[23:59:31] <Ethanol-fueled> And their intervention created the Arab-Afghans.
[23:59:24] <swiss> if we weren't on shitty terms with the USSR... would it have been so bad to let them control the zones?
[23:59:09] <swiss> honestly, the USSR really controlled the middle east well
[23:58:56] <Ethanol-fueled> Godspeed, Putin!
[23:58:51] <Ethanol-fueled> Middle-Easterners have decent food, a rich cultural history...but not lately. It's time to take out the trash!
[23:58:27] <crutchy> bomb first, ask err.... don't ask questions
[23:57:59] <crutchy> russia is working on that as we speak :D
[23:57:47] <systemd> ^ 03Cock.li e-mail server seized by German authorities, admin announces | Ars Technica
[23:57:46] <SirFinkus> http://arstechnica.com
[23:57:44] <Ethanol-fueled> The Middle East.
[23:57:39] <Ethanol-fueled> Maybe NATO and the Russians, and AMerica, should all steamroll the real problem in the world:
[23:57:26] <crutchy> that would require sense on nato's part though :p
[23:57:15] <crutchy> true
[23:57:11] <Ethanol-fueled> Maybe NATO shouldn't push, then.
[23:56:59] <crutchy> they do, but when nato pushes, moscow is gunna steamroll
[23:56:53] <Ethanol-fueled> They're not the ones to be afraid of.
[23:56:50] <SirFinkus> cock.li got raided
[23:56:38] <Ethanol-fueled> Pfffft, Russia want to cooperate and not fight.
[23:56:03] <crutchy> *too
[23:55:57] <crutchy> norway and sweden are also just a little to close to moscow for my liking
[23:55:17] <Ethanol-fueled> The weather sucks, but at least we can have snowball fights and drinks near a fireplace.
[23:55:14] <crutchy> fuck norway. i hate cold
[23:54:58] <SirFinkus> Oligarchy needs to buy me dinner first
[23:54:40] <Ethanol-fueled> crutchy, I'm moving to Norway or Switzerland, or Iceland, when I graduate.
[23:54:15] <crutchy> you will swallow your oligarchy masquerading as socialism! and enjoy it!
[23:53:59] <Ethanol-fueled> But to be fair a doctor has to give those the go-ahead to print out what I've asked for, where I'm at.
[23:53:32] <Ethanol-fueled> That's the one I ask to print out all of my test results.
[23:53:12] <Ethanol-fueled> yeah, that's true, crutchy.
[23:52:55] <Ethanol-fueled> I've noticed since Obamacare kicked in they care a lot less...though they just may have contempt for their patients, as a retail worker has with customers.
[23:52:40] <crutchy> especially the receptionist
[23:52:15] <Ethanol-fueled> In a medical setting you're dealing with people who are M.D.s or Nurses. that's not trivial, both of those had to pass a lot of classes involving logic.
[23:51:54] <chromas> ~oppress crutchy
[23:51:38] <crutchy> #keyboardlivesmatter
[23:51:09] <crutchy> government keyboards don't allow simultaneous keypresses. that would be oppression of keyboards
[23:50:53] <Ethanol-fueled> chromas, that sounds like a lot.
[23:50:36] <chromas> Ethanol-fueled: do you even know how many muscles it takes to hold Win and L at the same time?
[23:50:28] <SirFinkus> it's the "surely it wouldn't be that easy/obvious" strategy
[23:50:20] <crutchy> 'nah nobody would be dumb enough to use hunter2 as a password'
[23:50:03] <crutchy> security by obviouty
[23:50:02] <Ethanol-fueled> locking a workstation is hard.
[23:49:33] <crutchy> if its the only fake rock in the room nobody will know
[23:49:33] <Ethanol-fueled> disabling autoplay or USB ports or any active directory shit is hard.
[23:49:15] <chromas> or under a fake rock
[23:49:13] <crutchy> user profiles are hard :p
[23:48:56] <Ethanol-fueled> sheesh, at least keep it on a stickynote under the mat.
[23:48:46] <chromas> change the password :D
[23:48:29] <Ethanol-fueled> HAHAHAHAAHAH
[23:48:25] <SirFinkus> or I could have just used the password written on the stickynote stuck to the monitor
[23:48:11] <crutchy> well only future with the keylogger. existing with the usb stick
[23:48:09] <chromas> 'upgrade' it to win10
[23:47:48] <crutchy> install a keylogger. then you get existing and future records :D
[23:46:51] <Ethanol-fueled> They're subject to HIPAA. That's just sloppy.
[23:46:42] <SirFinkus> I had 15 minutes, and they always knock before they come in
[23:46:37] <Ethanol-fueled> Hahahah, well, fuck 'em.
[23:46:20] <SirFinkus> what's to test? they're pwned
[23:45:57] <Ethanol-fueled> hahah, sweet. Did you pen-test?
[23:45:40] <SirFinkus> which I had brought a usb key
[23:45:28] <SirFinkus> inspires confidence in their data security
[23:45:16] <SirFinkus> oh, just got back from the doctor. They left me alone in the room with a windows 7 machine with an admin account logged in and my medical records up
[23:41:41] <Ethanol-fueled> Seems you get more rain in those parts.
[23:41:17] <SirFinkus> this shit isn't even sticking
[23:41:11] <SirFinkus> rarely get snow around here
[23:40:57] <Ethanol-fueled> Probably because I was a kid who was around a lot of snow. Lived in Flagstaff AZ and with family ties to Mid-upper Washington
[23:40:17] <nick> ...
[23:39:45] <Ethanol-fueled> Wish we could get a blizzard once in awhile.
[23:39:36] <Ethanol-fueled> Nice.
[23:38:30] <SirFinkus> fucking blizzard outside
[23:38:26] <SirFinkus> yeah, ok
[23:38:10] <exec> 10Olympia, WA, USA - currently 37°F / 3°C, light rain showers, wind W at 9 mph, humidity 94% - Monday scattered showers (37°F:40°F / 3°C:4°C), Tuesday rain (37°F:43°F / 3°C:6°C), Wednesday thunderstorm (34°F:42°F / 1°C:6°C), Thursday cloudy (31°F:40°F / -1°C:4°C)
[23:38:09] <SirFinkus> ~weather
[23:32:53] -!- chromie has quit [Quit: Leaving]
[23:32:28] <Ethanol-fueled> like a cowardly eye-eye sleeping on a tree branch.
[23:32:11] <Ethanol-fueled> "everything's a threat"
