[01:43:40] <TickTock> strap a camera on 'em, and a bomb... they can get anywhere!
[01:43:57] <cmn32480> that was already a thing in the 70's.

[01:50:31] <BadCoderFinger> Hi guys
[01:50:33] <TickTock> I don't really object to the idea of licensing drone users... I just think the maximum weight for an unlicensed drone (250g) is too low
[01:51:18] <BadCoderFinger> I think the goal might be to register everything that can carry a camera.
[01:52:08] <cmn32480> 250g is not a lot
[01:52:30] <cmn32480> that is only a little over a half pound
[01:53:27] <BadCoderFinger> Yep.
[01:53:55] <cmn32480> I think I'm not really sure about it
[01:53:55] <BadCoderFinger> If you're going to spy on everyone, it's really important to know who else might be spying.
[01:54:18] <cmn32480> they going to requre the guys who fly real model airplanes to register tehir stuff as well?
[01:54:25] <TickTock> wait, are you saying the story they are using - that it is to protect us from ter'rist-controlled IEDs - isn't accurate? That they are perhaps more concerned with citizens being able to spy on government and corporate wrongdoings?!?
[01:54:27] <cmn32480> or just the quadcopter type stuff
[01:54:59] <cmn32480> um... duh TickTock?
[01:55:02] <BadCoderFinger> TickTock: I know, I'm shocked too!
[01:55:19] * TickTock hands cmn2480 a "whoosh"
[01:55:40] * cmn32480 takes his woosh and cherishes it
[01:55:59] <cmn32480> My first Woosh!
[01:56:01] <takyon> really it just means they will need to come up with a new reason once insect drone spy tech reaches the level of the consumer
[01:56:07] TickTock is now known as SpallsHurgenson
[01:56:20] <SpallsHurgenson> nano-drones!
[01:56:45] <cmn32480> I think Takyon is 100% rigth
[01:57:28] <cmn32480> what you will see is a ton of these thigns flying off the shelf before they get the apratus in place to get them registered
[01:57:35] <takyon> FBI has done some spying with aircraft, mobile IMSI catchers, etc. but fly-sized drones will be a big deal
[01:57:42] <cmn32480> and people will claim grandfather status
[01:58:01] <takyon> I don't think you get grandfather status from what I read
[01:58:14] <SpallsHurgenson> the panopticon is coming
[01:58:20] <takyon> "Starting Dec. 21, all operators of small drones — devices weighing between 0.55 pounds and 55 pounds — need to go online and register their names and addresses with the Federal Aviation Administration."
[01:58:44] <cmn32480> it'll be like the gun registration laws in NY and CT
[01:58:49] <cmn32480> nobody is gonna do it
[01:59:14] <takyon> there's a couple of problems with that
[01:59:22] <SpallsHurgenson> every kid in the US is getting a "drone" this year for xmas; you think any of them (or their parents) know about this law?
[01:59:32] <takyon> 1. drones will be tracked in some cases.
[02:00:02] <takyon> 2. if you get detained with your drone, this will give the cops an excuse to check for your registration. if you don't have it, you'll be screwed
[02:00:40] <BadCoderFinger> Point 2 is pretty much "the panopticon doesn't want competition."
[02:00:43] <takyon> the enforcement will be selective enough
[02:00:58] <SpallsHurgenson> which is more likely the real point of the law: make sure you have enough laws so everybody is always guilty of something :)
[02:01:02] <takyon> anybody doing 1st Amendment audits using drones better have their registration completed...
[02:01:31] <BadCoderFinger> SpallsHurgenson: We're already here.
[02:01:51] <takyon> a 1st Amendment audit is where you film an FBI building, police station, courthouse, etc. and then upload what happens to YouTube
[02:01:54] <SpallsHurgenson> but no, the real reason is the one I started with:
[02:02:10] <SpallsHurgenson> "something must be done. This is something therefore we should do it"
[02:02:52] <SpallsHurgenson> its not about whether its a good law or a bad law or if it would benefit the people or government... it is activity that makes the politicians appear responsive
[02:03:23] <cmn32480> it isn't a law
[02:03:37] <cmn32480> it is a regulation by the FAA
[02:03:56] <cmn32480> which is how the federal gov't gets around congress
[02:04:09] <SpallsHurgenson> you say tomato, I say Solanum lycopersicum :)
[02:04:52] <cmn32480> have some gov't agency (FAA, EPA, etc,) make a regulation with the force of law and criminal or civil penalties and you get around that pesky Congress
[02:05:57] <SpallsHurgenson> that sort of thing is only acceptable when it is used to enforce things I support! :)
[02:06:39] <cmn32480> that is precisely how Congress puts it
[02:07:14] <SpallsHurgenson> see, I'd make a great politician! Elect me as Emperor of the World!

