[22:47:06] * Fnord666 bows slightly
[22:47:50] <Fnord666> like I said, the submitters are the ones to applaud.
[22:48:09] <cmn32480> always helps when you have good material to work from
[22:48:13] <Fnord666> Good articles nicely formatted with good links and references.
[22:48:24] <Fnord666> exactly
[22:49:17] <Fnord666> take a glance at the orig sub for https://soylentnews.org
[22:49:19] <exec> └─ 13Error
[22:49:39] <Fnord666> and tell me what you think of the commentary at the bottom. Leave it in or excise it?
[22:49:45] <Fnord666> please.
[22:50:29] <Fnord666> I looked at the submission queue today and it almost felt like Christmas!

[22:51:40] <charon_> ~gday editorial
[22:51:41] * exec metrosexually poops a loaded diaper of init scripts for editorial
[22:51:47] <Fnord666> howdy charon_

[22:51:53] * exec problematically $action a speck of estrogen $preposition charon_
[22:52:07] <charon_> nice queue. i guess i can take the night off
[22:52:16] <Fnord666> enjoy
[22:52:28] <charon_> but no politics
[22:53:06] <Fnord666> feel free to grab any one you like and swap it for anything out there
[22:54:02] <Fnord666> I meant to run the ukrainian library story and missed it. I'll swap it into Sunday's stories
[22:54:11] <charon_> politics go in between real stories. so that anyone who has it blocked is not missing a story
[22:54:32] <takyon> o that's the reason
[22:54:36] <takyon> got to go bye
[22:54:36] <charon_> google tango is the beginning of evil
[22:55:33] <Fnord666> later takyon. Thanks for the grat subs!

[22:55:41] <sedctl> <Fnord666> later takyon. Thanks for the great subs!
[22:55:43] <exec> <Fnord666> later takyon. Thanks for the great subs!
[22:55:52] <charon_> now you never have to interact with a human again. maybe you can set it to only show you the way to the self checkout
[22:57:07] <Fnord666> I can't see it catching on.
[22:57:32] <Fnord666> Retailers rearrange stuff to keep you in the store longer looking for things.
[22:58:06] <charon_> true. and all the staples in the back so you have to pass the high margin stuff
[22:58:20] <Fnord666> and the restrooms, online pickup, etc.
[22:59:04] <Fnord666> or it seems that way to me
[22:59:18] * cmn32480 wonders how Amazon manages to do that
[22:59:58] <charon_> "People who looked at this item also looked at:"
[23:01:29] <Fnord666> Amazon is their own brand of evil
[23:02:01] <charon_> i generally shop amazon only if there are no other good choices
[23:02:11] <Fnord666> with prices varying based on anything they can know about you, how much you spend, and how likely you are to buy something.
[23:04:06] <charon_> huh, so if i put a bunch of books in my cart like "How to Strech a Dollar" and "Feed your family for $1 a day" i get lower prices?
[23:04:55] <Fnord666> The only way to know is to use tor browser and see how much it costs that way
[23:06:17] <cmn32480> does amazon have a .onion
[23:06:19] <cmn32480> ?
[23:07:51] <charon_> that's interesting... the link in the maize story is wrong
[23:09:06] <Fnord666> we were just discussing that
[23:09:17] <Fnord666> the journal ref at the bottom is right though
[23:09:30] <Fnord666> at the bottom of the sciencedaily article I mean
[23:09:48] <Fnord666> it's like sciencedaily got the pointer to the content/body of the article wrong
[23:13:16] <cmn32480> what kinda pizza shoudl I get?
[23:14:12] <cmn32480> sausage
[23:14:16] <cmn32480> pepperoni
[23:14:19] <cmn32480> jalapenos?
[23:15:42] <charon_> could use this source instead http://www.farmingfutures.org.uk
[23:15:44] <exec> └─ 13Discovery of a gene that significantly increases seed yield in maize | Farming Futures
[23:15:56] <charon_> sausage and mushrooms is my preference
[23:16:12] <Fnord666> love jalapenos
[23:17:03] <Fnord666> so many ways to go with pizza though
[23:17:57] <cmn32480> and a salad
[23:18:16] <charon_> pineapple and ham
[23:18:36] <Fnord666> great on a pizza, terrible in a calzone
[23:18:51] <cmn32480> ^^^^
[23:18:54] <cmn32480> what he said
[23:19:01] <Fnord666> the pineapple doesn't caramelize at all
[23:19:25] <charon_> funny, since it's 98% SUGAR

[23:45:00] <Fnord666> cmn32480 - what "dialect"?
[23:45:17] <cmn32480> poo ping
[23:45:43] * Fnord666 walked into that one
[23:46:10] <Fnord666> or should I say
[23:46:13] <paulej72> Fnord666 is a cmn32480 sock puppet
[23:46:21] <paulej72> it makes sense now
[23:46:40] * Fnord666 stepped right in that one
[23:48:22] <charon_> well said, Fnord666
[23:52:00] <charon_> hah, the oxford comma story is lovely
[23:53:06] <Fnord666> I liked it, although I'm not sure I'm in favor of the outcome.
[23:54:23] <charon_> i can't tell the intent of the statute. i guess that's the point
[23:55:46] <Fnord666> yup
[23:56:33] <Fnord666> guess they should have used a bulleted list
[23:58:28] <charon_> even though i am a fan of the oxford comma, i still would interpret that statute (missing the comma) as if it had one. because the word order would be different if the intent were different. namely, the "or" would come sooner