[23:32:03] <Ethanol-fueled> Very paranoid and animalistic.
[23:31:58] -!- systemd [systemd!~confirms@0::1] has joined #Soylent
[23:30:36] -!- sedctl [sedctl!~sedctl@0::1] has joined #Soylent
[23:29:52] <Ethanol-fueled> Of course.
[23:29:39] <SirFinkus> the space program was a thin justification to develop guidance systems, rockets, and spy satellites
[23:29:23] <Ethanol-fueled> Sounds productive.
[23:28:56] <SirFinkus> we basically got to the point where we had the tech to nuke any point on earth from any other point on earth and stopped
[23:27:59] <Ethanol-fueled> even though we need RUSSIAN boosters to send shit into space.
[23:27:54] <SirFinkus> NASA has been doing a pretty good job with their limited resources, that Curiosity rover project is awesome
[23:27:47] <Ethanol-fueled> I don't even think it's lip service...I just think it's a thinky-veiled Space-race reference.
[23:27:10] <SirFinkus> it's just lip service
[23:27:05] <SirFinkus> presidential candidates tend to dangle the "GO BACK IN SPACE" thing in their campaigns, but then sign laws that cut NASA's budget
[23:26:55] <Ethanol-fueled> Sadly, that isn't yet true.
[23:26:49] <Ethanol-fueled> If we were investing in space travel rather than petty squabbles we would have the cred to consider ourselves "above the other animals."
[23:26:15] <Ethanol-fueled> Bush II proposed it, probably as a joke, but still, a rad idea.
[23:26:15] <SirFinkus> absolutely
[23:25:58] <Ethanol-fueled> Shit, a moon base would be awesome.
[23:25:00] -!- chromas [chromas!~chromas@0::1] has joined #Soylent
[23:24:59] <SirFinkus> guess it was the newt, could have sworn it was a democrat
[23:24:28] <Ethanol-fueled> That candidate was speaking ironically, and as a result of their charming joke, they secured the hipster vote.
[23:24:26] <SirFinkus> Newt Gingrich
[23:24:00] <SirFinkus> it was a democrat
[23:23:54] <SirFinkus> forgot which candidate proposed it
[23:23:48] <Ethanol-fueled> which is good, if they weren't such vapid assholes who damage unique pockets of real culture.
[23:23:46] <SirFinkus> remember way back in 2008 at when people thought that trying to have a moon base was a wacky idea?
[23:23:27] <Ethanol-fueled> No, he won't, because hipsters bring in money,
[23:23:16] * Ethanol-fueled kneads dick
[23:23:00] <SirFinkus> and prove me wrong
[23:22:55] <SirFinkus> just watch, Trump is going to say he wants to deport all hipsters any minute now
[23:22:49] <Ethanol-fueled> SirFinkus, of course not. Because hipsters have money.
[23:22:34] <Ethanol-fueled> Motherfuckers holding up 10-deep lines over the wrong kind of organic lettuce and shit.
[23:22:25] <SirFinkus> I don't think "ban all hipsters" is a viable political platform when you're running for city council
[23:22:14] <Ethanol-fueled> or "People in this neighborhood are rude assholes, aren't they?"
[23:21:58] <Ethanol-fueled> For example, when getting coffee, I'll tell the (amused staff who like me), "yeah, I'll just have some coffee, none of that hipster shit"
[23:21:35] <SirFinkus> it isn't really a political issue
[23:21:16] <Ethanol-fueled> I'll antagonize people in public if I think they're transplant hipsters.
[23:20:48] <Ethanol-fueled> I'm strictly anti. I will go to bars and talk shit to the owner if I hear Mumford and Sons on the jukebox.
[23:20:43] <SirFinkus> it's like saying you're pro or anti demographics changes
[23:20:23] <SirFinkus> I'm not pro or anti gentrification
[23:20:10] <chromie> Ethanol-fueled: s/u/o/
[23:19:54] * Ethanol-fueled ducks
[23:19:52] <Ethanol-fueled> and a roo-focker
[23:19:48] <chromie> pouches with wifi
[23:19:41] <chromie> he's a roo-rider
[23:19:30] <Ethanol-fueled> crutch-dawg, are you drive-to-work scum like I am?
[23:19:16] <Bender> karma - gentrification: -1
[23:19:16] <Ethanol-fueled> gentrification--
[23:19:07] <crutchy> also, i hate waiting at bus stops :p
[23:19:06] <SirFinkus> well, that's what the rock throwers said it was, but it seemed to be more about gentrification
[23:18:36] <Ethanol-fueled> THe issue was that the Google busses used the public bus-stops but didn't have to pay some fee, than they started paying it.
[23:18:30] <crutchy> kills the concept of flexitime
[23:18:13] <Ethanol-fueled> Fink, they are probably still doing it.
[23:18:04] <crutchy> i wouldn't have used it
[23:18:00] <Ethanol-fueled> SirFinkus, and I fully support anti-gentrification efforts.
[23:17:40] <SirFinkus> employees loved it, busses had wifi and everything
[23:17:27] <crutchy> yeah maybe
[23:17:25] <crutchy> oh
[23:17:20] <crutchy> nobody used it or some shit. can't remember
[23:17:18] <SirFinkus> are they still doing that? I thought they stopped because of people bitching about "gentrification" and throwing rocks at them
[23:16:50] <crutchy> i think google tried to make a free bus service for its employees maybe?
[23:16:41] <SirFinkus> now if we could stop spending billions of dollars on that retarded alaska way viaduct tunnel...
[23:16:37] <Ethanol-fueled> that is changing, though, but won't be implemented for another couple years. And from what I've heard it's only gonna be one bus corridor along the 15 freeway.
[23:16:08] <Ethanol-fueled> Because there's only like one way to get from South to North and vise-versa, and it's the coaster train.
[23:15:59] <SirFinkus> seattle isn't bad, they're expanding the light rail too, which will be awesome
[23:15:35] <crutchy> from (admittedly vague) memory
[23:15:30] <Ethanol-fueled> San Diego south of Clairmont Mesa Boulevard is decent, but if you want to go past that, forget about it. It's an extra 3-4 hours out of your day to go what would be a half-hour drive.
