[00:01:05] <TheMightyBuzzard> jeez, takyon, you go out of your way to find the two most sjw-biased sources you possibly could to explain the hugos?
[00:06:15] <TheMightyBuzzard> I mean fuck's sake "GamerGate makes a political movement out of threatening with rape any woman who has the temerity to offer an opinion about a videogame." from the wired article.

[00:42:26] <swiss> not much
[00:42:53] <Ethanol-fueled> pretty dead in here.
[00:43:05] <swiss> yep

[00:44:10] <Ethanol-fueled> Was thinking of actually going this year. Damn shame.

[01:53:22] * SpallsHurgenson clicks the "begin interesting conversation" button and waits patiently
[01:55:18] <Subsentient> SpallsHurgenson: So I just made my portable keychain-thumbdrive-linux system bootable on EFI.
[01:55:34] <Subsentient> Boots on BIOS and UEFI, but requires disabling secure boot.
[01:55:51] <SpallsHurgenson> cool.
[01:56:05] <SpallsHurgenson> I still say opticals are better :)
[01:56:24] <Subsentient> SpallsHurgenson: My thumbdrive system is a full installation. Changes persist.
[01:56:42] <Subsentient> It has a btrfs with heavy compression for the root fs, an ext4 for the BIOS mode, and a fat32 for UEFI
[01:58:10] <SpallsHurgenson> well, so long as you only jam your dongle into ports you trust
[01:58:16] <Subsentient> lol
[01:58:17] <ciri> HEHEHEHE
[01:58:27] <Subsentient> I boot that shit on library computers.
[01:58:54] <SpallsHurgenson> well, so long as you don't ever plug it back into machines you would like to keep trusting :)
[01:59:39] <Subsentient> SpallsHurgenson: Welp, everything I have runs an obscure build of Linux that nobody has outside of me and close friends, so, I'm not worried.
[02:00:47] <SpallsHurgenson> BadUSB is OS-agnostic :)
[02:01:15] <Subsentient> SpallsHurgenson: that I recall, but I trust my own thumbdrive not to be physically modified.
[02:02:24] <SpallsHurgenson> no, but it is potentially possible that - if you plug your usb device into a compromised device - the device will infect the firmware of your thumbdrive
[02:03:06] <Subsentient> SpallsHurgenson: I suppose, but I don't intend to worry about such things until I see some in the wild.
[02:04:30] <Subsentient> Hell, SubLinux has no firewall because it irritates me, and the kernel gives access to /dev/kmem :^D
[02:06:49] <chromas> How's SubLinux2 coming along?
[02:07:52] -!- marco_trunks has quit [Ping timeout: 264 seconds]
[02:11:27] <SpallsHurgenson> if its not being tested on a real sub, I'm gonna be real disappointed
[02:16:58] <Subsentient> chromas: SubLinux2 is the current release. SubLinux 1 was in 2012 and was quite buggy. If you mean, my upcoming distro, I'm working on Packrat, the package manager.
[02:17:20] <Subsentient> SubLinux 2 on the other hand has proven to be quite delightful to use. :^)
[02:19:51] <SpallsHurgenson> first OS ever to give handjobs
[02:20:00] <Subsentient> lollll
[02:20:04] <Subsentient> that's aqu4's job
[02:20:19] * aqu4 chucks a nasty, rotten burrito at Subsentient
[02:20:31] <SpallsHurgenson> not sure I want to know
[02:20:33] * chromas approves
[02:20:42] <SpallsHurgenson> no wait, I totally want to know; got any pix?
[02:21:24] <Subsentient> SpallsHurgenson: http://i.imgur.com
[02:22:22] <SpallsHurgenson> somehow I feel it may be unwise to click on that link :)
[02:22:40] <Subsentient> chromas: tell him it's safe
[02:23:22] <chromas> well, there aren't any pants involved
[02:23:22] -!- SirFinkus [SirFinkus!~SirFinkus@q-37-359-375-883.hsd6.wa.comcast.net] has joined #Soylent
[02:23:36] <Subsentient> SpallsHurgenson: See? Perfectly safe.
[02:23:50] <SpallsHurgenson> hmmmm.... nope, still not convinced
[02:24:50] <Subsentient> SpallsHurgenson: Aren't you curious?
[02:25:21] <SpallsHurgenson> becoming less so with every passing moment :)
[02:25:33] <Subsentient> SpallsHurgenson: Click it. I dare you.
[02:26:42] <SpallsHurgenson> as I am no longer seven years old, dares no longer tempt me the way they used to :)
[02:28:48] <Subsentient> SpallsHurgenson: Does the word tubgirl.ca mean anything to you?
[02:29:35] <SpallsHurgenson> no, but I can't imagine it would lead to anything good
[02:29:48] <Subsentient> SpallsHurgenson: that's where you are mistaken
[02:29:55] <Subsentient> SpallsHurgenson: you should have clicked the link
[02:30:01] <SpallsHurgenson> such a shame that I'm missing out then
[02:30:11] <Subsentient> SpallsHurgenson: :^P
[02:30:37] <Subsentient> SpallsHurgenson: It's a picture of an asian woman in a kabookie mask squirting orange diarrhea like a whale's blow hole, landing on her face, in a bathtub.
[02:31:00] <SpallsHurgenson> ah.... and this is something you feel people need to see, is it?
[02:31:16] <Subsentient> SpallsHurgenson: When they ask for porno of my IRC bot, yes.
[02:31:46] <Subsentient> SpallsHurgenson: But in all honesty, I just love the "eww"
[02:32:12] <Subsentient> Like yesterday I made my friend Mike smoke a cigarette made from the air-exposed refuse pile. He said it tasted like cat hair, and was the worst thing he ever smoked.
[02:32:24] <Subsentient> I laughed so hard the windows echoed.
[02:32:53] <SpallsHurgenson> yeah, you're not making me want to trust any of your links
[02:32:56] <Subsentient> He smoked it halfway down and when asked why, replied "I was hoping it got better, but nope, cat hair all the way down"
[02:35:51] <Subsentient> SpallsHurgenson: I'm a weird looney toon of a guy. I maintain a clan for Warzone 2100 called "Manufactured on equipment which processes peanuts". http://moepp.universe2.us (I promise, not another gross link)

