this while autopilot is on?
<ELLIOTTCABLE>
but that displaces the shit I *actually* want on my iPad while driving (Waze, etc)
<ELLIOTTCABLE>
well duh, jesus christ, even *I'm* not that multitasking-capable
<alexgordon>
oh
<alexgordon>
I only just made the connection
<alexgordon>
:D
* ELLIOTTCABLE
laughs
* ELLIOTTCABLE
hugs alexgordon
<ELLIOTTCABLE>
hi, I genuinely miss you
<alexgordon>
thought you were IRCing while driving down a very straight road or something
<ELLIOTTCABLE>
wish I ... coded more? IRC'd more? ranted about Paws more? idk?
<ELLIOTTCABLE>
well back in the day like yeah
<ELLIOTTCABLE>
but nowadays I've replaced "driving" with "all this radio crap" as my IRC accompaniment :P
<alexgordon>
the future is crazy
<ELLIOTTCABLE>
fuck yes it is
<ELLIOTTCABLE>
chellio was here the last couple days;
<ELLIOTTCABLE>
amazingly, I hadn't seen her in like 10mos
<ELLIOTTCABLE>
but she drove Verity for the first time, after hearing about the car endlessly for forever
<ELLIOTTCABLE>
and had basically the same reaction
<ELLIOTTCABLE>
'a couple decades of, at best, tiny incremental / superficial feature-adds on cars ... and then suddenly the jump to *this*'
<ELLIOTTCABLE>
i quote, "way bigger deal than the iPhone"