[23:15:25] <crutchy> chromie, nah i think it was something to do with buses or something
[23:15:09] <crutchy> public transport here is pretty shit too
[23:15:04] <chromie> crutchy: good idea! turn containers into apartments and stack 'em
[23:14:41] <Ethanol-fueled> L.A. is kinda bad too but you can get anywhere in roughly the same amount of time by proportion.
[23:14:23] <crutchy> apparently google tried something, but i guess it flopped for $reason
[23:14:06] <SirFinkus> http://1.bp.blogspot.com is kind of the tl:dr
[23:13:56] <swiss> you can thank Ford/GM/Tire company for LA and SD public transi
[23:13:37] <Ethanol-fueled> One of the biggest gripes I have about San Diego is that the public transporation sucks.
[23:13:32] <SirFinkus> basically each building type is assigned a nuisance level, and you can build the building in a zone if the nuisance level is low enough
[23:13:22] <Bender> [SoylentNews] - NASA's Tests Partially 3D-Printed Rocket Engine - http://sylnt.us - whip-us-up-a-rocketship
[23:12:45] <crutchy> yeah cos federal bureaucrats are awesome at deciding how cities should be
[23:12:40] <Bender> karma - sirfinkus: 20
[23:12:40] <Ethanol-fueled> SirFinkus++
[23:12:39] <SirFinkus> shared light commercial and residential
[23:12:37] <Ethanol-fueled> Nice.
[23:12:24] <crutchy> ergh
[23:12:18] <swiss> Ethanol-fueled: basically, what i'm saying is that capitalism is what drives the housing costs. The reason for low income housing is to include a workforce for the low income jobs, rather than pay them high income wages
[23:11:48] <SirFinkus> http://urbankchoze.blogspot.com
[23:11:47] <SirFinkus> they just make more sense
[23:11:24] <Ethanol-fueled> How are they awesome, Fink?
[23:11:15] <SirFinkus> I'll take Japan's awesome zoning laws though
[23:11:02] <Ethanol-fueled> They want the united states to have the population density of Tokyo and the quality of life of Delhi slums.
[23:10:48] <swiss> also, we have a shit ton of homeless
[23:10:47] <Ethanol-fueled> chromie, don't give them ideas. they're doing it already.
[23:10:43] <crutchy> you mean japanese
[23:10:42] <swiss> we have overfilled low income housing, that isn't following building code
[23:10:40] <crutchy> lol
[23:10:34] <chromie> we need Futurama-robot-style apartment buildings. Pack 'em into closets!
[23:10:28] <crutchy> Ethanol-fueled, its full of democrats
[23:10:28] <Ethanol-fueled> Probbaly at least double that.
[23:10:09] <Ethanol-fueled> swiss, L.A. is expensive, and yet, they have way more than half a million illegals living there.
[23:09:46] <swiss> and then you'll have people saying they have the RIGHT to live in that area
[23:09:35] <Ethanol-fueled> for that matter, everything is corrupt.
[23:09:35] <swiss> thing is, unless you start making it cost more to live in the area, you'll have too many people trying to live in too little area
[23:09:23] <crutchy> problem with using force is that even if it seems like its for a good cause, that force will be corrupted/bought/abused
[23:08:54] <Ethanol-fueled> I'm talking only cities. There's plenty of rural area in California people can live.
[23:08:39] <swiss> Ethanol-fueled: then people will start renting out their housing that they already have for more than you're charging for rent
[23:08:30] <crutchy> what if people wanna get out of cities?
[23:08:17] <crutchy> you gunna force people to live where they are? lol nazi much?
[23:08:13] <Ethanol-fueled> swiss, you say, "fuck off, we're full," and then put them in a queue.
[23:07:53] <Ethanol-fueled> Unless they used legal methods of seeking immigration.
[23:07:49] <swiss> Ethanol-fueled: how do determine who is allowed to live there then? And what do you tell the people who want to live there after its full?
[23:07:43] <Ethanol-fueled> Then they'd have to wait in a queue. All non-citizens, of course, would be expelled.
[23:07:23] <Ethanol-fueled> swiss, I forgot to mention that there should be a limit, where no more people are allowed to move.
[23:06:41] <Ethanol-fueled> sup Fink. Yeah, vacation. Just went on a fat run and surf, trying to get an early bedtime.
[23:06:38] <crutchy> hmm yeah? weren't drinking last night
[23:06:37] <SirFinkus> the crazy guy with all the signs put up a bunch of flags, looks like the UN
[23:06:33] <swiss> what happens when low-income housing is FULL?
[23:06:25] <swiss> Ethanol-fueled: but then what happens when MORE PEOPLE want to live there?
[23:06:16] <SirFinkus> you're in early Ethanol-fueled
[23:06:01] <crutchy> even in australia property prices are too high, but we have a low interest rate too
[23:05:22] <Ethanol-fueled> The kingmakers will change their tune once it's in THEIR backyard.
[23:05:18] -!- Bruh has quit [Quit: I'm not going there to die. I'm going there to see if I was ever alive]
[23:05:12] <crutchy> government guaranteed home loans drove your property prices through the roof
[23:05:00] <Ethanol-fueled> Which is why we need more low-income housing in traditionally high-income areas.
[23:04:35] <Ethanol-fueled> Of course that's not gonna happen because greedy property developers have a lot of political clout.
[23:04:18] <Ethanol-fueled> swiss, you put a stop to building new housing and strictly enforce building code, meaning, a maximum of x amount of people may live every y square feet.
[23:04:09] <crutchy> but minimum wage makes it illegal
[23:03:47] <crutchy> i know i was
[23:03:42] <crutchy> many kids would be happy to work for free for a bit, just to get some skills and start working up the chain
[23:03:37] <swiss> more than you can fit into that area?
