But this whole process has gotten so bad to where almost all the build crews, engineers, ect have to be importes and permitted fully before work cam be done because the lack of broad domestic expertise and the federal government mandates with the money being so heavily focused on ways to skim the money and push it into "diversity" mandates

PhrogDor Aug 22, 2025 11:07 PM general

It's crazy how we can't even reshore stuff anymore. It's extremely fucked

Spooky Phijkchu Aug 22, 2025 11:07 PM general

Saying corruption and grift is half the story, and yeah construction/infrastructure is especially hard-hit (on-top of regulatory BS)

Spooky Phijkchu Aug 22, 2025 11:07 PM general

I meant more that I don't think there is a public "official" reason being given at all

PhrogDor Aug 22, 2025 11:07 PM general

Not even mentioning choosing intel of all companies to try and make the head of all this reshoring is wild due to how poorly they've done.

Oh yeah absolutely not.

Spooky Phijkchu Aug 22, 2025 11:09 PM general

I have no love for Intel, and on the tech side they've fallen way behind cutting edge wafer production for years anyway

Spooky Phijkchu Aug 22, 2025 11:09 PM general

but it's alarming to see them just walk away

Spooky Phijkchu Aug 22, 2025 11:09 PM general

even if everyone sorta knew the project was behind schedule and fucked from every which direction

PhrogDor Aug 22, 2025 11:10 PM general

It just reflects the real economy. It is all so badly fucked

Spooky Phijkchu Aug 22, 2025 11:10 PM general

canceling it feeds that creeping dread that a larger systems collapse is coming

Spooky Phijkchu Aug 22, 2025 11:10 PM general

hey, nice, same conclusion lol

PhrogDor Aug 22, 2025 11:11 PM general

I have been hard on the train since 2023 bc the banking collapse

PhrogDor Aug 22, 2025 11:11 PM general

They bailed that out in real time and printed so much backdoor cash I stopped following it in 4 months

PhrogDor Aug 22, 2025 11:12 PM general

Obvious 2020 as well with those issues, but that was the hard crash in 2023 and it has just been pushed off

Spooky Phijkchu Aug 22, 2025 11:15 PM general

I'm not a doomer about the long-term outlook, because I think the foundation is there to fix things fairly rapidly

Spooky Phijkchu Aug 22, 2025 11:15 PM general

but it is kind of crazy the lengths we're going to delay delay delay

PhrogDor Aug 22, 2025 11:16 PM general

I agree

PhrogDor Aug 22, 2025 11:16 PM general

I get called a doomer for prognosticating a lot of pain though. Which a lot of pain will precipitate necessary change

Spooky Phijkchu Aug 22, 2025 11:16 PM general

but I will be out there on the National mall day 1 with the ropes and guillotine, in my finest Roamin the Paladin shirt

You knoe where I can get one now a days? I missed the window for that one tee shirt at the time lol

Spooky Phijkchu Aug 22, 2025 11:17 PM general

>missed the window by 15 years

Spooky Phijkchu Aug 22, 2025 11:17 PM general

lol

PhrogDor Aug 22, 2025 11:17 PM general

Yes

PhrogDor Aug 22, 2025 11:17 PM general

I was busy out for milk

PhrogDor Aug 22, 2025 11:18 PM general

🤣

Kribbles Aug 22, 2025 11:18 PM general

Is there a picture of this shirt? I don't even remember it.

Spooky Phijkchu Aug 22, 2025 11:18 PM general

Rob has extras, if you really want one unirronically if you meta rp with him you can probably get one

Spooky Phijkchu Aug 22, 2025 11:18 PM general

but I go back to, people should probably just leave Rob alone

PhrogDor Aug 22, 2025 11:19 PM general

Fuck really? That shit's so gay

Spooky Phijkchu Aug 22, 2025 11:20 PM general

ok apparently that picture might just be lost to time

Spooky Phijkchu Aug 22, 2025 11:20 PM general

I swore I had it

PhrogDor Aug 22, 2025 11:21 PM general

It's been too long. His old old shit results in more lost media everyday

Spooky Phijkchu Aug 22, 2025 11:22 PM general

Spooky Phijkchu Aug 22, 2025 11:22 PM general

here's a random old Roamin picture as recompense

Kribbles Aug 22, 2025 11:22 PM general

There's a shirt with that on it??

