[19:36:14] <Bender> [SoylentNews] - BuzzFeed Obtains Leaked Breitbart Emails - http://sylnt.us - killing-machine-marginalia
[19:41:39] <chromas> Buzzfeed—Your 11 sources for excellence in journalism. Number 2 will raep your soul
[20:03:13] <SoyGuest42136> don't faer the raeper
[20:05:29] * chromas is reminded of No Fear shirts & stickers
[20:09:20] <SoyGuest42136> don't think I've seen any
[20:11:08] <chromas> It was in the 90s.
[20:14:53] <TheMightyBuzzard> those amused me. being the wiseass i am, i always mentally pronounced "fear" as rhyming with "bear".
[20:16:55] <SoyGuest42136> Many Finns and Estonians have great trouble distinguishing "beer" and "bear"
[20:17:12] <TheMightyBuzzard> just so long as they know which to stick in their mouth
[20:17:40] <SoyGuest42136> phonetic pronounciation of b-e-e-r is how english speakers say bear
[20:17:44] <chromas> Some bears go in the mouth.
[20:17:48] <TheMightyBuzzard> one's cool and refreshing, the other's darwinistic bestiality.
[20:18:22] <chromas> Silly English and their weird pronunciations of English
[20:18:48] <TheMightyBuzzard> ya. we had to kick their asses twice just so we could pronounce our Hs correctly
[20:18:57] <SoyGuest42136> yeah, I feel a bit guilty sometimes
[20:19:21] <SoyGuest42136> that was to chromas, not Buzz Fighyear ;)
[20:19:24] <SoyGuest42136> +T
[20:19:55] <TheMightyBuzzard> that's Lightbeer, tyvm
[20:20:04] <SoyGuest42136> cheers
[20:20:06] <chromas> Bud Light beer. Oh noes! Disney promotes 'beer' to teh childrens!!!
[20:20:15] <SoyGuest42136> nd American Stout
[20:20:31] * TheMightyBuzzard prefers American Maid
[20:20:38] <TheMightyBuzzard> #g american maid
[20:20:39] <MrPlow> http://tick.wikia.com - "This page uses content from Wikipedia. The original article was at American Maid. The list of authors can be seen in the page history. As with The Tick Wiki, the ..."
[20:21:05] <boru> What are American stouts like? Sweet?
[20:21:31] <boru> I can't even stand those milk stouts, let alone anything made with chocolate hops.
[20:21:38] <boru> Far too sweet.
[20:22:03] <TheMightyBuzzard> chocolate belongs nowhere near beer. not even in name only.
[20:22:18] <SoyGuest42136> milk stouts have lactose that doesn't ferment, that's why they're sweet
[20:22:20] <boru> tmb++
[20:22:20] <Bender> karma - tmb: 10
[20:23:03] <SoyGuest42136> I do like chocolate malts, but they're not the malts that add the sweetness. caramalts are the sweet ones.
[20:23:11] <TheMightyBuzzard> honestly, i dunno. sam adams makes a passable stout if you like sam adams. but it has the exact same taste as the rest of their beers, if you know what i mean.
[20:23:32] <boru> I like bitter/malty stouts and porters.
[20:23:49] <TheMightyBuzzard> same same. it needs to be about the malt not the hopps.
[20:24:14] <boru> I like a good red ale, as well, but again, not sweet.
[20:24:23] <boru> That said, I am invariably a whiskey man.
[20:24:30] <SoyGuest42136> red ales tend to have a lot of caramalt
[20:25:10] <boru> Not much where I come from, that I know; they're just not very sweet.
[20:25:18] <SoyGuest42136> We said farewell to a signature vintage 2013 caol isla last night. that was a great whisky
[20:25:53] <boru> Great and scotch in the same sentence?
[20:26:04] <TheMightyBuzzard> i like me a good copper colored ale or a black as sin porter. pilsners after hot, sweaty work.
[20:26:05] <SoyGuest42136> the receipt was still in the tin. 23e from stansted airport for a 700ml
[20:26:26] <SoyGuest42136> not e, pound
[20:26:31] * boru nods.
[20:26:51] <boru> I'd say that the only scotches I'll drink are highlands and speys, though I don't know many of them. I drink Irish.
[20:27:14] <boru> Aberlour Abunadh is a decent bottle; it doesn't taste cask strength.
[20:27:27] <SoyGuest42136> Connamara I do like, the rest are too vanillaey for me generally.
[20:27:47] <SoyGuest42136> Abunadh can be great - he've had only 3 of them, but all were good.
[20:28:11] <boru> I've not drank an Irish whiskey that tasted like vanilla. Which ones?
[20:28:17] <TheMightyBuzzard> as much as i approve the turn this conversation has taken, i didn't get my nap yet today. back later.
[20:28:29] <SoyGuest42136> Jamesons, and all its relatives (Red Breast, etc.)
[20:28:57] <boru> Which Redbreast? Not one of the SPS, surely?
[20:29:39] <boru> I'm partial to Redbreast and Bushmills; I like a port finish 16 in the latter, and an all sherry finish in the former, say the 12 or the LE.
[20:29:50] <boru> Catch you later, tmb.
[20:30:19] <SoyGuest42136> backj in my day, there was only one Red Breast!
[20:30:45] <boru> When was that? 1800s?
[20:31:30] <boru> Wait, are you FatPhil?
[20:31:49] <boru> You are, you snake.

[20:33:02] <FatPhil> Old enough to have pretty much forgotten how old I actually am
[20:33:30] <chromas> Next poll should be beer-related
[20:34:01] <boru> Might as well do editors or WMs.
[20:34:51] <boru> On an unrelated note, I did pick up a new NAS for my new place, and the stock firmware is a colossal pile of shite.
[20:35:33] <boru> It's QNAP, but I've typically installed BSD on them, but haven't gotten around to it on this one, just yet. How truly awful you must be to write software this bad...
[20:37:03] <FatPhil> they write very little, I'm sure, it's just bundled.
[20:37:13] <FatPhil> I guess their init scripts are crap though.
[20:37:38] <boru> No idea, but I think I'll nuke their OS crap and install BSD.
[20:39:26] <FatPhil> does BSD work well under load now? it used to suffer from bad big-Ohs in its queuing algorithms
[20:40:14] <boru> I haven't run into such issues in ~10 years, but I suppose I don't give it enough work for that, typically.
[20:45:18] <FatPhil> Right, time to catch up on the news...
