[00:57:23] <SirFinkus> https://www.youtube.com shit, I need one of these
[00:57:26] <exec> └─ 13How to velomobile - YouTube
[00:58:18] <SirFinkus> those bike lanes are sexy too
[00:58:25] <SirFinkus> I'll take those as well
[01:03:09] <SirFinkus> I wish they looked less like marital aids though
[01:10:06] <Bender> [SoylentNews] - Hillary Clinton Takes Aim at Uber - http://sylnt.us - sharing-criticism
[01:11:05] <cmn32480> Sirfinkus... it DOES look like a giant penis
[01:11:13] <cmn32480> no grab
[01:11:47] <SirFinkus> faster than traditional bicycles, and the drivetrain is isolated from the road
[01:11:53] <SirFinkus> so less wear and tear on the components
[01:12:06] <SirFinkus> you also stay dry, which is even better
[01:12:16] <SirFinkus> but holy shit it's like 6k
[01:12:31] <cmn32480> my commute is abotu 25 miles... on the interstate....
[01:12:35] <cmn32480> I don't think so
[01:12:43] <cmn32480> it is very cool
[01:12:52] <SirFinkus> that's doable, it'd just take an hour and change
[01:13:05] <cmn32480> not on the interstate
[01:13:12] <cmn32480> I'd get ticketed and probably killed
[01:13:24] <SirFinkus> depends on the interstate
[01:13:27] <cmn32480> nope
[01:13:40] <cmn32480> interstate highways in the US are for motorvehicles only
[01:14:10] <SirFinkus> false, there are several areas where bicycles can ride on the shoulder
[01:14:15] <SirFinkus> not a great idea
[01:14:19] <SirFinkus> but it's legal and possible
[01:15:12] <cmn32480> holy shit.
[01:15:15] * SirFinkus wouldn't risk it, but he has paths that run adjacent to the interstate
[01:15:16] <cmn32480> you are correct
[01:15:24] <SirFinkus> err
[01:15:29] <cmn32480> I googled... and I sit corrected
[01:15:29] <SirFinkus> I use the paths
[01:15:36] <SirFinkus> I wouldn't ride on the shoulder
[01:15:45] <cmn32480> on the intersate? hell no!
[01:15:58] <SirFinkus> I've seen cyclists on i5, somewhat common between like Olympia and Tacoma
[01:16:16] <SirFinkus> as in I'll see a one or two a month
[01:16:35] <cmn32480> I woudln't ride on the intersate
[01:16:42] <cmn32480> my commute is on I-95
[01:16:59] <cmn32480> I think it would be instant death
[01:17:06] <SirFinkus> there could be side streets or trails you could ride on as well
[01:17:07] <cmn32480> or instant mangling... and then a painful death
[01:17:13] <cmn32480> that is more likely
[01:17:14] <SirFinkus> haha
[01:17:30] <SirFinkus> no, you'll see them coming, and there will be nothing you can do about it
[01:18:07] <cmn32480> nearly instant mangling....
[01:18:19] <cmn32480> whatever... it all ends up w/ me dead
[01:19:14] <SirFinkus> watch out for women driving big SUVs drinking starbucks, it may sound sexist, but 100% of the time I've been nearly killed by a motorist it has been a woman driving an SUV drinking starbucks or some other type of overpriced coffee/milkshake thing
[01:19:29] -!- BadCoderFinger [BadCoderFinger!~BadCoderF@216.160.gyz.km] has joined #Soylent
[01:19:30] <SirFinkus> I suspect it has more to do with the starbucks part than the woman part
[01:19:32] <cmn32480> were they texting too?
[01:19:41] <cmn32480> and were they asian?
