[00:01:11] <NCommander> Give me a few minutes, and I can create a "On by default" section, "Off By Default" section
[00:06:29] <paulej72> NCommander: I would rather have the on by default ones just be childeren of the main page. then have the others that are not children of the main page be selectable as on. As of right now the nexus that are sibilings with the main page are on and unselectable. (forced always on) and we do not want that.

[00:07:04] <monopoly> Title: Abolishing minimum wage vs gay &#34;cure&#34; centers, guess which people are mad about: SoylentNews Submission
[00:10:45] <paulej72> Subsentient: I am sort of on the side that minimum wage laws can be detimental to the ecconmy. so it would be not too hard to put this one on the bottom of my list of things that are bad about this bill
[00:12:20] <NCommander> paulej72, we could do that, though we still need a way to get all nexuses to show up, and then if the user doesn't have defaults, set some
[00:14:09] <NCommander> Holy ****
[00:14:13] <NCommander> Subsentient, I'm publishing that
[00:14:48] <chromas> unedited?
[00:15:18] <NCommander> Subsentient, I'm striking the last bit
[00:15:19] <NCommander> Is this sickening or what? The thing that people are mad about is gay camp when they're threatening minimum wage in a severely crippled economy, and trying to remove the guaranteed right to vote.
[00:15:19] <NCommander> I am in disbelief. People are stupid.
[00:15:23] <NCommander> Subsentient, please post that as a comment
[00:17:37] <NCommander> Subsentient, its live

[00:18:24] <NCommander> chromas, there was one article in the queue that won't go out for awhile
[00:18:52] <AndyTheAbsurd> NCommander: Every time I think I've seen the stupidest that humans can be and still have sufficient brain function to speak, I find that I have once again overestimated the number of functioning neurons needed for speech.

[00:28:50] <AndyTheAbsurd> yay my reddit karma has increased
[00:30:01] <chromas> Mine's still 1
[00:30:12] * chromas forgot about reddit
[00:31:26] <paulej72> I am having a ball looking at barrapunto. They have the same shitty slash code that we had to deal with, but since they were on an older version, they probably did not have as much d2 crap to deal with
[00:35:23] <NCommander> paulej72, isn't it fun looking at a slash site (or slashdot) and knowing what powers it :-)?
[00:35:36] <paulej72> yea
[00:35:37] <NCommander> paulej72, my guess is they forked off somewhere in 2005-2006
[00:35:45] <paulej72> T_2_5_0_152
[00:35:50] <NCommander> Or that
[00:36:09] * NCommander notes once we have the bugs cleaned up, we should probably reach out to them to help them get on modern code
[00:36:40] <NCommander> AndyTheAbsurd, .... you couldn't have posted a link to SN? :-/
[00:36:55] <paulej72> NCommander: yes, but this issue is we may have deleted a plugin that they really like
[00:37:17] <NCommander> paulej72, undelete is *always* an option :-)
[00:38:30] <NCommander> paulej72, so, going back to nexuses, what do you need from me? :-)
[00:38:42] <paulej72> NCommander: I wish that the slash devs put a date in that upgrades file for each version
[00:40:15] <paulej72> NCommander: a design document with how you want everything to work. I don’t want to make changes and find out that it is the exact opposite of what you expected :)
[00:41:04] <TheMightyBuzzard> someone find a genie?
[00:41:23] <paulej72> NCommander: It seems like we can deploy nexuses right now that are children of the main page and they will work as ecpected, other than we need to style the pages.
[00:41:43] <Bender> [SoylentNews] - Texas Republicans Adopt Extremely Controversial Platform - http://sylnt.us - unbelievable
[00:42:45] <paulej72> NCommander: if you want to install a meta nexus on prod, then we can do that with only some css changes to make that work. We can then implement the full nexus support for 14.08.
[00:43:00] <NCommander> paulej72, well, I would have liked a DF nexus (non-default)
[00:43:06] <NCommander> paulej72, but my though was relatively simple
[00:43:16] <NCommander> We have a set of nexuses which are default/on for ACs
[00:43:32] <NCommander> And the nexuses which are off by default (i.e., dwarf fortress, or a community run one)
[00:43:33] <ciri> [Google translate] no (en -> de): unsere fe sind stayin.
[00:45:02] <paulej72> NCommander: it seems that code will take a while to develop. I can make it a priority, but I would not want to push it out without a lot of testing.
[00:45:30] <NCommander> paulej72, it seems relatively simple */2 cents*
[00:45:42] <NCommander> paulej72, I'd like to have a filter for meta though, so peope can stop bitching about it
[00:45:57] <NCommander> Perhaps also one for politics
[00:46:45] <NCommander> paulej72, lets get the lowhanging fruit, fix the CSS, and delete the check on disabling too many sections
[00:46:48] <paulej72> NCommander: I think that I would need to mimic the code I have in place for slashboxes to do the default on and off. That was a lot of code that had to be changed.
[00:46:57] <NCommander> paulej72, fair enough
[00:47:07] * NCommander wonders if we can have nexus specific /boxes >:-)
[00:48:29] <paulej72> NCommander: yes I think for a point release fixing the css and disabling the stupid minium box would be enough. I can have that ready in a few days.
[00:49:19] <paulej72> NCommander: I am going to set meta on dev to be a child of the main page as that is how we will initially run it.
[00:51:15] <NCommander> paulej72, alright. We also probably should have the nexus bit of the line be underlined

