[00:00:13] <AzumaHazuki> i'll give you a clue: building things is said to be manly. this zero-sum ideology of yours is destructive. unmanly.
[00:00:19] <Runaway1956> Oh, so it's "us vs them" is it?
[00:00:31] <AzumaHazuki> according to you, yes
[00:00:39] <AzumaHazuki> mr "making women mad since 1956"
[00:00:43] <Runaway1956> So . . . what does a soyboi build?
[00:01:11] <AzumaHazuki> first, answer what precisely a "so[y/i]bo[y/i]" is
[00:01:21] <AzumaHazuki> because it sounds like a tofu golem to me
[00:01:30] <Runaway1956> mostly, they are wimpy little fucks who never accomplish anything
[00:01:46] <AzumaHazuki> okay, and what does soy have to do with this?
[00:01:55] <AzumaHazuki> if you mean that, just say it: no-accounts
[00:02:13] <FatPhil> this one? https://eand.co
[00:02:15] <systemd> ^ 03The Triumph of the American Idiot ( https://eand.co )
[00:02:21] <AzumaHazuki> yes, that one
[00:02:24] <Runaway1956> it's the whole "ohhh, I'm lactose, glucose, sex intolerant" bullshit thing
[00:02:52] <AzumaHazuki> so to be clear, people who actually are constitutionally unable to tolerate certain foods, or...?
[00:03:01] <FatPhil> Not seen that link before. Seems a bit "preachy", (and following a couple of internal links that seems to be their style).
[00:03:03] <AzumaHazuki> (incidentally, soy allergies are common)
[00:03:10] <Runaway1956> Just hang around Starbucks . . . .
[00:03:25] <AzumaHazuki> oh, pretentious hipsters? just say so. yeah no one likes them
[00:03:56] <AzumaHazuki> fortunately i know a foolproof hipster catcher: set a bear trap and balance a can of PBR on the plunger :D
[00:04:07] <Runaway1956> or we can use your previous term, no-accounts.
[00:04:17] <AzumaHazuki> okay, so why not just say what you mean?
[00:04:32] <Runaway1956> it's more fun to watch you chase your tail around the tree
[00:04:34] <AzumaHazuki> these people were around long before soy foods became common here
[00:05:15] <AzumaHazuki> so, your problem is with people who don't make something of their potential even when there's nothing really holding them back, correct?
[00:05:40] <Runaway1956> it seems more that they have no potential
[00:06:24] <AzumaHazuki> okay. if this is the case, then bitching at them to use the potential they haven't got is...futile. why waste the energy? just ignore them
[00:06:58] <Runaway1956> well zoom zoom - maybe I'm like you
[00:07:03] <AzumaHazuki> i doubt it
[00:07:13] <AzumaHazuki> you've only got one helix, for a start
[00:07:22] <Runaway1957> Don't thing it was me. But, I post soooo many!
[00:07:30] <Runaway1956> well, even accounting for xx irritability
[00:08:38] <Runaway1956> thank got we don't have people with triple-X irritability
[00:08:52] <AzumaHazuki> so we've established that something you can do jack and shit all about is making you saltier than a beluga's butthole
[00:08:54] <Runaway1956> oh, wait, that would be the Puritans
[00:09:23] <Runaway1956> yes, we've established that something you can do jack and shit all about is making you saltier than a beluga's butthole
[00:09:32] <AzumaHazuki> trisomy 47,XXX is a thing you know
[00:09:39] <AzumaHazuki> it's about 1:10,000 live human births
[00:09:47] <Runaway1956> isn't it wonderful how I've manipulated you into admitting that?
[00:09:57] <AzumaHazuki> ...er, no? that is a weird nonsequitur
[00:10:17] <c0lo> FatPhil, no I'm not calling *you* fay. I just had the compulsion to award karma to FayPhil too.
[00:10:25] <Runaway1956> I suggested that maybe I'm kinda like you, and you finally spouted that bullshit out - amazing
[00:10:32] <Runaway1956> established that something you can do jack and shit all about is making you saltier than a beluga's butthole
[00:10:34] <AzumaHazuki> yeah, we're not much alike
[00:10:50] <Runaway1956> more than you will admit until you grow up
[00:11:12] <AzumaHazuki> you're like double my age, not even half my usefulness, and you tend to do a drunkard's walk from topic to topic
[00:11:35] <AzumaHazuki> not quite the schizophrenic free association kyonko does, but you're showing signs of MCI or early Old-timer's
[00:11:45] <chromas> old-timer's?
