[23:59:39] <Ethanol-fooled> Allright, SN is working again.
[23:59:12] <Bender> [SoylentNews] - Bring on the Night, say National Park Visitors in New Study - http://sylnt.us - let-there-be-night
[23:56:19] -!- JamesNZ [JamesNZ!~james@130.195.jkt.hg] has joined #Soylent
[23:55:20] <n1> Stranger things have happened.
[23:55:09] <n1> maybe in another few years we'll be able to look back at Libya as a success.
[23:52:31] <n1> mission accomplished and all that, good times.
[23:51:34] <n1> oh wait...
[23:51:32] <n1> wonder what the situation would be in iraq if someone had taken out saddam 10 years ago...
[23:51:29] <mythterj> More like Lebanon I suspect.
[23:51:22] <n1> the people give up their liberties willingly, because of the threat presented by the gov and media, who are only interested in selling fear to maintain their power.
[23:51:17] <mythterj> I wonder what the situation in Syria would be today if someone had taken Assad out 10 years ago when this all started..
[23:50:09] <n1> little has changed....
[23:50:07] <n1> 20 years later
[23:49:45] <Ethanol-fooled> Huh, that's interesting -- I didn't know that Saudi Arabia was preparing for war with Yemein in 1994 to distract the population from the country's problems.
[23:49:33] <n1> i believe is the current state of affairs in Syria anyway
[23:49:20] <Schwifty> ^ 03Interview with Mohammed Al Khilewi: "Saudi Arabia Is Trying to Kill Me" :: Daniel Pipes
[23:49:19] <Ethanol-fooled> http://www.danielpipes.org
[23:49:18] <n1> NATO vs Assad .... Assad vs. ISIS ... NATO vs, ISIS ... Assad vs. Kurds ... ISIS vs. Kurds ... Turkey vs. Kurds ... Russia vs. ISIS ... NATO vs. Russia
[23:49:08] <Ethanol-fooled> when people give up their liberties everytime a terrorist attack happens, that is when the terrorists win.
[23:46:34] <n1> if the terrorists are winning, whatever that means, it's because the governments and media in the west eat up every little bit of PR they put out.
[23:45:29] <n1> and when they do something, they're very respectful and understand we can only handle one event every 2 or 3 years
[23:44:56] <n1> cant fight their way out of a wet paper bag
[23:44:51] <n1> considering how serious the terrorism is in the conflict areas, it's amazing the ones that make it here, which we are told number in the hundreds or thousands
[23:43:40] <n1> so i'm sure it'll work out....
[23:43:35] <n1> but then the CIA, MI6 etc are also milling in those crowds
[23:43:27] <n1> mythterj, they probably are
[23:43:25] <Ethanol-fooled> mytherj, you can count on it.
[23:43:15] <Ethanol-fooled> The "divide and conquer" trick is working wonderfully in the U.S. politically.
[23:43:13] <mythterj> My worry is that a great deal if ISIS is milling about in that herd of mostly males... Nobody is checking.
[23:43:12] <n1> yup
[23:43:01] <Ethanol-fooled> And divided societies are less likely to get together and rise up against the real injustice.
[23:42:08] <n1> Ethanol-fooled, pretty much my thoughts.
[23:41:53] <n1> so imagine how much we spend on freedom and all that jazz
[23:41:40] <n1> look at all that military hardware we've been parading infront of them for decades, we clearly dont mind splashing the cash on multimillion dollar everything military
[23:41:30] <Ethanol-fooled> possibly with the endgame of a form of slavery-lite.
[23:40:48] <n1> material wealth, healthcare
[23:40:34] <n1> powerhouse economies, with jobs for everyone who's willing to work hard
[23:40:16] <n1> about how awesome we are, how much freedom we have
[23:40:10] <n1> mythterj, decades of propaganda
[23:40:05] <n1> the 'de facto state in eastern syria' would be good to isolate assad or whatever that shit was.
[23:39:52] <mythterj> Kinda reminds me of when a bazillion kids from south america suddenly flooded into the US. There is something driving it which the press isn't covering.
[23:39:39] <n1> wasn't it just in 2012 that AQinIraq was the solution to the Assad problem?
[23:39:35] <Ethanol-fooled> Another thing I considered is that it would be some kind of economic reset, to lower the wages and standards of living for everybody else all for the purpose of keeping the economic-voodoo gravy-train a-rollin'.
[23:39:13] <n1> "Former CIA director David Petraeus is advocating giving arms to members of al-Nusra Front, an al-Qaida off-shoot, to beat Isis. "
[23:38:50] <Ethanol-fooled> n1, I kinda think so. There's an obvious agenda here. And everywhere else it's happening.
[23:38:18] <n1> but i think thats actually what this is being used for, an excuse to ramp up the police state to new levels of insanity
