[02:05:36] <Teckla> TheMightyBuzzard: Where do you live? If you don't mind saying. L
[02:06:25] <AzumaHazuki> he's somewhere in Tennessee, IIRC
[02:14:08] <Teckla> Ah.
[02:14:20] <Teckla> AzumaHazuki: Where are you?
[02:14:40] <AzumaHazuki> northwestern pennsylvania...but if all goes well this weekend, not for much longer
[02:15:10] <Teckla> Oh? Where are you hopefully going?
[02:15:27] <AzumaHazuki> Buffalo, NY
[02:15:38] <AzumaHazuki> and then onward to Soviet Canuckistan
[02:15:56] <Teckla> Ah, very nice.
[02:16:34] <AzumaHazuki> things might, might, finally be starting to go my way. i'm spending tomorrow through Sunday there scouting out bus routes and may be able to lock in a room to rent for August
[02:17:06] <Teckla> AzumaHazuki: Best of luck :)
[02:17:37] <AzumaHazuki> thanks...i hope for once i start to have luck. would be just utterly poetic if it takes the nation turning upside down for that to happen
[02:17:52] <AzumaHazuki> like, reality going "shit, everything else is opposite-land, let's give Marissa some good luck for a change too"
[02:18:30] <Teckla> Yeah. I live in Minnesota, the Twin Cities area. Usually things are pretty quiet around here...
[02:18:56] <Teckla> Marissa? I love that name
[02:20:05] <AzumaHazuki> uh...it's kind of ordinary? like, not quite as common as Jennifer (which I almost was and my sister is!) or Jessica for children of the late 80s, but...
[02:20:06] <Teckla> All right, time to read some Iron Druid before bed. G'nite all.
[02:20:11] <TheMightyBuzzard> Teckla, no secret there

[02:20:38] <AzumaHazuki> ick, humid and hot. no wonder the south is nuts.
[02:20:42] <TheMightyBuzzard> not my address, that gets pulled random when you give a zip or town
[02:21:25] <TheMightyBuzzard> heh, yeah, west texans come out here and are all like "man, look at all that pollution. you can see the air"
[02:21:54] <TheMightyBuzzard> i'm all "dude, that's what us folks who don't live in a desert call humidity"
[02:23:17] <TheMightyBuzzard> Teckla, kevin hearne is good. not jim butcher good but pretty damned good.
[02:23:35] <AzumaHazuki> i should be asleep. need to be up at 4:30 AM for this
[02:24:04] <TheMightyBuzzard> yup, headed that way myself. we should have bots to insult each other when we have an early night.

[02:28:05] <AzumaHazuki> corn is no place for a mighty warrior!
[02:36:18] <chromas> it's where we got the phrase "cornholed"
[02:54:43] <AzumaHazuki> ohhhh, fucking hell. juuuust now Buffalo cops knocked an old guy over. he's bleeding from his ears. one actually bent down to help and another cop pushed him away
[02:54:52] <AzumaHazuki> shit, i am going to have to be really careful up there...

[03:01:05] <kyonko> who died in front of city wok?
[03:03:28] <AzumaHazuki> man, you'd think this entire country was built on an ancient Indian burial ground or someth--shiiiiit.
[03:20:30] <chromas> To be fair, they weren't ancient at the time.
[03:33:49] <carny> isn't every city center a bad place to be right now?
[03:35:26] <AzumaHazuki> you know this stuff is a real "what you are in the dark" moment. our worst members are doing their usual thing, and I'm just watching their boiling, stenching, leering shadows growing bigger and bigger and bigger...
[03:35:54] <AzumaHazuki> i've given up on giving humanity the benefit of the doubt
[03:36:00] <carny> that sounds very racist
[03:36:58] <AzumaHazuki> (hint: I already knew where you stood)
[03:37:24] <AzumaHazuki> just...none of y'all better come crying to me when this is all over and we're all dead and you're wondering why your own shadows have turned into Hellfire
[03:37:42] <carny> you know almost nothing about me thanks
[03:37:53] <AzumaHazuki> i know enough from the stuff i've seen so far
[03:39:03] <carny> i'm sure you're very perceptive
[03:39:49] <AzumaHazuki> what's the matter? have i struck a nerve somewhere?
[03:39:59] <AzumaHazuki> if so, re-evaluate your headspace
[03:40:27] <carny> congrats you're smart enough that you can tell that i have a personal history involving people murdered by communists and enough exposure to the real world that i don't have time for politically correct bull shit
[03:42:17] <AzumaHazuki> why is this so easy? that was my third guess at your backstory
[03:44:02] <Cascade> The Terminator is fwee on YouTube. Not the second one though.
[03:44:20] <Cascade> It keeps trying to tell me there are more Terminator movies but I've never heard of them.