[01:15:31] <TheMightyBuzzard> okay, done beating my head against a wall for the day. have yet to figure out what kind of insanity was happening between dev and vm.
[01:16:46] <paulej72> NCommander: when you updated the topics, did you put the Nexus and Topics in? and did you make the Main Page a child of Nexus?
[01:18:24] <NCommander> paulej72, I did it in the database directly because the topic creation page in backslash is fucking twichy as hell

[01:19:55] <NCommander> paulej72, ???
[01:21:33] <paulej72> NCommander: i made meta a child of main page. now when I set my prefs Nexus and Topics are set in my prefs to story_never_topic and thus I do not see a bunch of stories
[01:24:41] <paulej72> NCommander: not sue what is going on here, but I just looked at prod and what was there is the same excetp for meta. I’ll need to track down what is causing the issue.

[01:30:35] <NCommander> paulej72, I didn't make any
[01:30:41] <NCommander> bucket58, no, I need to fix that

[06:28:11] <cykros> so everyone by now i assume has talked with eugene goostman
[06:28:23] <cykros> and realized how big of a sham this clickbait story of the year has been.
[06:28:34] <arti> wat
[06:28:42] <cykros> i got him to tacitly admit to not being a human :-)
[06:28:54] <cykros> arti: the story going around everywhere is that a chatbot beat the turing test.
[06:28:55] <arti> well on the internet nobody knows you're a dog
[06:29:02] <cykros> http://default-environment-sdqm3mrmp4.elasticbeanstalk.com there's the chatbot.
[06:29:03] <monopoly> Title: EG Homepage
[06:29:18] <cykros> tell me you can go a minute without it being painfully obvious
[06:29:21] <arti> i saw the story but didn't check it out
[06:29:30] <cykros> even assuming it's a 13 year old non-native-english speaker.
[06:29:45] <arti> let's see it do something in japanese
[06:29:46] <cykros> i only did because my roommate got me all worked up over it
[06:29:57] <cykros> lol, let's see it do something in english that's impressive first
[06:29:58] <ciri> I find most impressive though is the first 16k.
[06:29:59] <cykros> it's an alicebot.
[06:30:11] <cykros> like, barely modified, if at all.
[06:30:13] * arti pets ciri
[06:30:23] <juggs> it did technically pass the Turing Test as greater than 30% of the judges were convinced. That was Turing's prediction.
[06:30:27] <cykros> i used to run one on eggdrop
[06:30:47] <arti> 30% wow
[06:30:48] <cykros> juggs: the story is "moron has been found who thought an alicebot was a human. more at 11"
[06:30:58] <juggs> pretty muc yes
[06:31:02] <cykros> yea. 30% of 3 judges.
[06:31:04] <juggs> much*
[06:31:48] <juggs> The Turing Test is not paid a great deal of attention in real AI circles anyway so it's all a load of ~meh~
[06:32:01] <arti> maybe they can get a cool name like MENSA
[06:33:30] <arti> so what's new gents?
[06:33:40] <cykros> well sure, but the turing test would be useful for things like, well, providing really basic tech support
[06:33:49] <arti> "reboot sir."
[06:33:52] <cykros> or, more in the criminal sphere, social engineering scams.
[06:34:05] <arti> "are you sure you want to buy 100 penis pills?"
[06:34:17] <arti> "don't you want the best for your kids?"
[06:34:26] <cykros> but if you talk to this bot for a few sentences you realize that it's not even as intelligent as your average porn site popup "hey sexy, looking to have a good time tonight in YOUR HOMETOWN"
[06:34:49] <arti> i'd have those porn site things fed back into an rss thing in my room and laugh my ass off
[06:34:56] <cykros> like, sure, turing test != we have sentient AI, but it'd still be something
[06:35:01] <mrcoolbp> omg that bot is not good at all
[06:35:05] <cykros> this story is unconvincing at best even for reaching THAT
[06:35:25] <cykros> yea, i did get it to try to convince me that i'm a computer though
[06:35:32] <cykros> so i give it 50% extra credit xkcd points.
[06:35:39] <mrcoolbp> nice
[06:35:49] <mrcoolbp> it was antagonizing me from the start

