[01:35:48] <TheMightyBuzzard> nah, i was watching a cam and still feel i'm owed money
[01:35:53] <SirFinkus> “Ignorance is king. Many would not profit by his abdication. Many enrich themselves by means of his dark monarchy. They are his Court, and in his name they defraud and govern, enrich themselves and perpetuate their power. Even literacy they fear, for the written word is another channel of communication that might cause their enemies to become united. Their weapons are keenhoned
[01:35:53] <SirFinkus> , and they use them with skill. They will press the battle upon the world when their interests are threatened, and the violence which follows will last until the structure of society as it now exists is leveled to rubble, and a new society emerges.”

[11:50:38] <crutchy> i can't get over how you guys don't seem to have proper fences between houses
[11:50:45] <crutchy> see that in a few places in the US
[11:51:15] <crutchy> maybe aussies are just more antisocial
[11:54:34] <TheMightyBuzzard> well we have a 12' ditch to the west, a street to the east, and a proper fence along the north.
[11:55:04] <TheMightyBuzzard> but yeah, lot of folks don't have fences at all. despite good ones making good neighbors.
[11:55:36] <chromas> You get to share your outdoor nudity with the neighbors
[11:56:22] <TheMightyBuzzard> i'm giving like that. just as long as they don't share back. the youngest one of them is 50+ and she's about 100lbs overweight and has a lazy eye.
[11:56:38] <crutchy> maybe the government subsidised fence palings at some point here
[11:57:52] <TheMightyBuzzard> actually, that wouldn't be a bad idea here either. make folks what's on unemployment put in four hours a day five days a week building fences. ditto welfare bitches.
[11:58:52] <TheMightyBuzzard> it'd do wonders for the housing market too, which frankly needs some help badly.
[11:59:47] <crutchy> here it seems to be a requirement
[11:59:55] <crutchy> and each neighbour pays half
[11:59:56] <TheMightyBuzzard> my buddy's $80K home that he bought 9 years ago isn't selling at $60K
[12:00:56] <crutchy> even in regional areas here you won't get even a fixer upper for under $150k (aussie)
[12:01:13] <TheMightyBuzzard> ahh, see we build our own fences JUST on our side of the property line. that way we can put up any kind we want and don't have to argue about whose turn it is to paint it or fix it.
[12:01:33] <TheMightyBuzzard> sucks for you lot
[12:01:43] <crutchy> i thinks thats why most people go for palings. they're cheap
[12:02:10] <crutchy> newer developments often have colorbond steel fendes
[12:02:15] <crutchy> *fences
[12:02:28] <TheMightyBuzzard> most folks here go for chain link. i prefer good old 6' 1x8 privacy fences
[12:02:48] <TheMightyBuzzard> or concertina wire. depends on the neighbors.
[12:03:35] <crutchy> here 5ft or 7ft palings is standard
[12:04:37] <TheMightyBuzzard> nod nod. that'd get called a privacy fence here but you only really see them in suburbs that are entirely too swanky.
[12:05:29] <crutchy> only places you dont see them is farms, where barbed wire rules
[12:05:43] <crutchy> (or hotwires)
[12:05:50] <TheMightyBuzzard> https://goo.gl is mostly what you have in non-ritzy neighborhoods because it'll hold a dog in and keep neighbors out and it's cheap.

[16:49:00] <boru> Deucalion; I was poking fun at 'nan' instead of 'naan'.
[16:49:09] <boru> As in grandmother pieces instead of the bread.
[16:49:35] <khallow> not bad here
[16:50:15] <janrinok> boru, and I've just finished eating my curry, with a naan too
[16:50:47] <boru> What sort of curry? I'm pretty partial to a good black pepper phal/vindaloo, myself.
[16:50:52] <Deucalion> oopsie my bad. Although to be fair it's spelt both ways depending on the restaurant / takeaway. Mebbe goat curry is in fact nan curry :/
[16:51:05] <boru> Phal is like vindaloo++. Good eating.
[16:51:26] <boru> Also a southern Indian dish, iirc.
[16:51:35] <janrinok> jalfrezi
[16:51:49] <Deucalion> Proper vindaloo with potatoes or just something with that name that's had a metric tonne of chilli powder tipped in