[20:05:48] <AndyTheAbsurd> I enjoy looking for ridiculous things for sale on my area's craigslist. Today's find is this: https://tampa.craigslist.org

[20:14:13] <chromas> NCommander'd better get on that immediately for his YouTubes
[20:14:23] <chromas> Might be too new though
[20:34:31] <Deucalion> He'll get to it eventually :D
[20:35:11] <Deucalion> Remember NC can do 50K word thesis in one sitting when in the zone...
[20:36:33] <chromas> We have a Soylent book club. Let's have NC write up a book and we'll review it.
[20:37:03] <chromas> for next April 1, we should have a banner advertising his next book :D

[20:39:51] <Deucalion> Oh my.... a book by NC... it'd be 100K pages and as tall as an apartment building.... people would not call it a coffee table book, they would not use it as a coffee table, whole civilisations would live in it for millenia unnoticed :D
[20:45:54] <Fnord666> Would it be on the back of a giant turtle?
[20:46:40] <boru> No, silly. It's giant books all the way down.
[20:46:49] <Fnord666> :)

[21:24:46] <Teckla> You have tablets?!
[21:25:51] <chromas> it's an iStone S+
[21:27:41] <Teckla> Oooh. <3 that name :)
[21:27:55] * Teckla is between computers and is actually using his iPad as his main computing device right now.
[21:30:13] -!- AzumaHazuki [AzumaHazuki!~hazuki@the.end.of.time] has joined #soylent
[21:30:55] <chromas> I'm sorry for your loss
[21:32:17] <Teckla> haha!
[21:32:37] <Teckla> I gave my old PC away, and started looking for a replacement, and then bam!, Covid-19.
[21:32:53] <Teckla> And also bam!, Ryzen, baby! So I decided to wait and see what develops :)
[21:33:07] <Teckla> iPad as primary computing device is kind of painful. Usable, but painful.
[21:33:32] <chromas> Can you use a mouse and keyboard with it like androids?
[21:33:37] <Teckla> The newer keyboard and mouse support helps a lot.
[21:33:42] <chromas> ah
[21:34:01] <Teckla> chromas: Yes. I'm using a Bluetooth Logitech keyboard with integrated touchpad. It all works.
[21:38:31] <Teckla> It's actually turning into a kind of fun "experiment." It's fun to learn first-hand what's good, what's bad, etc.

[22:11:56] <AndyTheAbsurd> I tried to use my (Android) tablet with bluetooth keyboard/touchpad as a laptop replacement on a several-days-long trip once. Didn't work well for me.
[22:12:06] <AndyTheAbsurd> As Teckla said: Usable, but painful.
[22:22:04] <AzumaHazuki> that sounds like trying to jack off with oven mitts
[22:22:23] <AzumaHazuki> (n.b.: i have no idea if that would make it harder or not but it sounds like it should...?)
[22:24:28] <pinchy> silk oven mitts?
[23:20:40] <chromas> I wonder where OpenStreetMap gets its housing datums from
[23:20:51] <chromas> There's a big ol' hole right where my house should be
[23:22:13] <chromas> Hm, I found a spot in the neighborhood where two houses are on top of two other houses
[23:23:31] <chromas> Disregard that last bit; I'm retarded
[23:23:46] <AzumaHazuki> ja, we know
[23:24:07] <chromas> But my house is still missing
[23:25:27] <AzumaHazuki> have you tried turning it off and back on again sir?
[23:26:02] <chromas> Of course! I rebooted it three times. You always tell me to do it three times