[02:09:25] <SpallsHurgenson> please, you're gonna miss Obama. He's so wonderfully ineffective.
[02:09:49] <SpallsHurgenson> god forbid we get an effective leader; shit gets done... and with government, that's the last thing you want to happen!
[02:11:00] <cmn32480> an effective leader would be a nice change of pace in this country
[02:11:19] <SpallsHurgenson> no, no it wouldn't
[02:11:20] <cmn32480> maybe somebody that whips Congress into shape and gets all of them to work together
[02:11:28] <SpallsHurgenson> oh god no
[02:11:48] <cmn32480> instead of all the petty bickering and crap
[02:12:08] <cmn32480> the only way that the gov't in DC gets fixed is a convention of the states
[02:12:08] <SpallsHurgenson> the US government was designed to be stuck in deadlock :)
[02:12:10] <takyon> looking at the FAQ on the FAA website makes it look worse and worse

[02:12:39] <NetCraft> ^ 03UAS Registration Q
[02:13:14] <cmn32480> Q: What is the penalty for failing to register?
[02:13:14] <cmn32480> A: Failure to register an aircraft may result in regulatory and criminal sanctions. The FAA may assess civil penalties up to $27,500. Criminal penalties include fines of up to $250,000 and/or imprisonment for up to three years
[02:13:23] <SpallsHurgenson> see? see what happens when government gets it in its head to do something... and actually DOES?
[02:14:49] <takyon> i wonder what the penalty for exceeding 55 lbs without filling out the special paperwork is
[02:15:01] <BadCoderFinger> You know how you catch your kid smoking, so you make him keep smoking until he gets sick? That's what Trump for president would be like.

[02:16:11] <SpallsHurgenson> possibly as component as well :)

[02:16:56] <cmn32480> I also think that he is gonna rewrite the rules so that he gets to profit significantly when he gets out of office, if elected
[02:17:14] <cmn32480> crutchy is the Aussie
[02:17:21] <cmn32480> JamesNZ is a kiwi
[02:17:52] <takyon> Trump doesn't need to rewrite any rules to profit massively from having a Presidential legacy.
[02:18:08] <takyon> haha, can you imagine what a Trump Presidential Library would look like?
[02:18:13] <takyon> a casino in vegas!
[02:18:16] <takyon> with books!
[02:18:21] <cmn32480> or Atlantic City
[02:18:37] <takyon> hasn't he pulled out of there
[02:21:05] <SpallsHurgenson> Trump is a pure demagogue. And a massive egoist. His platform is whatever gets him noticed; he has no real ideas behind the words.
[02:21:32] <cmn32480> I don't think so, but it is possible
[02:21:42] <cmn32480> Spalls, I agree completly
[02:21:56] <cmn32480> but he has been VERY disruptive to the Republican process
[02:22:00] <cmn32480> which is good
[02:22:44] <cmn32480> his presence sucked the air right out of Jeb Bush, which will likely prevent Bush III and the starting of the Third War of Iraq
[02:23:22] <SpallsHurgenson> I don't really see Jeb going down the same road as dad and lil' bro
[02:23:53] <SpallsHurgenson> he's probably the most sane of the republicrook candidates (scary, I know)
[02:24:13] <cmn32480> Vote HIllary!
[02:24:14] <SpallsHurgenson> god knows he's a hell of a lot saner than some of the demonrats too
[02:24:27] <cmn32480> I tend to agree
[02:24:32] <SpallsHurgenson> sure, if you want Iraq 3
[02:24:47] <cmn32480> they are all crooks
[02:24:56] <cmn32480> but I think that is especially true of Hillary
[02:25:08] <SpallsHurgenson> except for me. Vote Spalls for World Emperor.
[02:25:14] <cmn32480> I don't think she could tell the truth if her life depended on it

[02:33:01] <takyon> it can't come soon enough
[02:33:27] <cmn32480> at that point most of them will realize they have no chance whatsoever and drop out, pointing their supporters to the next crazy guy in line