[23:37:46] <Ethanol-fooled> Well, I think not turning their countries into rubble and incubating radical terrorism would possibly help more in the long-term.
[23:37:46] <n1> sounds fucking beautiful
[23:37:43] <n1> im not up for that, lets fuck ourselves over, build a big ass fence around the country and start an even bigger papers please big brother society
[23:37:19] <n1> is to make it worse for everyone
[23:37:16] <n1> the only solution, to stop people coming here
[23:37:08] <n1> then why wouldn't they keep moving
[23:37:06] <Ethanol-fooled> Bahahahaah
[23:37:04] <Ethanol-fooled> YET, n1. YET.
[23:36:57] <n1> but wont get chased out of germany, uk etc
[23:36:52] <n1> and if they're being chased out of hungary, greece and italy etc
[23:36:40] <n1> people are doing what they think is best for them
[23:36:07] <Ethanol-fooled> And they can't settle in just any country...it MUST be the UK, Germany, or Sweden.
[23:36:04] <mythterj> I'm amazed how deep into central europe they got before the press got wind of it.
[23:36:02] <n1> quite right, and that meddling goes back 100 years, but we're doing the best we can to avoid even linking this to the fallout from the most recent iraq war
[23:35:36] <mythterj> Most of these are from aledgedly from a refugee camp in northern seria that just skedaddled over the border in mass.
[23:35:27] <Ethanol-fooled> But this problem was caused by meddling in the Middle East. Meddling that should have been avoided.
[23:34:59] <n1> there are going to be lots of variations on the hows and the whys, people are coming from several countries with varying degrees of conflict and poverty through various different methods
[23:33:54] <n1> it depends how they're getting out, this is not a simple situation
[23:33:26] <mythterj> So leave the women behind for the militants? Seems odd.
[23:32:46] <n1> and the men are probably being pushed into joining one of the half dozen militant factions in the area theyve come from
[23:32:31] <n1> so i wouldn't take the gender ratio too seriously, although there probably is more men than women, the men may be seen as more likely to survive the journey, get a job when they arrive to then bring the rest of the family back
[23:32:24] <Ethanol-fooled> Yeah, I sure don't.
[23:31:45] <n1> i wouldnt trust the media for shit when showing whats actually going on
[23:31:06] <mythterj> We've already taken in 12 million refugies, but just give it time, I'm sure we will take more.
[23:30:40] <Ethanol-fooled> mytherj, they should allow only single women to seek refugee status.
[23:30:20] <mythterj> Still you have to wonder why so few women...
[23:30:10] <Ethanol-fooled> Yeah, that's one thing that's kind of hard to find...where is the anger at America for all this?
[23:29:31] <n1> why cant they stay where we're bombing them and/or propping up dictators damn it?
[23:29:09] <n1> next week it will be back to anger
[23:29:00] <n1> it's only the last week they changed the tone, with the pic of the dead kid
[23:28:52] <n1> to be fair, theyve been going with the populist anger all year
[23:28:43] <Ethanol-fooled> So progressive!
[23:28:35] <Ethanol-fooled> And as usual the media is doing an excellent job of rallying people to the charity cause and utterly ignoring populist anger.
[23:28:31] <n1> things already are interesting
[23:27:58] <Ethanol-fooled> Yep, things are gonna get interesting.
[23:26:37] <mythterj> I also noticed that images of refugee crouds are almost completely male (military age), with some childred, and relativly few women.
[23:25:35] <mythterj> Yeah, I was wondering just how long the "welcome mat" will be out, after they all get undated...
[23:24:58] <Ethanol-fooled> Europe must be progressive to, er, progress.
[23:24:32] <Ethanol-fooled> On a trollish note, more multiculturalism is coming to Europe! Aren't you all excited?
[23:21:01] <n1> that could be quite nice
[23:20:29] <Ethanol-fooled> Maybe a wood plank pattern and a dartboard?
[23:20:16] <Ethanol-fooled> So, yellows and browns?
[23:20:08] <chromas> beer theme
[23:19:57] <Ethanol-fooled> what would be some good ideas for a soylent theme?
[23:19:49] <n1> :|
[23:19:44] <chromas> maybe a new soylent theme
[23:19:43] <n1> this is really strange, ive not had one failed page load today
[23:19:04] <Ethanol-fooled> I'm just going to be lazy for now.
[23:18:48] <Ethanol-fooled> the novelty of it wore off, chromas.
[23:17:55] <chromas> Ethanol-fooled: you could hack on your bot
[23:17:52] <Ethanol-fooled> I just hit F5 like 25 times in a row without a single load. I doubt it'll be back up until it's back up.

