[00:12:49] <BadCoderFinger> Hi guys!
[00:18:55] <cmn32480> ~gday BadCoderFinger
[00:18:57] * exec diabolically twerks my butt of toecheese for BadCoderFinger
[00:19:17] <BadCoderFinger> Wow man. I need a hazmat suit for that.
[00:20:01] <BadCoderFinger> How are you, cmn32480?
[00:20:32] <cmn32480> holding on with both hands trying not to fall off
[00:20:40] <cmn32480> how 'bout you?
[00:21:06] <cmn32480> back in a couple... gotta put my kids to bed
[00:21:15] <cmn32480> but I am heading your direction on Wednesday
[00:22:22] <TheMightyBuzzard> ugh, ate way too much general tso's chicken. he's gonna be pissed.
[00:22:39] <BadCoderFinger> He only rents it. Wait until he asks for it back.
[00:23:47] <BadCoderFinger> How are things, TMB?
[00:24:03] <TheMightyBuzzard> two pounds of mildly spicy bird in my gut, so pretty good i suppose.
[00:24:41] <TheMightyBuzzard> i should have stopped at one and filled the cracks with beer. now i can't fit any beer in.
[00:25:03] <TheMightyBuzzard> #weather
[00:25:03] <MrPlow> Today: Clear. Lows overnight in the low 40s. Tomorrow: Generally sunny. High 69F. Winds ENE at 10 to 15 mph.
[00:25:19] <TheMightyBuzzard> niiiice. fooshes here i come!
[00:25:25] <BadCoderFinger> No room for beer? Man, that's the definition of too much chicken!
[00:26:28] <TheMightyBuzzard> i know, right? i couldn't just leave a half a pound in the container though.
[00:32:08] <BadCoderFinger> Heh!
[00:32:22] <BadCoderFinger> Just means the beer gets a bit of a delay.
[00:32:59] <TheMightyBuzzard> indeed. currently giving myself a bit of a digestion timeout.
[00:34:29] <TheMightyBuzzard> so, got about 40 plants bout to be sprouting in a grow box in the kitchen. means i have about two weeks to have either a garden or one hell of a planter ready for them.
[00:37:24] * TheMightyBuzzard ponders herbal logistics
[00:37:31] <BadCoderFinger> Lets hope the frosts stop.
[00:37:48] <BadCoderFinger> Dude, I'm in Colorado. There are a huge amount of "herbalists" here.
[00:38:38] -!- JamesNZ [JamesNZ!~JamesNZ@60.234.vml.gj] has joined #Soylent
[00:38:51] <TheMightyBuzzard> my herbs would hurt poor lil hippies. habanero and anaheim peppers.
[00:39:09] <BadCoderFinger> It would be fun to watch them try, though.
[00:39:18] <TheMightyBuzzard> oh and a pair of jalapeno plants for nachos
[00:39:34] <TheMightyBuzzard> yeah, be hilarious watching them toke up
[00:39:38] <BadCoderFinger> Fresh jalapenos are the best.
[00:40:30] <TheMightyBuzzard> i dunno, i'm kinda partial to pickled ones for nachos. fresh work better for stuffed peppers n poppers though.
[00:41:06] <BadCoderFinger> I like the fresh ones on pizza.
[00:41:19] <TheMightyBuzzard> yar, much better.
[00:42:14] <TheMightyBuzzard> i guess i just got the pickled peppers on nachos stuck in my head from a couple decades of everyone using them.
[00:42:52] <BadCoderFinger> Yeah, they do work well there.
[00:43:45] <TheMightyBuzzard> habaneros i'm somewhat concerned about. going to try watering them enough to get less burn in them so i can get more of the flavor into the dishes i end up making with them.
[00:44:04] <TheMightyBuzzard> cause heat be damned, they taste goooood.
[00:45:34] * cmn32480 believes that TheMightyBuzzard is nucking futz
[00:45:35] <BadCoderFinger> Heh! A bit much for my aged stomach these days, but yeah, they do have a good flavor.
[00:45:56] * cmn32480 just got his jalepenos and seranos in the seed starter
[00:46:00] <cmn32480> WAY late
[00:46:17] <TheMightyBuzzard> yeah, hopefully it'll mean missing the last frost though
[00:46:35] <cmn32480> I think that already happened here
[00:46:55] <cmn32480> the seeds went into dirt in the last 24 horus
[00:47:35] <TheMightyBuzzard> BadCoderFinger, i like to send something just barely within my oral tolerance through the old digestive tract once a week or so, so the lower ends don't get to thinking they can slack off and lose their tolerance.
[00:48:20] <TheMightyBuzzard> cmn32480, ours too. i don't mind missing a week or two of production though with as many plants as we're gonna have.
[00:48:35] <BadCoderFinger> Gotta do some real damage at some point, that'll teach it!
[00:48:48] * TheMightyBuzzard nods sagely to BadCoderFinger
[00:49:01] <TheMightyBuzzard> get off your ass, rectum
[00:51:19] <cmn32480> dunno how many I'll get planted
[00:51:53] <TheMightyBuzzard> i'm going with all of em even if i gotta build planters
[00:52:48] <TheMightyBuzzard> fairly certain ima have to anyway. that or drop $200 on pots alone.

