[02:10:10] <Runaway1956> I see that Plowboy is feeling better - three submissions in a row!
[02:11:09] <SirFinkus> time for top gear e03
[02:11:10] <SirFinkus> uhnng
[02:11:27] <SirFinkus> honestly, it's not a terrible show, it just isn't particularly good
[02:15:02] <chromas> excellent slogan
[02:15:10] <chromas> "Top Gear: It's not terrible"
[02:15:17] <SirFinkus> yeah, pretty much
[02:15:25] <chromas> "Watch Top Gear tonight, if there's nothing else going on"
[02:15:48] <SirFinkus> I think the hosts are finding their own personalities a bit now, based on this episode so far
[02:16:31] <SirFinkus> the biggest problem with the first few episode was that the main guy would try to emulate clarkson
[02:16:47] <SirFinkus> cringeworthy
[02:16:56] <cmn32480> says sirfinkus 90 seconds in
[02:17:06] <SirFinkus> I'm actually like 5 mintues in
[02:17:56] <SirFinkus> I kind of like the "make main presenter puke " gag
[02:18:02] <cmn32480> says sirfinkus 4200 seconds in
[02:19:38] <SirFinkus> 4200?
[02:19:43] <SirFinkus> might want to check your math
[02:19:52] <cmn32480> 420
[02:19:57] <cmn32480> stupid extra zeros
[02:20:02] <cmn32480> least I dind't fail English
[02:20:05] <SirFinkus> also wrong
[02:20:09] <chromas> deciseconds
[02:20:20] <cmn32480> I failed spelling... and calculas
[02:20:24] <cmn32480> twice
[02:20:32] <SirFinkus> I didn't fail english
[02:20:40] <SirFinkus> or at least I don't think I did
[02:20:42] <cmn32480> me fail english? That's unpossible!
[02:20:57] <SirFinkus> I'd have to get a 25% or some shit on my final paper to fail english
[02:21:23] <SirFinkus> oh, nevermind, this is fucking dumb
[02:21:27] <cmn32480> well I hope you get at least a 26
[02:21:30] <SirFinkus> just ruined the episode
[02:21:37] <cmn32480> glad I could hel[p
[02:21:39] <SirFinkus> are your balls better yet?
[02:21:51] <SirFinkus> no, you didn't, the episode ruined it
[02:21:57] <Runaway1956> Isn't that kinda personal?
[02:22:09] <SirFinkus> not when he talks about them in IRC
[02:22:50] <Runaway1956> ~smake cmnballs