[06:36:07] <mrcoolbp> it avoided every question I asked it
[06:36:23] <cykros> it repeatedly asked me where i was from despite my having a conversation with it about where i was from, and took a lot of coaxing to even acknowledge that boston is a place.
[06:36:24] -!- Konomi [Konomi!~Konomi@Soylent/Users/189/Konomi] has joined #Soylent
[06:36:28] <arti> what i'd do is have the answers fed back to other users
[06:36:36] <arti> "are you a bot?" you: "no, you're a bot!"
[06:36:39] <arti> other person etc.
[06:36:48] <mrcoolbp> cykros: where in Boston?
[06:37:04] * mrcoolbp is in metro area
[06:37:06] <cykros> heh, it just dodged the question of "i'm from boston. do you know where that is?"
[06:37:12] <arti> i wonder how much space you'd need to store stuff like that
[06:37:18] <arti> wikipedia sized?
[06:37:38] <mrcoolbp> cykros: NCommander is currently floating around boston, 5000 points if you spot him = )
[06:37:40] <cykros> mrcoolbp: well, i'm not terribly in the habit of giving precise location out over irc, you understand. but i am outside the city proper in one of the nearby suburbs
[06:37:56] * mrcoolbp met him in meatspace on friday in one of the suburbs
[06:37:58] <arti> youre out of milk cykros
[06:38:03] <cykros> heh, if you play ingress, i'm sure you'll run into me though :-P
[06:38:12] <arti> you mean battery drain the game?
[06:38:30] <cykros> lol, i have a powerbank, they're not terribly expensive.
[06:38:35] * mrcoolbp has never played ingress
[06:38:37] <cykros> and my dog loves it
[06:38:52] <cykros> it's also how i met randall munroe
[06:38:57] <mrcoolbp> whoa
[06:38:59] <mrcoolbp> cool
[06:39:03] <cykros> (btw, boston area ingress players, he's "Player".)
[06:39:20] <cykros> yea, we talked for a moment, then he ran off to watch an iridium flare.
[06:39:22] <arti> wonder what they do with all the data
[06:39:23] * mrcoolbp was thinking about asking Randall if he'd help with a soylent graphic
[06:39:36] <mrcoolbp> cykros: was he cool?
[06:40:04] <cykros> mrcoolbp: i mean, i'm an enemy agent and all that, but yea, he was nice enough. definitely the kind of awkwardish nerd you'd expect, but not a dick or anything
[06:40:26] <cykros> and i mean, i came up to him while preventing him from blasting some portals and going "hey man, i like your webcomic"
[06:40:33] <cykros> so idk, i wouldn't expect too much there.
[06:40:55] <mrcoolbp> lol
[06:41:17] <cykros> ingress: foursquare with space noises.
[06:41:27] <mrcoolbp> cykros: if we have a public meetup, would you come? NCommander has been floating that idea around, we seem to have a lot of people in this area
[06:41:44] <cykros> yea, i'd consider it. i work weekends though generally, as i work in a restaurant
[06:41:50] <mrcoolbp> me too
[06:42:11] * mrcoolbp works in Natick
[06:43:02] <cykros> i hope ncommander heeds my advice about never doing more than 24.5 mph in amherst, nh
[06:43:23] <arti> small town police?
[06:43:23] <cykros> my gf's mom got put in cuffs up there. they're rabid about their speeding tickets.
[06:43:24] <mrcoolbp> I doubt he'll make it that far west
[06:43:30] <arti> man that sucks
[06:43:45] <cykros> yea, all that live free or die is great and all, but they have to fund the budget somehow.
[06:43:48] <arti> guess that's a perk to living somewhere where real crime occurs :P
[06:43:56] <mrcoolbp> arti: yup
[06:44:00] <cykros> speeding tickets and underage tobacco/alcohol is the big moneymaker.
[06:44:06] <arti> cykros, i guess carry a IRS business card
[06:44:10] <arti> an*

[15:02:47] <mechanicjay> :)

[18:35:52] <cykros> that's okay, he's no less turing test compliant than eugene goostman.
[18:36:32] * mrcoolbp was so dissapointed by E.G.
[18:36:55] <cykros> i would like to see the code they used, because i really think it was a very minimally configured alicebot.
[18:37:04] <cykros> i also would like to meet the judge that thought it was a person
[18:37:21] <mrcoolbp> yeah srlsly
[18:37:21] <cykros> because seeing the bot was nothing even remotely novel. but that person, my god, that'd be something to experience.
[18:37:36] <cykros> i imagine they probably work in politics.
[18:37:43] <mrcoolbp> hah
[18:37:51] <Blackmoore> i suspect that the judge would fail the turning test.
[18:38:12] <cykros> was that a typo? or am i missing a great layer to a joke here?
[18:38:34] <cykros> s/turning/turing/ ?
[18:40:42] <Blackmoore> typo
[18:41:12] <Blackmoore> perhaps if we put the judge on a large turntable..
[18:41:28] <mrcoolbp> that might exascerbate the issue
[18:41:37] <DrMag> That probably was the test...
[18:41:43] <DrMag> At first, every judge knew it was a bot.
[18:41:49] <DrMag> Then they spun them all around a few dozen times.
[18:41:53] <mrcoolbp> hah
[18:41:58] <DrMag> That way 33% of them changed their minds.
[18:44:08] <Blackmoore> well, if you know it is a bot you aren't going to judge it fairly.
[18:44:32] <DrMag> Unless you're really dizzy.
[18:44:42] <Blackmoore> but telling the judge that it's a youg boy with a translation problem..
[18:45:03] <Blackmoore> that isn't right either
[18:45:03] <cykros> i understand confirmation bias, but it really took no more than 3 sentences with it where i avoided being too mean for it to pretty obviously show itself as a bot
[18:45:09] <cykros> i've seen more convincing bots on yahoo chat
[18:45:12] <cykros> YEARS ago.
[18:46:27] <cykros> it asked where i was from, so I said "boston, do you know where that is?" and the response had absolutely nothing to do with location or boston whatsoever.
[18:46:35] <cykros> and then it patently denied ignoring my question.
[18:46:42] <cykros> acting offended that i suggested it.
[18:46:55] * cykros shrugs
[18:47:01] <cykros> i hope one day to be impressed. this isn't that day.
[18:47:42] <mrcoolbp> ^^
[18:52:36] <TheMightyBuzzard> okay, i figured out how i CAN do unicode in slash, now i have to figure out how i SHOULD
[18:53:44] <Blackmoore> I've been the bastard who breaks the bot by stringing nonsense together.
[18:54:07] <TheMightyBuzzard> good on ya
[18:54:24] <Blackmoore> a chatbot will assume that it is a real sentence and try to respond

