[00:32:47] <upstart> ^ 03Opinion: America should allow other countries to vote in the 2020 election
[00:36:59] * TheMightyBuzzard chuckles
[00:37:54] <TheMightyBuzzard> what a whiner. if she wants to interfere with our elections, she should defect to russia.

[01:06:34] <TheMightyBuzzard> hrm... i kinda wanna play with some machine learning. think i'll teach my computer to sort my images of naked people by category.
[01:17:12] <Bender> [SoylentNews] - This Supercomputer Is Generating Millions of Universes - http://sylnt.us - starry-eyed
[01:20:52] <Sulla> Chromas is that article serious?
[01:21:17] <Sulla> What are leftists even arguing about anymore, wasn't that the point of this three year russia investigabullshit
[01:21:56] <TheMightyBuzzard> is it fucking insane and from a leftist perspective? of course it's real. everyone satirizing them has thrown their hands in the air and quit because the actual lefties keep topping the satire.
[01:25:57] <TheMightyBuzzard> oh blarg. most all the work on ML has been done in python. i don't wanna learn and rewrite a hundred libraries before i can get any actual work done and i'm sure as shit not using python.
[01:30:23] <AzumaHazuki> in case you hadn't noticed, the entire world has gone bat-shagging insane
[01:30:34] <AzumaHazuki> i'm not even sure those categories make any meaningful difference at this point
[01:31:00] <AzumaHazuki> i'm going to live as long as i can in as decent a state of mind as i can, and then top myself when it all goes to hell
[01:31:38] <Bytram> I beg to differ with the phrasing "the entire world"... I, for one, am not "bat-shagging insane!" I'm only mildly delirious! ;)
[01:31:42] <TheMightyBuzzard> they work fine as meaningless team names
[01:31:55] <AzumaHazuki> fuck that noise
[01:33:15] <TheMightyBuzzard> it's true on Bytram though. he's only mildly delirious. he don't like anything with more spice than hot and sour soup.
[01:34:13] <Bytram> Oh, I can got for a bit more than *that*... but I ain't going anywhere near a ghost pepper!!
[01:34:27] <AzumaHazuki> i might
[01:34:43] <AzumaHazuki> need to train for it though. right now even habaneros are a little much for me
[01:35:00] * TheMightyBuzzard just finished eating a burger with roughly 40 jalapeno slices on top
[01:36:28] <TheMightyBuzzard> ghost peppers aren't worth the bother. habaneros have a much more versatile flavor.
[01:36:34] <Bytram> I was on a hotter and hotter kick for a while. Asked for my Chinese food extra spicy... and then would add hot oil to that. The "end" results ended up being not worth it. Now I just like it hot enough to clear my pores and sinuses.
[01:37:08] <AzumaHazuki> at the old place i worked at the staff would joke I was the reincarnation of someone from Sichuan province, LOL
[01:38:13] <Bytram> Some *like* it HOT?
[01:38:48] <TheMightyBuzzard> probably my neighbor and arch nemesis then. i ate szechuan chicken/beef ever day for lunch for like six months back when i first started admining.
[01:39:04] <AzumaHazuki> indeed. I'd label my orders "++++sp" and they'd just eyeball it for a moment and shrug
[01:40:31] <TheMightyBuzzard> after like a month i gave up alternating between the two and asked them to just make a dish with both chicken and beef.
[01:44:28] <TheMightyBuzzard> fuck if i can remember when in my personal timeline but i worked graveyards at a convenience store while going to college for compsci (lasted until i had finished the semester's curriculum in four weeks and got bored/frustrated). making myself nachos cost money but putting a bunch of jalapeno slices in a bowl and grazing on them was free.
[01:56:37] <Bender> [SoylentNews] - New Bluetooth KNOB Flaw Lets Attackers Manipulate Traffic - http://sylnt.us - what-a-knob
[02:11:54] <Sulla> I have taken to drinking tumeric, ginger, black pepper, and honey as a tonic for everything
[02:12:04] <Sulla> Good for blood pressure and blood flow
[02:13:01] <AzumaHazuki> ah, you like those too? :)
[02:13:33] <AzumaHazuki> good choice; the black pepper's piperine inhibits a liver enzyme that breaks down the curcumin, and ginger is a good blood tonic
[02:13:51] <AzumaHazuki> this is one of the few times you will hear me say "syngergy" unironically
[02:17:43] <AzumaHazuki> ...jesus, it sounds like a war out there. the stadium lets off firecrackers it seems
[02:31:38] <Sulla> Take a large jar of honey and pack it with cut tumeric and ginger, then some cracked pepper
[02:31:52] <Sulla> Gonna do another blackberry giveaway, bb10 got support continued
[02:32:08] <Sulla> Anyone wanna throw some more loot into the pot?

[11:40:56] <TheMightyBuzzard> right, i'm out for the day. asses to kick and names to take.
[12:34:22] <Bytram> Sulla: No idea on the store except that it was set up in the "olden days"... I'm *guessing* it was created between when SN was say 6months to 1year old.
[12:35:33] <Bytram> I could check through some logs, but for that matter, you could prolly use the site's Search link and search for zazzle (I think that is the platform; should be in the link for the store)
[12:37:53] <Sulla> Okay
[12:38:29] <Sulla> I dont like the choice of hat. I might take the logo/design and slap it on a quality hat and then send in an extra donation
[12:38:58] <Bytram> talk to TheMightyBuzzard about that; he's made noises about hats a few times in here.
[12:39:32] <Bytram> more than just noises, actually. Knew someone... figured out pricing... etc.
[12:39:38] <Bytram> coffee++
[12:39:39] <Bender> karma - coffee: 4917
[12:39:59] <Bytram> I just woke up so take what I say with a suitable amount of salt
[12:41:52] <Sulla> Sounds good
[12:43:26] * Bytram goes to update the beg-o-meter
[12:44:40] <Bytram> Sulla: While you are here, please let me extend my sincere thanks for your very generous subscription renewal! And, your new BB raffle / campaign / whatchamacallit
[12:45:21] <Sulla> Well. I realize that I have never bought a sub before, but have been gifted them in the past
[12:46:39] <Bytram> Is nice that you appreciate the prior gift subs; I appreciate your current cash sub! Sounds like a good balance! =)
[12:47:28] <Sulla> Its one of those things where I think about doing it a lot and then never do it
[12:48:05] <Sulla> When does MDC subscription expire?
[12:48:54] <Bytram> good question... hold on
[12:50:11] <Bytram> Ugh. Sad face when I saw: Last access 2019-03-21
[12:50:43] <Bytram> subscription ends 2019-08-29 UTC
[12:52:08] <Bytram> afk biab
[12:52:34] <Sulla> Oh wow this month, he needs some guest subs

[13:54:24] <Bytram> have a great day everyone!
[14:16:06] <FatPhil> just met up with some old (since the early 90s) finnish friends, and they gave me a big bag of beers - so it is indeed a great day!

[19:45:29] <Sulla> When designing stairs that I'll still be using when I am old. What would you think is the maximum advised rise per step? Had them at 6in for my grandmother and need to redesign. 9in shouldn't be unreasonable?
[19:50:54] <chromas> Elevator
[19:54:38] <FatPhil> first thing my parents did when they bought their post-retirement home was have the staircase widened, so that there would be more room for a stairlift. All the neighbours (this was a kinda retirement village, so all old) were very jealous. Clearly my dad's a better architect than the architect.

[20:08:33] <Sulla> Elevator is best idea but ftw not rich
[20:09:10] <Sulla> But I'm also only 30 so dont need to worry about the upstairs yet
