[03:54:32] <crutchy> ~time london
[03:54:23] <Alco-fueled> yeah it's niceer int heory than in practice :/
[03:54:22] <crutchy> Deucalion, haha yeah prolly
[03:54:13] <crutchy> the only deterrent is nukes. if russia and china didn't have nukes the US would have bullied them too
[03:53:45] <Deucalion> crutchy, the point is to deter war - the more countries that have redonkulous weapons the more it forces diplomacy and co-operation. The only worry is some mad bastard getting their hands on the GO button. Oh crap - and now we are right back into cold war BS. I should sleep.
[03:51:34] <crutchy> and even the aussie subs have been known to get around the US fleets in exercises
[03:51:06] <crutchy> Deucalion, russia has always had bigger and better subs
[03:51:03] <Alco-fueled> even bids and plants :3
[03:49:51] <Deucalion> steam*
[03:49:50] <Alco-fueled> Australia is filled with living weapons anyway :P
[03:49:25] <Deucalion> They never get near to war zones and are escorted by a ridiculous amount of fir power in the attending fleet. US does military power to the max. Whether it is sensible is an exercise for the reader, but the US do military overload very well.... not that it works so well in the middle east but credit where credit is due... for shear firepower it's all AWE and TERROR when the US stem in :D Much like the late C19th
[03:48:42] <crutchy> but now its just helichoppers
[03:48:34] <crutchy> i think we only ever had a couple of small ones anyway
[03:46:33] <crutchy> even australia gave up on carriers
[03:45:56] <Alco-fueled> yup
[03:45:47] <crutchy> true. the US ones are kinda just political tools too. they work for bullying small countries, but in an all out war they are just massive targets
[03:45:43] <Deucalion> I prefer detente to all out war.
[03:44:56] <Alco-fueled> it's only the US that has superbig carriers, everyone else has smallish ones
[03:44:26] <crutchy> for political showmanship
[03:44:13] <crutchy> the carrier thing is probably just a front
[03:44:05] * crutchy wouldn't be surprised if china was doing subs. even though i know they are doing some carriers too
[03:43:40] <Alco-fueled> add some sharks on that!
[03:43:24] <Alco-fueled> :D
[03:43:16] <Deucalion> Nukes on sub launched missiles are the scariest.... that is so "don't tread on me"......
[03:43:11] <crutchy> i think thats why russia is still so powerful. even without carriers. the ol ruskies know carriers are useless
[03:42:11] <crutchy> true. submarine launched missiles are scary
[03:41:49] <Deucalion> Nuke subs though... they can pop up anywhere and glass an area when you least expect it. teehee :D
[03:41:17] <crutchy> missiles rule the battlefield
[03:40:47] <crutchy> in a big war they will be the first to be sunk
[03:40:34] <crutchy> carriers are already obsolete
[03:39:54] <Alco-fueled> it was just someone wondering what he studied and it was Comp. Sci (Lite version according to him)
[03:39:35] <Deucalion> Yeh - the raging UK - sold all the harrier spares to the US then bought into carriers with no planes to put on them. Genius. All the while the plebs are beaten with sticks to bring the deficit down. Thanks.
[03:38:54] <crutchy> wasnt here when it was asked though
[03:38:37] <Alco-fueled> ah ok
[03:38:12] <crutchy> nah i already knew

It's only a matter of time before it gets subverted somehow :D Nice thing is, it makes IRC appear exactly as it did 20+ years ago... I swear somethings just do not need re-inventing, it's done, it works, leave it the fuck alone. :D
[01:58:03] <crutchy> soylent irc > freenode
[01:57:55] <crutchy> i thought the server split it shorter normallly, but maybe that's freenode
[01:57:25] <crutchy> rambling is good. makes me feel like home :)
[01:56:45] <takyon> it's a miracle of programming
[01:56:38] <Deucalion> I apologise for rambling... as you were
[01:56:38] <takyon> hexchat does it
[01:56:10] <Deucalion> I just type a lot and my client seems to split it to 2 posts
[01:56:09] <takyon> it's the cusp
[01:55:48] <Deucalion> crutchy, I don't think so
[01:55:41] <crutchy> hmm or maybe that's the normmal lengths
[01:55:39] <Deucalion> It's been quite a trip watching how the expansion of connectivity and communication has effectively shrunk the world.
