[00:54:19] <muxer> i've been a big proponent of growing algae in the desert, i guess the hurdle there is getting water there. but if we can make vegas, we can get a water pipeline for an algae farm

[10:33:18] <TheMightyBuzzard> evenin, sheep botherer
[10:35:46] <malloc_free> sheep jokes? Yeah, na.
[10:36:47] <TheMightyBuzzard> i'll admit it's low-hanging fruit but at this point it's more tradition than joke to rib kiwis about sheep
[10:37:29] <malloc_free> so passé
[10:37:56] <TheMightyBuzzard> so's calling crutchy "convict" but... tradition
[10:40:14] <malloc_free> The one that gets me is the random hatred various countries still have for each other... for pretty much the same reason
[10:40:29] <malloc_free> brother in law is English, hates the French. Just cos.
[10:42:10] <TheMightyBuzzard> don't tell anyone but i don't actually hate the french. i just liked having a convenient default blame target before i met Bytram
[10:42:36] <TheMightyBuzzard> ~blame
[10:42:37] * exec points at Bytram
[10:44:43] <TheMightyBuzzard> besides, as much shit as we take from other nations just for being american, i feel disinclined to cease friendly insults.
[10:44:57] <TheMightyBuzzard> at least mine are friendly
[10:46:20] <JamesNZ> Salutations, 'murican \o
[10:47:33] * TheMightyBuzzard offers JamesNZ a hotdog and some apple pie
[10:48:17] <TheMightyBuzzard> i wouldn't take the hotdog, honestly. worst excuse for meat ever invented. kids love em though for some reason.
[10:48:50] <malloc_free> over here a hotdog is a sausage dipped in batter
[10:48:57] <malloc_free> deep fried
[10:50:48] <TheMightyBuzzard> mmmmm...
[10:54:31] <malloc_free> Actually, heres one: when will you guys get around to electing a wrestler for president?
[10:54:35] <TheMightyBuzzard> over hear they're pork that's been processed so thoroughly that it has absolutely no meaty texture left and the rubbery sludge that's left is formed into sausage shape somehow
[10:55:03] <TheMightyBuzzard> malloc_free, this year if one were running. be better than either choice we have.
[10:55:51] <malloc_free> Yeah, been reading about Hillary, she is practically satan
[10:55:55] <TheMightyBuzzard> you got a woman what's hands down the most criminal person to ever run for office or a loudmouthed jackass.
[10:56:46] <malloc_free> I saw that video where Trump was calling her out on the Bernie Sanders thing, and she was smiling like it was nothing.
[10:58:24] <TheMightyBuzzard> yup. or the multiple felonies found in the wikileaks dumps. or the email thing. or the bribing of the fbi deputy director to recommend against prosecuting for it. or the collusion with the department of justice prior to their decision not to prosecute.
[10:58:45] <TheMightyBuzzard> or the attempts at election rigging.
[10:59:06] <malloc_free> I saw this, seems to explain it well: https://www.youtube.com
[10:59:08] <exec> └─ 13Hillary Must Lose - YouTube
[10:59:39] <TheMightyBuzzard> which is to say nothing of the 40+ adversaries of the clintons that have turned up mysteriously dead by foul play over the years. five of them just this year.
[10:59:55] <malloc_free> woh that for real?
[11:00:40] <malloc_free> What will it take for the system to break and the people to mobalise?
[11:00:41] <TheMightyBuzzard> #g five dead in six weeks
[11:00:42] <MrPlow> https://www.sott.net - "Aug 5, 2016 ... Hillary will stop at nothing to claw her way into the White House; unfortunately, people are dropping dead left and right in her path and, in the ..."
[11:01:23] <TheMightyBuzzard> malloc_free, honestly i dunno. our media is talking about absolutely none of this so most people don't know and won't believe you when told.
[11:01:58] <TheMightyBuzzard> they actually run their stories by the clinton campaign before they print/air them according to the wikileaks emails.
[11:03:00] <TheMightyBuzzard> at this point, i'd prefer Putin. he's less corrupt.

