[00:51:50] * SpallsHurgenson gets down tonight
[01:16:26] <JamesNZ> Eww.
[01:17:29] <SpallsHurgenson> no appreciation for KC and the sunshine band, eh?
[01:18:04] <JamesNZ> Never even heard of them :)
[01:18:10] <chromas> Or getting down with your pants off
[01:18:13] <SpallsHurgenson> <sigh>
[01:18:16] <SpallsHurgenson> GET OFF MY LAWN!
[01:35:21] -!- fliptop has quit [Quit: ciao]
[01:54:56] <SpallsHurgenson> dare I ask what ridiculous thing Trump said today?
[01:55:40] <JamesNZ> No you don't.
[01:56:03] <SpallsHurgenson> heh, there's actually a website dedicated to that. http://wstddtst.tumblr.com
[01:56:04] <NetCraft> ^ 03What Stupid Thing Did Donald Trump Say Today?
[01:56:07] <SpallsHurgenson> I love the internet :)
[01:57:42] <SpallsHurgenson> but no corresponding site for Obama! Liberal media bias, liberal media bias!!!! :)
[01:58:47] <takyon> obama doesn't talk every day
[01:58:57] <takyon> since he doesn't need to be elected or reelected
[02:00:13] <takyon> that tumblr doesn't look very updated
[02:00:18] <takyon> august post not far from the top
[02:00:34] <SpallsHurgenson> no, sadly not. Perhaps this means Trump no longer says anything stupid? :)
[02:02:34] <takyon> not exactly
[02:02:54] <takyon> he advocated the jack bauer "hit em in the family" approach to fighting terrorism yesterday
[02:03:11] <SpallsHurgenson> perhaps the guy updating the website went mad from reading all those trumpisms and had to be institutionalized, hence the lack of updates?
[02:03:25] <crutchy> so the federal reserve has saved face... for now
[02:03:41] <crutchy> apparently they're targeting 2% by 2018
[02:06:08] <SpallsHurgenson> oh good, that'll give 'em two years to change their minds :)
[02:06:27] <crutchy> guess that means interest will only be about $400 million
[02:06:36] <crutchy> wow gee that's nothing
[02:06:44] <crutchy> :/
[02:06:59] <crutchy> (assuming debt of $20 trillion by then)
[02:08:01] <SpallsHurgenson> pocket change; Trump can ask Bill Gates for the cash when he asks him to turn off the Internet :)
[02:08:08] <crutchy> lol
[02:08:59] <crutchy> i guess it kinda is small change compared to social security and defense
[02:09:36] <crutchy> although 2% is nothing to really be proud of. i guess that's all they figure the economy can afford
[02:09:41] <SpallsHurgenson> especially since we apparently need to build up our military :)
[02:10:21] <crutchy> true. spending more than the next 10 biggest military nations combined just isn't enough to be safe in this day and age :p
[02:10:33] <crutchy> or is it 8? can't remember
[02:11:00] <SpallsHurgenson> as much as China, Russia, UK, Japan, France, Saudi Arabia, India, Germany, Italy and Brazil combined
[02:11:46] <SpallsHurgenson> (sorry, that was 2012)
[02:12:13] <SpallsHurgenson> in 2015, its only China, Russia, Saudi Arabia, France, the UK, India and Germany. sorry Japan and Italy :) :) :)

[03:13:01] <cmn32480> me neither....
[03:14:55] <SpallsHurgenson> is there any proof the scientists didn't CAUSE the nova just to prove the accuracy of their claims? :)
[03:15:36] <Bytram> nah, that would be GM that caused the Nova. ;)
[03:15:41] <cmn32480> make somethign happen that you predicted to enhance your street cred?
[03:16:05] <cmn32480> I Ford-got about that

[03:16:20] <Bytram> <groan>
[03:17:46] <cmn32480> you missed like 20 mintes of fish puns earlier
[03:18:06] <SpallsHurgenson> I don't think I missed it at all :)
[03:18:21] <cmn32480> SirFinkus was the winner
[03:18:44] <cmn32480> I believe it was "I hope this is over schooner rather than later"
[03:19:58] * SpallsHurgenson whimpers
[03:20:41] <Bytram> bet it was fin-tastic
[03:21:44] <SpallsHurgenson> nononononono

[03:22:24] <cmn32480> everyone was witing for the next one with baited breath
[03:22:50] <cmn32480> it was puns on a scale not seen in a long time
[03:23:28] * SpallsHurgenson curls up into a ball

[03:30:06] <cmn32480> giggle
[03:31:52] <JamesNZ> Fishing for puns are we?
[03:32:07] <cmn32480> we did 20 minutes this morning
[03:32:17] <cmn32480> it was awful
[03:32:28] <chromas> I trout it was that bad
[03:33:05] <cmn32480> it was net that bad... but we certainly enjoyed it
[03:33:07] <JamesNZ> Bet it was carp.
[03:33:18] <cmn32480> nah... more like crappie
[03:33:44] <cmn32480> but we had a whale of a time
[03:33:50] <JamesNZ> Ah, I sea.