[19:02:00] <AndyTheAbsurd> I haven't gotten anything good out of mine in a couple of days :(
[19:03:15] <cykros> i've been terrible about staying up with mine lately
[19:03:23] <cykros> i always have this 2-3 day backlog to get through
[19:03:41] <cykros> work and home life have a way of pushing RSS/ATOM to the back burner.
[19:03:51] <AndyTheAbsurd> same here
[19:06:12] <cykros> i'm seriously starting to consider removing most of my non-tech news sources. BBC just fills my reader up with such important frontpage headlines as "Thai beauty queen quits over jibe"
[19:06:35] <cykros> though i also just saw Korean Grandmothers Who Sell Sex and my curiosity has been piqued.
[19:06:44] <AndyTheAbsurd> those never even made into mine
[19:06:53] <AndyTheAbsurd> I can't be bothered with that kind of bullshit
[19:06:54] <n1> cykros, the Korea story is quite interesting I thought.
[19:06:58] -!- AshleyWaffle has quit [Ping timeout: 240 seconds]
[19:07:04] <cykros> i try to stay rounded out enough to still see when the important big stuff happens
[19:07:09] <cykros> but the noise is atrocious.
[19:07:25] <cykros> n1: yea, it's one of 400 in my BBC feed to read today.
[19:07:29] <cykros> the rest is garbage.
[19:07:44] <cykros> i go weeks between bothering to open BBC articles
[19:07:54] <n1> I tend to check the BBC News on their own app
[19:08:11] <n1> Maybe inherent bias of being UK based.
[19:08:32] <cykros> idk, i use RSS for news because of how much faster it tends to be. no flashy pictures, videos, slow page loading times, etc.
[19:08:41] <cykros> just text headlines i can navigate with arrow keys
[19:08:51] <cykros> though if you're using it on a tablet/phone that makes sense
[19:09:15] <n1> I use a mix of everything really
[19:10:00] <cykros> i use the bbc as an example, but all of my mainstream news just disappoints regularly.
[19:10:39] <n1> I agree, I check 'mainstream' news every day, they're usually not that great. I do check the worst though...
[19:11:02] <n1> The reason for that is because it's no good being in my own bubble, I have to read and try to understand other pespectives and opinions.
[19:11:17] <n1> Just because I disagree doesn't mean it's not helping for the opinions for millions of others.
[19:11:27] <n1> Or just showcasing what 'normal' people find interesting
[19:11:27] <AndyTheAbsurd> n1: "the worst" being the Daily Fail?
[19:11:40] <n1> could well be, AndyTheAbsurd...
[19:11:53] <cykros> heh, i just don't like having people ask me about some big news thing at work and being like "i didn't hear about that" when it's something that everyone in the hemisphere is talking about.
[19:12:20] <cykros> no tv, no radio...if i can my mainstream news sources, i end up pretty cut off from the world outside of what makes tech news sites
[19:12:44] <AndyTheAbsurd> the old place that I worked, almost all they ever talked about was sports...all I wanted to talk about was science.
[19:12:45] <n1> It was a family member that actually told me about the Russian hacker that made international news...
[19:12:53] <n1> Felt ashamed...
[19:13:03] <cykros> heh, yea, idk how long it took me to hear about snowden
[19:13:10] <cykros> i started noticing nsa in headlines i glossed over
[19:13:24] <cykros> but just figured all they were talking about seemed to be what we all knew the nsa does anyway, right?
[19:13:29] <cykros> then i noticed people seeming surprised
[19:13:30] <ciri> Looks like new information on any of those guys telling you to "is people!".
[19:13:32] <cykros> so i figured i'd check it out.
[19:13:47] <n1> AndyTheAbsurd, i get very confused/blank looks when people ask if i follow sports and i say that i do not.
[19:14:04] <arti> it's almost like we all have different interests
[19:14:12] <cykros> literally following sports can be a great way to find drunkenly lost smartphones.
[19:14:16] <n1> "not even football?" "are you sure you don't?"
[19:14:24] <arti> how about televising some demo party compos
[19:14:54] <n1> I like sports, but i can watch a game or what ever and enjoy it, but i can't be a 'fan' of a team or follow a league seriously.
[19:14:59] <arti> "today on Botnet World, we're going to show you some new techniques..."
[19:15:56] -!- AshleyWaffle [AshleyWaffle!~waffle@198.206.zs.ukm] has joined #Soylent
[19:16:04] <n1> i find the anger and emotion that can come as a result of sporting events quite disturbing
[19:16:06] <arti> mmm waffles
[19:16:18] <cykros> when there's a big league dedicated to robot battles, i might start paying more attention to sports.
[19:16:27] <arti> n1, well obviously you didn't light the candles in the right order or else they would've won
[19:16:51] <arti> cykros, what about gladiators? would you watch that?
[19:17:00] <n1> people that think it would damage their masculinity should they cry at the death of a loved one.... will display all sorts of the emotion in regard to their sporting tribe
[19:17:10] <cykros> idk arti, memories of american gladiators comes to mind
[19:17:27] * arti would totally watch a fight to the death
[19:17:29] <cykros> and idk that i could bring myself to watching that without an iv drip of 190 proof ethanol.
[19:17:36] <cykros> oh, to the death
[19:17:38] <n1> not sure if it's my cynical mind
[19:17:39] <cykros> that's different
[19:17:46] <cykros> ideally, gladiators with robots.
[19:17:47] <arti> well, unless they get a thumbs up
[19:17:52] <n1> but i really dont see us being that far away from going back to 'fights to the death'
[19:18:00] <cykros> so that they're jumping around trying to take down mech systems
[19:18:02] <cykros> that would be fun
[19:18:15] <cykros> now, i'm not sure who i'd be okay with being tossed into the ring
[19:18:25] <cykros> i imagine they'd have to be politicians, or IRS agents.
[19:18:25] <arti> n1, it's totally cool when you kill for your country, but no bueno when you do it for yourself
[19:18:33] <cykros> though foreign dictators are fair game too
[19:18:39] <arti> cykros, that'd be sweeet
[19:18:50] <arti> TODAY WE HAVE BATTLE 5 OF THE DEMOCRAT HOUSE
[19:18:55] <DrMag> cykros: I can think of at least 535 people I'd toss in.
[19:19:03] <n1> thats reallt not how it would work though, if it comes to reality
[19:19:06] <n1> really*
[19:19:12] <cykros> DrMag: aww, did you get uid 536 on soylent?
[19:19:14] <arti> it would be done by drone, you're right
[19:19:16] <n1> because the death sports would be the distraction from the government.
[19:19:20] <cykros> lol, and no, i get it, the house of rep.
[19:19:27] <DrMag> =D
[19:19:28] <n1> not as a way of punishing government
[19:20:22] <cykros> yea. more likely, we'd get, idk, drug cartel members. except not so much, because they form a vital part of our clandestine budget.
[19:20:29] <cykros> terrorist suspects probably
[19:20:36] <cykros> and by suspects, i mean brown people who were convenient patsies
[19:20:40] <n1> it depends really
[19:20:45] <n1> you would have to have the 'home team'
[19:20:49] <n1> in that situation
[19:20:56] <n1> because if it's bad guy vs bad guy
[19:21:01] <cykros> hrm, that's true. doing it with robots would just be inhumane.
[19:21:01] <n1> no one feels happy when one bad guy wins
[19:21:16] <DrMag> n1: ever read the book thief?
[19:21:16] <n1> so you need 'TEAM USA' vs the terrorists
[19:21:28] <n1> DrMag, I have not
[19:21:35] <DrMag> There's an imagined scene where a jewish boxer is fighting hitler, and does well.
[19:21:52] <DrMag> Hitler uses that fact to rally the troops, because, "See? They're getting stronger. We have to do something now."
[19:21:53] <arti> n1, everyone not on the team is a terrorist, duh
[19:22:07] <DrMag> People like that can use either side winning to their advantage,
[19:22:22] <arti> we should plan this out more and start a kickstarter
[19:22:23] <n1> indeed, atri - but you need someone to represent the good guys in the death sports.
[19:22:27] <DrMag> and people who use combat to control the masses are, (thanks, Godwin) like that.
[19:22:32] <arti> heh good guys, it's all relative
[19:22:34] <n1> DrMag, very good point.
[19:22:40] <cykros> arti: i think we might need to start our own kickstarter too.
[19:22:42] <cykros> probably on i2p
[19:22:43] <n1> arti, i meant 'good guys'
[19:22:49] <cykros> with like, anoncoins.
[19:22:50] <n1> the people on the side of the organizers of the event
[19:22:59] <arti> guy guys are winners n1, why do you hate winners?!
[19:23:11] <arti> ONE OF US. ONE OF US.
[19:23:15] <cykros> something about planning deathmatches to be crowdfunded seems like it might be a breach of kickstarter's TOS
[19:23:25] <arti> well we'll change the words to 'voted off'
[19:23:40] <n1> heheh
[19:23:58] <cykros> well, all i'm saying is that crowdfunding murder isn't new, it just needs to be done on places not on kickstarter
[19:24:03] <n1> well you leave it up to the audience to decide how the 'voted off' happens
[19:24:09] <arti> so we should come up with a site then
[19:24:11] <cykros> there's that site on the .onion net that crowdfunds political assassinations
[19:24:12] <arti> deathstarter.com
[19:24:34] <DrMag> startkicking.com
[19:24:34] <cykros> ben bernanke i think has the highest price on his head, or did 6 months ago anyway
[19:24:39] <arti> start kicking lol
[19:24:39] <n1> i dont think it needs crowdfunding, it wouldnt be successful
[19:24:44] <n1> it needs Fox to run with it
[19:24:54] <cykros> or turner networks
[19:24:56] <ciri> And congrats on the lookout for new musics.
[19:24:57] <cykros> just throw it on USA
[19:25:06] <cykros> that's where american gladiators used to be, wasn't it?
[19:25:41] <cykros> if fox had it they'd have to cancel it because there are robots and robots are like sci-fi and fox cancels sci-fi.
[19:25:47] <cykros> it's just what they do.
[19:25:51] <DrMag> heh.. I read that as "just throw it on (the) USA". Made sense that way too.
[19:26:42] <cykros> i think something about the hunger games may also have people a little averse to actually having such a thing.
[19:26:59] <n1> cykros, it's the combination of the live entertainment/talent competition and endless hours of content to generate after the 'events'
[19:27:16] <n1> would mean it would win, in spite of it having robot/sci-fi elements
[19:27:34] <cykros> i suppose that's true
[19:28:11] <cykros> oh god, i forget, that's the other thing i get by reading mainstream news. i get to hear about every last mentally unstable person with a gun at a shopping center.
[19:28:28] <cykros> i probably am catching up with 3 mass shootings right now in my rss feeds
[19:28:35] <arti> i think today's school thing is happening in Oregon
[19:28:48] <arti> we're still within normal bounds
[19:28:53] <cykros> U S A U S A! heh. gotta love that they're always in gun free zones.
[19:29:07] <arti> maybe they can pass some more laws!

