[00:17:25] <chromas> [laugh track]
[00:18:38] * Deucalion curses Steam's default checking of the "save these payment details" box for a moment....
[00:19:53] <crutchy> has steam been unfukked?
[00:21:23] <Deucalion> And the paypal tab crashed out mid payment... no idea if I paid or not right now.
[00:21:38] <crutchy> oh bugger

[00:25:32] <crutchy> AU$10.15
[00:25:35] <crutchy> (using google)
[00:26:02] <crutchy> not sure if the price is different on steam

[00:50:04] <Runaway1956> Just thought of a cool nuisance bug report I can make in a few days.
[00:50:27] <Runaway1956> "My VLC player lost it's santa hat, and I want it back!"
[00:50:57] <Runaway1956> I just need to think of someone's name to attach to the bug report . . . .

[01:01:39] <crutchy> nah its done
[01:01:58] <crutchy> looks like new :D
[01:02:07] <Runaway1956> Oh - with the biggus dickus comment, I figured you were oiling something else . . .
[01:03:03] <chromas> First the back deck; then the front one
[01:03:13] <crutchy> lol
[01:03:34] <crutchy> was trying to think of names for your bug report
[01:03:40] <crutchy> Sillius Sausage

[01:31:47] <Bytram> nod nod
[01:32:13] <Bytram> I've seen some 50x errors on the main site, and occasional drops/reconnects on IRC.
[01:32:14] <paulej72> I been busy whit family stuff
[01:32:30] <Bytram> otherwise, from a user's perspective, no real impact.
[01:32:47] * Bytram hopes your family is doing okay
[01:33:59] <paulej72> Yep all is well, but Ina spent moat of yesterday and today dong house cleaning
[01:34:23] <paulej72> How,s your holiday been
[01:34:39] * Bytram looks around and notes that 'some cleaning' is in order, here, too.
[01:35:25] <Bytram> extremely busy. working lots of overtime and extended (mostly very early) hours has taken its toll
[01:35:38] <Bytram> have also been fighting some cold for a few weeks.
[01:35:52] <Bytram> but keeping in touch on this site has helped me to stay on balance.
[01:36:43] <paulej72> Yep I know how that is

[01:38:15] <crutchy> that must mean we're now part of the club that's worth someone's time to ddos :p
[01:38:23] <crutchy> oh

[01:39:01] <SpallsHurgenson> that's a tiny house
[01:39:02] <Bytram> ding dong. (Avon calling!)

[01:39:22] <Bytram> a cubit on a side?
[01:39:41] <crutchy> SpallsHurgenson has a 'ball' room :p
[01:40:08] <SpallsHurgenson> I never measured it, but women sure are impressed when they see how big it is :)
[01:40:37] <Bytram> does your ball room have an organ for them to play on?
[01:40:45] <Bytram> Try Bach tocatta and fugue
[01:40:50] <SpallsHurgenson> ah, crude inuendo... and people ask what I bring to this channel :) :)
[01:41:27] <Bytram> SpallsHurgenson: now that you mention it, what do you bring to this channel?

[01:43:30] <Bytram> oh, well okay then.
[01:43:34] <crutchy> maybe he wears shorts
[01:43:48] <crutchy> would blend in down here atm
[01:43:59] <SpallsHurgenson> short... pants?
[01:44:03] <Bytram> or he has never run out of breath from heavy exercise?

[01:44:51] * SpallsHurgenson dances around the festivus pole
[01:45:16] * Bytram notes that SpallsHurgenson is a little late for dancing around the May pole
[01:45:42] <crutchy> maybe he has a pole near his ball room
[01:45:51] <SpallsHurgenson> good thing I'm not dancing around that then :)
[01:46:46] <Bytram> agreed...
[01:46:56] * Bytram shudders at the thought of SpallsHurgenson being a pole dancer
[01:48:37] <SpallsHurgenson> strange, you didn't seem to have an issue with it yesterday as you were shoving $20 bills down my shirt :)

[01:49:48] <SpallsHurgenson> heh, if you google Festivus, there's an aluminum pole down the side of the search results :)

[01:51:12] <SpallsHurgenson> so... you what I'm hearing is that you want me to dance some more?
[01:52:02] <Bytram> not at all, you are free to do as you wish... don't let me stop you.
[01:53:46] <paulej72> I found a $50 beside the road on Sunday while I was out on a walk
[01:54:10] <SpallsHurgenson> odd, I lost $50 alongside that very same road...
[01:54:21] <crutchy> lol
[01:54:36] <SpallsHurgenson> that was the road with... erm... the roadway? that went from one place to the other?
[01:54:53] <paulej72> Give me the serial number and I'll see if it matches
[01:56:31] <SpallsHurgenson> I don't remember the serial number but I'm pretty sure I remember that it had a picture of Grant on it
[01:57:27] <SpallsHurgenson> oh, and it had the number 50 in each corner :)
[01:57:48] <crutchy> you were playing monopoly?
[01:58:54] <SpallsHurgenson> nah, I learned to stop playing real-money monopoly after the fifth or sixth time