Kribbles Aug 22, 2025 11:22 PM general

Oh lool

He always played female clerics

PhrogDor Aug 22, 2025 11:24 PM general

Oh I thought you meant Animated Roamin. Not Roamin Roamin

PhrogDor Aug 22, 2025 11:24 PM general

Character over rp

PhrogDor Aug 22, 2025 11:27 PM general

I forget. I did Gary have Tees too?

Yahoo webarchives also seem to not work

PhrogDor Aug 22, 2025 11:31 PM general

I should hit rob up about shirts

PhrogDor Aug 22, 2025 11:31 PM general

Would be a funny interaction at least

PhrogDor Aug 22, 2025 11:32 PM general

I think I still have an account om his server too

Spooky Phijkchu Aug 22, 2025 11:32 PM general

if you do, do not post about it here like a bounty

Spooky Phijkchu Aug 22, 2025 11:32 PM general

we actively discourage people poking Rob, unless they're still fans and want to watch/engage with his current stuff

PhrogDor Aug 22, 2025 11:33 PM general

I've had it there for forever now. I'd just keep it to myself. Momentos to better times

PhrogDor Aug 22, 2025 11:35 PM general

I did stick around his birthday stream a bit

PhrogDor Aug 22, 2025 11:36 PM general

Seems like he at least does some stuff he enjoys right now. As long as he enjoys himself. Hopefully he doesn't attatch to dumb shit again

Yahoo used to be the shit

Phijkchu_Pikachu Aug 23, 2025 3:06 PM general

Shoutout to stricking I guess

Phijkchu_Pikachu Aug 23, 2025 3:06 PM general

I am getting an extra 2k in funding now

Phijkchu_Pikachu Aug 23, 2025 3:06 PM general

Makes up for the ~1k I lost by not working last winter term near the end

polu Aug 23, 2025 3:07 PM general

What are you going to do with the extra 1k?

heir Aug 23, 2025 3:07 PM general

he'll give it to his favorite dutch friend

Phijkchu_Pikachu Aug 23, 2025 3:08 PM general

Fire, if you came to Kingston not only would I put you up for as many nights as you want, I would cook for you

Phijkchu_Pikachu Aug 23, 2025 3:08 PM general

I have a queen size bed if you want to cuddle, otherwise an air matress

heir Aug 23, 2025 3:08 PM general

i'd rather do the cooking

Phijkchu_Pikachu Aug 23, 2025 3:08 PM general

Also fine

Ventt

heir Aug 23, 2025 3:10 PM general

honestly pika, i am tempted, but i don't know what the hell i would even do once there

heir Aug 23, 2025 3:11 PM general

other than making out with you

Phijkchu_Pikachu Aug 23, 2025 3:11 PM general

If it was during the summer, we could go to the lake I guess

Phijkchu_Pikachu Aug 23, 2025 3:11 PM general

if it was during winter, I guess you could just fucking die

heir Aug 23, 2025 3:11 PM general

true!

heir Aug 23, 2025 3:12 PM general

how cold does it get again where you are?

Phijkchu_Pikachu Aug 23, 2025 3:12 PM general

Depends, Southern Ontario typically stays between -40 to 40, typical winter weather is -20 to -30

heir Aug 23, 2025 3:12 PM general

that is quite cold

Dialga Aug 23, 2025 3:13 PM general

i'd rather have that than the summer heat where i'm at

Phijkchu_Pikachu Aug 23, 2025 3:13 PM general

Kingston is kind of nice, there is a lot of nature trails and what not to do

I prefer the colder weather usually too

Phijkchu_Pikachu Aug 23, 2025 3:13 PM general

the absolute extremes on both end suck though

heir Aug 23, 2025 3:14 PM general

i assume your houses are better insulated, though

heir Aug 23, 2025 3:14 PM general

if it's 1 degree outside over here, then that temperature will seep into our houses as well

heir Aug 23, 2025 3:14 PM general

it's not fantastic

Phijkchu_Pikachu Aug 23, 2025 3:14 PM general

My apartment gets stupid hot during the summer because no air conditioning, but during winter it is warm enough to not suffer