Kills the shit out of WD spinning rust disks that try to spin down to save power - they are forever spinning up and down because the journalling process keeps waking them up every few seconds
[16:59:17] <Deucalion> janrinok, I live a few miles west of Slough... big Sikh community there, so lots of useful shops for spices and associated fresh herbs and veg. Happy to procure for you if you like. Probably just have to be spices though - not sure on the rules about shipping fresh produce from the little island to mainland europe :)
[17:02:42] <janrinok> Deucalion, that's a very kind offer, thanks. My parents in law are coming over in about a month and they have a shopping list that should see me through the next 3 -4 months. but I might be asking for a favour early next year sometime.
[17:03:55] <boru> Slough's in the M4 corridoor, right?
[17:06:26] <Deucalion> boru, yes. About 5 miles west of the M25 on the M4. I live a few miles more west of that - but regularly visit for the varied supermarkets thereabouts. Beats the hell out of Tesco and Sainsburys :)
[17:07:03] <boru> Heh, I'd say so.
[17:07:16] <boru> I was looking at gigs down around that direction before the brexit shite.
[17:07:33] <Deucalion> janrinok, just let me know and I'll be happy to go shopping.
[17:08:05] <boru> Nearly ended up in Farnborough/Guildford, too.
[17:08:22] <janrinok> Deucalion, much obliged
[17:09:26] <Deucalion> boru, yup - lot's of IT / Tech in the M4/M3 triangle - Maidenhead, Reading, Winnersh, Bracknell yada yada... commutes a bitch unless you locate your living space such that you commute against the flow of traffic into the shit hole capital city on the M4
[17:09:46] <boru> Aye, I'd say so.
[17:10:16] <boru> I didn't really want to relocate there; I've set my sights abroad again, now, anyway.
[17:10:25] <Deucalion> Basically.. live east of where you work, commute west and it's fine. T'other way around... fucking nightmare as the M4 snarls up eastbound every morning
[17:10:28] <boru> The work was interesting, but not much else to do down there.
[17:10:36] <boru> I can well imagine.
[17:10:51] <Deucalion> boru, property is stupidly expensive too - rent or buy.
[17:10:57] <boru> I'd probably commute on horseback, mace of reckoning in hand.
[17:11:02] <Deucalion> lol
[17:11:11] <boru> Aye, anywhere near London is a bit mental, alright. Cambridge is bad enough.
[17:12:57] <boru> I'm off to Germany or Switzerland, next. Depends on how the legislative decision goes in .ch in the next six months.
[17:13:03] <boru> Austria at a push.
[17:13:17] <Deucalion> It's also pretty excessively conservative (both lower and upper C) any place you'd likely want to live round these parts... twitchy curtains and conformity is the norm :/
[17:13:26] <boru> Finally, hunting with Steyr AUG...
[17:13:55] <boru> Feh, I dislike nosey people.
[17:15:05] <Deucalion> Berlin had me interested for a time - but then I investigated past the sheen and into the day to day stuff... yah, not for me - too many regs, sub regs and sub sub sub regs on pretty much everything.
[17:15:30] <boru> I've heard .ch is like that, but I don't think I'd mind. I like to live rurally.
[17:16:09] <boru> In .de, I'll head for Munich, perhaps Darmstadt/surrounds or Stuttgart/surrounds at a push.
[17:16:10] <janrinok> boru, can you work from home or do you have to be in a certain place?
[17:16:20] <boru> Lots of work in Hamburg, but I don't really like Hamburg...
[17:16:22] <Deucalion> From what I hear Switzerland is even worse in that regard. Oooh - and they're xenophobic too - hence why a lot of people commute into .ch
[17:16:34] <boru> I generally need to be hands on in my line of work.
[17:16:46] <janrinok> k
[17:16:46] <Deucalion> Stuttgart is really nice... but again uber-conservative
[17:16:58] <boru> Yeah, this new immigration legislation is really going to curtail moving to .ch from the EU.
[17:17:11] <Deucalion> It was never easy
[17:17:16] <boru> The Swiss-first for jobs things is already tough enough.
[17:17:19] <boru> Aye, indeed.
[17:17:29] <Deucalion> Bunch of bankers :D
[17:17:30] <boru> It'll be next to impossible if the EU sign off on it.
[17:17:34] <boru> Heh, quite.
[17:18:00] * Deucalion waits for some UK politico to suggest filling the channel tunnel with concrete :D
[17:18:44] <boru> Well, I don't mind a bit better vetting of people entering country X -- the EU needs that in general. However, Theresa May is a fascist, and an enemy of free speech/human rights.
[17:19:35] <Deucalion> I need to read up how the dismemberment of the Calais jungle went this week.... been too busy to stay abreast.
[17:19:44] <janrinok> come on boru, don't sit on the fence, what do your really think of her?
[17:19:50] <boru> It'll be rebuilt in a month or two, don't worry.
[17:20:39] <janrinok> The French are claiming it as a huge victory for them, doing what the UK was 'unable or unprepared' to do, they seem to have forgotten that we have paid for it.
[17:20:41] <boru> Well, I could tell you what I really think of her, but I'd probably be abducted by MI6 and brought to a secret GCHQ torture centre.
[17:21:33] <janrinok> The camp in pretty much destroyed, but over 100 'children' are now unaccounted for. The French only get paid if they keep the camp closed, so for the next 6 months or so I suspect that they will do that.
[17:22:24] <Deucalion> As Home Sec she was scary. As PM.... actually not that bad a choice to hard nose the Brexit deals... she's not a pushover when it comes to negotiations... can't think of any better tory to lead that really. Unless you'd want Cameron and Gove attempting to do it...... my fucking god, the thought gives me palpitations