[01:19:46] <cmn32480> heya BadCoderFinger
[01:19:53] <SirFinkus> no, usually "mom" looking women
[01:19:55] <BadCoderFinger> Hey guys
[01:20:18] <SirFinkus> it's happened probably a dozen times to me, so I noticed the trend and avoid coffee places now
[01:20:40] <takyon> once that other hand comes off the wheel, someone is 50% more likely to die
[01:21:30] <SirFinkus> it's usually when they leave a parking lot, people don't look for people in the bike lane or sidewalk when trying to enter traffic
[01:21:31] <cmn32480> once that woman gets behind the wheel all hopped up on caffine...
[01:21:59] <SirFinkus> especially while trying to drink some chocolate milk with some coffee in it
[01:23:17] <BadCoderFinger> Somebody told me that Starbucks is just a hot milkshake.
[01:23:25] <SirFinkus> basically it is
[01:23:36] <SirFinkus> but people think it isn't as unhealthy
[01:24:13] <cmn32480> blech
[01:24:19] <cmn32480> their coffee sucks
[01:24:21] <takyon> crushed caffeine pills, now that's healthy
[01:24:26] <SirFinkus> people would probably think drinking a shake everyday would be bad for you, but will drink their salted caramel mocha or whatever the fuck every day
[01:24:41] <SirFinkus> it's pretty much the same thing, shittons of sugar
[01:25:21] <BadCoderFinger> Wait, they have coffee too?
[01:25:41] <cmn32480> generally burnt... shitty... exceptionally acidic
[01:25:45] <BadCoderFinger> starbucks--
[01:25:45] <Bender> karma - starbucks: -2
[01:25:49] <cmn32480> amen to that
[01:25:51] <takyon> time to check nasa TV
[01:25:53] <cmn32480> sttarbucks--
[01:25:53] <Bender> karma - sttarbucks: -1
[01:25:57] <SirFinkus> it has to be to overpower the sugar flavor

[01:26:00] <takyon> New Horizons checkin should have been 30 minutes ago
[01:26:11] <SirFinkus> spoiler: everything went well
[01:26:36] <SirFinkus> Jonathan McDowell @planet4589
[01:26:36] <SirFinkus> Mission Ops Manager Alice Bowman reports to Principal Investigator Alan Stern that the flyby has been a success.
[01:26:51] <takyon> briefing in 4 minutes
[01:26:57] <takyon> turn on your NASA TV
[01:27:00] <BadCoderFinger> Nice!

[01:27:03] <exec> └─ 13NASA Television | NASA
[01:27:27] <cmn32480> hotel internet... not gonna happen
[01:27:34] <cmn32480> let me know if there is anythign cool
[01:27:53] <SirFinkus> did we ever decide whether voyager has actually left the solar system yet?
[01:28:24] <SirFinkus> seems like there was a story fairly regularly about that happening, only for it be retracted or some shit
[01:28:25] <cmn32480> yes. it did. but it came back in Star Trek TMP
[01:28:38] <SirFinkus> it was almost like the graphene stories
[01:28:46] <takyon> yeah it was terrible
[01:29:00] <takyon> in fact they will probably do it for another 2-10 years
[01:29:07] <takyon> "heliosphere"
[01:29:37] <takyon> I'll give you the blow by blow cmn32480
[01:29:40] <takyon> unless it's boring
[01:29:40] <cmn32480> Graphene: Insta-Cancer if inhaled.... AWESOME for everythgin else!
[01:29:48] <cmn32480> just the highlights
[01:29:50] <cmn32480> please
[01:29:54] <takyon> a lot of stuff in your laptop would kill you if you inhale it
[01:29:59] <takyon> so bring on the graphene
[01:30:06] <cmn32480> true
[01:30:49] <takyon> god damn it
[01:31:16] <cmn32480> he already damned pluto... they demoted it
[01:31:16] <SirFinkus> I think it's particularly problematic because it sticks in the air and is easy to damage so it disperses
[01:31:21] <takyon> ok we got a man talking
[01:31:23] <SirFinkus> like asbestos
[01:31:30] <takyon> Charles Bolden is about to roll in
[01:31:35] <cmn32480> I dind't know aesbestos could talk
[01:31:40] <takyon> more applause as if we needed that
[01:32:06] <takyon> camera guy shows up on screen
[01:32:10] <SirFinkus> imagine if the space race had kept going since we landed on the moon
[01:32:13] <SirFinkus> we'd be on mars now
[01:32:20] <takyon> people walking down from the audience
[01:32:31] <takyon> we got musk
[01:32:36] <cmn32480> To Infinity and Beyond!