[11:30:06] <boru> Really? Under what charges?
[11:31:41] <TheMightyBuzzard> old trumped up rape charges from like brussles or something. i forget exactly.
[11:32:43] <boru> Sheesh, transparent or what...
[11:32:53] <boru> I'm sure the timing is a total coincidence...
[11:33:58] <TheMightyBuzzard> you mean when the secretary of state is over in london where the embassy is?
[11:35:03] <boru> I wasn't aware. What are they supposed to be doing there?
[11:35:04] <TheMightyBuzzard> you won't hear anything of possible corruption from any of the news outlets with the possible exception of FNC
[11:35:41] <boru> Yeah, out of curiosity, I did have a cursory search around for analysis of the leaks, and none of the large media outlets in the US seemed to be carrying it.
[11:36:00] <boru> Says it all, really.
[11:36:49] <boru> Having lived in a country which went through a period like that, all I can say is that I know how you guys feel at the moment.
[11:37:22] <TheMightyBuzzard> boru, CNN is telling people it's illegal for them to even read them on wikileaks
[11:38:04] <boru> Yeah, I saw that. Abhorrent.

[11:49:10] <boru> Anyway, I sure hope that these incidents will ensure a good outcome for you US lot next month.
[11:50:06] <boru> (I might even reconsider the US as a possible destination, if that is the case)
[11:50:40] <TheMightyBuzzard> there's no chance of a good outcome. criminal or idiot?
[11:51:41] <boru> I'll take idiot over vindictive fascist any day.

[11:52:56] <TheMightyBuzzard> hell, ethanol-fueled would be preferable at this point
[11:53:08] <boru> Wouldn't work -- how would you list its policies?
[11:53:16] <cmn32480> I'm fairly sure that in the end, we are all gonna lose anyway
[11:53:33] <boru> <list >list ~list ?list (*^!&list policies
[11:54:42] <TheMightyBuzzard> boru, no policies. if the president doesn't sign a bill within a certain time period it's an automatic veto. which means nearly all of congress has to agree on something for it to pass.
[11:55:10] <boru> So, being written in PHP, everything will be vetoed. Sounds good to me!
[11:57:28] <TheMightyBuzzard> zactly. congress would be far better off either having to agree or doing nothing at all.
[11:57:56] <boru> I still stand by my position of replacing government legislative meetings with trial by combat.
[11:58:01] <TheMightyBuzzard> we should give them each a pay bonus for each law they repeal
[11:58:06] <boru> Want to read my emails? Face me in the pit.
[11:58:11] <TheMightyBuzzard> and dock them for each one they pass
[11:58:29] <boru> Trebuchet them into the ocean for each one they pass.

[12:00:12] <cmn32480> one issue with the trebuchet
[12:00:31] <cmn32480> tossing them into the ocean woudl be a rather egregious form of pollution, don't you think?
[12:00:48] <TheMightyBuzzard> as slimy as they are, yup
[12:00:48] <boru> Yes, on second thought, it is ecologically unsound.

[12:31:11] <weeds> I think you go tthe worst o that one!
[12:31:50] <malloc_free> re: racism lecture: I am sure there is some irony in that statement. Not sure tho'
[12:32:14] <chromas> intersectional feminists/SJWs don't understand irony
[12:32:40] <TheMightyBuzzard> newp, zero irony. they really believe and preach that.
[12:33:04] <boru> Not that I am a psychologist, but I think these sort of insidious influences are going to result in the opposite of what they are aiming to achieve.
[12:33:42] <TheMightyBuzzard> boru, they're aiming to achieve racial divide and tension. so they stay relevant and don't have to get real jobs.
[12:33:58] <boru> Heh, yeah, I believe the job relevance part, alright.
[12:34:34] <TheMightyBuzzard> plus, if they're not oppressed, there's no reason to vote democrat
[12:34:44] <malloc_free> I think I meant more that the statement happens to also be blatantly/patiently racist
[12:34:50] <chromas> she could have spoke up in class though
[12:35:00] <weeds> ya know themightybuzzard, I think there is a lot of truth to that. WHnever there is a "black vs white" incident, these people come crwling out of the woodwork playing the racism card and jackig it up to the max.
[12:35:02] <chromas> she's female so she's automatically more oppressed than he is
[12:35:06] <boru> Aye, shame they'll never actually experience oppression.
[12:35:06] <TheMightyBuzzard> malloc_free, ya. they unfortunately either can't see or don't care about that.
[12:35:20] <TheMightyBuzzard> weeds, troof