[00:11:58] <AzumaHazuki> Alzheimer's
[00:11:59] <chromas> is that like ED?
[00:12:03] <chromas> ah
[00:12:08] <AzumaHazuki> ED is probably included in the, heh, package
[00:12:36] <chromas> I just saw an ad for ED on one of my FB socks so that's why I was thinking of not being able to get it up
[00:12:50] <Runaway1956> excuses chromas . . .
[00:13:03] <chromas> Thumbnail was a chick's butt but the video's just a guy in a labcoat blabbing
[00:13:09] <AzumaHazuki> i read about 1 in 4 men over 40 has some degree of ED, so it sounds really common
[00:13:09] <Runaway1956> it's more likely the soymilk
[00:13:17] <FatPhil> Election Dysfunction?
[00:13:34] <chromas> For when you can't quite get your ballot in the box
[00:13:38] <AzumaHazuki> LOL
[00:13:59] <AzumaHazuki> sounds like runaway's definitely got that
[00:14:06] <aristarchus> show some respect for old philosophers who haven't gotten it up for over a thousand years
[00:14:11] <chromas> no
[00:14:14] <AzumaHazuki> no
[00:14:20] <FatPhil> "some degree" is loose enough wording that yeah, it's a believable stat.
[00:14:30] <chromas> ED is a spectrum and we're all on it
[00:14:58] <Runaway1956> zumi is on it?
[00:15:07] <AzumaHazuki> see this is why i keep my penis in the sock drawer

[14:49:11] <Bytram> beta is expected to expand early next year, IIRC
[14:53:25] <TheMightyBuzzard> fuck beta!
[14:53:37] <Bytram> lol!
[14:53:49] <Bytram> hey, while you are here?
[14:54:03] <Bytram> TheMightyBuzzard: quick C programming question for ya
[14:54:16] <TheMightyBuzzard> yar?
[14:54:27] <Bytram> was does this do: sum %= sizeof (rcolors) / sizeof (char);
[14:54:35] <Bytram> specificall the %=
[14:55:05] <inz> sum = sum % ...
[14:55:10] <inz> i.e. modulo
[14:55:22] <Bytram> so... what is 7 % 3
[14:55:27] <inz> 1
[14:55:36] <Bytram> got it. tx so much
[14:55:44] <Bytram> Inz++
[14:55:44] <Bender> karma - inz: 2
[14:55:54] <Bytram> that was worth a double to me
[14:55:56] <Bytram> Inz++
[14:55:56] <Bender> karma - inz: 3
[14:55:58] <Bytram> :D
[14:56:11] <inz> That's a lot of karma for a triviality
[14:56:13] <inz> inz--
[14:56:18] <inz> damn
[14:56:59] <Bytram> specifically, I am looking at: https://github.com
[14:57:02] <systemd> ^ 03hexchat/hexchat ( https://github.com )
[14:58:14] <Bytram> with an interest in colorizing the company "names" that appear in #rss-bot channel to make entries easier to tell apart
[14:58:16] <FatPhil> So effectively it's: sum = sum % 9;
[14:59:24] <Bytram> maybe in that particular case, but they have made it trivially self adapting to one's adding / removing permitted colors
[14:59:31] <TheMightyBuzzard> be easier to do in the rss bot's code than hacking up your hexchat, no?
[14:59:55] <Bytram> [BBCTech] vs [PhysOrg]
[15:00:30] <Bytram> structurally look very similar, diff colors would make it easier for me to follow along when scrolling
[15:00:44] <Bytram> yes and no
[15:01:21] <Bytram> from what I understand, the code for the #rss-bot channel is a bit frightful
[15:01:56] <TheMightyBuzzard> prolly but you'd only be looking at like one or two lines of it
[15:02:08] <Bytram> was thinking use same mechanism as sedbot uses (tail a channel), colorize the source
[15:02:40] <Bytram> *source's name, and then output it in a different channel; e.g #rss-botc
[15:03:06] <Bytram> I am a very firm believer in K.I.S.S
[15:03:22] <TheMightyBuzzard> write a script for hexchat then. much less invasive.
[15:03:31] <Bytram> my idea would be trivial to implement and understand
[15:03:49] <Bytram> hmm, never did that before
[15:03:55] <TheMightyBuzzard> yes and gone next time you update hexchat
[15:04:05] <Bytram> suggestions on where to start?
