[00:00:35] <SirFinkus> oh wait, they added that in the latest alpha
[00:00:52] <takyon> talking about soylentnews.org
[00:01:05] <SirFinkus> I know, I was being obtuse
[00:01:29] <takyon> oh crap the comment count has exploded on scott walker
[00:01:29] <Bender> [SoylentNews] - Scott Walker Drops Out of US Presidential Race - http://sylnt.us - walk-away
[00:03:26] <takyon> and it was all ok
[00:03:42] <takyon> turns out soylentils want to talk about politics, who could have imagined that
[00:03:59] <SirFinkus> I don't see a single complaint about the story yet
[00:04:22] <takyon> I could black out if I wanted to
[00:08:01] <SirFinkus> never a good idea

[00:19:59] <SpallsHurgenson> bah, what's with all the politics on soylent? I thought it was a tech site :)
[00:19:59] <takyon> thar we go
[00:20:16] <takyon> brb
[00:20:33] <takyon> yeah fight me Spalls
[00:23:11] * SpallsHurgenson is always ready to offer a contrary opinion :)
[00:23:31] <SirFinkus> "So this song has a 10% thumbs up ratio, which proves what I've always known - that the masses are conformist asses and the majority are mindless sheep and followers.
[00:23:31] <SirFinkus> But that's all cool with me - I've always been happy to be a part of the minority of people who have superior intelligence, diverse musical tastes and the ability to think for themselves."
[00:23:52] <SirFinkus> "+Lee Wyser Who said that we think we're going to get a record deal? Everyone with a brain knows that record labels these days only sign mindless Pop/Dance music, lowbrow Hip-Hop, weak whiny Indie Rock, and other such trendy hipster garbage. Our music is far too unique, edgy, against-the-grain and outside of the norm to ever be signed in the 2000's. Back in the early 90's when A&R people and audiences actually had diverse
[00:23:52] <SirFinkus> open-minded tastes in music, we probably would have been though."
[00:23:57] <SirFinkus> etc
[00:27:49] <SpallsHurgenson> music snobs?
[00:31:19] <SpallsHurgenson> time usage when reinstalling windows: 5% determining whether its necessary, 15% for backing up, 8% copying from CDs, 12% staring at boot-up screens, 60% watching the "installing updates" ticker slowly inch to the right
[00:37:16] <SirFinkus> the artist himself
[00:41:02] <SirFinkus> "artist"
[00:47:28] <SpallsHurgenson> ah, the old "everybody hates my music because it's just too SOPHISTICATED for plebian tastes" :)
[00:47:51] <SirFinkus> yes
[00:48:44] <takyon> listen to this
[00:48:54] <SpallsHurgenson> I haven't heard his music so I don't know if its any good or not but I've proactively decided to hate it just because he used that excuse :)

[00:51:33] <SpallsHurgenson> well... it STARTED okay... then he opened his mouth
[00:53:07] <SpallsHurgenson> and 20 seconds later I couldn't take anymore :)
[00:54:08] <SpallsHurgenson> I guess I'm too plebian.
[00:54:35] <SpallsHurgenson> it may have something to do with a deeply-held belief that they haven't written any GOOD music since Dec 31 1989 :)

[01:04:00] <SpallsHurgenson> we're only spying on the europeans so their own intelligence apparati don't have to (just like they spy on US citizens so the us gov't can keep its hands clean :)
[01:05:53] <milkmaid> Hey
[01:06:04] <SpallsHurgenson> straw
[01:06:06] <takyon> I remember you I think
[01:06:49] <takyon> Europeans are lucky to be given any leeway from the American surveillance machine. It's our goodwill that you have any recourse whatsoever
[01:07:51] <SpallsHurgenson> the european governments are just as much into spying - on other nations and on their own people - as the US gov't. They just haven't been so sloppy as to be consistently caught doing it :)

[01:29:25] <takyon> facebook blimps to the rescue?
[01:29:57] <SpallsHurgenson> facebook is not the internet. it's like the anti-internet. it routes TOWARDS damage :)
[01:30:14] <takyon> only consensual brain damage
[01:30:33] <takyon> facebook's Internet.org guarantees access to a number of sites... not just facebook.com!
[01:31:47] <SpallsHurgenson> but they still get to harvest all our personal info, spam us with adverts, and provide us with an insecure line to the rest of the web, right?
[01:31:55] <Gravis> can the rss feed do authentication so that author filters apply in my rss reader?