[19:29:38] <n1> more are less guns are not the solution
[19:29:47] <n1> a compassionate society might be a start though
[19:30:04] <cykros> or, fewer people. fewer targets means mass shootings are harder.
[19:30:05] <DrMag> True that.
[19:30:15] <DrMag> *compassionate society, that is.
[19:30:16] <cykros> so, best just let it all run its course.
[19:30:40] <AndyTheAbsurd> funding for mental health care would go a long way towards eliminating those things
[19:30:41] * arti is still amused someone purchased supremegentleman.com
[19:30:47] <n1> 'run its course' is a complicated one, as the course was decided by men already
[19:31:22] * cykros backpedals because by run his course he meant "let the humans kill each other off" and wasn't 100% serious.
[19:31:43] <n1> cykros, i get what you mean
[19:31:49] <Bender> [SoylentNews] - The Living Computer Museum Wants YOU - http://sylnt.us - not-as-an-exhibit
[19:32:16] <AndyTheAbsurd> yeah, I'm not convinced that humans killing each other off won't happen...not convince that it *will* happen, either, though.
[19:32:29] <AndyTheAbsurd> hopefully we're smart enough not to be that self-destructive.
[19:32:36] <arti> people excel at cooperation
[19:33:07] * arti waits
[19:33:08] <cykros> arti: people excel at cooperation. what they're not always so good at is making choices that improve health and vitality vs. self destruction.
[19:33:09] <n1> i question now that we're educated to not cooperate
[19:33:22] <cykros> combine cooperation with self destruction and we might have an issue.
[19:33:23] <n1> because if you're expected to cooperate with others, they're entitled.
[19:33:37] <NCommander> paulej72, any luck with nexuses?
[19:33:57] <n1> how dare someone assume i have to cooperate with them, they should take personal responsibility to make the community better, if they see a way it can be done
[19:36:53] <n1> and someone has to make profit off it too, so unless we're cooperating against a common enemy, it doesn't happen.
[19:38:21] <cykros> oh, cooperation happens plenty. the powers that be get everyone cooperating to fight off the criminals, terrorists, and upstarts of the world. they just neglect to point out that the people they're enlisting happen to also be the ones they're fighting.
[19:38:37] <cykros> it makes everything nice and neat in the end.
[19:38:53] <n1> 'common enemy'
[19:38:54] <cykros> a war where all of the casualties are enemies.
[19:38:55] <n1> real or imagined
[19:39:25] <n1> but outside of fighting that common enemy, we seem all to keen to fight amongst ourselves to elevate our personal position