[15:04:11] <TheMightyBuzzard> ain't hard. just perl or python or whatever scripts
[15:04:48] <TheMightyBuzzard> https://hexchat.readthedocs.io
[15:04:49] <systemd> ^ 03HexChat Perl Interface — HexChat 2.14.3 documentation
[15:04:51] <Bytram> I understand there'd be code... how to interface/install it. Got any handy examples I can work from?
[15:05:15] <TheMightyBuzzard> you can do javascript or python or lua too if you prefer
[15:05:51] <TheMightyBuzzard> should be lots on hexchat site but i don't have any personal ones anymore. lost em in the last drive crash i think.
[15:07:08] <Bytram> TheMightyBuzzard: sorry to hear that! I'm going through trying to create my workflow on linux after ~20 years of customizing my work environment under DOS and Windows
[15:07:25] <TheMightyBuzzard> if you're not in a hurry i could write you one, i'm about to have to go play with the building inspector though, finally.
[15:07:31] <Bytram> s/create/recreate/
[15:07:31] <SedBot> <Bytram> sorry to hear that! I'm going through trying to recreate my workflow on linux after ~20 years of customizing my work environment under DOS and Windows
[15:07:32] <TheMightyBuzzard> oh i never used em anyway
[15:07:44] <TheMightyBuzzard> just built em for kicks
[15:07:45] <Bytram> lol
[15:07:56] <Bytram> and Trids?
[15:08:03] <Bytram> and silly rabbits?
[15:08:05] <TheMightyBuzzard> nod nod
[15:08:08] <Bytram> :D
[15:08:36] <Bytram> if you would, do so, I would be very much appreciative!
[15:09:13] <Bytram> that said, I really need to get cleaned up -- back in a half hour or so.
[15:09:19] <Bytram> TIA!
[15:09:31] <FatPhil> looking at the hexchat documentation the first thing I would suggest is 'don't use hexchat'!
[15:10:26] <TheMightyBuzzard> pshaw
[15:10:29] <Bytram> btw, I have no particular pref for color scheme, just that it be consistent between invocations. IOW always get same color for a given source.
[15:12:05] <TheMightyBuzzard> Bytram, someone already wrote it: https://github.com
[15:12:05] <Bytram> e.g I look to be colored 'Red' in this channel atm. If I were to stop and restart, I'd like to still have the same color. So, BBC would always be colored the same, PhysOrg would always be colored the same, etc.
[15:12:06] <systemd> ^ 03hexchat/hexchat-addons
[15:14:09] <TheMightyBuzzard> just change the values in %chan_highlights. keys are channel names, values are pipe separated lists of things to highlight
[15:14:50] <Bytram> not quite what I am looking for.
[15:15:17] <TheMightyBuzzard> you need em going to another channel? thought it was just for visibility
[15:16:00] <Bytram> Examine name of feed. construct hightligh color, use that color to re-emit text with source in new color. Totally ad-hoc; no pre-enumeration required
[15:16:10] <Bytram> means to an end.
[15:16:36] <Bytram> if other's prefer colors they can follow other channel in which it was emitted
[15:16:44] <Bytram> if not, just continue with orig.
[15:17:12] <TheMightyBuzzard> shurg, i'll pillage that one later then. the tedious bits (stuff i'd have to look up as opposed to think up) are already written
[15:17:54] <Bytram> overhead is minor; we are already logging #rss-bot with Loggie; no need to have Loggie track #rss-botc, too.
[15:18:12] <TheMightyBuzzard> why are we logging #rss-bot?
[15:18:33] <Bytram> (1) we've already done it.
[15:19:08] <Bytram> (2) is handy when wanting to check back on when an issue was first raised in our view of the media
[15:19:39] <Bytram> (3) S&G - sometimes interesting to see what was perceived to be important at some given time
[15:19:57] <Bytram> (Shits * Giggles, that was)
[15:20:09] <Bytram> really gtg; biab
[15:20:13] <Bytram> TIA!
[15:20:17] <TheMightyBuzzard> i won't, be much later
[15:20:25] <Bytram> and, best of luck with inspection!

[18:36:15] <chromas> No worries mate; I'm already on quadcare
[18:42:51] <FatPhil> you raise an interesting question, one I raised myself - why "tricare", what's the three-ness about it?
[18:43:36] <FatPhil> apparently there's a scam going round about yearly for some kind of thing, but if they're targetting my g/f, then they must be getting desperate.