[01:35:26] <Gravis> SpallsHurgenson: seems like a suspiciously short list. :P
[01:37:05] <Gravis> takyon: 28 years is a reasonable sentence, so he got off easy compared to your average joe.
[01:37:37] <Gravis> takyon: average joe would have gotten multiple life sentences.
[01:40:47] <Gravis> takyon: i would say the execs would be more careful about covering their tracks with email but they aren't a technically competent group
[01:41:22] <Gravis> takyon: he probably thought since he deleted it off his PC that the email was gone forever. :P
[01:44:42] <takyon> shoulda used
[01:44:46] <takyon> snapchat
[01:46:39] <SpallsHurgenson> always use IRC. It's insecure and often logged, but so full of nonsense that nobody ever reads anything said there :) :)
[01:47:31] <Gravis> lol
[01:48:12] <SpallsHurgenson> alas, since I gave that advice on IRC, nobody will ever heed it
[01:48:19] <Gravis> SpallsHurgenson: unfortunately, they invented this thing called SQL in the '70s that really puts a damper on that idea
[01:48:35] <chromas> irc-over-sql protocol
[01:48:51] <paulej72> The weather lady was stopped dead in her tracks when she realized that the green screen overlay was not working. Made me titter
[01:49:14] <Gravis> "titter"? o_O
[01:49:23] <SpallsHurgenson> even SQL throws up its hands at the shit said on IRC, "He said WHAT? That's it; I'm outta here"
[01:50:45] <Gravis> paulej72: please, with the 120K words in the english language, let's stay in 50K most popular
[01:51:00] * chromas logs irc to postgres, so I guess it kinds works
[01:51:49] <chromas> Next, let's just nuke those other 70k words from orbit
[01:51:51] <Gravis> SpallsHurgenson: i think if an exec saw IRC running, he would think his computer was broken.
[01:52:15] <Gravis> chromas: no don't! i'm saving them for scabble!
[01:52:21] <Gravis> scrabble*
[01:52:25] <SpallsHurgenson> hmmm... when I inherited this old laptop, it had those white spots in the corners of the screen... but no problem, since I could just hook it up its vga port. But after six months of disuse, the spots are almost gone. Happy :)
[01:53:02] <Gravis> SpallsHurgenson: after six months it's also obsolete. :P
[01:53:26] <Gravis> and VGA, really? -_-
[01:53:38] <SpallsHurgenson> I figure in another six months, the laptop will be fully usable
[01:54:04] <SpallsHurgenson> well, except for, you know, being seven years old and running Vista :)
[01:54:20] <SpallsHurgenson> and having a too-small HDD
[01:54:21] <Gravis> /facepalm
[01:54:25] <SpallsHurgenson> and a nonfunctional battery
[01:54:32] <SpallsHurgenson> and the keyboard not working
[01:54:35] <chromas> Install TempleOS
[01:54:36] <Gravis> upgrade to linux
[01:54:38] <SpallsHurgenson> and a cracked case
[01:55:02] <SpallsHurgenson> and one of the USB ports seems to be broken
[01:55:13] <SpallsHurgenson> but other than that, perfect condition!
[01:55:46] <Gravis> sadly there are no good linux laptops :(
[01:56:20] <SpallsHurgenson> its an HP laptop; it's too ungodly for the glory that is TempleOS :)
[01:56:21] * SirFinkus begins the drinking process
[01:56:31] <SirFinkus> oh shit, I missed templeos talk?
[01:56:51] <SirFinkus> oh, not much
[01:57:20] <SpallsHurgenson> testify, SirFinkus!
[01:57:37] <SpallsHurgenson> tell us of the holy OS!
[01:57:50] <Gravis> you could actually build a nice little computer to run TempleOS on but... then you would be running TempleOS.