[23:03:30] <swiss> Ethanol-fueled: what do you do when more of the population wants to live in once place?\
[23:03:21] <Ethanol-fueled> But greedy people gonna greed and fuck things up for the rest of us.
[23:03:06] <Ethanol-fueled> I believe in affordable housing.
[23:03:06] <crutchy> makes it harder for kids to climb the ladder
[23:02:55] <crutchy> mimum wage only hurts the poor
[23:02:49] <swiss> you don't need more than $10/hr as a waitress in utah
[23:02:43] <Ethanol-fueled> I believe in a minimum wage. I also believe in protectionism.
[23:02:35] <swiss> crutchy: the "we need more than $10 minimum wage throughout the country" definitely is
[23:02:16] <crutchy> the whole 'livable wage' is communist bullshit
[23:02:13] <swiss> because illegals will NEVER be treated the same as citizens (that's why we don't make them citizens)
[23:01:53] <swiss> the shitty middleground stance hurts EVERYONE
[23:01:50] <crutchy> if there are people willing to pick fruit for $7/hr, then that is what its worth
[23:01:45] <swiss> that's the point to really think about
[23:01:40] <swiss> Ethanol-fueled: it hurts them too
[23:01:28] <Ethanol-fueled> and since California doesn't adequately punish illegals, more and more enter hoping to get a piece of the gravy-train.
[23:01:23] <crutchy> it just makes it harder for starters to get work
[23:01:14] <swiss> that's BS in my opinion
[23:01:13] <crutchy> the minimum wage is stupid
[23:01:01] <swiss> and, if you're arrested as an illegal immigrant in most california cities, we won't deport you when your sentence is up
[23:01:00] <Ethanol-fueled> bullshit, crutchy.
[23:00:42] <crutchy> Ethanol-fueled, probably in a farming community that is true, but in cities its different
[23:00:38] <swiss> in california, you can get a license if you're an illegal immigrant
[23:00:37] <Ethanol-fueled> They won't do it for seven bucks an hour, but they will be throwing themselves at your feet to do it for fifteen.
[23:00:07] <Ethanol-fueled> Especially coming from a farming community I always hear the same old shit -- Americans would never pick lettuce. Bullshit. They would be more than happy to pick lettuce or shovel shit for even barely livable wages.
[23:00:02] <crutchy> yeah that too
[22:59:53] <swiss> immigration would be a non-issue if the government would say "Illegal is illegal, and here's the legal method"
[22:59:41] <crutchy> they're good people for the most part
[22:59:34] <crutchy> immigrants work hard
[22:59:09] <Ethanol-fueled> I don't mind them either, when they're beneficial to the whole population rather than just corporate profits.
[22:59:09] <crutchy> immigration would be a non-issue if governments stopped with the easy handouts
[22:58:59] <swiss> I'm not mad about immigrants in america, i'm mad about our shitty halfway stance on them
[22:58:38] <crutchy> tbh i don't mind immigrants
[22:58:31] <swiss> governor moonbeam is too crazy for me
[22:58:24] <Ethanol-fueled> Fuck off, we're full.
[22:58:18] <Ethanol-fueled> agreed, crutchy.
[22:58:08] <crutchy> Ethanol-fueled, you need aussie immigrant policy... shoot first don't bother asking questions :p
[22:58:07] <swiss> his wife was a Kennedy
[22:57:58] <swiss> he was part of the Kennedy family
[22:57:49] <Ethanol-fueled> swiss, for all of his superficial actors' charm, he did have some good advisors and did us a lot of good.
[22:57:29] <Ethanol-fueled> Property values and rents will skyrocket in the big cities.
[22:57:24] <swiss> Ethanol-fueled: i liked the Governator
[22:57:18] <Ethanol-fueled> the floodgates for more H1-B's and other visas will decimate California's standard of living.
[22:57:15] <crutchy> haha yeah
[22:57:10] <swiss> it's not like the career politicians aren't in a business's pocket
[22:56:54] <swiss> yeah, but at least we know their allegiance
[22:56:53] <Ethanol-fueled> swiss, no matter who wins, california is going to get worse.
[22:56:29] <crutchy> businesspeople always look after their own first
[22:56:21] <swiss> I am wondering how california is going to fare under the next president
[22:56:12] <crutchy> swiss, you might get even more jobs-for-the-boys programs in that case
[22:56:06] <Ethanol-fueled> swiss, take me with you. I'm white and can shoot machine guns.
[22:55:49] <Ethanol-fueled> They went broke because they punished the bankers who fucked up. They cut off their noses to spite their face, and I can respect that.
[22:55:46] <swiss> i've always got switzerland to bail to if things get too crazy here
[22:55:28] <crutchy> can't remembeer the details, but they went broke for a bit
[22:55:21] <Ethanol-fueled> Well, Iceland did found NATO.
[22:55:16] <crutchy> read up about iceland's banking system
[22:55:11] <swiss> also, if Trump wins it'll spark a lot more big business people (non-career-politicians) to run for office
[22:55:06] <Ethanol-fueled> howso?
[22:54:57] <crutchy> iceland fukked up already
[22:54:52] <crutchy> lol
[22:54:47] <Ethanol-fueled> I'm thinkin' getting my degree and bailing to Iceland.
[22:54:33] <Ethanol-fueled> I'm ultra-cynical about the American political process. No matter who wins, it's gonna be the same old shit. The question is how much Americans can tolerate before they openly revolt, and how effective the mechanism to pacify and clamp down on them before they do, will be.
[22:54:26] <swiss> Sanders may be a good president in another climate, but I can't see him getting anything more through congress than Obama did
[22:54:25] <crutchy> nice to think that would be possible though
[22:54:02] <crutchy> nah they'll never blame themselves