[02:24:15] <Runaway1956> well, cmn does that when he can't make it to the restroom
[02:24:20] <cmn32480> and yes, sirfinkus, since you asked, my nuggets are quite well, thanks
[02:24:42] <SirFinkus> good to hear
[02:24:43] <Runaway1956> "nuggets" - ala McDonalds?
[02:25:17] <cmn32480> somethign like that... but mine aren't "processed all white meat chicken substitute"
[02:25:39] <chromas> all beef nuggs
[02:25:45] <Runaway1956> So - there's dark meat in them
[02:27:07] <cmn32480> dunno... never seen em
[02:27:18] <cmn32480> I didn't really wanna look while they were cutting my sac open
[02:28:09] * Runaway1956 thinks about washing the dirty rice on the stove
[02:28:35] <cmn32480> what makes it dirty?
[02:28:42] <cmn32480> is it all in your mind?
[02:29:43] <Runaway1956> I think she drags it home behind the car, on the end of a string
[02:30:17] <cmn32480> meh.. could be worse.
[02:30:29] <cmn32480> that is a lot of strings if it is one grain per
[02:30:48] <Runaway1956> They she puts it in the cat litter box to get it thorughly dirty before she cooks it
[02:31:05] <cmn32480> does it come out with extra brown in it?
[02:31:35] <Runaway1956> I don't really understand the process, but she calls it "dirty rice"
[02:32:36] <Runaway1956> Uhhhh - wait a second - Orlando doctor's bloody sneakers? Doctors wear sneakers?
[02:32:57] <cmn32480> sure
[02:33:04] <cmn32480> nurses wear crocs
[02:33:13] * Runaway1956 leaves the rice on the stove and starts getting ready for work
[02:33:35] <Runaway1956> Oh - one more nugget of news -
[02:33:43] <SirFinkus> I like the rallycross stuff for the star in a car thing
[02:33:55] <Runaway1956> Omar Mateen did NOT USE an AR15 - he had a sig saur
[02:34:03] <cmn32480> yup
[02:34:09] <cmn32480> that's been all over the news
[02:34:18] <Runaway1956> Damned media sees anything that resembles a rifle, they see AR15
[02:34:33] <Runaway1956> Daisy AR15
[02:35:09] <SirFinkus> really, they're pretty much the same capabilities wise
[02:35:15] <SirFinkus> they kind of got it right in that regard
[02:35:34] <Runaway1956> Problem is - it's a buzz word
[02:35:35] <cmn32480> it is a semi-automatic rifle, shooting a small/medium caliber
[02:35:50] * chromas remembers the good ol' days when everything was an ak47
[02:36:01] <Runaway1956> facts aren't necessary when buzz words are available
[02:36:07] <cmn32480> the media can't tell an AR15 from an M4 from a Garand
[02:36:13] <Runaway1956> Gotta move - later
[02:36:20] <cmn32480> ~gnight Runaway1956
[02:36:21] * exec clumsily farts a snapshot of caffeine at Runaway1956
[02:36:34] <cmn32480> 'zactly chromas
[02:36:39] <SirFinkus> well, they can be forgiven for not being able to tell an ar15 from a m4
[02:38:38] <cmn32480> ok
[02:39:02] <cmn32480> true... but an ar15 from an ak47 from whatever
[02:39:05] <cmn32480> facts be damned!
[02:40:02] <SirFinkus> really, the media in general is ignorant of most subjects
[02:41:34] <SirFinkus> "shoulder thing that goes up" politicians piss me off more than journalists
[02:44:02] <cmn32480> we shoudl be ashamed of the idiots that we elect as our representatives at the federal level.
[02:44:12] <cmn32480> and often times at the local level too
[02:44:43] <SirFinkus> a gem from my house rep "Requiring a follow-up from the intelligence community when an individual on the no-fly list tries to buy a gun is a no-brainer."

[15:08:31] <TheMightyBuzzard> Runaway1956, that was yesterday. it was the wal-mart by a buddy of mine's house.
[15:12:04] <Runaway1956> Close to home, then, huh?
[15:12:55] <Runaway1956> Like the saying goes - "Don't mess with Texas." Terrorists haven't done well in Texas.
[15:13:24] <Runaway1956> Probably because there are few things more terrifying than a pissed of Texan?
[15:19:26] <cmn32480> mostly wankers with big hats
[15:20:00] <TheMightyBuzzard> and guns, except at the super market.
[15:20:59] <TheMightyBuzzard> mostly chicks at the supermarket and even in texas chicks is less likely to both carry and go after someone shooting up the place.
[15:21:56] <TheMightyBuzzard> weird thing is, wal-mart carries both guns and ammo. wtf was the sporting goods guy doing while this was going on instead of shooting the bastich?
[15:24:21] <AndyTheAbsurd> it's wal-mart; why do you think they have a dedicated sporting goods guy?
[15:24:57] <AndyTheAbsurd> the guy assigned to sporting goods was probably also covering toys, hardware, and automotive. so maybe he was busy with an oil change or tires or something.

[15:26:45] <TheMightyBuzzard> ya, he's usually off somewhere stocking something.

[15:26:55] * TheMightyBuzzard snickers
[15:27:03] <SirFinkus> well, it'd still be a mass shooting

[15:27:13] <TheMightyBuzzard> ya, just going the other direction
[15:28:42] <TheMightyBuzzard> s'like there's a pretty good reason there has never been a mass shooting at a gun show.