[01:57:59] <Schwifty> ^ 03The Temple Operating System
[01:58:18] <SpallsHurgenson> I mean, is there really anything to be SAID about TempleOS? It's a half-assed OS written by a religious-nutter
[01:58:23] <Gravis> i mean, it's not complex, so you could implement the entire machine on FPGA
[01:58:53] <SirFinkus> The holocaust? Wanted to "compact" the Jews.
[01:59:01] <SirFinkus> have to admit, made me lol
[01:59:46] <SirFinkus> Favorite soda? Root beer, scotch variety.
[01:59:50] <Gravis> *sigh* that guy needs a blowdart of antipsychotics

[02:05:38] <paulej72> we should have a young pope. We have had young Dr Whos so why not a young Pope
[02:06:17] <takyon> pope francis is a young pope
[02:06:24] <takyon> after all he's not retired or dead
[02:06:59] <takyon> and he's got that million indulgence smile
[02:07:05] <paulej72> I want one that does not seem like he'll die if you squees his hand too hard
[02:07:22] <SirFinkus> fuck the pope
[02:07:23] <takyon> but pope francis has shunned the security measures of the previous popes
[02:07:28] <takyon> he's a pope of the people
[02:07:37] <SirFinkus> I didn't vote for him
[02:07:41] <paulej72> PS I am christian but not Catholic
[02:07:42] <SpallsHurgenson> it takes time to collect enough dirt on your fellow bishops to force them to vote you into office :)
[02:07:46] <takyon> g_d voted for him
[02:08:02] <SirFinkus> you didn't capitalize it takyon, you're going to hell
[02:08:19] <paulej72> we need a pope that has some regenerations left when he gets elected
[02:08:29] <SirFinkus> we need a VIRILE pope
[02:08:42] <takyon> I'm a euphoric atheist, i got a VIP ticket to hell
[02:09:04] * SpallsHurgenson gives kitty a gentle tap with his toe to stop her snoring
[02:09:17] <SirFinkus> I said "fuck the pope", so I probably have my own circle
[02:10:03] <SirFinkus> aww, I only make it down to the 6th circle with that
[02:10:26] <SpallsHurgenson> what if you ACTUALLY fuck the pope?
[02:10:41] <paulej72> they save the inner circles for the popes that like to fuck
[02:10:41] <SirFinkus> that's only the second level
[02:11:00] <takyon> fucking pope in the arse sexual prank 2015
[02:11:26] <SpallsHurgenson> and if you tempt him into fucking you?

[02:14:07] <SpallsHurgenson> let us never forget the lesson of pope joan
[02:20:11] <Gravis> wow this place devolved fast with SpallsHurgenson's influence
[02:20:57] <SirFinkus> naw, it was devolving anyway
[02:21:02] <takyon> I was a major catalyst, let me assure you
[02:21:30] <SirFinkus> every irc chat eventually devolves into apostasy and/or homoerotica
[02:21:38] <Gravis> takyon: you were a pawn
[02:21:50] <SirFinkus> it's the irc equivilant of godwin's law
[02:21:57] <SirFinkus> wait, maybe that's just discussions I'm involved in
[02:22:09] <Gravis> SirFinkus: that sounds like an argument a nazi would make
[02:22:28] <takyon> gravis: if I was a pawn
[02:22:36] <SirFinkus> you know the nazis banned smoking
[02:22:36] <takyon> it started at the first sip

[02:26:04] <takyon> that'd be a good way to consume everclear/grain alcohol

[02:30:06] <takyon> an everclear footbath? sounds easy
[02:30:21] <SirFinkus> inject it
[02:30:49] <Gravis> SirFinkus: for near instant death?
[02:30:56] <takyon> needles are for shots and heroin users
[02:31:02] <takyon> so no thanks
[02:31:09] <SirFinkus> naw, it doesn't kill you unless you do too much
[02:31:13] <takyon> no need to inject into my eyeball to increase potency
[02:31:50] <paulej72> do you need to clean the injection site if you are injecting alcohol?

[02:32:13] <takyon> paulej72 ahahahahahahahahahhahahahahhahahahah

[02:35:54] <Gravis> the fact that it's banned is fucking retarded
[02:36:26] <SirFinkus> they were retarded in how they marketed it
[02:36:47] <takyon> they marketed as something you could bring camping I thought
[02:36:51] <takyon> seemed innocent enough
[02:36:57] <SirFinkus> no, their initial site
[02:37:02] <takyon> oh and useful for... making airplane beverages
[02:37:21] <SirFinkus> lots of *wink* *wink* about bringing it into concerts and sporting events
[02:37:33] <paulej72> ^^^^^^^
[02:37:34] <SirFinkus> they quickly amended the site
[02:38:18] <takyon> aww man now we'll have to bring cocaine instead
[02:38:40] <Gravis> SirFinkus: still not a legitimate reason to ban it.
[02:39:01] <takyon> Gravis: we're far beyond "legitimate reasons"
[02:39:08] <takyon> just look at the Controlled Subtances Act
[02:39:23] <SirFinkus> didn't say it was legit
[02:39:46] <SirFinkus> none of the drug laws are legitimate
[02:39:59] <Gravis> SirFinkus: you did to say it was legit
[02:40:07] <Gravis> SirFinkus: it's in the quantum IRC log
[02:40:15] <Gravis> SirFinkus: if you check it, will change. :P