[01:32:42] <takyon> musk will mars
[01:32:50] <SirFinkus> does elon musk have a perfume?
[01:32:55] <SirFinkus> he could call it "elon musk"
[01:32:56] <cmn32480> probably
[01:33:03] <cmn32480> or elon's musk
[01:33:08] <SirFinkus> lol
[01:33:10] <takyon> elon's scent
[01:33:21] <takyon> eau d'elon
[01:33:26] <SirFinkus> where does he get off having a name like "elon"
[01:33:35] <cmn32480> cool parents?
[01:33:37] <takyon> where do you get off? public restrooms?
[01:33:38] <SirFinkus> what an asshole
[01:33:39] <takyon> elon is god
[01:33:43] <takyon> U S A
[01:33:45] <takyon> THEY SAID IT
[01:33:47] <takyon> U S
[01:33:49] <takyon> ...A
[01:34:00] <SirFinkus> no, bathhouses
[01:34:12] <takyon> metric fuckton of New Horizons team members walking onto the stage
[01:34:13] <SirFinkus> I'm slightly better off
[01:35:13] <takyon> one of them has a "pluto" stuffed doll
[01:35:17] <takyon> 2/10 originality
[01:35:33] * cmn32480 wonders if they will find fleas living on pluto
[01:35:33] <SirFinkus> have they made the "not a planet" joke yet?
[01:35:43] <takyon> not yet
[01:35:49] <takyon> opening remarks now
[01:35:54] <SirFinkus> let me know when it happens
[01:35:55] <takyon> and my stream decides to cut out
[01:36:05] <SirFinkus> I'd watch the stream, but fuck that
[01:36:22] <takyon> some man is talking. he's probably important
[01:36:42] <takyon> mentioned watching the team recover from the anomaly a week ago
[01:37:08] <takyon> I switched to the media stream, hope it's better
[01:37:18] <takyon> *claps*
[01:37:41] <takyon> "point of pride for the nation... point of pride in the world"
[01:37:56] <takyon> Pluto, what has it given us? Whales, donuts, and a heart
[01:38:03] <SirFinkus> no, donald trump's latest statement is much more important
[01:38:05] <takyon> but we discovered it's a two-toned heart
[01:38:12] <SirFinkus> and the all star game is on
[01:38:14] <SirFinkus> fuck space
[01:38:21] <takyon> space jam
[01:39:22] <takyon> ADMINISTRATOR BOLDEN
[01:39:41] <cmn32480> the muslim apology guy?
[01:39:42] <SirFinkus> sounds orwellian
[01:39:55] <takyon> he's saying that the team don't understand how important this is
[01:40:01] <takyon> as if they couldn't check google news
[01:40:04] <takyon> "we walk and chew gum"
[01:40:15] <cmn32480> the TEAM doesn't understand it?
[01:40:16] <SirFinkus> it's not important at all
[01:40:17] <takyon> I actually made this point in a New Horizons related flamewar
[01:40:20] <cmn32480> is he fucking kidding?
[01:40:22] <SirFinkus> we already passed the last planet
[01:40:28] <takyon> yeah he's making some jokes
[01:40:31] <takyon> that's his job
[01:40:35] <SirFinkus> pluto joke?
[01:40:43] <takyon> he says he had surgery a week ago
[01:40:43] <cmn32480> oh right... useless management
[01:40:50] <SirFinkus> I just need to determine when that will get old
[01:40:53] <cmn32480> to implat his humor chip?