[00:54:15] <BadCoderFinger> Damn those pepper-thieving chickens!
[00:54:16] <Bytram|away> oh deer!
[00:54:26] Bytram|away is now known as Bytram
[00:54:26] <cmn32480> not quite as effective as a shotgun... but I do live in a residential area
[00:54:36] <TheMightyBuzzard> ahh. not a worry here. they all stay across the street.
[00:54:40] <cmn32480> great... now our gardens will be broken
[00:54:55] <TheMightyBuzzard> ~gday Bytram
[00:54:57] * exec casually crossbreeds a bucket of sammiches with Bytram
[00:55:04] <cmn32480> ~gday bytram
[00:55:05] * exec proverbially cyberbullies a misused Excel sheet of Jesus' Cheeses at bytram
[00:55:29] <Bytram> gday
[00:55:38] <cmn32480> BadCoderFinger - I'm heading your way in a few days
[00:55:47] <cmn32480> how is thigns since the blizzard?
[00:55:50] <BadCoderFinger> Cool, all the way to Denver?
[00:55:56] <cmn32480> yep
[00:56:02] <cmn32480> Pueblo actually
[00:56:09] * Bytram has a sticky control key and some strange things start happening when I am typing and a letter gets treated as an immediate action in whatever program I am typing
[00:56:24] * cmn32480 donest' wanna know why bytram has sticky keys
[00:56:26] <BadCoderFinger> Cleared up. We have more snow moving in Wednesday, but it'll be a mix of rain and snow. No real problem.
[00:56:33] <cmn32480> ugh
[00:56:37] <cmn32480> ah well
[00:56:46] <TheMightyBuzzard> yick. glad that nonsense is done and over with here.
[00:56:58] * Bytram thinks the keys are just tired after all the keypresses they've endured
[00:57:08] <BadCoderFinger> The downside of Colorado: Winter does not want to let go.
[00:57:10] <Bytram> snowed here last week
[00:57:12] <Bytram> :P
[00:57:18] <Bytram> !uid
[00:57:18] <Bender> The current maximum UID is 6178, owned by Jorrit
[00:57:20] <cmn32480> was 65 and sunny here last week
[00:57:35] <Bytram> ~weather boston

[00:58:27] <Bytram> given a choice, I think I'd go for a snowstorm instead of a driving, cold rain.
[00:58:40] <cmn32480> ~weather

