[01:53:09] <chromas> Silly Brits and their jargon
[01:56:17] <Bytram> But its inspiration—the souk, a marketplace where artisans, shoppers, and thinkers alike could engage in conversation as much as commerce—is millenniums old.
[01:58:13] <chromas> Does ebay have conversations or thinking though?
[01:59:50] <Bytram> thinking about conversations
[02:00:09] * Bytram is knackered
[02:00:16] * Bytram yawns
[02:00:16] * MrPlow flips a Skittle into Bytram's gaping mouth
[02:00:26] <Bytram> and... I'm heading to bed.
[02:01:55] <Bytram> have a great night everyone!!
[07:35:35] <chromas> Hm, weird. I don't get a paywall on the NOAA Warshington Thymes article
[07:35:47] <chromas> maybe the paywall requires third-party javascripts
[07:52:00] <janrinok> Well I've just deleted it because I couldn't do anything with it - but feel free to resub it and edit it if you can/wish
[07:52:30] <janrinok> I enabled js, but I couldn't get past the first paragraph of the article
[07:52:34] <chromas> Maybe they're just racist against France
[07:54:06] <janrinok> chromas - I also agree with you regarding the timing between stories. I average around 90 minutes but try to set the minutes to something unpredictable so that stories do not go out as specific times.

[07:55:29] <janrinok> too late
[07:56:26] <janrinok> I can understand wapo being racist against the French, it is a common trait
[07:56:51] <janrinok> er, wapo should be wati?
[07:57:10] <chromas> they all look the same to me
[07:57:14] <chromas> is that racis?
[07:57:48] <janrinok> nope - they all go overboard on aerosol deodorants too
[07:58:04] <janrinok> enough to make my eyes water
[07:58:59] <chromas> That's probably why you couldn't see the rest of the article; the wa-pi/po/whatever had on too much bo spray
[07:59:36] <janrinok> _I_ use a more reasonable amount, but I suppose they might have caught a wiff from a passerby...
[08:00:44] <chromas> Ah, I was thinking more about the news sites being all the same :)
[08:05:40] <janrinok> k, I just misread it
