[12:19:05] <n1> how about yourself?
[12:19:42] <Bytram> okay, thanks.
[12:20:04] <Bytram> could use a bit more sleep, but otherwise, as the saying goes:
[12:20:18] <Bytram> "I'm probably a darn sight better than I think I am"
[12:21:47] <n1> heh
[12:22:41] <Bytram> which, immediately, reminds me of a scene from "Life of Brian"... with the guys on the crucifixes all singing something about looking on the bright side of life

[12:27:40] <takyon_> hey
[12:27:44] <takyon_> cmn32480
[12:28:14] <takyon_> sent you a message on the intenral site thing, then went ahead and submitted a Yahoo! story
[12:28:28] <takyon_> very lulzy
[12:28:53] <Bytram> takyon_: on it!
[12:29:12] <n1> nice
[12:29:47] <takyon_> read the last blockquote
[12:29:52] <Bytram> yep
[12:30:04] <takyon_> I vaguely recalled that buyout attempt, then looked it up and just laughed
[12:30:07] <cmn32480> takyon_, thansk for fixing the title on the titanioum story
[12:30:14] <cmn32480> it was jhust too hard for me to do
[12:30:27] <takyon_> also CBSN just told me Yahoo! was valued at $125 billion at its peak, sheeesh
[12:30:45] <Bytram> takyon_: I'd like toadd a line or two to the yahoo story about what SN's plan to do
[12:30:53] <takyon_> plan to do about what?
[12:30:53] <Bytram> s/toa/to a/
[12:30:53] <sedctl> <Bytram> takyon_: I'd like to add a line or two to the yahoo story about what SN's plan to do
[12:30:56] <takyon_> Yahoo Groups?
[12:30:57] <exec> <Bytram> takyon_: I'd like to add a line or two to the yahoo story about what SN's plan to do
[12:31:11] <Bytram> like if they have email there, or use any of the groups, etc.
[12:31:31] <takyon_> Seems like that would continue. I guess Verizon is more evil than plain Yahoo!?
[12:31:43] <takyon_> but yeah, do what you need to do
[12:32:21] <Bytram> I'd never get a verizon wireless phone after they injected unique IDs on all the web accesses
[12:32:48] <takyon_> ah i remembr
[12:33:04] <takyon_> Yahoo! has a mixed record on digital liberty IIRC
[12:35:10] <n1> seems like verizon got a good deal really
[12:35:43] <Bytram> IIRC yahoo was one of the very first web sites that experienced a DDoS
[12:36:00] <n1> one years revenue or 10% of the companies asset value
[12:36:22] <Bytram> cmn32480: n1: are you guys editing the yahoo story? I've got some changes to save.
[12:36:27] <n1> im not
[12:36:29] <n1> just reading it
[12:36:38] <Bytram> n1: kthnx
[12:36:42] <cmn32480> just reading
[12:36:45] <Bytram> k
[12:38:11] <cmn32480> upsdie to the yahoo thing: we dont' have to hwear abotu it anymore
[12:38:55] <takyon_> "good deal"
[12:39:01] <takyon_> the only thing Yahoo! has is mindshare
[12:39:11] <takyon_> everything they make/do could be replicated for $50 million
[12:39:16] <Bytram> hmmm, breaking news?
[12:39:21] <takyon_> not sure
[12:39:22] <cmn32480> and people like me who are too lazy to change our addresses
[12:39:29] <cmn32480> nah
[12:39:30] <Bytram> and like me, too.
[12:39:36] <cmn32480> that is a couple days old
[12:39:40] <Bytram> ummm, nograb?
[12:39:52] <Bytram> mind if I slot it in as the next story?
[12:40:03] <takyon_> the Yahoo news looks less than 1 hour old
[12:40:07] <takyon_> so might as well
[12:40:10] <Bytram> my thoughts, too.
[12:40:19] <cmn32480> no objectiosn here
[12:40:22] <takyon_> well, it's up to 2 hours old
[12:40:31] <Bytram> say 12:55 UTC... 15 minutes from now
[12:40:33] <cmn32480> just be sure to move something to the end of the queue...
[12:40:37] <Bytram> nod nod
[12:40:39] <cmn32480> piockgs are currently pretty sparse
[12:40:50] <takyon_> i'll submit more if i can
[12:40:51] <Bytram> and hard to spell, too!
[12:41:16] <takyon_> honestly i'd rather have slim pickings than political crap
[12:41:35] <Bytram> doesn't he play country or somethin?
[12:42:06] <takyon_> heheheheheeheheheh m8

[12:45:32] <cmn32480> I thought he was an actor... he was the bomb!
[12:45:59] <takyon_> I prefaced your comment with your handle, bytram
[12:46:05] <Bytram> k
[12:46:31] <Bytram> hmm, do we want to include a list of other coverage? seems to be quite a few in #rss-bot
[12:47:25] <takyon_> if you do, refresh before editing
[12:47:30] <takyon_> and put it on the same line as techcrunch
