[00:15:41] <Sulla> Wow so racist and biased
[00:15:44] <Sulla> How could you
[00:15:52] <Sulla> We must steal from the wealthy and fund the unwealthy
[00:16:18] <Sulla> We should take 90% of every american, european, and japanese persons salaries and distribute to africa, china, and india
[00:16:30] <Sulla> Cant let these wealthy skate by
[00:35:31] <chromas> Sending them all our money'd still be better than importing them.

[05:47:24] <TheMightyBuzzard> Sulla, that was me. i wrote a little perl script to mod anything you post down instantly.
[05:51:32] <Sulla> good call, i probably deserved it
[05:52:04] <Sulla> phone decided to shut off because i didn't charge it in time, now won't turn on or recognize a charge. Guess its time to go back to blackberry classic
[05:52:59] <Sulla> i bet the bent battery decided to fail, time to replace i guess
[05:53:23] <Sulla> you missed a good flamewar last night
[05:53:42] <Sulla> so glad i got first post on that shutdown thread

[06:54:43] <chromas> Is that the last one with the BB10?

[07:01:43] <Sulla> Going to use the bb10 classic as my phone for a while so I can actually fix the priv

[12:03:03] <MrPlow> https://www-03.ibm.com - "IBM 3380 DIBM 3380 DASD with IBM 3880. Rolled out in 1980, the IBM 3380 Direct Access Storage Device gave customers the ability to store up to 2.52 billion characters of information -- almost four times the amount of previous IBM storage devices. To meet the need for growth, a \"string\" or group of four 3380s could store ..."
[12:03:04] <upstart> ^ 03IBM Archives: IBM 3380 DASD with IBM 3880
[12:07:12] <Bytram> hmm... 2,5GB per device... up to 4 in a string ==> ~10 GB and... each of the 3380's was the size of a large and deep refrigerator. Oh, and if you have to ask what the price was... you can't afford it. Now, can buy a stick of USB storage for ~ $10 that has more capacity, is much faster, and draws far less electricity than that string of 3380's could ever dream of!

[16:39:19] <Sulla> Were there any downmods in that tv buying thread? Seems t have been entirely positive
[16:40:32] <takyon> want me 2 find out
[16:41:36] <takyon> on first glance I see 1 Disagree mod and that's it
[16:45:38] <Sulla> Proof that we can have nice things
[16:46:32] <Bytram> one thing I have noticed on this site... when someone reaches out for help, seems a lot of really nice folk jump right in to lend a hand.
[16:46:54] <Bytram> nicks I'd not seen in forever (or ever!) suddenly appear out of nowhere (or so it seems)
[16:47:26] <takyon> people are less likely to hate on an ask topic
[16:47:37] <Bytram> true that
[16:47:50] <Bytram> Is a large part of why I got into programming...
[16:48:00] <Bytram> for some reason folks were always too willing to lend a hand

[16:48:51] <chromas> Ask Soylent: Why do dead people rotate in graves when something they would've disliked happens?
[16:48:58] <takyon> fuck you, got mine!
[16:49:39] <Bytram> the negative experience causes a magnetic field in the otherwise positive environment? ==> induces rotation
[16:53:07] <chromas> I wonder if that's how the pink slime worked

[17:15:42] * chromas farts; turns it into a blockbuster comedy
[17:15:51] * Bytram holds his nose
[17:16:09] * Bytram hopes chromas only has a passing fancy
[17:16:20] <chromas> I think it's about time for a reboot of Airplane :D
[17:17:04] <Bytram> mashup? "Airplane" meets "Die Hard"
[17:17:25] <chromas> It'll be its own thing, but still follow the same plot, but all the dialog will be ad libbed by current-day SNL cast.
[17:17:44] * Bytram hasn't seen SNL in decades
[17:18:35] <Bytram> just never really got into it... seemed a bit too much on the juvenile side, or it just happened that the few episodes I watched were the not-so-good ones.
[17:18:39] <chromas> I think it's just like the Ghostbusters reboot cast now.
[17:18:47] <Bytram> didn't see that, either
[17:19:24] <chromas> Imagine a Michael Bay movie but without the explosions
[17:19:33] * Bytram shudders
[17:19:52] <chromas> oh?
[17:20:02] <chromas> I was expecting "I haven't seen a Michael Bay movie in..."
[17:20:08] <Bytram> oh, wait... had it backwards there -- was thinkong of JJ abrams

[21:41:30] <Sulla> u00 the left cant handle anyone disagreeing with them
[21:42:08] <Sulla> Cleaning the shed sucks. Dust, spiders, and stinkbugs everywhere
[21:45:38] <TheMightyBuzzard> Sulla, that's what flamethrowers are for.
[21:46:44] <chromas> For the spiders? Or the regressive left?
[21:47:30] <TheMightyBuzzard> whichever
[21:50:47] <Sulla> Been getting these 2in wolf spiders recently
[21:51:00] <Sulla> Leave 1-2in welts for a month or two when bitten
[21:53:13] <u00> love me some wolf spiders love kiss
[21:53:40] <TheMightyBuzzard> nothin wrong with wolf spiders. they almost never bug humans and they eat other spiders.
[21:53:50] <u00> i love to scratch chigger bites
[21:55:52] <Sulla> You must have peaceful east coast ones
[21:56:00] <Sulla> Out west they are hopped up on meth and pcp
[21:59:19] <u00> best thing I found was to just get a spray bottle and fill it with rubbing alcohol and spray your legs periodically thru out the day
[22:01:16] <TheMightyBuzzard> Sulla, midwest and southern ones are harmless. you can annoy them into biting you but you have to put some work into it.
[22:02:19] <chromas> You don't have Africanized spiders?
[22:08:16] <Sulla> hit my BlackBerry with the airgun and the keyboard panel flew off