[01:41:01] <takyon> now he just said he didn't know army surgeons could spell "horizon"
[01:41:10] <SirFinkus> I think bad astronomer made a joke earlier
[01:41:11] <takyon> got some small boos
[01:41:35] <takyon> THE UNITED STATES IS THE FIRST NATION TO VISIT PLUTO
[01:41:39] <takyon> biatch
[01:41:57] <takyon> "you really need to stop and think about that"
[01:42:22] <SirFinkus> https://www.facebook.com oh, outsourced the joke
[01:42:26] <exec> └─ 13Rob DenBleyker - Timeline Photos | Facebook
[01:42:28] <BadCoderFinger> Isn't it more correct to say we're the first ones to have done a Pluto drive-by?
[01:42:40] <cmn32480> did they shoot at it?
[01:42:41] <SirFinkus> to cyanide and happiness aka xkcd lite
[01:42:47] <takyon> just noticed his arm is in a sling, I guess he broke his arm and had surgery last week
[01:42:59] <cmn32480> and woudln't it be a flyboy?
[01:43:03] <cmn32480> *flyby?
[01:43:11] <takyon> he's mentioning Mars now
[01:43:28] <cmn32480> that was a billion miles ago
[01:43:30] <cmn32480> sheesh
[01:43:35] <takyon> this mission is one step to getting us to Mars
[01:43:52] <SirFinkus> has he made an analogy yet?
[01:43:52] <cmn32480> Newsflash: THEY MISSED MARS
[01:43:53] <takyon> I think he's going to plug the Mars 2030s mission every speech from now
[01:44:22] <SirFinkus> like "if the sun was the size of a basket ball, we'd be x yards away now" or something
[01:44:30] <takyon> fuck the stream is jumping around its terrible
[01:44:34] <takyon> gonna refresh
[01:44:45] <takyon> "the pluto kids, is that right"
[01:45:08] <SirFinkus> my very eager mother just served us nine...
[01:45:14] <SirFinkus> WHAT DID SHE SERVE US
[01:45:18] <SirFinkus> I GOTTA KNOW
[01:45:30] <takyon> he pointed at a bunch of kids in the audience and is talking about inspiring the next generation
[01:45:35] <takyon> but my stream is fucked
[01:45:45] <SirFinkus> gross
[01:46:05] <cmn32480> soudns like he is looking at the wrong stream....
[01:46:16] -!- marco_trunks has quit [Ping timeout: 264 seconds]
[01:46:19] <takyon> ok well he's done talking
[01:46:45] <takyon> they are at the Johns Hopkins lab in Maryland
[01:46:54] <takyon> about to have a panel discuss the findings I suppose
[01:46:55] <cmn32480> JPL?
[01:46:55] <SirFinkus> is voyager 2 the furthest thing we have out there?
[01:47:00] <takyon> uh know
[01:47:07] <takyon> go to the soylent story if you want a link to them
[01:47:10] <takyon> *no
[01:47:27] <BadCoderFinger> I wonder if there should have been a dress rehearsal for the engineers.
[01:47:28] <takyon> 50 of the team walking off stage
[01:47:32] <cmn32480> Applied Physics Lab is the Hopkins site
[01:47:35] <takyon> are you watching
[01:47:43] <BadCoderFinger> I am, yeah.
[01:47:45] <takyon> heh
[01:47:55] <takyon> hurry up you lil shits
[01:48:08] <takyon> "grats again team"

[01:48:45] <takyon> media briefing time
[01:48:52] <cmn32480> stupid hotel internet
[01:48:58] <takyon> another briefing at 3pm tomorrow
[01:49:18] <takyon> the dude implied we wouldn't see the best images until 3pm tomorrow. not sure
[01:50:03] <takyon> we got some guy from Colorado, we got the project manager Glenn Fountain, Alice Bowman, mission operations manager
[01:50:26] <takyon> John somebody is starting
[01:50:48] <takyon> "we haven't seen anything yet"
[01:50:52] <takyon> big theme here
[01:50:56] <BadCoderFinger> DC guy, probably running for office next year.