[22:17:49] juggs is now known as Deucalion
[22:23:18] <Deucalion> SirFinkus, Photonicinduction has been posting mad electrical shenanigans to YT for a long time. I remember one where he had constructed a ridiculous step-up transformer and every time he brought it online all the neighbours lights were dimming out to near nothing. Stuff he does looks dangerous, but it's not if you know your way around HV gear - which he clearly does... not that I'd try any of his made stuff.
[22:23:32] <SirFinkus> yeah, I saw that o ne too
[22:23:56] <SirFinkus> maybe doing it when drunk off your ass isn't a good idea though
[22:24:30] <Deucalion> Last I heard he was seriously unwell or indeed may have passed away - seem to remember reading some RIP posts on electrician forums ~6 months or so ago.
[22:26:31] <Deucalion> The one with the arc lamp in he tiny back garden mad me chuckle... I forget how many ridiculous amount of lumen it was.... but it lit up the neighbourhood like nothing I have ever seen. Popular with the neighbours much?! :D
[22:28:47] <Deucalion> Of course, he got a lot of grief for posting a lot of it... because... irresponsible yada yada etc. I say 'darwin' to anyone who meddles or tries to copy that kind of stuff without having the first clue. I just find it entertaining but know I'd never attempt it.
[22:33:16] <Deucalion> Anyways - busy day for me tomorrow.. laters

[23:02:04] <AndyTheAbsurd> "I’ve shot pistols before" and then "The brass shell casings disoriented me as they flew past my face."
[23:02:17] <AndyTheAbsurd> I guess all the pistols the author shot were revolvers...
[23:02:43] <takyon_> kek
[23:02:56] <takyon_> I have fired each like once
[23:03:35] <takyon_> well, time to write the story about Xbox/PS4
[23:11:40] <TheMightyBuzzard> AndyTheAbsurd, revolvers don't eject shell casings until you make them =P
[23:12:36] <chromas> That's why moving shells were new to the author
[23:13:34] <TheMightyBuzzard> ya, semi-autos are the Windows of guns. they go doing what they want instead of waiting until you tell them to do it.
[23:14:10] <chromas> What would be the Mac of guns?
[23:15:06] <TheMightyBuzzard> well that's obvious, the mac-10
[23:16:01] <chromas> point-and-click interface
[23:17:12] <TheMightyBuzzard> and only one button for pretty much anything you want to do with it
[23:17:42] * TheMightyBuzzard tries to figure out a way that story is worth submitting
[23:17:43] <chromas> So I hold it down to get a context menu
[23:18:02] <TheMightyBuzzard> no, to make a context menu go away
[23:18:08] <chromas> hah
[23:18:13] <TheMightyBuzzard> and anything else near it
[23:18:26] <chromas> well we just need some extra nexus.seseses for idle/funnies
[23:19:06] <TheMightyBuzzard> yeah, i can't see any way that's worth putting on the front page except to snark at.
[23:21:05] <TheMightyBuzzard> right, level3 started putting search pages up instead of returning a bad address response
[23:21:45] <TheMightyBuzzard> time to get a new dns provider
[23:22:29] <chromas> they've been doing that for months
[23:22:33] <chromas> dildos
[23:22:40] <chromas> but that was a dil-don't
[23:23:20] <TheMightyBuzzard> guess i hadn't noticed
[23:24:29] <takyon_> TheMightyBuzzard
[23:24:29] <chromas> I did start getting SERVFAIL from certain domains a couple days ago though
[23:24:41] <TheMightyBuzzard> takyon_,
[23:24:57] <takyon_> I just ordered a 6 gallon carboy and airlock that should get to me in a couple of days
[23:25:04] <TheMightyBuzzard> woot
[23:25:11] <TheMightyBuzzard> beer or wine?
[23:25:13] <takyon_> thinking of starting out with a dry mead
[23:25:22] <takyon_> 12 lbs of honey, 5 gallons of liquid
[23:25:43] <TheMightyBuzzard> yeah, that'll make a nicely strong flavored mead
[23:26:06] <TheMightyBuzzard> i usually use a pound per gallon but have no rational objection to using more
[23:26:33] <takyon_> damn, that's a lot lower than what I gathered
[23:26:39] <takyon_> which I got from...
[23:27:01] <TheMightyBuzzard> top it up to six gallons though when you go into the carboy
[23:27:14] <TheMightyBuzzard> you never wanna leave air in it
[23:27:19] <takyon_> http://www.stormthecastle.com
[23:27:20] <Cripple> ^ 03Mead Recipes
[23:27:39] <takyon_> can I use tap water instead of good water?
[23:27:56] <TheMightyBuzzard> if your tap water ain't rancid, sure.
[23:28:12] <TheMightyBuzzard> or you can buy gallons of spring water for under a buck at the store.
[23:28:15] <takyon_> wow they have Jeff Corwin talking about the Orlando kid that got eaten by a gator
[23:28:40] <TheMightyBuzzard> not distilled though. you need minerals n such in there.
[23:28:57] <takyon_> do you add any stuff along with the yeast
[23:29:14] <takyon_> like a yeast promoter or whatever they call it
[23:29:40] <TheMightyBuzzard> yup. yeast nutrient, tannin, usually some acid of some sort. lemon juice works.
[23:29:50] <TheMightyBuzzard> if you don't have acid blend handy.
[23:29:59] <takyon_> I was thinking of throwing some oranges in there or something
[23:30:31] <takyon_> along with whole spices like cloves
[23:30:33] <TheMightyBuzzard> ya, take the last gallon of water n throw a cinnamon stick or two and some quartered oranges with the peel still on in it n boil it
[23:30:41] <TheMightyBuzzard> nod nod
[23:30:58] <TheMightyBuzzard> don't go heavy on it and you'll just get hints of flavor later.
[23:31:14] <TheMightyBuzzard> subtle is better than a golf shoe to the face in flavoring
[23:31:28] <takyon_> this advice is so valuable