[01:55:29] <crutchy> Deucalion, wow dude are you allowed to write longer lines than everyone else?
[01:54:15] <takyon> just look at soylentnews
[01:54:10] <takyon> it's easy to start an insular internet community
[01:50:23] <Deucalion> years ago.... some things were built to last.
[01:50:23] <Deucalion> Ethanol-fueled, sure. I only had internet access on Uni campus during my first year and that was all via UNIX mainframe, 2nd year I burnt a shitload of cash buying my own PC and getting a dial up connection. But it was naive fun as it was the dawn of ubiquitous connectivity.... log onto ICQ and talk to someone 10000s of miles away... that was new! And fast forward... we're still here on a Saturday night using IRC... just like I did all those
[01:49:18] <Ethanol-fueled> chromas, in the last class, we had a lot of readings written by ****** academics from the Ivy League, ranting on and on about "Straight White Male Privilige", themselves having never set foot in a real ghetto.
[01:46:37] <Ethanol-fueled> that's not necessarily a bad thing, though.
[01:46:13] <Ethanol-fueled> Deucalion, the barrier to entry was much higher back then.
[01:46:09] <chromas> sounds like you're oppressing the alphabet
[01:45:39] <Ethanol-fueled> I read acronyms that were like...no joke...9 letters long.
[01:45:28] <Bender> karma - scary_ideas: -1
[01:45:28] <chromas> scary_ideas--
[01:45:09] <chromas> :D
[01:44:41] <Ethanol-fueled> Oh sweet Jesus, chromas, and what a humorous reading it was.
[01:44:05] <Deucalion> Ethanol-fueled, in hindsight is was the blue hour for connectivity. The Web was just forming up and was all new... the connect to anyone anywhere anytime thing was a new concept. Now that is just taken for granted, but it was nice to see it dawn and rise. Then the advertisers and corps came and it became the rancid shithole we have today.
[01:44:04] <Ethanol-fueled> Oh fuck, it does!
[01:44:00] <Ethanol-fueled> HAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAH
[01:43:34] <Ethanol-fueled> lemme check...
[01:43:16] <chromas> Ethanol-fueled: does your school have a Safe Space?
[01:42:22] <Alco-fueled> not so sure there's been much change, a lull of sort between the marxism and now
[01:42:12] <Ethanol-fueled> ("If some people are slow to grasp technology, it is due to straight White male oppression."
[01:41:30] <Ethanol-fueled> er...neo-leftist politics. proto-leftism is somewhat tolerable.
[01:41:01] <Ethanol-fueled> and extreme proto-leftist politics is shoved into even technology classes.
[01:40:46] <Deucalion> ~shrug~ progress is good. Could do without the marketing BS of course, redefining terms and selling old concepts as new again... but I guess that is the same in every sector, just in tech the cycles come faster.
[01:40:35] <Ethanol-fueled> Before everything went full-batshit crazy.
[01:40:20] <Ethanol-fueled> Man, it must have been awesome going to university back then.
[01:38:22] <Alco-fueled> yes
[01:38:10] <Deucalion> Early 90s was Uni time for me. We live in different times now. Tech has become commoditised in the interim time. Soooo much change in just ~25 years.
[01:37:35] <Ethanol-fueled> And even in the Win98 days it would BSOD for no reason at all.
[01:37:01] <Alco-fueled> that's how Sun could afford fold-out techporn^Wserver ads
[01:36:36] <Ethanol-fueled> They seemed simpler but never crashed, WinShit crashed every 5 seconds.