[02:52:11] <SirFinkus> how have you been on the internet and not seen tubgirl?
[02:52:15] <SirFinkus> it's like goatse
[02:52:43] <SirFinkus> or lemon party
[02:52:45] <SirFinkus> or last measure
[03:05:24] <SpallsHurgenson> hmmm.... that last episode of "The Brink" didn't really measure up to the rest of the series
[03:07:39] <chromas> it's all downhill from there
[03:11:48] <SpallsHurgenson> well, they are intending to make a second season... and its really a show that doesn't need a second season... so you may be right
[03:11:54] <SpallsHurgenson> (don't let it go to your head)
[03:13:06] <SirFinkus> I prefer the way the british do their tv
[03:13:18] <SirFinkus> well, the higher quality shows
[03:13:38] <SirFinkus> give them 2 seasons and a christmas special
[03:14:03] <SpallsHurgenson> said someone who never saw Eastenders...
[03:18:00] <Bender> [SoylentNews] - Hugo Awards Drama - http://sylnt.us - white-males-have-enough-awards
[03:18:51] <SirFinkus> oh boy, more internet drama
[03:19:03] <SirFinkus> I knew eastenders was shit, so I never watched it
[03:19:40] <SirFinkus> point is that "make episodes until it's shitty enough to get cancelled" doesn't seem to be SOP
[03:19:46] <SirFinkus> exception, not the rule
[03:23:44] <SpallsHurgenson> only seems that way 'cause we only see the good stuff :)
[03:56:34] * SpallsHurgenson drains his computer battery 'cause he's too lazy to lean over and grab the power cord
[04:05:00] <SirFinkus> hah, I just did that
[04:08:05] <SpallsHurgenson> it's all a trick by the power-cord hegemony to take over the world... somehow
[04:10:20] <SirFinkus> I did plug in at 50%
[04:13:36] <SpallsHurgenson> that's just what they want you to do!
[04:14:57] <SirFinkus> well, I'm fucked
[04:16:07] <SpallsHurgenson> well, that doesn't seem fair
[04:16:50] * SirFinkus speculates about how much of the nice dark color of potting soil is due to actual nutrients vs some bullshit dye
[04:26:29] <SpallsHurgenson> well, if they make the dye from bullshit wouldn't it count as nutrients?
[04:26:46] <SpallsHurgenson> (or perhaps I am misunderstanding things again)
[04:32:25] <SirFinkus> asshole, you know what I mean
[04:34:19] * SpallsHurgenson denies knowing anything
[04:37:54] <SpallsHurgenson> I mean, is that really so hard to believe?

[20:15:30] <FrogBlast> I think "Mother Christmas" is the one that pushed me over the edge.
[20:16:20] <K_benzoate> OS X has a system-wide keyboard shortcut to open an emoji pop up menu. cmd + ctrl + space
[20:17:21] <FrogBlast> Either it doesn't work in 10.4, or it doesn't work across Synergy... not sure which. :(
[20:18:50] <K_benzoate> I think it was added in 10.7 or even later.