[17:23:32] <janrinok> I think that as soon as EU laws are not paramount, you will have all the monitoring that she once advocated in her previous role.
[17:23:42] <boru> Perhaps they'll stir up tensions in Northern Ireland, again.
[17:23:59] <boru> Got to give up those liberties to keep the Irish suppressed!

[17:30:57] * Deucalion has finished sanitising the work laptop..... something about spending a few days behind the line of fast food restaurants dicking with their systems leaves a decidedly sticky / slippery feel to anything that's been exposed. Had to de-grease all my tools too ~bloik~
[17:32:12] <AndyTheAbsurd> Deucalion: yuck. bad environment for computers.
[17:34:11] <Deucalion> AndyTheAbsurd, most of the stuff I had to deal with was mounted on brackets above deep fat fryers.... there's a reason we specify passive cooling for those devices. The outsides may be caked but the innards stay ~relatively~ OK.... for a rather stretched definition of ~relatively~
[17:35:06] <AndyTheAbsurd> I worked at a fast food place as a teenager
[17:35:09] <Deucalion> On a positive note... my ratchet drivers are feeling particularly smooth :/
[17:35:17] <AndyTheAbsurd> came home covered in grease every night
[17:36:26] <AndyTheAbsurd> this was back when we had digital timers with big red 7-segment displays for the vats and the closest things to "computers" in the building were the register and the adding machine in the office.
[17:36:41] <Deucalion> All my work gear is currently in the washer on a boil cycle.... that stale fat smell is hard to shift. It's just in the air once you get back there.
[17:37:18] <Deucalion> The fryer timer displays haven't changed much then, other than they have a bit more intelligence and allow the oper to easily select what they are frying
[17:38:41] <Deucalion> They have some interesting predictive systems now... that analyse order patterns over days, weeks and months - then play into the cook cycles to make sure enough is cooked and ready, but not too much.