[01:36:11] <Ethanol-fueled> I felt that way about the SGI boxes, although that was probably much later than your experience.
[01:35:51] <Alco-fueled> answer: lots
[01:35:29] <Deucalion> I like the SUN Sparcstations when I was at Uni... had some nice hi res screens, early X desktop and glass mouse mats with optical mice many years before they became mainstream. Very nice machines. Fuck knows what they cost at the time, but they were very nice to use in comparison to the x86 Win box labs at the time.
[01:34:57] <Alco-fueled> XD
[01:34:52] <SirFinkus> burned down
[01:32:30] <Alco-fueled> and similar for other places
[01:32:09] <Alco-fueled> I wonder what happened to the local Sun-shop
[01:30:59] <Alco-fueled> :)
[01:30:56] <Ethanol-fueled> (Bahah.)
[01:30:53] <Ethanol-fueled> anyone remember SUN?
[01:30:47] <Ethanol-fueled> Nope.
[01:29:52] <Alco-fueled> anyone remember Jini?
[01:29:36] <Alco-fueled> haha I love Python, so easy even I can do something without effort
[01:29:20] <Alco-fueled> technically you're correct but in practice
[01:29:13] <Ethanol-fueled> if you want to complain about easy programming languages giving professional access to idiots, there's Python. Bahaha!
[01:28:37] <Ethanol-fueled> alco, nothing wrong with Java.
[01:28:23] <SirFinkus> just not worht it
[01:28:23] <Alco-fueled> I used to be a big Java fan-boy around 96 or so
[01:28:18] <SirFinkus> wouldn't call it gross though
[01:28:16] <Deucalion> An IPA with chillis?
[01:28:10] <SirFinkus> yeah, I kind of regret buying it
[01:27:52] <Ethanol-fueled> gross, Finkus.
[01:27:09] * SirFinkus just had a habanero scuplin
[01:27:02] <Alco-fueled> I avoid Java too
[01:26:47] * Alco-fueled already had one but now has two
[01:26:46] <SirFinkus> I was going to try it, but it requires java, so fuck that
[01:26:38] <Ethanol-fueled> I'm drinking, slowly but surely.
[01:26:22] * Deucalion gets Alco-fueled a beer
[01:26:06] <Deucalion> not tried it.
[01:25:30] <SirFinkus> yeah, it's supposed to be like popcorn time for music
[01:25:16] <Deucalion> SirFinkus, Aurous music thing? (google tells me)
[01:25:10] <Alco-fueled> what's that?
[01:24:31] <Alco-fueled> XD
[01:24:27] Yog-Yogguth is now known as Alco-fueled
[01:24:20] <SirFinkus> anyone tried that new Aurous shit?
[01:24:06] <Deucalion> That'll knock the aggression out of you :D Did that at metal gigs 20 something years ago. Much fun being boisterous :D
[01:23:07] <Ethanol-fueled> Generally embracing more healthy habits, plus went to a punk show Thursday and went in the pit.
[01:22:15] <Deucalion> What's up EF? You've not resorted to all CAPS yet.... this is Saturday night, I'm worried about you :P
[01:21:47] <SirFinkus> plenty of hot chicks you don't need to charm with glowsticks out there
[01:20:56] <Ethanol-fueled> Plus yeah, hot chicks, or dudes, or whatever you're into.
[01:19:40] <Ethanol-fueled> It is repulsive in every possible way, but only because they're trying to mazimize the stimulation they get from the drugs. And doing so requires assaults on all your senses.
[01:19:30] <SirFinkus> not that repulsed
[01:19:23] <SirFinkus> I'll jack off to pictures of slutty rave chicks though
[01:18:33] <SirFinkus> I'll keep that in mind, but the whole MDMA culture is so repulsive to me I've written of the drug somewhat
[01:17:07] <Ethanol-fueled> at least not as fun as watcching colored lights and listening to music.