[20:07:28] <LaminatorX|so-not-a-chat-bot> Yes.
[20:08:58] <TheMightyBuzzard> tis a sad. pretty sure i have unicode->html entity conversion working solid, understand why it does, and know why we can't do proper unicode to and from the db
[20:09:03] <TheMightyBuzzard> but github is hating on me
[20:11:33] <TheMightyBuzzard> there we go, finally
[20:20:09] <Woods> I just installed Google Chrome for half my user base... They are all confused because they do not know what their user/pass are to sign in to Chrome.
[20:20:41] <LaminatorX|so-not-a-chat-bot> Tell them it's "Google"
[20:21:22] <Woods> I am trying to go for a more generic "This is an internet browser, like IE, or Firefox"
[20:22:05] <Woods> I wonder how many people created accounts after downloading Chrome... Hm
[20:22:23] <TheMightyBuzzard> NCommander, pull request in that should fix unicode for dev. Much smaller commit this time.
[20:23:14] <LaminatorX|so-not-a-chat-bot> I meant to tell them that their ID was "Google," and that they should type it in at the top and hit enter.
[20:23:48] <LaminatorX|so-not-a-chat-bot> Yu may have caused a noticable bump in G+ registrations, Woods.
[20:24:12] <Woods> Another surge in the service! G+ is coming back, baby!