[02:42:09] <Gravis> you mad, bro? :P
[02:42:15] <SirFinkus> naw, it's all in good fun
[02:42:17] <takyon> give me tha cancer
[02:42:47] <SirFinkus> I was just excited that I remembered that line and applied it later
[02:43:04] <Gravis> that's sad. -_-
[02:43:20] <SirFinkus> life's little pleasures
[02:43:32] -!- SpallsHurgenson has quit [Quit: Nettalk6 - www.ntalk.de]
[02:43:46] <Gravis> disappointments*
[02:44:25] <SirFinkus> hey
[02:44:30] <Gravis> anyway, i just think it's retarded to ban something based on it's form rather than what it is
[02:44:30] <SirFinkus> I'm a BIG dissapointment
[02:44:37] <SirFinkus> don't shortsell me
[02:45:06] <Gravis> SirFinkus: don't worry... you'll always disappoint us all.
[02:45:30] <SirFinkus> I think it's retarded to ban any drug, regardless of form
[02:45:52] <SirFinkus> aside from obvious things like mustard gas
[02:46:06] <SirFinkus> I don't think mustard gas has any recreational potential
[02:46:15] <Gravis> oh, now "war crimes" are a "no no"?
[02:46:18] <Gravis> TYPICAL!
[02:46:47] * SirFinkus huffs some sarin
[02:46:58] <Gravis> SirFinkus: you prude. i should be able to gas any town i want!
[02:49:45] <Gravis> SirFinkus: things that are extremely addictive to all humans should be banned.
[02:50:16] <SirFinkus> like sex?
[02:50:25] <Gravis> it's not extremely addictive
[02:50:32] <SirFinkus> oh, ok
[02:50:36] <Gravis> i mean like heroin
[02:51:01] <takyon> heroin and nicotine
[02:51:12] <SirFinkus> so how does banning heroin benefit society?
[02:51:14] <takyon> of course, nicotine won't ever be fully banned
[02:51:21] <takyon> and heroin won't be eliminated
[02:51:55] <cmn32480> Gravis> cmn32480: sumit it? what do you take me for, a news monkey?!
[02:52:07] <cmn32480> gravis - yes! Be at one with the news monkey!
[02:52:07] <takyon> cocaine, heroin, and meth are the drugs that are doing real harm to people. and even then banning them is not necessarily the best way to get people off them
[02:52:24] <takyon> what are you on, cmn32480
[02:52:36] <SirFinkus> he's been butt-chugging
[02:52:47] <takyon> inspirational
[02:52:53] <paulej72> if they were legal and clean would we have less issues with people od'ing
[02:52:56] <Gravis> takyon: getting people off them? oh that's a whole other deal.
[02:52:57] <cmn32480> I had 2 Pumpkinhead Ale's earlier
[02:53:07] <takyon> >drinking pumpkin beer
[02:53:24] <Gravis> takyon: it's easier to just bury them
[02:53:30] <takyon> indeed
[02:53:55] <SirFinkus> the illegality just makes things worse
[02:54:22] <Gravis> SirFinkus: that depends on your objective
[02:54:56] <SirFinkus> ok, what is your objective?
[02:55:35] <Gravis> well... you see... i have this OS i'm working on called TempleOS. ;D
[02:55:52] <SirFinkus> ahh
[02:56:31] <SirFinkus> what you want is the gasses that were leaking in the cave of that guy who wrote the book of revelations
[02:56:36] <SirFinkus> that was John right?
[02:56:37] <Gravis> SirFinkus: i don't have an objective here, i'm just pointing out that one's objective changes if a certain law is helpful.
[02:57:50] <Gravis> SirFinkus: some people want a society without these things and would rather the riff-raff that decide to cross the line be eaten by the legal machine than deal with them
[02:58:26] <Gravis> SirFinkus: you are going with "it's not your fault" approach to drugs
[02:58:34] <SirFinkus> not at all
[02:58:51] <SirFinkus> my approach is this
[02:58:59] <SirFinkus> someone is addicted to heroin
[02:59:02] <SirFinkus> they made that choice
[02:59:18] <SirFinkus> my thing is making the choice to stop using heroin as easy as possible
[02:59:28] <Gravis> SirFinkus: so wouldn't executing them on the spot end the problem?
[02:59:50] <SirFinkus> that has an extreme societal cost
[03:00:23] <paulej72> no it's cheaper. They will die anyway
[03:00:57] <SirFinkus> cheaper? that's assuming no judicial apparatus, which I think most people would want
[03:01:18] <SirFinkus> summary execution isn't really the most "just"
[03:01:32] <Gravis> oh... now you need it to be "just"
[03:01:42] <Gravis> what, you want person freedoms too?
[03:01:52] <Gravis> personal*
[03:01:53] <SirFinkus> I'm assuming a basic level of human decency here
[03:01:54] <paulej72> Philly is going to make a fortune on towing and tickets for cars they are moving for the pope visit
[03:02:07] <Gravis> SirFinkus: this is the internet, there is no decency here!
[03:02:27] <SirFinkus> I've heard tales of distant corners of the internet where decency still exists
[03:02:57] <Gravis> SirFinkus: vicious lies!
[03:04:54] <SirFinkus> what did they call it in mad max, the green lands?