[00:58:48] <TheMightyBuzzard> not me. don't gotta shovel rain.
[00:59:07] <cmn32480> and if you get enough of it you can float your rubber duck!
[00:59:25] * Bytram lives in an apartment -- doesn't have to shovel snow, either
[00:59:43] <TheMightyBuzzard> #youtube rubber ducky
[00:59:43] <MrPlow> https://www.youtube.com
[00:59:55] <cmn32480> but Bytram does have to put a chair in his parking space
[01:00:18] <Bytram> there are enough spaces in the lot that it is not necessary to 'reserve' one
[01:00:54] <BadCoderFinger> Colorado does get snow, but it's usually gone within a day. Unless you live in the mountains, then you get snowed in for a month.
[01:01:42] <cmn32480> so the snow puts you at an impasse?
[01:02:23] <BadCoderFinger> Not usually on the plains. The blizzard was unusual because they closed down big chunks of the interstate. That doesn't happen that often here.
[01:02:40] <cmn32480> I should think not
[01:02:42] <BadCoderFinger> Plus up in the mountains, you get feet of snow, heh.
[01:02:56] <cmn32480> we had that happen this year
[01:03:05] <cmn32480> 3ft all at once
[01:03:12] * Bytram tries to remember where 'The Shining' was?
[01:04:33] <BadCoderFinger> Estes Park, the Stanley Hotel there.
[01:04:44] * TheMightyBuzzard stops poking at testbot and blinks in revelation
[01:05:05] <Bytram> BadCoderFinger: what state is that?
[01:05:07] <TheMightyBuzzard> #youtube C is for cookie
[01:05:07] <MrPlow> https://www.youtube.com
[01:05:14] <BadCoderFinger> Bytram: Colorado!
[01:05:27] <BadCoderFinger> The best place for getting snowed in at a horror hotel!
[01:05:31] <Bytram> But of course! (Doh.)
[01:05:41] <BadCoderFinger> They'll actually rent you the exact room if you ask for it.
[01:05:54] <TheMightyBuzzard> guess i can't complain about libcurl's cookie handling anymore. can't argue with the cookie monster.
[01:06:02] <Bytram> Is there a premium rate for the room?
[01:06:19] <TheMightyBuzzard> c++
[01:06:19] <Bender> karma - c: 53
[01:06:26] <TheMightyBuzzard> cookies++

[01:06:47] <BadCoderFinger> Probably, I've never rented a room there. Driven past it plenty of times, it's on the way to Rocky Mountain National Park.

[01:08:35] <TheMightyBuzzard> that was oddly relevant across the statement
[01:09:09] <Runaway1956> relevancy is highly overrated

[01:19:13] <cmn32480> I shall make mud
[01:19:55] <cmn32480> and I found a heat sink that will fit
[01:23:06] <Runaway1956> Cool - that other one was to big after all, huh?
[01:23:24] <cmn32480> that massive 6.5inch one?
[01:23:25] <cmn32480> yeah
[01:23:36] <cmn32480> and the fucker weight like 2lbs plus!
[01:23:41] <Runaway1956> I stuck my measuring finger inside my cabinet, and I'm not sure that 5.5 inches would fit - that's getting tight
[01:24:11] <cmn32480> mine gets to about 6.25 and I think that would have been pushing it
[01:24:30] <cmn32480> 5.5 shoudl fit nicely, but I may have to take a case fan off to accomodate
[01:24:55] <Runaway1956> You should be able to just move a case fan, rather than eliminate it

[01:30:31] * Runaway1956 never could understand the people who wait to mail their returns on April 14th @ midnight

[01:34:21] <Runaway1956> wait a second - terminology - your heat sink is compatible with socket LGA2011 - is that for sure compatible with your AMD?

[01:41:07] <Runaway1956> as if I were going to attend any convention -
[01:41:18] <chromas> You can't take guns? Sounds like a conflict of interest

[01:47:31] <cmn32480> but if yo are carpooling, shouldn't you take swim trunks?

[01:48:18] <chromas> What you do is put the water in the back

[01:48:35] <cmn32480> and snotcaulk the doors?
[01:49:27] <Runaway1956> Of course, it would only get me in trouble to point out that half the people she works with are to damned blind to see how fat her ass is
[01:49:35] <Runaway1956> the other half is impotent, and don't give a damn
[01:50:33] <chromas> They could see it butt there's a fat roll in the way
[01:50:54] <Runaway1956> You're trying to get me killed, Chromasss
[01:51:11] <chromas> Are you there now?