[02:05:51] <SirFinkus> yeah, microsoft dark patterned me into windows 10
[02:06:27] <SirFinkus> one day I boot into windows and suddenly windows 10 is installing
[02:06:36] <SpallsHurgenson> somebody didn't uninstall Update 3035583 :)
[02:06:51] <SirFinkus> more like Update 8008135
[02:08:09] <SirFinkus> that's just the latest in a series of indignities I've suffered over the past 24 hours
[02:10:02] <SpallsHurgenson> that's terrible. tell us all about it :)
[02:10:30] <SirFinkus> it's not entertaining, just standard windows bullshit
[02:10:40] <SirFinkus> the error message was funny though
[02:10:48] <SpallsHurgenson> so... nothing blackmailable?
[02:10:54] <SirFinkus> not quite as funny as the "something happened" one
[02:11:29] <SirFinkus> just the standard "I updated windows and everything is now broken" narrative
[02:11:32] <cmn32480> so, do you like Win 10?
[02:11:58] <SirFinkus> it's pretty (sometimes)
[02:12:06] <SpallsHurgenson> bleh.

[03:16:13] <fliptop> i was watching bill burr talk about that last night
[03:16:53] <cmn32480> in truth, I'm pretty blessed that my kids are relatively even keel, when compared to my brother and sister's kids
[03:17:28] <SpallsHurgenson> odd, your brother was saying exactly the same thing :)
[03:17:43] <cmn32480> you musta been taling to my other brother Daryl
[03:17:49] <fliptop> same here, although just my sister has them. mine are out of the house and hers is 6
[03:19:44] <SpallsHurgenson> Daryl32480 is good people.
[03:20:15] <cmn32480> yes he is
[03:21:15] <cmn32480> methinks that my first impression of windows 10 is that it could be viable
[03:21:32] <SpallsHurgenson> don't be fooled by first appearances!
[03:23:16] <cmn32480> I'll know more in a few days, once I get all my software installed, and use the VM for a bit
[03:24:11] * cmn32480 gets the feeling that no good deed will go unpunished
[03:24:12] <jdavidb> Put Cygwin on it and it might be viable....
[03:24:46] <cmn32480> lol
[03:25:16] <cmn32480> my problem is taht if I am going to upgrade the systems of the entire company, it'll need to be decided on in the next 60 day so that we can take advantage fo the free upgrade.
[03:27:01] <cmn32480> and no matter how much I might want to NOT be a windows shop, ther isn't an alternative at this moment that is going to handle what we do.
[03:31:30] <jdavidb> Happens to the best of us.
[03:31:49] <jdavidb> Cygwin has made the last ~4 incarnations of Windows viable for me, anyway

[03:52:07] <cmn32480> find a neighbor wiht a bigger tractor?
[03:53:06] <fliptop> sometimes, or i use a come-along (if a tree is close by), or pull it out w/ my farm truck
[03:53:24] <fliptop> i'm looking for a used winch to put on the front of the tractor
[03:54:08] <cmn32480> how big?
[03:54:11] <cmn32480> weightwise
[03:54:42] <fliptop> 28 hp on the pto, 3-cyl diesel
[03:54:45] <fliptop> lemme find a pic
[03:55:00] <cmn32480> sorry.. I mean the wieght of the tractor
[03:55:17] <fliptop> not sure offhand, probably a couple thousand
[03:55:21] <fliptop> lbs
[03:56:30] <cmn32480> there are some electric ones (12V) that do 12k lbs for a few hundred on ebay.. but I don't know jack about these things
[03:57:16] <fliptop> i found a pic, an old one:

[03:58:02] <fliptop> it sure don't look that clean anymore!!
[03:58:29] <cmn32480> that when it was new
[03:58:43] <cmn32480> or newer, anyway
[03:58:46] <fliptop> pretty much, it had 300 hours on it when i bought it
[03:59:12] <cmn32480> lot more than that now, eh?
[03:59:47] <fliptop> almost 900, not too bad. it takes about 25 hours to mow my fields, and some of my neighbor's
[04:00:04] <cmn32480> and that has to be done how often?
[04:00:19] <fliptop> the rest is winter hours, cutting firewood and the occasional movement of earth from here to there
[04:00:33] <fliptop> i mow the big fields once a year, after the milkweed blooms
[04:00:48] <cmn32480> gotcha
[04:00:50] <fliptop> tall stuff near the house gets it 2 or 3 times
[04:01:01] <fliptop> otherwise my basement would be full of wolf spiders
[04:01:10] <cmn32480> <shudder>
[04:01:36] <cmn32480> as bad as bedbugs.
[04:01:40] <cmn32480> <shudder>
[04:01:42] <fliptop> yeah, no doubt. i killed like 1000 of them the 1st winter we lived here, all because of tall grass near the house