[02:35:45] <SpallsHurgenson> Trump has no support of the Republicans, which means that even if he did get into office, he'd be completely ineffective. Which almost makes me want to vote for him :) :) :)
[02:36:06] <cmn32480> he'd have a pen and a phone too
[02:36:25] <cmn32480> look what the current HNIC has done with that
[02:36:40] <cmn32480> (Head Nutcase In Charge)
[02:37:01] <SpallsHurgenson> I think his "I'll call Bill Gates and ask him to turn off the Internet" comment reflects exactly how he thinks things would work if he got to office: he believes he'd have supreme authority and people would jump just because he said so
[02:37:24] <cmn32480> the more I think about it, the More I think Douglas Adams is correct.
[02:37:45] <SpallsHurgenson> Eddie's in the time-space continuum?
[02:37:48] <cmn32480> that si what he's used to. All he has ever known. Why should he think it would change?
[02:38:24] <cmn32480> something like "Under no circumstances should someone that can get himself elected to office be allowed to hold that office"
[02:38:50] <SpallsHurgenson> I don't think Adams came up with that
[02:39:08] <cmn32480> it was in one of the HHGTTG books
[02:39:32] <cmn32480> was probably said by Zaphod Beeblebrox
[02:39:37] <cmn32480> or about him
[02:39:51] <SpallsHurgenson> yes, but I don't think the idea originated with Dougie
[02:40:11] <cmn32480> prolly not
[02:40:16] <cmn32480> but that is where I heard it