[20:26:40] <Woods> Sigh... Brb... A user is not understanding the "You do not have to sign in" bit.

[21:56:13] <paulej72> NCommander: I have a few issues with the index template that will need to be fixed as well.
[21:57:22] <NCommander> paulej72, that didn't work
[21:57:24] <TheMightyBuzzard> me, i'm claiming my minor victory and monkeying with something entirely else.
[21:57:40] <NCommander> When I linked in the necessary slash files to /meta, it got in a redirect loop (I went to dev.soylentnews.org/meta/meta)
[21:59:00] <NCommander> paulej72, I *think* the way its supposed to work is you have a separate "site" directory (under sites) for each vhost
[22:00:12] <NCommander> Or not
[22:00:19] <NCommander> That looks like thats for completely seperate slash installs
[22:00:21] <NCommander> Side by side
[22:16:38] <NCommander> paulej72, I'm mulling on how we could reasonably handle the subdomain issue
[22:17:28] <arti> how many subdmains are you considering?
[22:17:33] <arti> dozens?
[22:17:37] <arti> hundreds?
[22:18:10] <NCommander> arti, well, I'd like nexuses to become our version of subreddits
[22:18:12] <paulej72> NCommander: what did you change on dev since changing the meta skin?
[22:18:25] <arti> aaah very cool
[22:19:03] <NCommander> arti, I mean, strictly speaking, we could even let someone attach a custom domain, and have them point it at the site at a nexus ...
[22:19:17] <NCommander> paulej72, haven't changed anything
[22:19:29] <NCommander> paulej72, er, I made a symlink of the files in / to /meta
[22:19:40] <NCommander> Then I moved those out of the way when I found all it did was cause a redirect loop
[22:23:32] <NCommander> paulej72, I think the sane thing to do is simply set the skin/URL to soylentnews.org, so they all point to the same place even though they are different nexuses
[22:24:18] <NCommander> I'm going to get some food, I shall return

[23:11:19] <mrcoolbp> mrcoolbp's brother ^^
[23:11:29] <weirdpercent> hello all
[23:11:40] <bryan> NCommander: i have 2 wildcard domains for pipedot
[23:11:45] <NCommander> Ugh
[23:11:49] * NCommander just got drenched coming back from dinner
[23:11:57] <NCommander> bryan, how'd you handle verification and who'd you use?
[23:12:26] <bryan> *.pipedot.org is from startcom for $59.90, and *.pipecode.org is from globalsign for free
[23:13:10] <bryan> startcom is an israel based CA that has really cheap prices for certs
[23:13:49] <bryan> in fact, it's free for single domain, and just that $60 for wildcard (because of the extra validation)
[23:14:49] <bryan> globalsign will give you a free wildcard cert for your webpage if you prove that your webpage is hosting an open source project
[23:15:17] <NCommander> Don't think we qualify on the later (the code is on github)
[23:15:35] <bryan> then startcom is your best bet for sure
[23:15:48] <bryan> all the other places charge *way* too much for wildcard certs
[23:16:00] <bryan> https://www.startssl.com
[23:16:03] <monopoly> Title: StartSSL™ Certificates & Public Key Infrastructure
[23:19:44] <NCommander> bryan, yeah thats probably fine
[23:21:24] <NCommander> bryan, what's necessary for validation?
[23:22:04] <bryan> i had to send in photocopies of a couple of different ids (drivers license and passport, if i remember correctly)
[23:22:42] <NCommander> bryan, I've got those
[23:22:44] <NCommander> Not a problem
[23:23:02] <NCommander> bryan, I guess I just don't want it issued in my name per-say, but we can probably re-issue after we incorporate
[23:23:15] <bryan> oh and a phone bill, but the family plan i was on screwed that up, so they had to send a snail mail letter to me with a one-time password key that i had to verify
[23:24:03] <NCommander> bryan, that one is tricky, unless they'll accept a forwarded one from T-Mobile
[23:24:07] * NCommander hasn't gotten a paper bill in years
[23:24:13] <bryan> unless you get the "extended validation" (that stupid green bar crap) the cert doesnt have your name anywhere in it, just the domain name
[23:25:43] <NCommander> bryan, oh :-)
[23:25:50] <NCommander> bryan, I've never actually bought a real SSL cert before
[23:25:52] <NCommander> */new at this*
[23:26:23] * NCommander has his passport though its admitly not in great shape
[23:26:35] <bryan> the whole CA industry is corrupt and overpriced; note that's how ubuntu's mark s. made his millions :P
[23:27:16] <bryan> 1) make a CA in your garage 2) get CA included in early web browsers 3) sell CA to network solutions for millions!
[23:27:57] <paulej72> bryan: can I go back in time and do that :)
[23:30:45] -!- LaminatorX|so-not-a-chat-bot has quit [Quit: Web client closed]
[23:30:59] <NCommander> Meh, if I could go back in time, I could corner the market
[23:31:01] <bryan> paulej72: may as well buy a few shares of facebook, apple, and google while you are at it :P
[23:32:44] * NCommander SCPs the file from my phone
[23:32:57] <NCommander> paulej72, I'm just going to get the wildcard cert, path of least resistence
[23:33:11] <paulej72> sounds good to me
[23:33:44] <NCommander> Ugh, they want the files less than 1 MiB
[23:33:54] * NCommander is going to have to do some cropping
[23:35:07] <mrcoolbp> just a resize should do it
[23:38:32] <DrMag> NCommander: Maybe just resize image? Different image type?
[23:39:46] <NCommander> mrcoolbp, I retook them at a lower resolution (plus the first set had shadows on them)