[04:02:21] <fliptop> it was actually kind of funny
[04:02:48] <cmn32480> I imagine that after a while it was like the Arachnaphobia
[04:02:50] <fliptop> there was a line of them, all along my foundation, waiting to slip into a small crack near a window
[04:03:07] <fliptop> just standing in queue, patiently waiting their turn
[04:03:21] <cmn32480> and you walked the line with a can of RAID?
[04:03:28] <fliptop> i watched them for a while, before unleashing a propane torch on them
[04:03:36] <cmn32480> even better
[04:03:43] <cmn32480> as long as you don't set the house on fire
[04:04:06] <fliptop> it was on the foundation, which sticks up above ground level a little bit

[18:24:25] <cmn32480> looks like a hacked account and a hoax
[18:24:46] <jdavidb> hopefully it was all just a hack, but it sounded like a realistic scenario of someone extremely upset or using mind altering substances who had a run-in with the police, so I'm going to be curious if we ever hear more

[23:15:56] <SirFinkus> In the wake of Ian's death I must seriously ask: if you're going to kill yourself over establishment abuse, why go alone? Get to Valhalla.
[23:16:00] <SirFinkus> oh Andrew
[23:16:53] <Runaway1956> I am rather partial to Valhalla - I need to get busy, and send some slaves ahead to make me comfortable when I arrive.
[23:18:41] <chromas> If you're going to kill yourself, may as well murder some bad guys while you're at it
[23:19:30] * chromas retroactively converts him to islam
[23:22:50] <crutchy> if you're going to kill yourself, why not go out with a bang, ey ej?
[23:23:10] <Runaway1956> Hmmm - an article that maybe should have accompanied the story on Russia's state bank: http://www.pravdareport.com

[23:24:00] <Runaway1956> Trying to back Russia into a corner isn't the smartest thing that the US and NATO could be doing.
[23:25:30] <Gravis> Runaway1956: russia has the option to leave ukraine (and other states) alone.
[23:26:35] <crutchy> so does the USA
[23:27:36] <Gravis> crutchy: bring on the sanctions because i would rather we not be in so many places.
[23:27:50] <Runaway1956> Uh-huh - and the Kock brothers had the option not to "invest" 14 billion dollars in Ukraine, to topple the government
[23:28:16] <crutchy> Gravis, your government is doing a superb job at fucking itself up the ass
[23:28:33] <crutchy> the rest of the world is probably more inclined to watch you squirm
[23:29:04] <Gravis> yeah, it's capitalism at it's finest
[23:29:26] * chromas opens a concession stand
[23:29:42] <crutchy> you still confusing government and capitalism?
[23:29:48] <crutchy> you're beyond help dude
[23:29:49] * Runaway1956 laughs his ass off
[23:30:10] <Gravis> crutchy: you act as if they aren't helplessly intertwined.
[23:30:23] <crutchy> if they are, then it aint capitalism
[23:30:46] <Gravis> it is and it's capitalism at it's finest
[23:30:47] <Runaway1956> Eisenhower warned us about the military industrial complex, but we didn't listen Gravis
[23:31:02] <nick> what is going on here...
[23:31:09] <crutchy> Gravis, you just want it to be capitalism so you can have your boogeyman
[23:31:26] <Gravis> crutchy: no, it's just reality.
[23:31:31] <Runaway1956> booogie woooogie
[23:31:36] <crutchy> well reality aint capitalism dude
[23:31:57] <crutchy> its somethingelseism
[23:32:54] <Gravis> of course not, reality is reality. capitalism having it's tendrals in every part of government is just how capitalism evolves to thirve.
[23:32:55] <Runaway1956> I had that in social studies, somethingelseism 101
[23:33:06] <crutchy> lol
[23:33:21] <crutchy> Runaway1956, Gravis is our resident socialist retard
[23:33:28] <crutchy> we love him all the same
[23:33:33] <Gravis> capitalism is a survival of the fitest
[23:33:50] <Runaway1956> No, Gravis, I don't believe that is true
[23:34:13] <crutchy> Runaway1956, argue with him all you like (its fun) but don't expect him to understand
[23:34:14] <Gravis> crutchy: that's a misnomer because i'm not for socialism either
[23:34:17] <Runaway1956> We have only ever competed against Communism and a bunch of little underdogs
[23:34:35] <crutchy> Gravis, then you're a fascist
[23:35:05] <Gravis> that's what is called a false dichotomy
[23:35:08] * Runaway1956 puts on SJW cloak
[23:35:19] <nick> we have a political triangle now?
[23:35:24] <Runaway1956> Now, crutchy, those are hurtful words
[23:35:40] <crutchy> nick, nah its just same old same old :p
[23:35:53] <crutchy> Runaway1956, Gravis prolly took it as a compliment
[23:36:14] * Runaway1956 takes of stinky cloak
[23:36:32] <crutchy> he wants to kill off a large portion of humanity and replace it with robots that appear out of thin air
[23:37:07] <Gravis> crutchy: you really are racking up the logical fallacies today
[23:37:48] <crutchy> they're basically your words, so glad you're seeing the stupidity of it
[23:38:15] <Gravis> "basically"
[23:38:34] <crutchy> want me to drag out some quotes?
