07:26:05
<Mike J> Small group here this morning. And a good morning to all
07:27:49
<Kat> Morning Mike J,
07:49:12
<Kevin L™ 🌵> Looks like someone has the cam working.
07:49:47
<Kat> I got right in this morning!
07:50:26
<Kevin L™ 🌵> Nice
08:35:13
<Kat> Oblong
08:38:35
<Kat> Nice Oblong
08:46:57
<Kat> My internet kicked me off! I'm now back!
08:54:34
<Kat> OF
08:59:46
<Greg (working)> G'morning all, enjoy your morning.
09:00:06
<Kat> Morning Greg! Have a good one
09:01:21
<Katie 🌻> Good morning
09:06:12
<Kevin L™ 🌵> Is it morning or am I still dreaming?
09:06:43
<Kevin L™ 🌵> If Kat got right in I must be dreaming.
09:07:09
<Kat> :lol:
09:07:18
<Kat> Hi Katie
09:07:38
<Mike J> I make a comment about no one being here, and then disappear for an hour and a half. Good morning Kat
09:07:46
<Mike J> (Wasn't ignoring you)
09:08:40
<Kat> Mike J, I know that - figured you were off and running!
09:13:22
<Greg (working)> I tested the controls last night and I was able to log to the cam with no issues. So we will try again at 1600hrs. Later.
09:13:42
<Kat> :daisy:
09:14:04
<Kevin L™ 🌵> I got on last night too
09:14:29
<Katie 🌻> I got in yesterday, too *ducks*
09:14:42
<Kat> I'm thinking we might jus have a fix - maybe I shouldn't say that too soon! LOL
09:18:32
<Katie 🌻> If there is resolution, I hope they know what fixed it. Problems that onset "randomly" and go away "randomly" have a tendency to return "randomly" - maybe hours, maybe days, maybe weeks, or maybe months later.
09:37:02
<Dave from B™> Speaking of problems returning randomly....Good morning everyone!
09:37:45
<Kevin L™ 🌵> Morning
09:42:16
<Kat> Dave from B™, Morning Dave
09:43:37
<Dave from B™> It's awful tempting to go to YNP and e bike from Roosevelt to Slough Creek
09:44:22
<Kevin L™ 🌵> Where would you want the body sent to?
09:44:38
<Kat> Hahaha
09:44:57
<Kat> Dave from B™, I agree - would be sooo fun!
10:03:36
<Kevin L™ 🌵> I guess that Perry Mason music is on.
10:04:04
<Kevin L™ 🌵> And it loaded!
10:09:00
<Kat> Kevin L™ 🌵, Have a good drive!
10:10:21
<Kevin L™ 🌵> Thanks. Have a good day.
10:17:31
<Dave from B™> How fast can a bear possibly run?
10:17:50
<Kevin L™ 🌵> Faster than you can.
10:50:16
<Dave from B™> With TURBO on? Probably maintain 25-30 mph for a few miles
10:51:18
<Jake> :lion:ie
10:51:36
<Dave from B™> Hey, Jake. How is our favorite field reporter doing today?
10:51:59
<Dave from B™> Or, are you home already?
10:53:49
<Jake> back home, back at work
10:54:08
<Kevin L™ 🌵> Work?
10:54:43
<Dave from B™> Jake, you can't say that word in front of Kevin
11:42:25
<KorbenC> Good catch Jarno, that was indeed a big boil! :D
11:45:29
<Kevin L™ 🌵> Splash
12:49:30
<4> NPS prediction wins
13:04:40
<ynpvisitor11> boil
13:05:00
<ynpvisitor11> whoa
13:05:10
<Katie 🌻> big boil!
13:06:01
<ynpvisitor11> I saw a big one like that from Crested Pool a few days before an eruption in 2020
13:14:35
<ynpvisitor11> boiling
13:14:51
<ynpvisitor11> nice view, thanks
13:20:17
<Dave from B™> Giantess erupts with peeps are at Steamboat...welcome to gazing:)
13:20:37
<Dave from B™> Where you are usually in the wrong place:D
13:21:01
<Kevin L™ 🌵> It has happened before
13:24:25
<KorbenC> twice or three times I thinnk, lol
13:25:14
<ynpvisitor11> Dave from B™, you just come back from another trip?
13:27:31
<Kevin L™ 🌵> of

14:53:42
<GO STEAMBOAT> good.
14:54:01

14:54:12
<KorbenC> Brian
14:54:23
<GO STEAMBOAT> thought it might bee
14:54:58
<KorbenC> :P
14:55:04
<KorbenC> You at home or on vacation rn Graham?
14:56:26
<GO STEAMBOAT> full time vacation .... as i am retired
14:56:36

14:56:37
<GO STEAMBOAT> but i am at home
14:57:18
<GO STEAMBOAT> traveling again next week for 3 weeks or so. then back for a few days before YNP
14:58:22
<KorbenC> Grand 1454
15:06:22