[12:38:26] <malloc_free> I think it is (possibly) true that all people have some sort of prejudice, but it is up to the individual as to how they deal with it.
[12:38:59] <chromas> There's nothing wrong with a little prejudice
[12:39:31] * chromas shakes fist at all orange cats
[12:39:45] <TheMightyBuzzard> i prefer to give everyone an equal chance to not be an asshole before i assume they're worth the oxygen they're breathing.
[12:39:46] <malloc_free> ok yeah
[12:39:58] <TheMightyBuzzard> but i'm still not walking through compton unarmed.
[12:40:12] <weeds> chromas: where's that?
[12:40:42] <malloc_free> arn't all orange cats male or something? Is that sexism, by proxy?
[12:41:38] <boru> By extension, you are precluding the colour blind from participating.
[12:42:00] <boru> Consequently, does feline consciousness know that it is a cat?
[12:42:17] <boru> 'Cat' is a human classification, you bigot.
[12:42:43] <boru> I am offending on behalf of all human classified feline quadrupeds.
[12:43:04] <boru> (That's more or less how I see a lot of these groups' claims)
[12:43:17] <boru> Spending their lives offending on behalf of everyone else.

[12:47:59] <boru> There's a very good reason that I try to avoid current affairs and socio-political stuff in general.
[12:48:28] <TheMightyBuzzard> chromas, still diablo 3. haven't bothered to get forza horizon 3 yet.
[12:52:07] <malloc_free> tmb, only just got D3 the other day. Found it *incredibly* easy. Like I just cake-walked it with a Barbarian, barely got below 50% health. Then completed it on master and it was pretty much the same.
[12:52:33] <malloc_free> I recall having some rage-quit moments with D2
[12:53:03] <TheMightyBuzzard> malloc_free, yeah, you gotta kick it up into the really high difficulties before you start dying.
[12:53:09] <chromas> You can skip like 5 difficulty levels at a time too
[12:53:14] <TheMightyBuzzard> yup
[12:54:18] <TheMightyBuzzard> i'm playing at like Torment 8 at the moment, though i could go a level or two harder if i really wanted to spend half an hour per rift.
[12:54:35] <malloc_free> ok cool it was not just me. TBH I found some powers that worked, and it was just clickety click and no real 'o fuck health plz' moments. Will have to kick it up a notch then.

[13:16:39] <FatPhil> is that some new-fangled stuff that's not on my lawn?
[13:17:01] <cmn32480> Simple Authentication and Security Layer (SASL) is a framework for authentication and data security in Internet protocols. It decouples authentication mechanisms from application protocols, in theory allowing any authentication mechanism supported by SASL to be used in any application protocol that uses SASL.

[13:23:02] <chromas> We're using the same server/services as freenode (though possibly a different version)

