[14:30:56] <janrinok> chromas are you on here?
[14:31:40] <cmn32480> wasa matter? Cat got your vocal chords?
[14:31:53] <janrinok> no - the surgeon has .... :)
[14:32:04] <cmn32480> how'd it go?
[14:32:11] * cmn32480 asks out of actual concern
[14:32:45] <janrinok> Your Commodore 64 story has a bit of a click-baity ending. Can you add an explanation about what the rest is about?
[14:33:04] <janrinok> chromas ^
[14:33:21] <janrinok> hi cmn32480 - thanks for your messages
[14:33:25] <cmn32480> I figured... I haven't been able to post recently...
[14:33:38] <cmn32480> we worry about you
[14:33:53] <cmn32480> gotta look after out geriatric EiC
[14:34:04] <janrinok> voice is fine, but as I said I can't be accused of having a boring life. Day to day is still a bit hectic
[14:34:28] * cmn32480 celebrates that the voice is fine.... even if he has never heard it
[14:35:03] <janrinok> you are probably better off for having not heard it. However, I was able to sing again for the first time in 18 months this morning
[14:35:23] * cmn32480 puts Steven Hawking's computer adn voice synthesizer up on Ebay
[14:35:39] <cmn32480> driving the birds out of your garden, eh?
[14:36:49] <janrinok> if only it worked on the weeds as well ....
[14:36:58] <cmn32480> nope...
[14:37:12] <cmn32480> that requires mystical powers and Unicorn Poop fertilizer
[14:38:40] <fyngyrz> I desire some input.
[14:39:03] <janrinok> I lack the mystical powers, but I think I have the unicorn poop somewhere out there
[14:39:12] * cmn32480 suggests less garlic in the sauce
[14:39:40] <fyngyrz> upcoming article has title and text containing "NO dark matter" - I humbly submit that the scare capitalization should be wiped out, and "no dark matter" replace it
[14:40:23] <janrinok> OK, will do
[14:40:34] <fyngyrz> Looks like the National Enquirer. Which, for our non-US friends, is not something you really want to look like
[14:40:48] <fyngyrz> I can do it, I just wanted to make sure wasn't stepping on toes
[14:41:04] <janrinok> done - it's a quote from the source but I've removed it
[14:41:16] <fyngyrz> pkee dokie
[14:41:22] <fyngyrz> okee, even
[14:41:29] <janrinok> pkee okee to you too
[14:42:20] * fyngyrz virtually /smakes janrinok
[14:42:24] <janrinok> I'm just trying various methods to get in touch with chromas, his Commodore story could do with an extra line or two
[14:42:32] <cmn32480> #smake janrinok
[14:42:49] <cmn32480> WTF? Where is MrPlow?
[14:43:00] <janrinok> that bot doesn't appear to be working on here he he he
[14:43:48] <cmn32480> or anywhere else on this server
[14:44:46] <cmn32480> I yelled at TMB but he is out someplace for some period of undetermined time
[14:45:01] <janrinok> probably killing our aquatic wildlife
[14:45:07] <cmn32480> likely
[14:45:20] <fyngyrz> TMB be fishing
[14:45:26] <cmn32480> I think he said somethign about visiting family
[14:45:31] <janrinok> wot I said
[14:45:35] <fyngyrz> hence, the fishing
[14:47:17] <fyngyrz> Love the fact checking article
[14:47:41] <janrinok> looks like most of the latest subs require a lot of processing to get on to the front page
[14:49:35] <janrinok> nurse - brb
[15:02:23] <janrinok> gtg and start cooking now. Endive with ham in a cheese sauce, plus some green beans as a side
[15:02:53] <janrinok> be back on later
[15:06:20] <fyngyrz> yum
[15:17:54] <chromas> oh I didn't see the highlights
[15:22:53] <cmn32480> did you see the lowlifes?
[15:24:53] * chromas updates
[15:25:14] <chromas> I did. Unfortunately, it turns out I was looking into a mirror :(
[15:27:52] * cmn32480 is happy you weren't looking at #editorial

[16:19:05] <mrpg> HELLO
[16:24:38] <mrpg> EEEEE thank you. Remember to click "like" and subscribe.
[16:24:58] <mrpg> In 2 days we have an important festivity, and it's not festivus, so look for stories for april 1st.
[16:25:57] <fyngyrz> also known as "how to make soylent as useless as slashdot on April 1st for no good reason at all"
[16:29:31] <mrpg> No, we are supposed to look for real stories that seem unreal.
[16:29:40] <mrpg> Like last year.
[16:33:52] <fyngyrz> hmm. Well, that's interesting
[16:34:50] <fyngyrz> so pretty much anything Trump says, then
[16:39:45] <mrpg> Yes, maybe one, the less politics the better.

[21:39:30] <chromas> Do the April 1 stories need to be accepted and hidden so nobody sees teh secrets?
[23:57:37] <Bytram> chromas: excellent question! Non-adminy users have some visibility into the upcoming story queue, but I am not familiar with what restrictions, if any, they have on what they can see there -- I expect it is *some* subset of what I can see, but do not know how much is revealed