[03:09:31] <Deucalion> Hmm.... linux Steam buffs.... how to get Postal 2 to behave properly with a multi monitor setup? Bastard thing just seems to mirror over my monitors then set the external to a crap resolution then run in a window within that monitor.
[03:09:53] <SirFinkus> shit, that's a rough one
[03:10:24] <SirFinkus> multi monitors always seems to fuck up with fullscreen games
[03:10:48] <SirFinkus> it's even better when you want 2 different dpi scaling options
[03:12:25] <SirFinkus> Deucalion your distro, wm, and graphics card info might be helpful
[03:12:35] <SirFinkus> to someone who actually might be able to help you
[03:14:19] <Gravis> Deucalion: with steam? well... let me look at the source... oh hmm... there's your problem
[03:15:07] <Gravis> #unhelpful #yourewelcome
[03:16:33] <Gravis> Deucalion: your best bet is to dig into the game and see if there are some command line switches you can throw and then execute it directly. alternatively, search the steam forums
[03:17:11] <SirFinkus> as if you'd dig through the steam source code to fix an obscure issue for a guy on irc
[03:17:44] <Gravis> SirFinkus: of course not but i would be able to give a different unhelpful response!
[03:18:15] <SirFinkus> "this is BSD and not GNU, I can't in good conscience help you"
[03:18:39] <Gravis> meh... public domain or gtfo

[03:20:06] <Gravis> FOSS people love their copyright but hate other people's copyright. :P
[03:20:07] <Deucalion> SirFinkus, Gravis - decided it best to move my steam gaming back over to my desktop which has a discrete GPU - rather than running my lappy at 80+C running this stuff. Job for tomorrow. Game was "Sir, You Are Being Hunted" - funny as hell - was on offer the w/e just gone.
[03:20:51] <SirFinkus> honestly, windows seems to handle multiple monitors best out of all the oses I've used
[03:21:24] <SirFinkus> I haven't used a desktop linux distro in about a year though
[03:21:28] <Gravis> Deucalion: "w/e"?
[03:22:17] <Deucalion> Gravis, w/e = weekend. My apologies I know that is more commonly used for whatever.

[03:30:58] <takyon> that's incredible
[03:31:01] <Gravis> Deucalion: the problem is you are cutting words into pieces and not even really abbreviating them.
[03:31:12] <takyon> all I had in mind for "IALMAOWJOTSJ" was something incredibly lwed
[03:31:36] <Gravis> Deucalion: you are declaring that the english language is a joke and then shitting on it for spite.
[03:31:50] <takyon> english is imperialism
[03:31:54] <takyon> therefore we must abuse it
[03:32:27] <Gravis> Deucalion: so please... dont shit on your keyboard, type like a human.

[03:42:58] <Deucalion> Gravis, quite a leap of logic there - you have the fortitude to implant yourself in my mind and assess my views on the English language... quite a skill, that you do not possess when we come to it. I would posit, you are in a losing position when trying to argue English language semantics with someone who is English. Back to your foxhole you language troll, this is a battle you do not want to fight.