[23:01:59] <Deucalion> I have no idea what criteria they use, just answer the Qs honestly and see where the dice fall. Not that I have ever appied for any kind of clearances - I am channeling something I saw on YouTube
[23:02:08] <Bytram> put out a bowl of beer surrounded by little fences that they can climb over, but only when sober?
[23:02:23] <cmn32480> better them moles in your yard than the one on your gir's nose
[23:02:48] <TheMightyBuzzard> cmn32480, cheaper than seeing a doctor about it
[23:02:55] <TheMightyBuzzard> smoke break
[23:02:55] <TheMightyBuzzard> nicotine++
[23:02:55] <Bender> karma - nicotine: 173
[23:02:59] <cmn32480> unless you miss
[23:03:04] <boru> Quite.
[23:03:14] <Bytram> maybe see doctor doolittle
[23:03:33] <Deucalion> You all sound a little hoarse to me
[23:04:00] <cmn32480> your attitude can't cow me!
[23:04:08] <boru> Here we go.
[23:04:21] <Bytram> where are we going?
[23:04:27] <boru> To Puntown.
[23:04:32] <khallow> like shooting a barrel of fish
[23:04:54] <boru> Sounds like a load of bull to me.
[23:05:01] <cmn32480> well sure.. the barrel is the target in that instance, not the fish
[23:05:15] <cmn32480> they jsut suffocate after the water leaks out from the bullet holes!
[23:05:21] <boru> I do not have any cooperage puns.
[23:05:43] <cmn32480> we cna barrel donw that road and see where we land
[23:05:47] <Bytram> ever read Godel Escher Bach, by Douglas Hoofsteader?
[23:05:55] <cmn32480> it's a big cask, but we can handle it
[23:06:05] <khallow> a little, but I got better
[23:06:10] <boru> You seem to have them on tap.
[23:07:29] <boru> 40091c: 48 c7 44 24 50 08 00 movq $0x8,0x50(%rsp)
[23:07:36] <boru> Erf, ENOTTY.
[23:09:00] <Bytram> break time... biab
[23:09:21] <khallow> funny how I'm not the only one expressing doubt about a "cancer moonshot"
[23:09:40] <TheMightyBuzzard> fish? where?
[23:10:22] <khallow> in the barrel take a shot
[23:10:24] <boru> Do you fish fresh water or salt water?
[23:10:48] <khallow> in Tennessee fresh
[23:10:55] <TheMightyBuzzard> yar. no oceans handy.
[23:10:57] <boru> Ah, Tennessee, right.
[23:11:27] <khallow> You aren't running your SUV hard enough for salt water fishing
[23:11:27] <TheMightyBuzzard> really though i prefer fresh. less effort needed to get your fishing on.
[23:11:49] <boru> What do you fish for around there?
[23:11:55] <TheMightyBuzzard> SUV? i drive an `01 toyota echo.
[23:11:59] <cmn32480> i.e. - his boat ain't big enough, and the ocean is too far away
[23:12:19] <TheMightyBuzzard> catfish when i'm in a lazy mood. crappie when i'm not.
[23:13:10] <boru> I'd like to fish some parts of the US, some day.
[23:13:14] <Deucalion> TheMightyBuzzard, can glide the thermals to the ocean and fish yellowfin to order...
[23:13:27] <TheMightyBuzzard> tuna... blerg
[23:13:33] <boru> We fished salmon and trout in fresh water back at home.
[23:13:48] <boru> I'd like to head up to Alaska to fish salmon, at some point.
[23:14:26] <TheMightyBuzzard> oh man are you in for a treat then. crappie are way, way better than trout or salmon. light, exceedingly flaky, hardly a fish taste to them.
[23:14:30] <Deucalion> I'd like to head up to Alaska to see Russia just over t he tiny sea
[23:14:56] <boru> I've been to Kamchatka. The fishing there is pretty good, too.
[23:15:10] <boru> I went climbing volcanoes there, about a decade ago.
[23:15:24] * TheMightyBuzzard ponders becoming a russian
[23:16:17] <boru> I like fish taste -- smoked mackerel is amongst my favourite.
[23:16:27] <khallow> I'd like to see the geyser fields there
[23:16:34] <khallow> sounds like they are incredibly remote
