[14:01:00] <takyon> emoji don't work in dept lines
[14:01:06] <takyon> so I will remove the colon on Alps story
[14:01:18] <takyon> they will just have to guess what it is. or i'll put it in the body somewhere
[14:02:12] <TheMightyBuzzard> takyon, emoji SHOULD work in dept lines
[14:02:30] <takyon> i don't think it did....... hmm
[14:03:09] <takyon> well it works as a character entity: &#128169;
[14:03:17] <TheMightyBuzzard> good nuff
[14:03:26] <TheMightyBuzzard> it woulda got converted to one anyway.
[14:03:38] <takyon> I guess it works completely actually... it just wasn't entered in by bytram...
[14:04:08] * TheMightyBuzzard takes a bow
[14:05:10] <TheMightyBuzzard> hrm, isn't showing up
[14:05:21] <takyon> it might be caching
[14:05:22] <takyon> i removed it
[14:05:27] * TheMightyBuzzard blames paulej72
[14:05:29] * cmn32480 retracts TMB's bow and holds it hostage
[14:05:36] <takyon> no I don't see it either
[14:05:58] <takyon> so it works when previewing the article changes but not on the actual article... I guess...
[14:06:05] <takyon> fuck it, y'all can figure it out
[14:06:23] <takyon> I put a couple of subs in. How you doing cmn
[14:06:54] <cmn32480> awake
[14:06:55] <cmn32480> mostly
[14:07:05] <cmn32480> got the new PC running (mostly) LAST NIGHT
[14:07:09] <cmn32480> stupid caps lock
[14:07:12] <takyon> specs?
[14:07:30] <cmn32480> FX-8350, GTX970, 16GB RAM,
[14:07:48] <cmn32480> spinning rust until I can afford an M.2
[14:08:26] <takyon> you could have waited about half a year and got a Zen AMD and NVIDIA Pascal
[14:08:39] <takyon> 14/16nm each
[14:09:06] <takyon> I guess you're doing some gaming with that, eh
[14:09:11] <cmn32480> good guess
[14:09:24] <cmn32480> problem is that I won't be ablew to afford the newest stuff when it comes out
[14:09:36] <cmn32480> this shoudl keep me going pretty well for at least 4-5 years
[14:09:48] <cmn32480> more if I add another GTX and SLI the pair
[14:10:19] <TheMightyBuzzard> i think paulej72 broke it with a filter a while back. it USED TO work.
[14:10:20] <takyon> the performance gains could be great enough that some Zen AMD chip that costs as much as the 8350 will outperform it
[14:10:24] <takyon> that's speculation though
[14:12:08] <cmn32480> yeah... I'm happy... if I always waited for the next best thing, I'd either be broke or never get anywhere
[14:12:42] <takyon> it's not just the next best thing
[14:12:44] <takyon> it's ZEN
[14:12:52] <takyon> IT WILL SAVE AMD FROM DESTRUCTION
[14:13:00] <cmn32480> ok... so if I calmly waited for the next best thing
[14:13:39] <TheMightyBuzzard> yeah, there's some filters being done on the dept that fuck up unicode
[14:15:11] <takyon> a bug so trivial, it shouldn't even be fixed
[14:15:26] <takyon> when I joined as an editor I was told not to put too much punctuation in dept. lines, or caps
[14:15:29] <takyon> now we're talking emoji
[14:16:28] <TheMightyBuzzard> ya, pretty sure paulej72 broke it when he went crazy with adding filters to everything. i can't even get it to show when directly added to the db.
[15:27:23] <nick> takyon, i never got the memo about the dept. titles
[19:46:56] <takyon> hello
[19:47:21] <takyon> nick: it might have been something in the wiki, or something bytarm told me
[19:47:30] <takyon> I do remember it though
[19:47:41] <cmn32480> i vaguely recall same
[19:47:51] <cmn32480> more of a suggestion than guideline
[19:48:47] <takyon> that reminds me of some line from Pirates of the Carribean