[01:59:01] <paulej72> fuck Hexchat on the mac. emoji don't show up
[01:59:09] <cmn32480> fix yer font
[01:59:24] <cmn32480> same issue on Wondows until you fix the font
[01:59:41] <chromas> oh yeah, doesn't the mac replace 'em with colored on—I mean uh, emojis of color?
[01:59:48] <paulej72> I have tried, but it doesn't work as well on the Max
[02:00:47] <cmn32480> BadCoderFinger - if emoji insults are rock bottom... what the hell have we been sitting on the last 2 years?
[02:01:05] <BadCoderFinger> Wooden bottom.
[02:01:15] <cmn32480> oh
[02:01:24] <cmn32480> of course... I should have known that
[02:01:35] <BadCoderFinger> All that's left is the molten metal floor of Hell itself.
[02:02:12] <cmn32480> wait until 4/1
[02:02:20] <BadCoderFinger> Heh!
[02:02:39] * chromas sets BadCoderFinger's desktop font to Webdings
[02:03:49] <paulej72> dingbats
[02:05:12] <cmn32480> wing dings?
[02:08:50] <cmn32480> WTF??? You can get a Newegg credit card, that gives you 0% financing for 6 or 12 months... approved in minutes. But you can't use the card for anything until you get the physical card in the mail.
[02:09:01] <cmn32480> how useless
[02:10:08] <paulej72> brick and mortar stores will let you do that
[02:10:33] <paulej72> 6 to 12 months delivery on the card too
[02:11:25] <Bytram> cmn32480: place the order by phone.
[02:11:27] <Bytram> ??
[02:12:06] <cmn32480> you can't get the account number until you get the card in the mail
[02:12:45] <Bytram> heh.
[02:13:22] <cmn32480> and some of the bits for this new rig have rebates, etc.
[02:13:37] * Bytram suspects that it is a security thing
[02:13:42] <cmn32480> that expire end of month
[02:13:49] <Bytram> oh.
[02:14:28] <Bytram> that's a puzzler -- wish I had a bright idea.
[02:14:33] <cmn32480> I don't
[02:14:51] <cmn32480> I suppose I shall wait and hop that it doens't csot me too much
[02:15:03] <cmn32480> .me goes digging for the parts on Amazon.
[02:15:07] * cmn32480 goes digging for the parts on Amazon.
[02:16:10] <Bytram> best I can suggest is to call customer service, explain the situation that you've just been approved for a new credit card (YAY!), and you want to use it (YAY! YAY!), and you can't spend any money there until you get the new CC in the mail (Say WHAT?), and have rebates that expire in 3 days. -- How can I buy these things on my new card?
[02:16:38] <cmn32480> have tried that before... answer is: YOU CAN'T!
[02:16:47] <Bytram> you actually called?
[02:17:10] <cmn32480> yep at a different company.
[02:17:15] <Bytram> nod nod
[02:17:16] <cmn32480> they can't get the account number either
[02:17:26] <Bytram> do try it at THIS company, too.
[02:17:38] <Bytram> is important to document that you DID try...
[02:17:50] <cmn32480> the rebates are from the manufacturer...
[02:18:04] <Bytram> cause after you miss out on rebates, write to the company, state how much you missed out on, and ask them to make you whole.
[02:18:54] <cmn32480> I'm not gonna sweat it
[02:19:03] <Bytram> if you work it far enough up the chain-of-command, you'll find someone who will, at a minimum, either authorize a gift card for that amount, or a credit to your account for the amount you lost out on.
[02:19:06] <cmn32480> I can push off buying the bits for this for as long as I want
[02:19:18] <cmn32480> wait for July 4th or Memorial day sales
[02:19:38] * Bytram has learned a *LOT* about what is possible after working many years in retail.
[02:19:44] <cmn32480> hehe
[02:20:07] <paulej72> whine enough and somebody will give in and shut you up
[02:20:08] <cmn32480> step 1 - price all the bits on Amazon.
[02:20:15] * Bytram once got a $150 paper shredder (20+ sheet crosscut) for about $45
[02:21:05] * Bytram saw a sign on a nice one at a great price, broughtit up to the register, challenged the wrong price that came up, brought the cashier over, and then the store manager
[02:21:09] <paulej72> step 2 ask for amazon gift cards for bithday/Christmas/Ester from all you family
[02:21:16] <Bytram> LOL
[02:21:29] <cmn32480> yup!
[02:21:30] <Bytram> manager said the sign belonged somewhere else.
[02:22:04] <Bytram> I said, I apprecaite that, but as you saw before you moved it, it was *on* the shredder I brought up to the counter. I want that price.
[02:22:05] <cmn32480> doesn't matter... sign was there
[02:22:07] <paulej72> last paper shreader I bourht was $1500
[02:22:09] <Bytram> and that, was that.
[02:22:31] <Bytram> paulej72: you trying to shred paper whileit was still in the whole tree?
[02:22:40] <cmn32480> I remember Mom doing that on an $800 mattress when I was a kid.
[02:22:46] <cmn32480> got it for <$300
[02:22:53] <Bytram> !woop
[02:22:53] <Bender> woop woop woop (\/) (;,,;) (\/)
[02:22:58] <paulej72> department level office shredder
[02:23:14] <Bytram> oh, now you are shredding whole departments? that WOULD cost a lot!
[02:23:21] <cmn32480> complete with "Do Not insert Hands" stickers
[02:23:41] <Bytram> cmn32480: "Please do not insert remaining hand."
[02:23:58] <cmn32480> so they can identify who got dropped in?
[02:24:14] <Bytram> "Please be sure to keep tie away from opening"
[02:25:08] <Bytram> (learned that one from an IBM tech -- moving parts and motors can haul a tie into the machinery in no time flat, and take your head in a long with it.
[02:25:30] <Bytram> ) bow ties were popular in that dept.
[02:26:26] * cmn32480 decideds to convert an old Linksys to DD-WRT to get a USB print server out of it
[02:26:50] * cmn32480 adecided to do this AFTER he gets all his bits priced on Amazon.
[02:27:26] <Bytram> old linksys... old linksys 'what'?
[02:27:32] <Bytram> router?
[02:27:46] <paulej72> they don't sell human body parts on amazon, yet
[02:29:01] <Bytram> taking a break
[02:29:07] <Bytram> back soon
[02:29:13] <paulej72> so I don't know how cmn32480 will get his bits priced on amazon
[02:29:40] <cmn32480> first I measure... then look for part numbers