[02:33:59] * Deucalion is about to rehash the ircd - fingers crossed
[02:23:44] <Deucalion> I stole Deucalion from Vega Strike tbh. Not intentionally, the nick just popped into my head when I was looking to change up, only later it dawned on me why the name was in my head. Funny how things work.
[02:22:17] <crutchy> brb
[02:22:16] <crutchy> damn headache :<
[02:21:28] <Deucalion> no doubt.
[02:21:18] <crutchy> i'm a slave to her chest
[02:20:58] <crutchy> lol nah you're no competition for her. sorry :p

[01:49:56] <SpallsHurgenson> yes, it just proves you are more efficient than the guys who engineered the thing :)
[01:48:43] <cmn32840> extra parts after assembly are normal, right?
[01:46:42] <cmn32840> no worries. not exactly gotta happen today
[01:44:24] <Deucalion> bleh, looks like I'll have to change the server config file and rehash the daemon, not something I can change via a client.
[01:44:18] <n1> i dont get my hands dirty, but the end result works ;)
[01:43:03] <cmn32840> you coudl tell us, but you'ld ahve to kill us?
[01:42:49] <n1> top secret ;)
[01:41:35] <Deucalion> What's the new business venture n1?
[01:41:20] <Deucalion> Such is life - have to get the priorities right
[01:41:18] <SpallsHurgenson> google's new favicon really annoys me for some reason
[01:38:49] <n1> between that and i had to relocate, it's been hard to get the motivation to come on here sadly
[01:38:13] <n1> month behind but finally done the soft launch of the new one this week.
[01:36:34] <Deucalion> how's business?
[01:36:29] <Deucalion> likewise
[01:36:15] <n1> but still, good to see you still around :)
[01:36:09] <Deucalion> Q.E.D.
[01:35:55] <n1> and i read thats a grope...
[01:35:19] <Deucalion> n1, I got tired of the boobie jests and grouped another nick
[01:35:11] <cmn32840> he got a reduction and became Deucalion
[01:34:51] * n1 was wondering where juggs went
[01:34:18] <Deucalion> Yeh - I never really see it either - it's there of course but all the channels pop up when I re-connect so I pay little attention to the server channel, thanks for bringing it to my attention
[01:33:23] <Deucalion> I should certainly update it to show Deucalion rather than juggs :)
[01:33:23] <cmn32840> I happened to notice it when I was playing around earlier today on the web client
[01:32:57] <cmn32840> Deucalion - your call.
[01:32:38] <cmn32840> I think flex labor pretty well describes you
[01:32:15] <n1> needed to be something fitting for me lol
[01:32:14] <Deucalion> I see xlefay, me, Landon, pj and FunPika - I think there's only myself and pj actively doing anything these days, IRC-wise. That's a short list :( I think sentiment keeps xlefay and Landon on that list :D
[01:32:10] <n1> thanks ;)
[01:32:04] <cmn32840> then I shall back out of it and let you ahve all the glory
[01:31:53] <n1> Flex Labour will be 1000
[01:31:46] <n1> !
[01:31:45] <n1> yup

[01:07:17] <n1> i'd just rather people stopped ruining good music with their singing.

[01:05:43] <crutchy> bee gees are awesome

[01:04:52] * crutchy will be playing bee gees songs for the next 3 hours
[01:04:46] <n1> haha
[01:04:31] <crutchy> oh fuck. there was bee gees in the related vids o.O
[01:03:19] <n1> you're too kind, let them suffer by eating the stuff.
[01:02:29] <SpallsHurgenson> ... without a machine gun :)
[01:02:13] <n1> the mistake you're making is going into fast-food joints
[01:01:29] <SpallsHurgenson> is it wrong that everytime I go into a fast-food joint I think of that scene (and sympathize? :)

[00:57:07] <crutchy> yeah i'd rather bono be executed before sting
[00:56:35] <SpallsHurgenson> but... but... my face-lair!
[00:56:31] <n1> that would be great
[00:56:29] <n1> well, if bono can be put in place a week before the revolution
[00:56:16] <crutchy> or bono?
[00:56:11] <crutchy> like sting?
[00:55:53] <n1> the one who gets executed when the revolution comes, and you just get to install a new frontman

[00:54:31] <n1> those strategies have been working pretty well for quite some time now
[00:54:08] <n1> easily done, make sure no one else with credibility can get on the ballot, or just keep having elections until the people vote the right way
[00:52:04] <SpallsHurgenson> only if I can be supreme ruling dictator for life.
[00:49:47] <n1> would offend the wrong people perhaps, the rest would prefer we didn't indulge in fantasy about functioning democracy