[22:53:34] <swiss> I'm waiting for Trump to win, congress to get yelled at, congress to impeach Trump, and the entire government to get revamped as they realize how fucked up they've made it
[22:53:30] <crutchy> if you're not careful
[22:53:20] <crutchy> its gunna end up rekkin you guys
[22:53:11] <crutchy> the debt issue is a big one
[22:53:09] <Ethanol-fueled> many of whom are probably agents-provocateurs
[22:52:59] <swiss> and had a "my way or the highway" approach, rather than a "Get the most we can out of this time"
[22:52:58] <crutchy> yeah prolly that too
[22:52:49] <Ethanol-fueled> They say that the tea party started out honest and moderate but was co-opted by extremists, much like the Occupy-style movements were.
[22:52:44] <swiss> may have *started* closer to that, but it definitely prevented a lot of movement in congress
[22:52:30] <crutchy> they just seem extreme because neocons are not conservative at all
[22:52:17] <crutchy> the tea party is probably closer to the original republican party
[22:52:01] <crutchy> the tea party movement started with ron paul, and was an effort to get rid of the neocons that infected the party
[22:51:56] <Ethanol-fueled> It's hilarious how the Zerohedge commenters call him "Bath-house Barry"
[22:51:30] <swiss> especially the republican party with the tea party movement
[22:51:21] <swiss> I think both parties betrayed their voters
[22:51:20] <Ethanol-fueled> he might at this point be like, fuck it. His hair is grey, he's probably doped up like fuck on Xanax to cope with the stress
[22:50:59] <crutchy> :P
[22:50:57] <crutchy> lol
[22:50:56] <crutchy> his advisors just say 'yeah sign that you bitch. you know its gunna be ok'
[22:50:55] <swiss> whether or not he does, he probably feels powerless with the current political climate
[22:50:35] <crutchy> problem is obama prolly has nfi what's in the bills he signs into law either
[22:50:15] <Ethanol-fueled> I do agree with a lot of what he did or tried to do.
[22:50:08] <swiss> sort of. He was trying to play clean up, and let congress get away from him in the process
[22:49:50] <Ethanol-fueled> Yeah, I agree with that, but he made the mistake Bush II made - dicking around in foreign affairs.
[22:49:33] <swiss> and over another congress, could have been a good president
[22:49:27] <crutchy> obama has flip flopped a bit
[22:49:07] <swiss> imo, Obama was a decent moderate, put into the presidency while the parties turned to being extremists
[22:48:22] <Ethanol-fueled> Gotcha,
[22:48:17] <Ethanol-fueled> The brits have begun using the term "nonviolent extremists" to demonize "people who don't agree with us"
[22:48:01] <swiss> Ethanol-fueled: i'm saying extremist as in "at the extreme end of their party's thinking"
[22:47:41] <swiss> the fact that Trump is a moderate compared to the other candidates should be a wake up call to the other candidates
[22:47:36] <Ethanol-fueled> swiss, you're free to do that, but I find that to be a slippery-slope kinda thing, like calling people angry at government "terrorists" or people who oppose countries' foreign policies as "racists"
[22:47:25] <crutchy> like the drug war
[22:47:20] <swiss> rand paul and trump are the two most moderate candidates in the GOP
[22:47:11] <crutchy> he's working with democrats on social issues
[22:47:03] <swiss> there are, but they're fewer and fewer
[22:47:01] <crutchy> rand paul is probably on the more moderate scale
[22:46:52] <crutchy> there are some middle ground areas
[22:46:35] <swiss> I'm not saying either party is wrong or right here. I'm saying both parties are eliminating the middle
[22:46:26] <crutchy> the media doesn't help either
[22:46:19] <crutchy> very polarized
[22:46:14] <crutchy> one extreme or the other
[22:46:01] <swiss> Ethanol-fueled: i'll absolutely use extremist when it comes to open socialism (bernie) vs the tea party
[22:45:56] <Ethanol-fueled> swiss, I agree that is a huge problem with our government.
[22:45:51] <crutchy> :(
[22:45:48] <crutchy> true
[22:45:36] <swiss> so instead of having all of the minds of congress working together towards putting out the most effective bill, you have half the minds of congress trying to shut down a mediocre bill, while the other half try to protect it from being shut down
[22:45:35] <crutchy> with thousands of pages that nobody reads
[22:45:33] <Ethanol-fueled> swiss, I wouldn't be so quick to toss around the term "extremist" but you are correct about them being wrong because they are stubborn, rather than seek to compromise.
[22:45:26] <crutchy> everything's gotta be pushed through at a moment's notice
[22:45:00] <crutchy> there does seem to be fuck all debate in congress lately
[22:44:50] <swiss> because they took an extremist stance
[22:44:40] <swiss> whether or not you're in favor of obamacare, the republican/tea party chose to fully oppose the bill, rather than shape it to fit their needs as well as the democratic party's
[22:44:35] <Bruh> true dat ^
[22:44:27] <crutchy> i wouldn't compromise on constitutional matters
[22:44:07] <Bruh> whats up
[22:44:05] <swiss> For example, lets take obamacare
[22:44:01] <crutchy> swiss, depends on the compromise
[22:43:54] <Ethanol-fueled> "They stay in their little ponds, leaking whatever truth suits them into the growing cesspool of society at large"
[22:43:47] <swiss> we need a vote of no confidence, followed by an influx of moderates who understand compromise
[22:43:38] <crutchy> lol g'day Bruh
[22:43:29] <Bruh> crutchy, yo
[22:43:23] <Ethanol-fueled> Yes, echo chambers. Metal Gear Solid 2 was right.
[22:43:22] <swiss> rather than being seen as "extremist"