[01:16:51] <Ethanol-fueled> sex isn't, SirFink.
[01:16:42] <Ethanol-fueled> Not that "House" shit though. (Is "house" music even still a thing?)
[01:16:23] <SirFinkus> probably awesome on mdma, but a lot of things are probably awesome on mdma
[01:16:18] <Ethanol-fueled> Some techno is listenable.
[01:15:51] <Deucalion> umm-tish umm-tish umm-tish at 120 - 150bpm how can it be bad? :P
[01:15:00] <Deucalion> :D
[01:14:51] <SirFinkus> "tunes" is a generous term
[01:14:47] <Yog-Yogguth> watchlist.com
[01:14:27] <takyon> Amazon.com recommendations, the ultimate watchlist
[01:14:09] * Ethanol-fueled orders Turner Diaries from Amazon
[01:14:08] <Deucalion> Yeh me neither... the whole gurning and jumping around to repetitive bass tunes thing... nah. Just give me a beer :)
[01:13:57] <Ethanol-fueled> watchlist!

[01:13:23] <SirFinkus> http://www.amazon.com
[01:12:44] <SirFinkus> but that whole scene doesn't appeal to me
[01:12:43] <Deucalion> how?
[01:12:34] <SirFinkus> you can be reasonably sure really
[01:12:16] <Deucalion> That is the problem... know idea what the hell you are ingesting with that kind of party drug.
[01:12:15] <takyon> hence the quotes
[01:12:10] <SirFinkus> well, there are tests
[01:12:03] <takyon> "nobody" knows what they are taking when they take MDMA
[01:11:48] <SirFinkus> I'd consider MDMA, but half that shit isn't MDMA
[01:11:47] <Ethanol-fueled> I've seen it, takyon.
[01:11:40] <takyon> not so sure about MDMA
[01:11:24] <SirFinkus> we all have expiration dates
[01:11:23] <Ethanol-fueled> Deucalion, hard drugs are terrifying. Even MDMA. Seen way too many people become emotionless husks after constant use.
[01:10:42] <Ethanol-fueled> takyon, and a lot of people just got the short-end of the genetic shit-stick.
[01:10:36] <Deucalion> Never done hard drugs either. The addiction potential scares the shit out of me.
[01:10:18] <takyon> if you have to worry about epigenetics you already have an expiration date and can consider yourself a walking corpse
[01:09:52] <Ethanol-fueled> Yeah, plus I don't smoke cigs or use hard drugs.
[01:09:33] <Deucalion> Plenty of time
[01:09:25] <Deucalion> You're still young :P

[01:06:46] <Deucalion> I don't do conflict at all. It's a waste of energy.
[01:05:58] <Ethanol-fueled> Smart strategy, Deucalion. Conflict gets old.
[01:05:35] <Ethanol-fueled> Even if my degree is recognized as a shit degree, I can get around that. I doubt she will be able to do the same. Especially in a technical interview.
[01:05:30] <Deucalion> I spent to long fighting the game before I saw through it. Not again :D
[01:04:40] <Ethanol-fueled> Yup, that's right.
[01:04:23] <Deucalion> We all hate the game, but we still have to play it.
[01:03:41] <Ethanol-fueled> SirFinkus, I have real-world experience, contacts, and even awards in the high-tech industry.
[01:03:31] <Deucalion> Sadly that can be a strategy for success EF
[01:03:21] <SirFinkus> if she graduates, she has the same degree as you do Ethanol-fueled
[01:03:09] <Ethanol-fueled> The chauveniest pig in me guesses that she was one of those gurls who tossed back her hair, batted her eyelashes, and then copied all her homework.
[01:02:54] <Deucalion> SirFinkus, likewise. I've seen too much in big corps. So much noise, no action.
[01:02:37] <Ethanol-fueled> Exactly, Deucalion...if she were smart she would have at least offered to write documentation or at least do fucking something, anything.