15:06:44
<KorbenC> Yup, another 1 burst :(
15:06:58
<KorbenC> G1- I think
15:07:09
<KorbenC> T1Q**
15:13:34
<Kevin L™ 🌵> OF with clunky controls.
15:41:26
<KorbenC> Ehm
15:41:34
<KorbenC> There is a steamboat entry this morning
15:41:53
<KorbenC> best staterical geyser post ever
15:43:19
<Kevin L™ 🌵> I guess Dave wasn't there.
15:44:26
<ynpvisitor11> read everything on the only other GT entry from that person
15:44:53
<ynpvisitor11> observer words, and comment at the bottom of entry
15:45:09
<ynpvisitor11> and duration
15:45:33
<KorbenC> Flagged Kats entry this morning for "lying" hillarious
15:46:41
<KorbenC> I added flags to both, which should help admins realize
15:50:09
<Katie 🌻> I just went to look. The steamboat entry is gone. What a weird act of vandalism
15:50:41
<KorbenC> Admins are on it, removing user I think
15:50:57
<Will Boekel> Thanks for the emails. We have banned the user
15:51:06
<KorbenC> Hi Will, thanks!
15:51:19
<DanS working> :thumbsup:
15:52:10
<KorbenC> I wonder if they were the same user as yesterday, just different accounts
15:52:12
<Kevin L™ 🌵> TY Will
15:52:44
<Will Boekel> just keep reporting them to the support email as that pings the entire team at the same time
15:53:47
<KorbenC> Will, are you heading to the park anytime soon?
15:55:03
<Will Boekel> we will see... honestly my last time there left a sour taste in my mouth.
15:55:07
<Will Boekel> back to work bye
15:55:16
<Kevin L™ 🌵> bye
15:55:21
<KorbenC> Cya later, enjoy
15:57:59
<KorbenC> Will!!!! The user is back on an alt, might be best to do IP ban or something if you can
15:59:00
<Kevin L™ 🌵> Let me know when you are ready Greg. Just in case I won't log out until you are logged in.
15:59:21
<KorbenC> banned again :)
15:59:26
<Greg 🤠> I am ready when you are sir. Any issues with the cam?
15:59:57
<Greg 🤠> Logged in, that was fast
16:00:15
<Kevin L™ 🌵> Just a few. It tossed me off once and a couple of times it took a while to respond.
16:00:36
<Greg 🤠> Sweet, I have not been watching, is bee soon?
16:01:25
<KorbenC> Afternoon Greg
16:01:28
<Kevin L™ 🌵> Good splashes so it should be soon. Had a couple nice Giantess boils too.
16:01:32
<GO STEAMBOAT> it has been splashy
16:02:16
<Greg 🤠> Nice on the giantess splashes
16:02:38
<KorbenC> and evening update for you: Beehive could be anytime, but it may also wait until afterdark or until tommorow, good to keep an eye on it. Giantess having good boils. Riverside probably went by now and was missed, Lion not anytime soon sadly,
16:02:47
<KorbenC> other than that, not much going on :)
16:03:02
<Greg 🤠> :thumbsup:
16:14:00
<Eriic> Hey!
16:14:12
<Greg 🤠> Hi Eric
16:14:31
<Eriic> Hi Greg! Any Great Fountain eruptions today :-D
16:14:51
<KorbenC> Hi Eric
16:15:03
<Greg 🤠> 2
16:15:05
<Greg 🤠> lol
16:15:10
<Eriic> Hey Korben...thanks for the note. They are blocked.
16:15:25
<KorbenC> Eriic, figured, IP block?
16:15:35
<Eriic> Roblocked :-P
16:15:45
<KorbenC> I walked right into that, lmfao
16:15:47
<KorbenC> How has climbing been going?
16:16:17
<Eriic> Going OK...missed my Rainier attempt due to AVI and weather danger, but got a couple hoods in this spring.
16:17:01
<Eriic> is Echinus just diurnal temps on the sensor?
16:17:23
<KorbenC> Yeah, Rainier had a lot of avi danger late in the year this year I think. Glad to hear you are enjoying the snow :)
16:17:26
<Eriic> Any giantess boils happening this summer?
16:17:39
<KorbenC> Eriic, a few really good one this morning
16:17:57
<KorbenC> and as far as I know yes, just dirunal temps
16:18:00
<Eriic> Yep...I had my permits a weak too early...got fresh snow that week and not enough time to settle out.
16:18:13
<Eriic> Cool...thanks.
16:18:27
<Eriic> Hope school is going well for you!
16:18:41
<KorbenC> Eriic, what was the problem with the Avis? Ie, wet slabs, sluffs, or just big persistent weak layers?
16:19:39
<KorbenC> School and climbing are going great, have to start getting ready for this next year soon though, no more disappearing into the mtns. for a week
16:19:48