[15:56:16] <nick> websites are so lame, ok for grandpas maybe, but us kids like apps that we can pay for, which then call up a cloud based resource to display the information requested.

[17:16:03] <Gravis> freedom isn't free... it's 207 million dollars
[17:24:08] <AndyTheAbsurd> is that more, or less, than the F-35 JSF program?
[17:24:17] <AndyTheAbsurd> if it's less then freedom is a bargain
[17:27:24] <cmn32480> really AndyTheAbsurd? you can't buy the nuts and bolts for the JSF for that piddly dollar figure

[18:20:06] <FatPhil> Did the US govt ever say how long the "metadata" for communication records would be held for?
[18:36:06] <paulej72> isn't a given: forever
[18:36:46] <FatPhil> I'm presuming it really is forever, but I don;t know if they ever tried to lie about the time dimension as well as the space dimension.
[18:37:40] <FatPhil> Just in case you're wondering if it is forever, this case should persuade you it will be: https://en.wikipedia.org

[22:44:29] <BadCoderFinger> Hi guys
[22:44:38] <SirFinkus> what do you want?
[22:49:39] <BadCoderFinger> Beer, pretty much. Failing that, a new job wouldn't be bad.
[22:49:53] <SirFinkus> $beer BadCoderFinger
[22:49:53] * aqu4 gives BadCoderFinger a cold can of beer
[22:50:04] <SirFinkus> $newjob BadCoderFinger
[22:50:06] <BadCoderFinger> Woohoo, beer!
[22:50:10] <SirFinkus> eh
[22:50:40] <BadCoderFinger> How are things?
[22:50:50] <SirFinkus> not bad
[22:50:56] <SirFinkus> spring break
[22:51:00] <SirFinkus> WOOHOO
[22:51:06] * SirFinkus flashes tits
[22:51:15] <BadCoderFinger> Yikes, man.
[22:52:07] <BadCoderFinger> Even if you were a girl, I'd rather not be flashed by a girl that chooses the appellation "Sir"
[22:52:42] <SirFinkus> but I am a girl *blush*
[22:52:52] <BadCoderFinger> See? That's my point.
[22:52:58] <SirFinkus> I'm looking for a big strong irc man
[22:53:09] <BadCoderFinger> Well, that leaves me out.
[22:54:02] <SirFinkus> or does it?
[22:54:06] <BadCoderFinger> Heh!
[22:54:48] * SirFinkus has been watching redlettermedia videos for longer than she cares to admit
[22:55:04] <BadCoderFinger> Are you in Daytona for Spring Break? Or is that a general, "I've got many beers for Spring Break!" sort of Spring Break?
[22:55:33] <SirFinkus> well, you can never have too many beers
[22:55:49] <SirFinkus> given the two choices, I guess it'd be #1
[22:56:25] <BadCoderFinger> I've been to Daytona once, but it was for the Daytona 200 race for Bike Week.