[22:43:02] <Ethanol-fueled> swiss, in the sense that people would rather bitch on Facebook then be a part of meaningful change, yes.
[22:43:02] <GGCrazy> yo
[22:43:00] <swiss> everyone now feels that they have more support for their crazy ideas because the internet lets them have a voice

[22:34:40] <cmn32480> as a general rule that is correct

[21:57:20] <crutchy> i'm just going off what i've seen in videos

[11:59:04] <nick> arma2 is only technically playable anyway, so it doesn't feel much different
[11:56:51] <TheMightyBuzzard> haven't tried it yet. the gaming is slightly worse than winders as a general rule but technically playable,
[11:54:18] <nick> tried it the other day, was quite impressed streaming arma2 over wifi to a linux laptop
[11:53:38] <nick> steam's streaming works quite well on linux actually
[11:52:31] <TheMightyBuzzard> you know, times like this are what vidya games was made for. kill time enjoyably but with a handy pause button so you can drop them immediately.
[11:52:26] <nick> it's more new contracts i want to get moving before the holidays, but i can see if they have caught others by surprise too and stuff said last weeks falls apart this week
[11:50:44] <TheMightyBuzzard> they won't be any happier for you arriving 15m earlier really. they're still going to be crabby that something broke this close to the holidays.
[11:50:16] <nick> it's all close enough really, i travel a bit anyway
[11:49:30] <TheMightyBuzzard> s'right. all you brits look alike to me.
[11:49:14] <nick> i'm the idiot who lives in london
[11:48:56] <nick> janrinok is the one over there
[11:48:40] <nick> this is true to a point i guess, my own fault comes from trying to keep too many people happy
[11:47:56] <TheMightyBuzzard> that's right, was it juggs or janrinok who was in frenchieville? i never can remember.
[11:47:12] <TheMightyBuzzard> this sounds like a problem that would be theirs rather than yours though
[11:46:41] <nick> if the phone rings i'd have to go somewhere, and anywhere nice to go is further away from where i'd be called to
[11:46:13] <nick> phone is mobile, but logistics are more of an issue
[11:45:57] <TheMightyBuzzard> mmm
[11:45:42] <nick> not in france, but 'tis only a train ride away.
[11:44:08] <TheMightyBuzzard> or is the phone a land line?
[11:43:51] <TheMightyBuzzard> there's plenty of water in france, ain't there? you could go fishing as well.
[11:43:31] <nick> could take a nap, but even more blah when the phone does ring then
[11:41:58] <TheMightyBuzzard> yeah, that sounds a bit raw deal-ish
[11:40:20] <nick> better than my plan of staring at my phone but also hoping it doesn't ring
[11:40:18] <TheMightyBuzzard> stuck on the laptop as usual so coding anything serious is out.
[11:40:05] <nick> sounds like a good deal
[11:38:47] <TheMightyBuzzard> hrm... think i may go fishing today. otherwise ima be wicked bored.
[11:37:20] <nick> and they go on that way as they join the backlog of a hundred or so others
[11:36:54] <nick> most i get are ex-library books, many have never been read it appears
[11:36:16] <nick> thanks for that...
[11:35:56] <chromas> used bathroom readers
[11:35:02] <nick> as i buy mostly used books
[11:35:01] <TheMightyBuzzard> look into uncle john's bathroom readers. they're nearly immediately useful. same day anyway.
[11:34:58] <nick> power and hand tools are always more enticing than anything else, but books are usually cheaper to acquire
[11:33:59] <nick> books are about the only thing i buy that isn't immediately useful
[11:33:37] <TheMightyBuzzard> when ebooks was called text files
[11:33:24] <TheMightyBuzzard> ahh, i been doing it off and on since the bbs days
[11:32:37] <nick> can't do the ebook thing, except for technical reference
[11:31:16] <TheMightyBuzzard> i'm mostly on ebooks nowadays cept for coding books. easier to store.
[11:30:42] <nick> i have already been gifted a couple books, so i'm pretty content with that
[11:30:39] <MrPlow> Today: Abundant sunshine. High 57F. Winds NW at 10 to 15 mph. Tomorrow: Sun and a few passing clouds. High 67F. Winds S at 10 to 20 mph.

[11:30:31] <TheMightyBuzzard> doh
[11:30:28] <MrPlow> Today: Considerable cloudiness with occasional rain showers. High 64F. Winds S at 15 to 25 mph. Chance of rain 70%. Tomorrow: A mix of clouds and sun in the morning followed by cloudy skies during the afternoon. A stray shower or thunderstorm is possible. High 68F. Winds SE at 5 to 10 mph.

[11:29:44] <nick> fancy booze, food, if not then it's books probably

[11:29:04] <TheMightyBuzzard> yurp. poor kids mostly got toys.
[11:28:39] <nick> nice, useful things
[11:28:11] <TheMightyBuzzard> cold weather fishing clothes. i'm calling it a good haul.