[03:36:43] <JamesNZ> Nah, it's a good way to fillet time.
[03:37:13] <SpallsHurgenson> <drool>
[03:37:18] <cmn32480> lemme axis this question
[03:37:47] <cmn32480> are we all patton on this driving spalls away?
[03:39:11] <JamesNZ> Away where? In the church hill?
[03:40:08] <cmn32480> if we aren;t careful he's gonna spit fire
[03:41:07] <JamesNZ> I'll doodle bugs, that'll calm him down!
[03:42:00] <cmn32480> tanks very much for all the fun guys
[03:43:27] <JamesNZ> The pleasure was all mein.
[03:43:45] <cmn32480> kampf you keep that to yourself?
[03:44:12] * cmn32480 high fives JamesNZ for the assist
[03:44:26] <Bytram> adolphin would be smarter

[03:45:14] * Bytram notes that adolphin works on both pun-lines
[03:45:57] <cmn32480> methinks that if we keep this up we might be Berlin the candle at both ends
[03:46:39] <Bytram> what was wick-ed
[03:47:02] <Bytram> s/what/that/
[03:47:02] <sedctl> <Bytram> that was wick-ed

[03:47:27] <JamesNZ> I think SpallsHurgenson has melted.
[03:47:39] <cmn32480> likely gone up in flames
[03:47:44] * SpallsHurgenson gets a crazed look in his eyes and starts giggling maniacally
[03:48:07] <cmn32480> SpallsHurgenson is now ready to go deal wiht his relatives for Christmas
[03:48:35] <SpallsHurgenson> hee-hee-hee!
[03:49:13] <takyon> hey cmn32480
[03:49:19] <cmn32480> yeah takyon
[03:49:19] <JamesNZ> Looks like his sense of humor is still flickering.
[03:49:34] <takyon> you should watch the Santa Claus Conquers the Martians mst3k with your family
[03:49:55] <cmn32480> maybe
[03:50:03] <cmn32480> but driving spalls nuts with puns is more fun
[03:50:09] <cmn32480> and somebody has to post stories
[03:50:28] <takyon> i mean at some point over the coming 3 weeks
[03:50:31] <chromas> cmn32480: s/po.*/drive Spall' nuts/
[03:50:31] <sedctl> <chromas> <cmn32480> and somebody has to drive Spall' nuts
[03:52:25] <SpallsHurgenson> A pirate walks into a bar with a steering wheel on his pants, a peg leg and a parrot on his shoulder. The bartender says, "Hey, you've got a steering wheel on your pants." The pirate says, "Arrrr, I know. It's driving me nuts."
[03:53:02] <chromas> Why does he have a peg leg on his shoulder
[03:53:14] <takyon> why does he have pants
[03:53:15] <chromas> (also lol)
[03:53:17] <Bytram> he's a little off-balance?
[03:53:41] <Bytram> and with that lame attempt, it is time for me to bid you all adieu
[03:53:55] <JamesNZ> Sinking under the pressure Bytram? :P

[04:10:29] <chromas> Is the Arthur source available?
[04:10:51] <cmn32480> not from me
[04:11:17] <cmn32480> that's janrinok's project.
[04:11:36] <cmn32480> and I'm not sure he is in a place to be asked about it right now
[04:12:24] <takyon> um
[04:12:25] <takyon> lol
[04:12:46] <takyon> I just submitted a story using that article
[04:13:00] <cmn32480> oh
[04:13:03] <cmn32480> well never mind then
[04:13:28] <cmn32480> i have deleted exec's sub
[04:14:13] <cmn32480> I especially like the line about Apple
[04:14:14] <chromas> I was just thinking, exec could run the article text extractor part of it for better ~submissions
[04:14:25] <cmn32480> There's very little new in this. Coffee maker Keurig tried the same thing, until a crash in sales caused the company to reverse its policy. Apple also deliberately borks standards to make a few extra bucks, and continues to do so in light of its customers' apparent willingness to carry on paying the Cupertino idiot delightfully-integrated experience tax.
[04:14:48] <cmn32480> interesting
[04:15:18] <cmn32480> it'd have to be converted from Python(?)
[04:15:40] <cmn32480> I think it is in python

[04:22:39] * cmn32480 also doens't know what arthur's code looks like currently
[04:22:48] * cmn32480 thinks he has a pretty old version
[04:23:27] <cmn32480> chromas - maybe add in the bit from MrPlow that gives the nick of the submitter
[04:24:38] <chromas> You probably need to call a specific routine, since you don't need all the feed reading and other parts of it for manual submission
[04:25:50] * cmn32480 isn't a programmer
[04:26:20] * chromas could help but doesn't haz access to the source

[12:32:54] <nick> someone forgot a major part of playing the game, was not admitting it.
[12:39:39] <nick> when you don't even pretend to be an entrepreneur working towards 'job creation' and 'innovation' and just brag about maximising profits with no ethical boundaries, you're making the more veteran players in the game look bad
[12:41:12] <nick> same as the guy who sold the fake 'bomb detectors' - you have to put some effort into appearances, investment and baffle with bullshit, not just go for the direct scam.

[23:52:49] <Gravis> SirFinkus: it looks like "Worms: Cluebat Edition" ;)
[23:53:45] <SirFinkus> it's a shooty platformy rougelike thing
[23:54:20] <Gravis> SirFinkus: so umm... like Worms?
[23:54:47] <SirFinkus> no, no terrain destruction or adversarial multiplayer
[23:55:48] <Gravis> so Worms against only AI in an invulnerable setting?
[23:57:09] <SirFinkus> no, you fight monsters and platform through, killing monsters gives you money and exp which you can use on chests and stuff to get items
[23:57:30] <SirFinkus> the longer you play, the harder it gets, so you have to balance collecting items and exp with moving through the levels quickly
[23:57:31] <Gravis> so not turn based
[23:57:35] <SirFinkus> no
[23:59:09] <SirFinkus> you can also get artifacts that alter the game rules
[23:59:18] <SirFinkus> and play as different characters