[23:16:40] <boru> Aye, they are.
[23:17:16] <boru> Siberia is beautiful, if you like that endless bleak landscape.
[23:17:19] <Deucalion> Peppered Smoked Mackerel + pickled onions + brown bread.... noice
[23:17:32] <boru> Arctic sea islands, too.
[23:17:51] <boru> Now you're talking. A good dense brown soda bread.
[23:17:53] <cmn32480> yay! wife is home w/ dinner! woot woot!
[23:17:58] <TheMightyBuzzard> i am surprisingly not a fish taste fan.
[23:18:19] <TheMightyBuzzard> plus trout can kiss my ass. they're entirely too picky about what they'll bite.
[23:18:36] <Deucalion> TheMightyBuzzard, so you keep saying. Don't eat fish at all right?
[23:18:58] <boru> You spin, I take it?
[23:19:06] <TheMightyBuzzard> Deucalion, used to not. decided i'd go ahead and start eating them when i got to TN though.
[23:19:37] <TheMightyBuzzard> boru, have. fly is entirely too expensive to get all set up.
[23:19:38] <khallow> I love fish including sushi. Though good sushi doesn't have a strong fish taste
[23:19:45] <boru> Try a salmon steak on a barbecue. It's good eating.
[23:19:55] <boru> Ah, fair enough.
[23:20:06] <khallow> salmonsteak++
[23:20:06] <Bender> karma - salmonsteak: 1
[23:20:07] <boru> It's not so bad on this side of the pond.
[23:20:26] <TheMightyBuzzard> have a proper smoker outside. could smoke fish but i also have deep fryer.
[23:20:35] <khallow> last time I had one was with a brown sugar glaze
[23:20:41] -!- mechanicjay has quit [Quit: Leaving.]
[23:21:20] <boru> Do you get much game around Tennessee?
[23:21:26] <Deucalion> Rainbow trout take spinners even in winter.
[23:21:42] <Deucalion> Isn't TN all swamp?
[23:21:54] <TheMightyBuzzard> Deucalion, yeah. they don't bite on spinners for shit compared to flies though.
[23:22:03] <boru> You'll get waterfowl in swamp, right?
[23:22:15] <boru> I know SFA about Tennessee, I must admit.
[23:22:18] <TheMightyBuzzard> plenty of game, yeah. bunch of turkeys, geese, ducks, deer, etc...
[23:22:36] <boru> Do you hunt, or just fish?
[23:23:09] <TheMightyBuzzard> just fish. not for any moral reason. hunting's just more work.
[23:23:15] <boru> Fair enough.
[23:23:23] <boru> With a good dog, there's not much work to ducks.
[23:23:31] <TheMightyBuzzard> plus i don't really dig gamey meat
[23:23:56] * boru nods.
[23:23:58] <TheMightyBuzzard> doves and quail i dig on but that's a LOT of walking.
[23:24:14] <boru> I grew up on game and fowl, grew everything at home.
[23:24:19] <boru> Fish, too.
[23:24:31] <boru> Aye. Pigeons?
[23:24:46] <Deucalion> lol /me imagines what would happen if he wandered the local lands with a gun taking out turkeys, geese, ducks, grouse... it would not end well... well I'd be calmly arrested by unarmed officers not shot dead on the spot. But yeh... UK... can't hunt, can't roam. I guess we all have our crosses to bear.
[23:24:48] <TheMightyBuzzard> bout the same as doves but not as tasty.
[23:25:01] <TheMightyBuzzard> pigeons are sky rats around the US
[23:25:03] <boru> You can hunt in the UK.
[23:25:17] <boru> I hunt in the UK, but not locally.
[23:25:38] <boru> Not out in the woods, really. Near towns and cities, though, for certain.
[23:25:51] <Deucalion> Air rifle taking out rats?
[23:26:01] <boru> No, deer and waterfowl.
[23:26:12] <Deucalion> royal parks?
[23:26:31] <boru> Some state herds, yeah, but wild herds up North, too.
[23:26:33] <Deucalion> The deer cull there used to be a thing
[23:26:45] <boru> I have some family here with culling licences.
[23:27:15] <boru> Culling ensures the survival of the state herds, so they encourage culling licences.
[23:27:21] <boru> Same in .ie
