[03:08:02] <Bytram> yep, eye had it rite.
[04:10:05] * chromas throws curses at that bug
[04:13:12] <Bytram> =g curses tty

[04:16:22] <Bytram> =g exfiltrated
[04:16:23] <systemd> https://www.merriam-webster.com - Exfiltrate | Definition of Exfiltrate by Merriam-Webster
[04:16:35] <Bytram> I thought it was a word!
[04:18:33] <Bytram> I don't know what they used for a dictionary in the Pale Moon browser (forked from Firefox) or for Thunderbird, for that manner, but rarely a day or two goes by without my finding yet another word that one or the other is not aware of. :/
[04:23:04] <chromas> Which language are you using?
[04:23:20] <Bytram> American English
[04:23:56] * Bytram has 26 different dictionaries he has downloaded over the years
[04:24:11] <chromas> I have English (United States) and English (United States, larg)
[04:24:39] <chromas> Of course, the spelling dictionary's name is actually spelled correctly :)
[04:25:24] <chromas> Windows?
[04:26:17] <Bytram> My dictionaries contain anywhere from 17,000 words up to well over 750,000 words
[04:26:33] <Bytram> Well, not so much dictionaries as wordlist files.
[04:26:55] <chromas> Sounds like 750k isn't enough for everybody
[04:28:42] <Bytram> Well its only the 750k+ word wordlists that had "exfiltrate" in it
[04:29:18] * Bytram has another word list with ~840k words, but some are... questionable
[04:29:37] <Bytram> =g upgoer 5
[04:29:38] <systemd> https://xkcd.com - Up Goer Five - xkcd
[04:30:27] * Bytram would like to know what word list he used to identify the 1000 most-commonly-used English words.

[04:33:29] <chromas> Yeah. I've never heard "goer" anywhere in my entire life except for that comic
[04:34:30] <Bytram> I go, you go, it goes, the thing that goes is a goer!
[04:35:03] <Bytram> And, of course, the thing that "goes up" is an "up-goer"!
[04:36:16] <chromas> sounds made up juts for the comic
[04:36:18] <Bytram> Huh! "goer" appears in 25 of my wordlists!

[11:34:02] * spirald is busy hating IRC ...
[11:35:18] <spirald> Anyone around? Why did IRC suddenly decide that my username is already in use? It's not ...
[11:36:00] spirald is now known as spiraldancing
[11:36:38] <spiraldancing> Seriously, WTF?
[11:37:06] * spiraldancing is taking his ball and going home.
[12:10:55] <janrinok> spiraldancing, have you got ZNC installed yet? If you have, you cannot log in twice
[12:11:09] <janrinok> ... and ZNC is always logged in!"
[12:11:49] <spiraldancing> No ZNC yet...
[12:12:07] <janrinok> Ask Deucalion to set it up for you
[12:12:23] * janrinok thought that he had already done it
[12:12:59] <janrinok> anyway - I hope that you are feeling a little better today
[12:15:15] <spiraldancing> Weird flu ... yesterday morning I was much better, by yesterday night, I was back to nearly as sick the first day.
[12:15:30] <spiraldancing> This morning, much better ...
[12:15:35] <spiraldancing> so far.
[12:16:09] <janrinok> that doesn't surprise me. We improve as we sleep, but during the day the body is both active and trying to fight the infection. By the end of the day it often is overloaded and so your condition deteriorates
[12:17:31] <spiraldancing> It's not my normal cycle ... also, less than 2 hours of actual sleep both nights.
[12:19:32] <janrinok> well, that probably wont help much either

[13:48:22] <Bytram> spiraldancing: Sad to hear about the flu returning... no fun at all. Only 2 hours' sleep does not help! Hope you can take a nap, or at least lie quietly so your body can rest and recuperate!
[13:49:07] <spiraldancing> Hola ... I'm Duolingoing on German ... does that count?
[13:50:26] <janrinok> ja, naturlich
[13:51:15] <Bytram> Das stimt!
[13:52:21] <spiraldancing> Vor vielen Jahren hab ich sehr gut Deutsch gesprochen ... aber habe ich viel vergessen ...
[14:04:53] <janrinok> ich auch! Ich habe in Deutschland gewohnt
[14:28:20] <Bytram> Ich habe nur drei Jahren den Deutshe Sprache getsudiert nach mehr als fierzig jahren, und zweimal auf Deutschland (und eins von Ostereich) gearbitet fur ungefahr oct tage jemal nach zwei und zwarzig jahren. Ja, est ist mir auch sehr schwer zu horen, sprechen, lesen oder schreiben!
[14:31:43] <Bytram> Oh, fwiw, I just updated the beg-o-meter.

[20:58:43] <chromas> Well that sucks

[21:11:04] <chromas> bong
[21:11:31] <Bytram> I *just* finished saving some changes I made to the orson bean story
[21:12:07] <Bytram> I'm done with it now, but you might want to load a fresh copy to get my latetst changes
[21:12:41] <chromas> Ah. I'd already saved it. Didn't see missplelings or anything so I just turned it green
[21:12:45] <chromas> I'll Czech it again
[21:14:05] <Bytram> ruh roh!
[21:14:34] <Bytram> Whew!
[21:15:03] * Bytram hit "back" in his browser tab and still has a copy of what he had last saved. =)
[21:15:15] <chromas> Are we doing ~two hours for weekday spacing?
[21:15:28] <Bytram> ~111 minutes
[21:15:29] <chromas> oh I haven't saved since you did again
[21:15:39] <Bytram> okay
[21:15:41] <Bytram> hold on
[21:15:47] <chromas> or since you started previewing it some more
[21:16:21] <Bytram> I have a copy, in my browser, of my changes that I had saved (YAY!) I am now going to go in and see what, if anything, got lost...
[21:16:22] <chromas> yeah your last save is after mine
[21:16:46] <Bytram> when things are okay, I will let you know and we can go on from there. k?
[21:16:46] <chromas> chromas 02-09 21:09:10 updated
[21:16:46] <chromas> martyb 02-09 21:10:47 updated
[21:17:09] <Bytram> I did a couple of saves along the way; can't trust just that
[21:18:10] <chromas> it only shows two marty saves
[21:18:17] <Bytram> Okay, I compared copies and all is okay.
[21:19:03] <Bytram> Yes, but if I loaded it, and *then* you loaded it, and then I saved, then you saved... you would be missing my changes.
[21:19:39] <chromas> Yeah. I wouldn't've seen your changes when I saved, but you'd still have them and your save would overwrite mine
[21:19:44] <Bytram> and... any changes you made would overwrite any changes I made.
[21:21:18] <Bytram> 'cept I *normally* just close the tab after saving it and verifying that it made it out to the stories queue. In this case, I still happened to have that tab lying around, so I could hit "Back" in my browser and recover my changes, if needed. =)
[21:21:51] <Bytram> tl/dr; we are all sorted out and things are good. =)
[21:23:53] <chromas> You can also re-open the tab and get its history back
[21:24:11] <chromas> ctrl-shift-t is the shortcut
[21:25:12] <Bytram> I have found that it does not always work for me. Once I've closed the tab, it is gone. I can re-open a closed tab, but be able to hit "Back" and access prior versions has been not always successful for me.
[21:25:47] <Bytram> That said, it has been a long while since I tried, but it was sufficiently troublesome that I am leary quite of it, now.
[21:27:06] <Bytram> Wow! Browser tabs can certainly accumulate quickly; I must have just closed at least 20 tabs.
