[03:20:21] <Bytram> Fnord666: !!
[03:20:29] <Bytram> not terribly helpful, eh?
[03:21:52] <Fnord666> not that one in particular, but generally quite a boon
[03:22:08] <Bytram> Oh, most definitely!
[03:23:07] <Bytram> Had a nice chat with JR today; seems to be in good spirits, all things considered, of course. He sure seemed to enjoy the conversation!
[03:23:26] <Fnord666> excellent!
[03:23:44] <Bytram> yup!
[03:24:22] <Bytram> would be so nice if, some day, I could meet him. Seems to be a straight up nice chap!
[03:26:03] <Fnord666> Yes it would.
[03:26:19] <Fnord666> When's the convention anyway? I know we postponed it a bit....
[03:26:43] <Bytram> what convention?

[03:32:51] <Fnord666> so you are unconventional?
[03:33:06] <chromas> he's cabover
[03:33:43] <Bytram> certainly not a comb-over ... don't have enough hair on my head for that!
[03:35:19] <Bytram> chromas: If you hurry, I have a story sub that can be pushed out before Fnord666 notices it. ;)
[03:36:13] <chromas> I saw one earlier but I figured I'd leave it for him. Minimal work required, so it'll be like a paid vacation :D
[03:36:49] <Fnord666> lol
[03:37:13] <Bytram> Fnord666: He didn't take the bait!
[03:37:14] <Fnord666> exactly like one but without the pay and without being able to go anywhere

[03:37:52] <Fnord666> enforced staycation
[03:38:06] <Fnord666> similar to incarceration in many ways

[03:55:46] <Fnord666> Had to do something to pass the time in purgatory

[04:03:49] <Bytram> also good!
[04:04:40] <Bytram> next: ruh roh, I just pushed our a similar story to this next one with AG Barr
[04:05:11] <Fnord666> oof
[04:05:58] <Fnord666> meh, I think they're different enough
[04:06:32] * Bytram just finished read AG BAR and the ACLU
[04:06:39] <Fnord666> or you could late merge them
[04:07:17] <Bytram> nod nod
[04:07:32] <Fnord666> it's really just their next attempt to subvert strong encryption
[04:07:54] <Bytram> me pauses for a break to contemplate. they are somewhat different... might change ordering of stories, instead
[04:07:59] <Bytram> back soon
[04:08:07] <Fnord666> That would certainly work also
[04:10:01] <Fnord666> How about the NSA has to develop and publish this new miracle encryption algorithm. Cryptographers have at least two years to review and attack it.
[04:10:20] <Fnord666> If it's not broken by then, we can adopt it as a federal standard.
[04:15:27] <Fnord666> It's getting late. Good night all!
[04:15:33] <Bytram> two years is not enough
[04:15:44] <Bytram> yes, it is
[04:15:53] <Bytram> Fnord666++ thank you!