[23:28:13] <boru> It's been surprising easy transporting some of my toys from back home to here.
[23:28:37] <Deucalion> That's what I was alluding to... it's al licensed... not free roam, just hunt. Not that it would make any sense to have hunters blasting off all over the place in the UK... you're never more than a mile from population here so it needs to be contained.
[23:28:40] <boru> It's more or less the same as home; heavier calibres just need a bit more paperwork.
[23:29:01] <boru> But I've bought over my .308, .30-06 and .223, and a few shotguns as well.
[23:29:25] <boru> Yeah, there are typically limits within urban areas.
[23:29:31] <boru> Certain distance from main roads etc.
[23:30:20] <boru> Where I'm living at the moment, however, you just have to mention guns and people get all hissy about it.
[23:30:32] <Deucalion> My local rifle club restricts to .22 - target only, once per week, with seconds to join the club lol
[23:30:53] <boru> Sheesh.
[23:31:05] <boru> .22 is fine for plinking, but once a week? Wtf...
[23:31:21] <Deucalion> They have o allow time for the air gun ppl
[23:31:39] <boru> Back in Ireland, it's just eye rolling -- "Another 1000 rounds? If you must..."
[23:31:43] <TheMightyBuzzard> boru, same here really. you can't fire within a certain distance of the road. you can hunt on any land you can get permission from the owner for though.
[23:31:53] <boru> Aye, same.
[23:32:17] <Deucalion> To be fair, there's not much you'd be needing anything but a target plinker in these parts... all the wild life left other than me **RAWRR**
[23:32:37] <boru> People are fairly respectful with farmers where I'm from; if there's live stock in the field, or the one next door, don't be an eejit.
[23:32:46] * boru chuckles
[23:32:47] <TheMightyBuzzard> outside town, mind you. cops tend to take a dim view of discharging firearms within city limits unless there's someone there that really needed shooting.
[23:33:04] <boru> There's always someone that needs shooting.
[23:33:18] * Deucalion looks concerned
[23:33:18] <TheMightyBuzzard> yeah but there isn't a Politician Season
[23:33:37] <Deucalion> ~weather
[23:33:39] <exec> 10London, UK - currently 49°F / 9°C, clear with periodic clouds, wind W at 12 mph, humidity 74% - Tuesday partly cloudy (47°F:56°F / 8°C:13°C), Wednesday partly cloudy (49°F:59°F / 9°C:15°C), Thursday mostly cloudy (45°F:58°F / 7°C:14°C), Friday mostly cloudy (43°F:58°F / 6°C:14°C)
[23:33:46] <boru> Jehovah's Witnesses, door-to-door salesmen, political campaigners...
[23:34:07] * TheMightyBuzzard envisions a world where you could go to wal-mart and pick up three house member tags and one senator tag every year.
[23:34:12] <Deucalion> Fuck off before bullet to the head surely?
[23:34:26] <boru> Dead on.
[23:34:46] <Deucalion> I never miss
[23:34:51] <boru> "Do you have a moment to speak about--" "How's your 500m sprint?"
[23:34:54] * Deucalion goes to bed
[23:35:10] <TheMightyBuzzard> aight, time to get my dinner cooking on
[23:35:15] <TheMightyBuzzard> back later
[23:35:31] <boru> Right oh. I suppose I'd should get my arse off to bed anyway.
[23:35:45] * Bytram returns only to find the house has emptied.
[23:36:06] * Bytram checks his deodorant
[23:39:00] * cmn32480 enters wearing a gas mask... nods at bytram and passes out dead
[23:39:24] * Bytram offers some amonium salts
[23:39:40] * cmn32480 crawls back to the kitchen to eat
[23:42:25] * Deucalion offers Bytam a PM for no reason
[23:43:14] * Deucalion offers Bytram a PM for no reason - and learns to type
[23:43:19] <Bytram> lol
[23:44:06] * Bytram accepts