[05:11:51] <Ethanol-fueled> "learned helplessness"
[05:11:25] <Ethanol-fueled> Their own government can kill them and they still won't do a goddamn thing about it.
[05:10:55] <Ethanol-fueled> HAHAHAHHA
[05:10:53] <Ethanol-fueled> They're all about "multiculturalism"
[05:10:10] <crutchy> now they're just part of the keynesian subsidy mechanism
[05:09:30] <crutchy> the EU has pretty much choked german manufacturing out of wiggle room
[05:09:11] <Ethanol-fueled> not really. "context" in that context is essentially a measure of "wiggle room"
[05:08:49] <crutchy> though germans are at a disadvantage
[05:08:30] <crutchy> ooh that's a tough one
[05:08:16] <Ethanol-fueled> Low and high context is essentially German vs. Chinese business culture.
[05:08:01] <swiss> i have no idea what he meant by that, but good on him for understanding it!
[05:07:54] <Ethanol-fueled> Bed is a good option.
[05:07:32] * Deucalion notes the pure wisdom emanating hereabouts and thinks bed would be the better option. Low and High context cultures? Really? Perhaps Contrast... but even then... I have no idea what that is about.
[05:05:28] <Ethanol-fueled> But between ******, bring it on.
[05:05:13] <Ethanol-fueled> As a method of translation between low-context and high-context cultures, sure.
[05:04:46] <Ethanol-fueled> Bullshit is the enemy of good discourse.
[05:04:06] <swiss> hue
[05:04:00] * Deucalion avoids swiss
[05:03:42] <swiss> if there's no shit that needs to get done, i'm all game for blowfests
[05:03:25] <swiss> Deucalion: blowfests feel good yo
[05:03:18] <swiss> ah, even better
[05:03:17] <Ethanol-fueled> So I guess I should feel lucky.
[05:03:07] <swiss> then all my shit will be in the place it should be
[05:03:06] <Ethanol-fueled> Well, my employer did have a holiday shutdown for the first time in their history this year.
[05:03:02] <Deucalion> I like frank discussions with genuine people, I have no time for mutual blowfests or inflated non-nonsensical ego parrying. No time for that, let's just get shit done.
[05:02:55] <swiss> I'm doin good. I cleaned out most of the house this weekend... only have one or two more shelves to go through

[04:56:35] <Ethanol-fueled> trolling part of the human condition.
[04:56:33] <crutchy> better to troll in topics you know enough to make the other guy look like an idiot, ofc
[04:56:26] <Deucalion> Personally perhaps.
[04:56:12] <crutchy> Deucalion, it can be very entertaining :)
[04:56:11] <Ethanol-fueled> trolling is a connection, a hustle.
[04:56:00] <Deucalion> Oh wait - for the lulz ~trollface~
[04:55:48] <Ethanol-fueled> trolling is never wasted energy.
[04:55:36] <chromas> maybe if coagen was there
[04:55:35] <Deucalion> Why troll? It's just wasted energy.
[04:54:30] <crutchy> or in ##php

[04:53:55] <crutchy> Deucalion, yeah i kinda suck at trolling
[04:53:23] <Ethanol-fueled> Meh. I've seen plenty of sub-optimal family situations, including those of my own family, since I popped out the vagina.
[04:53:10] <Deucalion> You have to be world's gentlest troll crutchy.
[04:52:45] <crutchy> to troll or not to troll..... troll :D
[04:52:35] <crutchy> can't help myself
[04:52:29] <crutchy> aaaaaand fails
[04:52:09] * crutchy pretends not to be a troll for once
[04:51:57] <crutchy> dammit. Deucalion has busted me
[04:51:53] <Ethanol-fueled> One of my best friends had a father who wa sent to prison. His stepdad taught him how to fix cars.
[04:51:38] <Deucalion> Well there is a difference between speaking what you truly believe and deliberately being a dick. You can re-adjust your beliefs, but if you get off on being a dick deliberately despite your experience.... that's just malice.

[04:51:15] <Ethanol-fueled> chromas, sounds about right.
[04:51:11] <crutchy> well, except for drugs. he can buy them himself
[04:51:06] <Ethanol-fueled> Every kid should have a 2-parent household.
[04:51:02] <chromas> Ethanol-fueled: yeah but you're only, waht, 98% racist?
[04:50:52] <crutchy> he's my boy
[04:50:38] <crutchy> i don't mind paying for everything he needs

[04:49:27] <Ethanol-fueled> There's being a dick and there's honesty. Honesty as opposed to being a dick makes things slightly less worse.
[04:48:54] <Deucalion> Ye gads - probably made things worse
[04:48:35] <Ethanol-fueled> I had a long discussion about this last night, with a Ph.D psychologist.
[04:47:53] <Deucalion> Truth
[04:47:52] <Ethanol-fueled> I'm racist and have learned too many of those lessons from seeing what happened to my friends.
[04:47:25] <Ethanol-fueled> I'm not fit for any commitment.
[04:46:24] <Deucalion> Yeh - AFAIUI there are financial and legal concerns that would put off anyone taking that position in the US. Heh - you lived with this woman for N years - carry the financial burden of the runaway dad of the previous sprog. Sounds like a minefield to me.
[04:46:23] <Ethanol-fueled> I have a lot of friends who had kids later.
[04:46:08] <Ethanol-fueled> I have a lot of friends who had kids early.
[04:45:13] <Ethanol-fueled> That way the kid knows why things are the way they are.
[04:44:42] <Ethanol-fueled> Hahahahah chromas, no.
[04:44:31] <chromas> that way you can have a relationship with the kid
[04:44:16] <Ethanol-fueled> I'd wait until the kid was at least 16 and probably 18.
[04:43:53] <Deucalion> EF - would you be averse to a long term relationship with a woman that already had a kid?
[04:43:46] <chromas> 200 wingwangs!
[04:43:34] <Ethanol-fueled> I hear from a Catholic friend that you can get some fat stipends from adpoting too.
[04:42:42] <Ethanol-fueled> Hmm, that is an interesting idea.
[04:42:22] <Deucalion> EF - of course they are sub-optimal for continuation, you share no genes. I see no problem with a mix of adoption and self propagation though. Adopt one, breed one, bring them up as siblings and treat them fairly. Seems sane.