<Eriic> Weak layers on the upper mountain. Huge slabs that just needed to peel before climbing. It's been good for about a month now, but I haven't had time or permits to get back up there.
16:20:22
<KorbenC> :thumbsup:
16:33:34
<Kevin L™ 🌵> Reed Timmer drove over a boulder and messed up his rental car Korben.
16:35:46
<Kevin L™ 🌵> Sounds like nasty flooding in St Louis.
16:36:09
<Eriic> Old Faithful Rangers get group portrait done on static
16:36:18
<Eriic> Hi Kevin
16:36:43
<Kevin L™ 🌵> Hi Eric.
16:37:27
<Eriic> all dispersing now :-D
16:37:53
<Greg 🤠> OF window
16:38:31
<Eriic> Wish they could figure out the bandwidth for this camera and up the resolution/bitrate back to a reasonable level.
16:38:49
<Eriic> 1280x720 would be a huge step up!
16:38:55
<Greg 🤠> Agreed
16:39:13
<KorbenC> Kevin L™ 🌵, "Reed does that" :P
16:39:14
<Eriic> I think we are like at 5 fps too.
16:39:46
<Eriic> anymore talk of bandwidth upgrades with all the comm infrastructure improvements in the park?
16:39:56
<KorbenC> Eriic, don't be so generous. But I have to ask, is the double "i" in your name on purpose?
16:40:09
<Eriic> no, just a typo
16:40:27
<KorbenC> uhoh, I upset Eric
16:40:31
<Eric> Fixed
16:40:40
<KorbenC> Hi Eric, been a while. Hows climbing?
16:40:44
<Eric> haha
16:40:57
<KorbenC> lol
16:41:57
<Eric> how in the world is the mammoth static webcam down? It literally sits inn the museum in the center of bandwidth and power.
16:42:20
<KorbenC> Dave broke it
16:42:27
<Eric> indoors, with rangers passing it twenty plus times a day.
16:43:01
<Jake> Mammoth is kind of isolated at the moment
16:43:25
<Eric> Hi Jake
16:43:36
<Eric> well, then they should have lots of time to fix the webcam!
16:43:40
<Jake> hello
16:43:41
<KorbenC> Hi Jake, glad you enjoyd the park
16:44:28
<Jake> hmmm, sewage system 💩 or webcam 📷 ?
16:44:58
<Eric> I think you are correct that the same employees do maintenance on both!
16:45:22
<KorbenC> Jake, arent those the same thing?
16:45:41
<Eric> They are much better at the sewage luckily.
16:45:46
<KorbenC> Eric beat me too it :)
16:46:14
<Jake> I like my fecal transport in 1280x720
16:46:38
<Eric> Jake, is your sister still working in the park?
16:47:11
<Eric> hopefully not tasked with sewage repair!
16:48:12
<Greg 🤠> OF time
16:48:48
<Greg 🤠> Rainbows
16:49:25
<Jake> Eric, you must be thinking of someone else
16:50:04
<Eric> @Jake hmmmm, who had a sister working in IT at YNP? Sorry, thought it was you.
16:55:16
<Jake> it would be news to me if I have a sister!
16:56:33
<Kevin L™ 🌵> I used to inspect sewer repairs. Crappy part of the job.
17:07:01
<KorbenC> Eric, you here
17:08:27
<KorbenC> Hi Ben, they are back :)
17:08:43
<BenVL> Noticed
17:08:59
<KorbenC> If an IP bad didn't work, IDK what admins can do
17:09:29
<BenVL> I mean, not that hard to use a VPN
17:09:44
<KorbenC> no, makes it quite hard for admins to block them
17:11:13
<KorbenC> no as in no it isn't**
17:11:47
<BenVL> Ban their specific device? Unsure if that's possible
17:12:00
<KorbenC> no idea, probably is
17:12:21
<KorbenC> well the admins blocked their new acount just now, probably scratching their head on what to do next
17:15:04
<Kat (phone)> Korben, thank you for deleting that wierd flag. Person reason was "Lying"
17:15:47
<KorbenC> They keep getting back on GT and cuasing problems, admins are handling it well :)
17:16:27
<Kat (phone)> It was a new account, no entries! I assume they did the same to others!
17:16:31
<Kevin L™ 🌵> Get his email address and post it to several political organizations.
17:16:40
<KorbenC> lol
17:16:57
<Kat (phone)> :lol:
17:17:11
<Kevin L™ 🌵> Should give him enough spam to feed a 3rd world country.
17:18:00
<BenVL> Maybe the church of scientology too
17:18:22
<Greg 🤠> Kevin, brilliant idear
17:32:52

20:54:46
<Kevin L™ 🌵> No but I guess they were around last week.
20:55:23
<Greg 🤠> We hope so. I never heard what the final outcome was. My guess was a firewall or firmware update
20:58:56
<Will Boekel> FYI the ability to create accounts has been suspended for the time being until we can create some more robust controls
20:59:12
