[02:57:50] <TheMightyBuzzard> fun with math: you're more likely to die suddenly after pissing them off in a completely unrelated to the clintons manner than you are by shark attack.
[02:58:39] <TheMightyBuzzard> only by about thirty percent though
[03:05:36] <chromas> Heh, you believe in sharks
[03:07:21] <TheMightyBuzzard> of course. i watched jaws AND i saw fonzie jump one on his bike.
[03:09:21] <chromas> True. We've all seen fonzie jump shark, but has anyone ever seen Bill jump Hillary?
[03:14:47] <TheMightyBuzzard> possibly chelsea. that would explain a lot.
[03:40:51] <TheMightyBuzzard> okay, bedtime.

[12:38:49] <exec> <Bytram> TheMightyBuzzard: Looks like your story sub about HR1 got a bit of traction; is at 100 comments already.
[12:39:33] <TheMightyBuzzard> yeah, most of it is stupid partisan bullshit but there's some worthwhile chatter in there as well.
[12:39:35] <Bytram> and, FWIW, a large paperclip bent into a U shape is also not a good thing to stick into an electrical outlet.
[12:39:49] <Bytram> haven't looked at the comments, yet.

[23:03:03] <chromas> Now if they could just get to work on their gpus
[23:09:18] <boru> chromas++ The RTX is price gouging, pure and simple.
[23:09:18] <Bender> karma - chromas: 241
[23:09:59] <chromas> B-but games will have real-time raytracing real soon now
[23:10:16] <chromas> I guess if pre-ordering works for games it should work for hardware too
[23:10:25] <boru> nvidia want to finance graphene research, morelike.
[23:11:39] <TheMightyBuzzard> time's not real anyway. the universe just makes it up as it goes along.
[23:12:45] <chromas> Hey now, the universe identifies as timely and you gotta respect that
[23:13:30] <TheMightyBuzzard> literally true and highly amusing. spacetime doesn't exist beyond how far the universe has expanded, so the universe actually is creating time (making it up as it goes) as it expands
[23:14:52] <chromas> But maybe it does though. It could have its own sense of time but for optimization is just imports time from the host.
[23:16:16] <chromas> #smake arch
[23:16:16] * MrPlow smakes arch upside the head with chocolate covered banana

[23:57:49] <boru> The SN shop sure does need large ceramic beer steins.
[23:58:44] <boru> And branded RPN calculators.