[04:39:36] <paulej72> mysql ndb is multi master basically
[04:40:42] <chromas> So if blackouts and brownouts are bad, does that mean we want white power?
[04:40:44] * Deucalion nods as though he understands.... I see.... maybe a slave or two would help.... I have no idea.
[04:42:02] <paulej72> neon was to be rebooted, but helium should have been able to take the load itself, instead the ndbd puked on helium when neon shutdown
[04:42:57] <Deucalion> Fuckity - guess this is one way to test resilience
[04:45:00] <Deucalion> paulej72, I appreciate the effort keeping things standing, I know you have other stuff going on right now so I doubly appreciate it.
[04:49:07] <Deucalion> chromas, what we need are some white outs - oh wait that'd be like a snow / ice storm thing that would in turn cause brown and black outs. Perhaps we just call them what they are to avoid any offence - a snow storm caused voltage sags on the grid and complete power loss in places.
[04:51:02] <Deucalion> I really don't know how voltage is regulated on a power grid either.. man the longer I spend around here the more stupid I feel. Some random will now pop up and explain power grid stabilisation and I will turn into a drivelling moron.
[04:52:30] * Ethanol-fueled understands power grids.
[04:52:45] <Ethanol-fueled> But it's really complicated.
[04:58:55] <Deucalion> I vaguely know that you don't bring a genny on line until you match the three phases in a typical distribution network, bad things ensue if shit is out of phase when brought on line - like giant gennys breaking free and going all godzilla in the place, bits of people everywhere. I wish I could live forever to learn everything about everything, curse my frail form :(
[05:01:26] <Ethanol-fueled> Shit, I didn't even know power grids used 3-phase
[05:02:02] <Ethanol-fueled> Figured only aircraft and other specialty things did.
[05:03:09] <Subsentient> Ethanol-fueled: hey bud
[05:03:17] <Ethanol-fueled> sup subsentient.
[05:05:01] <Deucalion> I don't know if that is typical worldwide, but it is a thing here. The power distribution in the street is 3 phase. Domestic places get one 240V phase, some heavy commercial places get 720V on 3 phases delivered for their equipment. I guess in the US you halve those voltages for 110 / 220 / 330 volts. ~shrug~ The more I read on it the less I think I know.
[05:06:17] <paulej72> 208 V across phases in 3 phase. with 120V to neutral
[05:06:37] <Deucalion> Apologies - homogenised EU domestic power is 230V not 240V - but in the UK it is still mostly 240V+. Whatever, it hurts.
[05:07:20] <paulej72> domestic power is double wound transformer so that you get two phases 180 degs appart that are 120V with 240V between them
[05:09:11] <paulej72> but industral will not get higher voltages so that they can do the transforming internally to do 480/277 for use in motors and ligting cirucits
[05:09:25] <Ethanol-fueled> That's what I figured, here with domestic power you have hot, neutral, and ground.
[05:09:53] <Ethanol-fueled> (black, white, green)
[05:10:02] <Ethanol-fueled> or bare in place of gren
[05:11:20] <Deucalion> paulej72, we seem to run 3 phase here 120 deg apart for local distribution. I'm kinda sketchy on what "neutral" even means in an AC circuit. Live, Line, Neutral, Earth... definitions seem to change depending on exactly what kind of circuit you have to hand and what it is carrying.
[05:12:09] <paulej72> neutral is usually tied to earth but can float at a different voltage depending on the setup.
[05:13:26] <paulej72> but neutral is the return path for normal 1 phase circuits
[05:14:56] <Deucalion> Yeh - we have setups here where earth is a ground rod and the neutral goes back to the supplier - danger there due to potential differences, and in other places the earth is tied to neutral. I am not a sparkie and this shit is dangerous in dumb hands, sparks should be paid more :)
[05:15:31] <Deucalion> One of those situations where I know enough to know I do not know enough.
[05:20:52] <paulej72> in most applications neutral here in the US is tied to earth at the main panel
[05:22:16] <paulej72> the trick is when you need to create a neutral when you do not have one. Delta 3 phase has no neutral, but you can use transformers to create one. This neutral could float at a differnt potentail
[05:28:45] <Ethanol-fueled> spaks should be paid more?
[05:29:03] <Ethanol-fueled> Linemen here are paid $40 bucks an hour, and they make mad overtime at $60 and hour.
[05:29:31] <Ethanol-fueled> Journeymen electricians make pretty decent money.
[05:30:59] <Ethanol-fueled> Probably because of unions, but I still find it amazing that people with more complicated electronics training make less...sometimes WAY less, than somebody who pulls cables and packs monkey-shit all day.
[05:32:15] <Deucalion> Most domestic applications here I believe earth is tied to neutral at the consumer panel or supplier head. Earth rods seem to be used for more remote or agricultural properties which sparks seem to be a little wary of as there are floating potentials between neutral and earth, I think that setup has a distinct cert you need to get to be qualified to work on. As for the linesmen, they work live on all kinds of shit up to High Voltage live fixes.
[05:32:16] <Deucalion> .. those guys deal with arcing and plasma in the air and all kindsa BS - I respect them but I am sooo not going to get up in that stuff.
[05:34:48] <Ethanol-fueled> (hahahah, comment was modded up)
[05:35:18] <Ethanol-fueled> It was like Hobbes (Calvin and hobbes) saying that imaginary numbers are "eleventeen" and "thirty-twelve"
[05:35:58] <Deucalion> Ethanol-fueled, are you suggesting electricians be paid less? Not talking your domestic installer, but the guys that are dicking around with 11KV or 22KV lines and breakers while they are live? They have to know their shit to stay alive in that profession.
[05:36:27] <Ethanol-fueled> Absolutely not. I'm pro-union.
[05:36:45] <Ethanol-fueled> That work is not only dangerous, but a pain in the ass. But yeah, I'm pro-union.
[05:38:17] <Ethanol-fueled> Of course underwater welders, toxic-environment divers, radio tower-climbers should be compensated handsomely.
[05:38:36] <Ethanol-fueled> Everybody should, actually.
[05:38:50] <Deucalion> What's a Union, Thatcher smashed ours about 20 years ago. What's left are vampires. My point was neither pro or anti union, just that people who know what the fuck they are doing should be well rewarded as they keep the lights on.... literally in this case.
[05:39:50] <Ethanol-fueled> Yeah, that's a good point. Niche electronics techs don't keep the lights on or the sewers flowing.
[05:40:10] <Ethanol-fueled> They take a pay cut to work on more rad technology, haha.
[05:42:19] <Deucalion> Never going to be an end to drains that need hosing out. If you want a job for life - mortician, funeral director - those aren't going out of style any time soon. Kinda depressing though.
[05:42:48] <paulej72> but they usually run in families
[05:42:59] <Ethanol-fueled> The Addams families?
[05:43:42] <Ethanol-fueled> Dated a woman who was in school for that, she gave up on it when a kid came in with the eyes open.
[05:44:06] <paulej72> that is what they make glue for
[05:44:13] <Ethanol-fueled> The eyes open when dead thing always bugged the shit out of me too, especially when they shot Murphy in the head before he became Robocop.
[05:44:33] <Ethanol-fueled> Wrenches the gut seeing that as a kid.
[05:45:09] <Ethanol-fueled> pauley, but in the movies they always have a person just wipe the eyes shut and then they stay shut.
[05:45:14] <Ethanol-fueled> like "wax on, wax off"
[05:46:04] <paulej72> yeah but thoes are not long dead bodies usually and don't need much to fix them
[05:46:22] <Deucalion> Morbid bastards. I guess it takes a certain type to pump fluids into a corpse and dress it up for presentation etc. I get it's a necessary job in society, but wow - as a chosen path in life.... here let me surround myself with corpses that need beautifying right here... that should be cheery. My lord that must be a horrible existence. Apologies to any funeral types in the audience... but why?
[05:47:06] <Ethanol-fueled> That's a good question.
[05:47:16] <swiss> one of my friends wants to be a mortician
[05:47:26] <Ethanol-fueled> Gallows humor seems to prevalent in any profession even remotely medically-related though.
[05:47:40] <swiss> she had a lot of reasons explaining it, which ended with "also, i don't really like dealing with people"
[05:47:41] <Ethanol-fueled> A coping mechanism.
[05:47:55] <Ethanol-fueled> hahah swiss
[05:48:26] <Deucalion> We all got to make a buck in life, so why not if you have the stomach for it.
[05:48:50] <Ethanol-fueled> It makes sense. It's dependable work that not a lot of people have the stomach for.
[05:50:10] <Deucalion> My family are medical, there is a degree of gallows humour I guess, but mostly it's more pragmatic.... you get old or diseased and die. What ya going to do. ~shrug~
[05:50:39] <swiss> my lack of morals would totally allow me to work as a mortician
[05:50:48] <swiss> however, being a corporate sellout was much more profitable
[05:51:01] <Deucalion> You have no soul
[05:51:03] <Ethanol-fueled> swiss, how would you warm the bodies up before you committed necrophilia?
[05:51:35] <swiss> Ethanol-fueled: slowly on a warm slab, I would think
[05:51:41] <swiss> for even heat throughout
[05:52:36] <Ethanol-fueled> "hmm, these bodies all came in lying straight, but their legs ended up open with rigor. Any idea how this happened?"
[05:52:58] <Ethanol-fueled> "And there's semen in all of the urns we're supposed to give back to the families."
[05:53:00] <swiss> I would easily come up with a new medical phenomenon
[05:53:20] <swiss> that has to do with the climate conditions in our reigon causing certain muscles to contract, and open the legs