[18:15:44] <janrinok> well, I'm not so sure. This is being treated as 'Breaking News' on the BBC, so something new has happened in the last few hours or so
[18:16:10] <AndyTheAbsurd> Yeah well
[18:16:16] <janrinok> It is not the Reps themselves, this is an announcement from the FBI
[18:16:31] <janrinok> although I'm sure the Reps are loving it
[18:16:38] <AndyTheAbsurd> If you've followed the news around the FBI and specifically Comey, it's pretty clear he's in someone's pocket.
[18:17:36] <khallow> Obama is his boss. I'd look there first, Andy
[18:18:02] <AndyTheAbsurd> he's one of the guys that keeps pushing to legislate into existence a form of encryption that can be suborned by law enforcement but not by criminal - despite the fact that such a thing is a mathematical impossibility.
[18:18:48] <janrinok> don't confuse the politicians by telling them facts!
[18:19:13] <mechanicjay> Ah! The actual letter Comey sent to Congress:
[18:19:15] <mechanicjay> https://thinkprogress.org
[18:22:02] <janrinok> I'm trying to work out what has triggered the BBC, as this letter doesn't say very much to justify a Breaking News story that is 'currently developing'
[18:22:54] <janrinok> The news at 2000 local said nothing, but at 2004 the story suddenly got pushed to the front
[18:23:55] <khallow> Well, one obvious point here is why is there still emails popping up?
[18:24:24] <janrinok> they were discovere during the investigation of 'an unrelated case'
[18:24:30] <mechanicjay> janrinok: The behind-the-scenes machinations going on must be something to behold.
[18:24:35] <janrinok> yep
[18:26:51] <khallow> well, just at a glance, there's a strong possibility of a case of withholding evidence.
[18:27:03] <Deucalion> Ye gads when will this pantomime be over. Can we bring the vote forward?
[18:27:54] <janrinok> lets go back 12 months and start again with different candidates

[18:28:54] <mechanicjay> AndyTheAbsurd: I never understood how she pulled that one off.
[18:29:20] <khallow> Her husband was president
[18:29:26] <Deucalion> Good luck with that janrinok - in 2 party, populist byte-speak, money to campaign 'murica :D
[18:29:29] <AndyTheAbsurd> I didn't either... IIRC, she either didn't or only just barely had enough residency time to qualify to be on the ballot.
[18:29:32] <khallow> Apparently some politicians in New York stay bought
[18:30:17] <mechanicjay> AndyTheAbsurd: that sounds about right, and Bill setup his office in Harlem, you know to show how black he was.

[18:32:38] <janrinok> If HRC does become Pres, can she pardon herself for her past crimes?
[18:33:16] <mechanicjay> janrinok: I don't think so -- Nixon wasn't able to...
[18:33:31] <mechanicjay> though if she does it before impeachment...
[18:33:40] <khallow> She can pardon anyone who is a witness
[18:33:49] <khallow> or coconspirator
[18:34:05] <khallow> But that would be rather overt
[18:34:41] <janrinok> BBC are _still_ going on...
[18:34:47] <khallow> unless pardons can be classified...
[18:35:11] <janrinok> keeping classified things hidden isn't really HRC's strong suit

[18:37:37] <mechanicjay> After giving this much though over the last number of months, here's my conclusion on the Clintons.
[18:38:22] <mechanicjay> They cover-up EVERYTHING, even the completely innocuous who-gives-a-shit stuff. Some say it's because their petrified of "bad-press", but it's just as easy to see a more insidious motive.
[18:38:56] <mechanicjay> Lots of the cover-up shit with them has proven to be completely nothing -- in that the cover-up was the crime, because there was nothing there to worry about.

[18:40:17] <mechanicjay> This gives them cover for "Oh it's a conspiracy against us, look it's never anything!" But it leads to a general feeling of dishonesty about them -- if it wasn't anything why did you feel the need to hide it?
[18:40:42] <mechanicjay> It also leads any reasonable person to ask, "Okay, what the hell are they actually hiding?"
[18:46:29] <mechanicjay> maybe I'm wrong about that last part, as a whole lot of folks seem to not care.
