[02:14:08] <fyngyrz> lol
[02:15:02] <fyngyrz> assholes couldn't set up a competent system to save their bloody lives, much less administer a reasonable tax system, if they HAD a reasonable tax system, which they don't

[02:26:03] <Bytram> #g sure death and taxes
[02:26:04] <MrPlow> https://en.wikipedia.org(idiom) - "Death and taxes is a common reference to the famous quotation: Our new Constitution is now established, and has an appearance that promises permanency; but in this world nothing can be said to be certain, except death and taxes. — Benjamin Franklin, in a letter to Jean-Baptiste Leroy, 1789. However, Franklin's letter is ..."

[02:26:42] <chromas> Weird. A plain curl -L gets the washington post articles
[02:27:11] <Bytram> so... too many embellishments?
[02:27:15] <Bytram> ;)
[02:29:13] <chromas> Probably
[02:29:18] * chromas peeks at the flags
[02:32:36] * Bytram peeks at chromas
[02:32:41] * Bytram pokes at chromas
[02:32:43] * chromas pokes
[02:32:50] * Bytram pokes back, again
[02:33:09] * Bytram looks for a pig to put in chromas's poke
[02:34:52] <chromas> Probably the UA string. In the Pascal bot I could change that here. Not so in this version
[02:35:57] <Bytram> Huh? Oh. Hmmmm.
[02:36:08] * Bytram loans chromas a hex editor
[02:36:55] <Bytram> wait... do you actually use curl to retrieve the info? If so, there's gotta be a way to specify a User Agent string
[02:37:35] <chromas> libcurl, yeah. I had a custom string set. They probably just didn't like it

[02:38:24] <Bender> karma - chromas: 21
[02:38:33] <Bytram> Blackjack!
[02:38:37] <chromas> I should make it try a bunch of 'em
[02:39:03] * chromas considers setting it to IE6
[02:43:29] * Bytram encounters word soup
[02:44:07] <chromas> Looking at the "Deficiencies Of Cryptographic Currencies" sub?
[02:44:07] <Bytram> chromas: Okay, I submitted the tax crash story.... needs to be hacked down considerably
[02:44:30] <Bytram> submitting just text would take a buncha work to add links;
[02:44:59] <Bytram> submitting raw source was... messy. By the time I hacked out the web 2.0 stuff, started to see 'word soup'
[02:46:17] <chromas> Write up a new sub that just lists all the sources then at the end just says "lol"
[02:52:39] <Bytram> submission is up already... and /me can no longer read it without things getting jumbled
[02:54:04] <Bytram> as it IS time-sensitive, please feel free to slot it in at the time the 'Meteroite Diamond...' story is currently scheduled: https://soylentnews.org
[02:54:05] <upstart> ^ 03Error
[02:54:06] <exec> └─ 13Error
[02:54:20] <Bytram> and move THAT story to the top of the queue
[02:55:08] <Bytram> chromas: with that, I am wiped out and think it's best I head to bed.
[02:55:15] <chromas> g'night
[02:55:15] <Bytram> nice chatting/working with ya