[05:59:21] <Ethanol-fueled> Oh, that was you. You changed the subject.
[06:00:37] <Ethanol-fueled> Then I added "sex" to that subject, and it became necrophilia.

[06:18:38] <Deucalion> what guy?
[06:19:08] <Ethanol-fueled> The guy I knew who manslaughtered (Okay, it wasn't murder) and got off with nothing.
[06:19:54] <Ethanol-fueled> I don't think Whites have an advantage when it comes down to fucking up in the legal system though.

[06:21:42] <Deucalion> All I know is I do not want to get caught up in the US legal system in any kinda way, at all, ever, seems that shit would bankrupt me in the first meeting.
[06:22:39] <Ethanol-fueled> You have to keep in mind that, if you judged our contry by the media, that the media is engaged in shameless race-baiting.
[06:23:31] <Ethanol-fueled> For example, even the local stations would say, "racism is bad....oooh, now look at this evil white cop shoot an unarmed Black man buying a sandwhich sixteen times and killing him!"
[06:25:27] <Ethanol-fueled> Basically, everytime something like this happens (and from a media perspective it's happened a lot fairly recently) it's a method of not only getting views and generating buzz but distracting Americans from the real problems. The real issues.
[06:26:13] <Ethanol-fueled> nevermind that the politicians are fucking you and people are getting shot, why don't you all just forget about all that and fight amongst yourselves a little longer?

[06:39:56] <Ethanol-fueled> We stole a can of stealth paint. We have a specially-designed shroud which should minimize the radar cross-section of the prop.
[06:40:18] <Deucalion> Perhaps we could chuck molotovs from cockpit... WWI style... I feel your plan maybe a little shaky here... dunno... seems a bot sketchy right now. Wouldn't a Camel bi-plane be a better choice?

[10:02:19] <chromas> just the tip
[10:02:51] <crutchy> is that kinda like dalvik for android, or is it like pretending to have desktop infrastructure but not really?
[10:05:29] <chromas> it's totally different. dalvik runs java
[10:06:12] <crutchy> hmm. good point
[10:06:15] <chromas> "infrastructure" probably means a bunch of clients that connect to a server that hosts all their desktops
[10:06:28] <crutchy> if pi could run java it would have a big fat ass dragging behind it