[23:41:44] <NCommander> Ugh
[23:41:51] <NCommander> I hate uploading personal information anywhere
[23:41:55] <NCommander> I *get* why they need it but still
[23:44:36] <NCommander> mrcoolbp, paulej72 validation request is in
[23:44:38] <NCommander> Now we wait
[23:44:55] <crutchy> anyone know how xlefay's doing?
[23:45:06] <NCommander> crutchy, we heard that he's ok, and hopes to return to us soon
[23:45:07] <mrcoolbp> NCommander: neato, is all the code working then?
[23:45:23] <NCommander> mrcoolbp, for the most part, paulej72 needs to massage the CSS into less ugly
[23:45:24] <mrcoolbp> crutchy: we're not sure when he'll resurface
[23:45:45] <crutchy> hope it wasn't the dreaded 'a' word
[23:46:21] <NCommander> Play DF, watch a movie, or put extra hours in at work
[23:46:22] <NCommander> Ugh
[23:46:43] <crutchy> option4: code some junk
[23:47:38] <crutchy> just make sure its not overly useful else won't be as fun :-P
[23:50:11] <crutchy> maybe a new apt-get moo is in order
[23:50:37] <crutchy> the current one looks more like a creepy goat
[23:51:11] <NCommander> Well, that was quick
[23:51:20] <NCommander> They're already complaing that my documentation is skewed across several states :-)
[23:52:10] <mrcoolbp> that sounds about right
[23:52:47] <NCommander> mrcoolbp, if I can't validate my identity, would you be willing to do it? I'll paypal you the money
[23:52:47] <ciri> Like the character, it's pretty complex but i am willing to engange them, i use bookmarks anyway.

[23:53:59] <mrcoolbp> NCommander: what do you need me to do?
[23:54:17] <NCommander> mrcoolbp, to help with my efforts to *TAKE OVER THE WORLD*
[23:54:30] <NCommander> mrcoolbp, nothing as of yet. If need be though, you might have to deal with getting the wildcard cert
[23:54:34] <mrcoolbp> the same thing we do every night?
[23:54:44] <mrcoolbp> NCommander: no problem
[23:54:50] <crutchy> ciri is like the dumbest human in the history of dumbness, but that's still pretty good for ai :-P

[23:56:11] <mrcoolbp> NCommander: let me introduce my brother
[23:56:20] <mrcoolbp> "weirdpercent"
[23:56:46] <mrcoolbp> he said he can help find a wildcard cert
[23:57:12] <NCommander> weirdpercent, ?
[23:57:13] <weirdpercent> salutations.
[23:57:24] -!- mechanicjay has quit [Quit: Leaving.]
[23:57:33] <NCommander> weirdpercent, ... I have to ask, what percentage of your family is weird?
[23:57:54] <weirdpercent> it varies, but mostly, a shitton.
[23:58:03] * mrcoolbp notes that he isn't that weird in his own minde
[23:58:05] <NCommander> mrcoolbp, right now, I just asked them if an electronic copy of the phone bill will be acceptable
[23:58:17] <NCommander> so, it hasn't been a *kill* just yet
[23:58:24] * mrcoolbp doesn't have paper copies of a phone bill
[23:58:39] * mrcoolbp does have paper copies of an electric bill though
[23:58:46] <weirdpercent> that's the other thing to take into account when looking for a cert provider is not just how much it costs but what hoops do they make you jump through
[23:58:57] * NCommander is lucky he has a phone bill
[23:59:03] <NCommander> weirdpercent, bryan recommended the SSL provider I was already looking at