[23:32:40] <TheMightyBuzzard> if you have it or can get it i really recommend acid blend rather than than lemon juice but mead is the most forgiving of having citrus flavors in it
[23:32:56] <TheMightyBuzzard> oh, campden tablets... got em?
[23:33:04] <takyon_> no, I don't have a lot of stuff
[23:33:15] <takyon_> I only have bread yeast too so I'll need to go on a shopping trip
[23:33:46] <TheMightyBuzzard> campden tablets ain't expensive but they'll keep you from getting a spoiled brew from bacteria or whatnot getting in there.
[23:34:00] <takyon_> ain't inexpensive?
[23:34:19] <TheMightyBuzzard> few bucks gets you a pill bottle full
[23:34:29] <takyon_> gr8
[23:35:17] <takyon_> this is kind of an ask, but could you email your quick & dirty list/process to my soymail?
[23:35:28] <TheMightyBuzzard> just squash one per gallon between two spoons till they're powder when you first put it in the primary fermenter (glorified bucket) then do it again when you're ready to bottle.
[23:35:53] <chromas> Write up a how-to and post it :D
[23:36:02] <TheMightyBuzzard> ha, gimme a few. it's just yer nick @, yeah?
[23:36:06] <takyon_> yeah
[23:36:18] <takyon_> I need a secondary fermenter?
[23:36:24] <takyon_> lol
[23:36:36] <TheMightyBuzzard> ya, that's the carboy
[23:36:42] -!- FatPhil has quit [Ping timeout: 268 seconds]
[23:36:49] <TheMightyBuzzard> primary fermenter is a 5-6 gallon bucket
[23:37:00] <takyon_> the last time I tried to brew, it was a bucket with a cheescloth on the top
[23:37:05] <TheMightyBuzzard> zactly
[23:37:10] <takyon_> and it was the only place it brewed
[23:37:18] <TheMightyBuzzard> bit yeasty i bet
[23:37:18] <takyon_> it was the omega fermenter

[23:38:38] <TheMightyBuzzard> hmm?
[23:39:30] <takyon_> he's supporting banning people on terror-related lists from getting guns
[23:40:53] <takyon_> you can't hide SoyGuest93326
[23:41:00] <takyon_> you're on the list
[23:41:00] <TheMightyBuzzard> s'fine as long as them lists get overhauled so they're not "you're on it because we said so and can never get off"
[23:41:23] <takyon_> "as long as them lists get overhauled" <- Yeah we'll get right on that -- Friendly Neighborhood FBI
[23:42:07] <TheMightyBuzzard> zactly
[23:43:10] <takyon_> So is 1 pound of honey per gallon typical, because the site I linked portrayed 12 lbs/4 gal as light, 15 lbs/4 gal as "medium", and 18 lbs/4 gal as "sweet"
[23:44:02] <takyon_> I'm trying to do a 1 month brew to start. storebought honey, maybe free farm-sourced through a connection in the future
[23:47:11] <TheMightyBuzzard> there is no typical really.
[23:47:32] <TheMightyBuzzard> just like no two people make chili the same
[23:47:49] <takyon_> 3x is a big difference
[23:48:22] <takyon_> well I'll do a little more research into it
[23:50:53] <TheMightyBuzzard> go ahead with 12 if you like. i could be remembering wrong.
