[00:20:08] <mrpg> "Facebook TV" submision is news or random?
[00:20:24] <mrpg> is crap. but there's no /main page/crap
[00:25:47] <mrpg> this looks like someones blog. I'll use another source.
[00:34:26] <mrpg> 15 stories posted in a row! THE SITE IS MINE!
[00:34:28] <mrpg> https://www.youtube.com
[00:34:28] <upstart> ^ 03The Park Is Mine (1986) - Trailer - YouTube
[00:38:22] <mrpg> I chose random for facebuk tv
[00:40:42] * chromas and 3 others like this.
[00:59:34] <mrpg> this aborted fetus mini rap is too funny. https://youtu.be sorry
[00:59:35] <upstart> ^ 03Die When I'm Young - Rachel Bloom - YouTube ( https://www.youtube.com )
[01:08:50] <Bytram> mrpg: a heroic effort, indeed! The trick is to post *all* the stories for an entire day... and it looks to me that charon rained on your parade. :(
[01:09:01] <Bytram> still an amazing accomplishment, well done!
[01:09:57] <mrpg> Congratulations on your 500000000000 comment !
[01:10:38] <mrpg> If I post two more it'll be 24 hours of me :-)
[01:13:43] * Bytram goes to loook for a breaking news story ;)
[01:14:51] <nick> good work mrpg
[01:16:00] <mrpg> thank you :) I got my new glasses today, that's why.

[01:34:01] <takyon> ok
[01:34:01] <upstart> ^ 03Error
[01:34:07] <takyon> what stops them from spreading SUPER AIDS?
[01:34:48] <takyon> sure, it's an "ask soylent" that doesn't require a news article, but it seems like dumb fearmongering better suited for the journal
[01:35:03] <nick> ugh
[01:35:07] <nick> agreed, takyon
[01:36:17] <takyon> nick, I'm sure you've breathed at least once or twice in the last few seconds. The cold truth is that you have already contracted the CIA's Super AIDS. It's incurable.
[01:36:44] <takyon> oh and please take deep breaths
[01:36:52] <nick> that explains where the cough came from
[01:37:46] <Bytram> takyon: did you look at the story?
[01:38:22] <Bytram> I'm open to being convinced otherwise, but I added another paragraph to the story noting much the same concern and trying to expand it for further discussion
[01:38:44] <Bytram> s/much the same/some/
[01:38:44] <sedctl> <Bytram> I'm open to being convinced otherwise, but I added another paragraph to the story noting some concern and trying to expand it for further discussion
[01:38:47] <exec> <Bytram> I'm open to being convinced otherwise, but I added another paragraph to the story noting some concern and trying to expand it for further discussion

[01:39:58] <takyon> 1sec
[01:40:27] <Bytram> oh, and I just wanna say one other thing -- what a hugely productive day!
[01:40:29] <Bytram> teamwork++
[01:40:29] <Bender> karma - teamwork: 136
[01:41:20] <Bytram> Time's up! I'm *hungry*
[01:41:26] <Bytram> biab
[01:41:26] <takyon> well
[01:41:33] <takyon> I'll look up some bioterror articles
[01:41:44] <takyon> if there's something relevant from April/May, I'll add it to the end
[01:43:20] <nick> does just make me wonder how/why cafebabe took this line of thinking
[01:43:46] <nick> what did they see/read or think about that made them go 'this is a question worth asking'
[01:44:08] <takyon> they caught the flu
[01:44:14] <takyon> or herpes
[01:45:05] <takyon> ok I'm editing the article
[01:51:43] <takyon> updated
[01:52:24] <Bytram> back
[01:52:40] <Bytram> just found a relevant story posted on Ars... give me a few moments to grab the link

[01:53:45] <takyon> i added like 6 articles
[01:53:47] <takyon> refresh and check it out
[01:54:02] * Bytram is looking at it now
[01:54:12] <takyon> that's less relevant than what I added

[02:06:32] * Bytram just sent an e-mail to JR -- miss him, saddened his continued absence suggests all is not well, we're thinking about him and wish him and his family the best.
[02:13:10] <takyon> good
[02:13:15] <takyon> thanks for sending the email

[02:13:28] <takyon> subbed a small bit of something
[02:13:53] <takyon> next stories I should sub are a china quantum computing story and maybe the human head transplant story
[02:14:51] <Bytram> takyon: you're welcome
[02:14:58] <Bytram> the diane feinstein one?
[02:15:04] <takyon> clearly
[02:15:16] <Bytram> k
[02:15:18] <Bytram> clicky
[02:15:18] <takyon> funny because one of the 2016 articles mentions a $1.3 million figure
[02:15:35] <nick> i want a story with those topics combined, Chinese head transplant onto a quantum computer or something
[02:15:39] <Bytram> oh, looks like nick is already on it
[02:16:05] <takyon> the head transplant story is quite interesting and incredibly disputed
[02:16:07] <takyon> here I'll link it
[02:16:19] <takyon> http://www.nextbigfuture.com
[02:16:19] <upstart> ^ 03Rat Head transplant test leading to human head transplant | NextBigFuture.com

[02:17:36] <Bytram> head tip
[02:23:58] <takyon> head nod
[02:24:09] <takyon> does anybody have a unique idea for a mac and cheese I can make?
[02:24:26] <takyon> let's just say my friends are competitive about mac and cheese
[02:26:33] <nick> i have never made mac n cheese
[02:27:20] <Bytram> use monterey jack, and can use any kind of pasta -- need not be elbow macaroni
[02:27:45] <nick> so as is tradition, i would go with bacon, it might not be unique but it's never a bad idea
[02:27:47] <Bytram> well, lasagna might not work out the best, you get the idea
[02:28:00] <Bytram> nick++ rofl
[02:28:00] <Bender> karma - nick: 15
[02:28:31] <takyon> bacon might be what this needs
[02:28:34] <takyon> this may be the time for bacon
[02:28:36] <Bytram> are we talking stove-top? or baked?
[02:28:39] <takyon> baked
[02:28:50] <nick> it's always time for bacon
[02:28:56] <takyon> I wonder if olives would go well with the bacon
[02:29:01] <Bytram> cheddar is also a good choice for the cheese
[02:29:03] <nick> yes they would
[02:29:11] <Bytram> gren, black, or Greek?
[02:29:14] <takyon> I also have a ton of capers from costco
[02:29:20] <takyon> I think I would go green
[02:29:23] <nick> i'd think green olives
[02:29:31] <nick> green olives and bacon and you got something unique
[02:29:32] <takyon> so it doesn't color clash so mcuh
[02:30:45] <Bytram> I'd think it really depends on the cheese
[02:30:57] <takyon> I have a lot of aged cheddar I could use
[02:33:29] <Bytram> Mild? sharp? extra sharp?
[02:34:24] <Bytram> maybe add in some grated parmesan or romano, too.
[02:35:06] <Bytram> mess with 'em a bit... add a 1/2 tsp of nutmeg
[02:49:40] <takyon> sharp aged new york i guess
[02:49:58] <takyon> for spices I'll probably go liberal with the garlic powder
[02:50:04] <takyon> and then add some garlic powder
[02:57:08] <Bytram> Hey! Did you think of maybe adding some garlic powder?
[03:06:40] <takyon> No!
[03:07:28] <Bytram> takyon: s/.$/ problem!/
[03:07:28] <sedctl> <Bytram> <takyon> No problem!
[03:07:30] <exec> <Bytram> <takyon> No problem!

[06:55:04] <takyon> i overlooked it big league