[01:02:23] <SirFinkus> depends on how good she is at riding on efforts
[01:02:06] <SirFinkus> idk Deucalion, I've seen some shit
[01:01:50] <crutchy> :D
[01:01:49] <crutchy> aye focker!
[01:01:44] <crutchy> btw
[01:01:39] <crutchy> ew
[01:01:37] <Deucalion> Won't go far with that attitude of riding on everyone else's efforts. Get found out in the end and it will be a train wreck for her.
[01:01:33] <Ethanol-fueled> crutchy, she's a good-looking woman...but one of those flakey "homeopathic" new-agey types.
[01:01:23] <crutchy> pic or it didn't happen yo :p
[01:01:09] <crutchy> *her* ass?
[01:01:02] * SirFinkus remembers a semester long programming project in high school with a partner that didn't contributes a single loc
[01:00:58] <Ethanol-fueled> Had to light a fire under her ass because I'm sure the next class will also involve groupwork, so she had to be put on notice.
[01:00:23] <SirFinkus> been there
[01:00:08] <Ethanol-fueled> I told her to pitch in, the only time she would have had to have pitched in this entire semester, or ask to be removed from the group. She chose the latter.
[00:59:28] <Deucalion> You're just mad because she laughed at your need for the extender :P
[00:59:25] <Ethanol-fueled> that's fine when the assignments are small and easy enough, but they're gettin' bigger and harder.
[00:58:44] <Ethanol-fueled> Deucalion, I had her in three previous groups. She's skatin' and skatin' hard.
[00:58:26] <Deucalion> Sounds a little brutal. <ay have been more diplomatic to work out where her strengths lie and then utilise them.
[00:57:42] <Ethanol-fueled> Actually, I asked her to remove herself so she could save face.
[00:57:25] <Ethanol-fueled> I forced out a nonperforming groupmate.
[00:57:14] <Deucalion> same old mundane shite ~shrug~
[00:56:55] <Ethanol-fueled> deucalion, it's pretty annoying. How goes it with you?
[00:56:36] <Deucalion> hi EF - how goes the studying?
[00:54:59] <Ethanol-fueled> still do all the other core shit though.
[00:54:38] <Ethanol-fueled> Not only bachelor but the program I'm in doesn't require linear algebra.
[00:54:19] <Yog-Yogguth> btw gtg brb
[00:54:07] <Yog-Yogguth> by lite you mean bachelor?
[00:53:55] <Yog-Yogguth> :D
[00:53:49] <Ethanol-fueled> aw hell no. I'd rather be poor than be stuck in school that long.
[00:53:29] <Yog-Yogguth> I said that or electrical engineering or something like that
[00:53:16] <Yog-Yogguth> ah ok I got that sort of right then
[00:53:04] <Ethanol-fueled> Computer Science (Lite)
[00:52:54] <Yog-Yogguth> someone wondered what you were studying and I couldn't remember for sure
[00:52:32] <Ethanol-fueled> had to force a groupmate out.
[00:52:24] <Ethanol-fueled> Doing groupwork for school cuz university are liberal scum.

Can even automate the update of the profile based on the log output. Shame it is just an Ubuntu thing really. That said Apparmoring something like Firefox is somewhat of a patience testing adventure.

[00:09:28] <TheMightyBuzzard> take a van, some kids, and a dog. tv has taught me that is the quickest way to solve a mystery.

[00:08:25] <Deucalion> China is huge... why are they congregating so densely that they need 50 or even 20 lane roads? :/
[00:07:25] <chromas> according to the tfa, it's not the 50 lanes, but the 20-lane checkpoint that's the issue

[00:06:24] <crutchy> usually only for a few km's around the intersection of multiple freeways
[00:05:43] <crutchy> i think the worse we have in melbourne are maybe 7 or 8 lanes each way or summin