[15:55:45] <SirFinkus> all the schools in LA are shut down
[16:02:17] <SirFinkus> I'm curious how often these threats actually play out, it seems to me that if someone wanted to kill a bunch of a kids they'd just do it without warning anybody
[16:05:54] <AndyTheAbsurd> If you really wanted to cause terror, you'd do a bunch of investigation first
[16:06:20] <AndyTheAbsurd> make a threat against the schools to get the schools evacuated, then blow up the place where they're evacuating the kids to
[16:06:51] <SirFinkus> the kids are being/have already been sent home
[16:07:17] <SirFinkus> oh shit, this is die hard 2
[16:07:21] <AndyTheAbsurd> So blow up the buses.
[16:07:24] <SirFinkus> I bet a bank is being robbed right now
[16:07:27] <AndyTheAbsurd> There's a lot of reall,y *really* effective things that terrorists could do to hurt the US that they're not doing.
[16:07:46] <SirFinkus> busses are already back in the bus barns
[16:07:55] <SirFinkus> I'm telling you, die hard with a vengeance
[16:08:21] <AndyTheAbsurd> I'm just saying - I think terrorists' plans tend to be poorly thought out.

[21:54:16] <SirFinkus> I've been fired by shrinks
[21:54:36] <Ethanol-fueled> Self-loathing is one manifestation of the result of having been raised in a fundamentally religious family.
[21:55:59] <Ethanol-fueled> Nothing is ever good enough for them. The possibility of being good enough is something to strive for, and occasionally happens, and is considered a success by those who are outside your family.
[21:56:34] <Ethanol-fueled> However, the ultimate goal, approval of your family, remains unattainable and so they don't see the fruits of your labor.
[21:56:36] <SirFinkus> yeah, pretty much
[21:56:44] <SirFinkus> my dad's cool now though
[21:57:07] <Ethanol-fueled> But, as a therapist, that's because they're assholes and any fantasies about their painful and torturous deaths are justified.
[21:57:20] <SirFinkus> lol
[21:58:13] <Ethanol-fueled> They WILL die alone and angry.
[21:58:51] <SirFinkus> I stopped going to them because I began to see through their shit
[21:59:17] <SirFinkus> the therapists i mean
[21:59:30] <Ethanol-fueled> therapists are professional friends.
[22:00:15] <Ethanol-fueled> But I can help you...because I am a proven asshole
[22:00:22] <SirFinkus> it basically ended up with me engaging in some kind of debate with them
[22:01:06] <SirFinkus> they learn tricks of social intimidation and use them in a calculated way to pry shit out of you
[22:01:19] <SirFinkus> which is their job I guess, but once I learned the tricks I began to resent it
[22:02:19] <Ethanol-fueled> We therapists call it "peeling the onion"
[22:02:19] <SirFinkus> I think I'm actually pretty healthy mentally
[22:03:05] <Ethanol-fueled> and you are right, a lot of people who are disgusted at the injustice in the world need a break from handling it.
[22:03:57] <Ethanol-fueled> A lot of people who are healthy mentally cannot reconcile the evil in the world, and especially now.

[22:37:40] <Ethanol-fueled> I can psychoanalyze people though. I psychoanalyzed you, swiss, almost a year ago.
[22:37:56] <swiss> oh really? Aside from being a corporate sellout, what did you come up with?
[22:39:08] <Ethanol-fueled> Same thing as fink. You got your job through connections and had been born into a a security-conscious family.
[22:39:39] <SirFinkus> reminds me of a radio stunt about whether it would be easier for a black guy or a nazi to get a cab
[22:40:25] <Ethanol-fueled> Fink, around here, Black guys run the cabs.
[22:40:38] <SirFinkus> it was pretty douchy, but I liked the concept

[22:41:09] <SirFinkus> I've never taken a cab in my life
[22:41:17] <swiss> Ethanol-fueled: wrong about the connections bit
[22:41:29] <swiss> i had opportunities for jobs with connections
[22:41:30] <Ethanol-fueled> Swiss and I had a private discussion about why Bradley Manning was a douche.
[22:42:11] <swiss> however, because of my feelings of not being accepted if i took a job through connections I chose to take a job where I had to prove myself.
[22:42:22] <Ethanol-fueled> bullshit swiss.
[22:42:44] <chromas> Bradley Manning. Is that the one who became Bruce Jenner?
[22:43:02] <swiss> Ethanol-fueled: Instead, i won a plethora of security competitions
[22:43:23] <swiss> of which I was mentored by another student, not any family connections.
[22:43:51] <Ethanol-fueled> my daddy knew a jew who worked for Goldman-Sachs. I got a job with Goldman-Sachs but it wasn't because my dad knew a Jew who was in deep with them.