[04:41:09] <chromas> crutchy: yes
[04:41:04] <Ethanol-fueled> So it's all up to me.
[04:41:01] <crutchy> chromas, including public toilets?
[04:40:42] <Ethanol-fueled> Not to mention they don't actually pass on genetics.
[04:40:40] <crutchy> i guess that's still a lot
[04:40:40] -!- SpallsHurgenson has quit [Quit: Nettalk6 - www.ntalk.de]
[04:40:35] <crutchy> apparently population will peak at about 11 billion
[04:40:34] <chromas> Another option is to peel off all the warning labels from things
[04:40:25] <Ethanol-fueled> My attitude? Adopted kids are damaged goods, and suboptimal for the continuation of family genetics.
[04:40:17] <crutchy> Ethanol-fueled, there is a TED talks that debunks the overpopulation myth
[04:39:53] <crutchy> lol
[04:39:50] <crutchy> yeah. kids want stuff
[04:39:48] <Ethanol-fueled> Deucalion, liberalism has instilled in my brilliant but misguided sister that there are already too many people in the world and that only the existing children should be taken care of.
[04:39:29] <Deucalion> It is fraught with danger though
[04:38:46] <Deucalion> Well logically, it makes sense that you can only extend your bloodline by breeding - and that is the reason to even live.
[04:38:44] <Bender> Added quote 633

[04:37:49] <Ethanol-fueled> I'll gladly knock up a bitch and continue the family bloodline, but show me the money first! Hhahahaha, fuckers!
[04:37:26] <Ethanol-fueled> My sister, Berkeley and CMU-eduated, believes that adoption is the only answer.
[04:36:57] <Ethanol-fueled> My family looks upon my sister and I nervously as if we are the only two who will continue the family bloodline.

[04:34:26] <crutchy> not so bad now that she can talk
[04:34:22] <Ethanol-fueled> And encouraged to see even their harmless peers as enemies.
[04:34:04] <Ethanol-fueled> that's by design. Nowadays people are taught that there is always an enemy.
[04:33:33] <crutchy> doesn't matter if you're innocent. you get a label like that and it never goes away
[04:33:30] <Ethanol-fueled> Yeesh.
[04:32:55] <crutchy> when my daughter was born, i was shitscared of being in public with her alone out of fear of being accused of kidnapping or some shit
[04:32:30] <Ethanol-fueled> But nobody challenges that.
[04:32:22] <Ethanol-fueled> That is deliberate.
[04:32:15] <crutchy> laws and feminazis are everywhere
[04:32:00] <crutchy> but its hard now
[04:31:56] <Ethanol-fueled> I was of single-digit age and riding my bike miles across town.
[04:31:54] <crutchy> i think a lot of parents want to
[04:31:27] <Ethanol-fueled> I am not a parent, but would not raise a kid in an environment where that kid could not be a kid.
[04:29:58] <crutchy> (hasn't happened to me fortunately)
[04:29:45] <crutchy> and if you don't protect your kids from the ebils of society, you get accused of neglect and threatened with intervention
[04:29:29] <Ethanol-fueled> crutchy, and that is a damn shame.
[04:28:59] <Ethanol-fueled> anytime we were playing outside, all the neighborhood kids would congregate and we would all shoot the shit.
[04:28:51] <crutchy> now parenting is about protecting kids from the ebils of society
[04:28:47] <chromas> You have fun with them but then grow up to raise kids that don't play with them :)
[04:28:37] <chromas> Those are all terrible toys
[04:28:25] <Ethanol-fueled> oh yeah. We all had bikes, we jumped bikes, did WWF-style wresting on our front yards
[04:28:01] <crutchy> i used to play with matchbox cars outside, making tracks in the dirt too. kids dont seem to do that anymore either :(
[04:27:48] <Ethanol-fueled> we would be characters from video games and play DND-style acting-outs of our favorite games.
[04:27:37] <chromas> but it sounds like something you'd do with a stick of butter

[04:26:51] <crutchy> eventually i got to mix in some technic lego when i was old enough not to eat it
[04:26:41] <Ethanol-fueled> I had a lot of friends who were into legos, and NES
[04:26:21] <crutchy> i only had the basic stuff
[04:26:08] <Ethanol-fueled> legos were expensive for what they were.

[04:25:58] <crutchy> but i used to win some lego comps in the local show
[04:25:45] <crutchy> i was obsessed with lego as a kid. i never had anything fancy either
[04:25:13] <Ethanol-fueled> My friends and I, back then, would make huge lego projects and have cleanup parties.
[04:24:53] <Ethanol-fueled> Yeah. Pretty sad.
[04:24:43] <crutchy> they just make the picture on the box and then want the next thing :/
[04:24:28] <Ethanol-fueled> legos were the primary driver of my intellectual development. Those and Calvin and Hobbes books.
[04:24:26] <crutchy> kids nowadays don't even know what lego is about anymore
[04:24:03] <Ethanol-fueled> Yeah, we had that too.
[04:24:00] <crutchy> and lego

[03:56:17] <SpallsHurgenson> plus, the 10mbit up is ridiculously low, and - probably just to confuse me - it's actually 15mb up when I measure it. Is there no end to their despicableness?
[03:54:44] <Ethanol-fueled> I've never hit the cap. THough since my provider just lost a lawsuit, now's the time.

[03:54:00] <SpallsHurgenson> they had the gall to upgrade me to free hbo too, the bastards :-/
[03:53:40] <crutchy> or 60 cant remember

[03:52:32] <crutchy> lol