[01:51:12] <takyon> slight feedback
[01:51:28] <takyon> THIS IS IN THE HISTORY BOOKS
[01:51:42] <takyon> WE'VE OPENED UP A NEW REALM OF HUMAN DISCOVERY
[01:51:49] <takyon> THE SPACECRAFT JUST DID WHAT YOU TOLD IT TO
[01:52:01] <takyon> safe mode event joke
[01:52:16] <BadCoderFinger> "This can never be repeated(1)." (1) Because we'll never get enough funding.
[01:52:36] <takyon> the 2nd trip to Pluto is also a record
[01:52:40] <takyon> not to mention the first orbit
[01:52:40] <Landon> because rama will leave the solar system shortly
[01:53:06] <takyon> my stream likes to jump several seconds into the past
[01:53:11] <takyon> i don't like it
[01:53:17] <BadCoderFinger> We should start a kickstarter to go fetch Rama.
[01:53:53] <takyon> principal investigator Alan Stern
[01:54:19] <takyon> telling the team to stand up
[01:54:31] <takyon> WE DID IT
[01:55:21] <takyon> one small step for new horizons, one giant leap for mankind
[01:55:29] <takyon> (really)
[01:56:14] <takyon> Glenn Fountain
[01:56:43] <takyon> streaming sucks
[01:56:48] <takyon> i need that google fiber
[01:56:52] <BadCoderFinger> Heh!
[01:57:00] <BadCoderFinger> Works ok on roku
[01:57:29] <takyon> Alice
[01:57:36] <takyon> people chanting Alice
[01:57:55] <BadCoderFinger> Not a lot of stage presence, heh.
[01:58:42] <takyon> these are the worst jumps in stream timing
[01:58:51] <takyon> basically made what she said even worse than whatever you heard
[01:59:28] <BadCoderFinger> Heh, Q&A without data. Yay.
[01:59:37] <takyon> great
[01:59:58] <takyon> "What kind of data?" "ENTIRELY ENGINEERING"
[02:00:20] <BadCoderFinger> That's to be expected, really.
[02:00:24] <takyon> I might close the stream because of that
[02:00:52] <BadCoderFinger> The science data is stored to be transmitted back later, probably more than once.
[02:01:06] <takyon> it takes months to send it all
[02:01:42] <takyon> i'm done watching, screw softballs
[02:02:04] <takyon> I would have continued if stream performance didn't hit the gutter
[02:08:45] <BadCoderFinger> "Tell us about the weapons systems on board the spacecraft."
[02:10:47] <takyon> are you serious
[02:19:42] <BadCoderFinger> Heh, of course not.
[02:19:57] <BadCoderFinger> but it's almost as good as the questions they did ask.

[15:20:30] <AndyTheAbsurd> (It wasn't a hybrid though.)

[15:28:56] <Gravis> AndyTheAbsurd: yes, i presume your guilt. ;)
[15:29:03] <AndyTheAbsurd> Gravis: Nope, I wasn't involved - my wife was driving it, and she got hit by a guy driving a Pontiac Aztek that decided he was going to floor it through a yellow light as she was trying to take a left turn.
[15:30:46] <Gravis> AndyTheAbsurd: so basically, she wanted to beat the light and so did he.
[15:31:49] <Gravis> i am just absolutely done with the Azteks. first they use their calendar to try to end the world and now they are using cars to ruin our cars? when will the madness end?!
[15:33:02] <AndyTheAbsurd> yeah. Only he moved from the left lane to the middle lane in order to do it - so he didn't visibility of her and she didn't have visibility of him and his car ended up knocking out the box that controls the traffic light for that intersection.

[23:47:25] <AndyTheAbsurd> with windows it's copy from charmap or remember that it's "hold down Alt and type in the decimal-numeric version of the Unicode code point"
[23:47:41] <cmn32480> copy it is
