[00:04:51] <Teckla> The games on it were almost too good, though. I did more gaming and less programming because of it.

[17:13:36] <chromas> You guys have your own version of hockey too?
[17:34:29] <FatPhil> hockey's hockey.
[17:34:47] <FatPhil> all it requires is a field
[17:35:21] <FatPhil> if you're gonna add ice, add ice to the name, simples
[17:37:59] <FatPhil> i notice the powers that be have gone a bit idiocracy, and are calling the final the "gold medal game".
[17:49:06] <chromas> wtf, hockey doesn't have medals
[17:49:14] <chromas> supposed to be handing out cups
[17:51:41] <FatPhil> your complaint has been noted, next year it will be the big shiny cup game
[17:53:20] <chromas> the Chalices vs the Goblets game
[17:54:21] <FatPhil> I'm glad to see that they've broken up the three 20 minute halves into smaller chunks, with "power naps" or something.
[17:57:45] <chromas> how many ad breaks per inning?
[17:58:42] <FatPhil> no breaks needed - there's sponsorship all round the stadium
[17:58:55] <chromas> that's not enough
[17:59:09] <chromas> we need a break from our sponsors to take a moment to talk about our sponsors
[17:59:12] <FatPhil> I notice that crypto.com is sponsoring a whole ton of stuff nowadays
[17:59:41] <FatPhil> one can only imagine that the ponzi machine needs its hopper refilling
[18:00:55] <chromas> like some sort of inverse pyramid
[18:01:19] <FatPhil> no idea who they are, but I noticed they were sponsoring some F1 team earlier

[18:43:46] <FatPhil> the thing is that I remember the "640k" thing being a real thing back in the 80s - however, it was 256K when I first heard it, which I think was the PC Jr model.
[19:11:01] <FatPhil> man, there's plenty of sport in this sportball?

[19:54:59] <FatPhil> fuck, I hate sportball
[19:58:32] <inz> I don't really think either of the teams really deserved their place in the final
[20:04:06] <inz> I would congratulate the canucks, but none of them probably care about the WC tournament at all
[20:05:57] <FatPhil> first two periods were terrible
[20:06:04] <FatPhil> .fi woke up in the third
[20:06:30] <FatPhil> fell asleep in the fourth
[20:06:59] <inz> The two penalties that led to the first two goals were... ...interesting
[20:07:17] <FatPhil> I did actually shout out "raped" about 5s before the golden goal. I was the first in the pub to realise things were baaaad.
[20:07:35] <inz> Yeah, Kontiola really fucked up
[20:08:01] <FatPhil> canada deserved to win because they spent 50% of the time with only 5 men on the ice.
[20:08:21] <FatPhil> last time I saw the stats, it was 30 mins of penalties
[20:09:39] <inz> Although 20 of those were misconducts
[20:11:55] <inz> Seems that 12 minutes in the box is too much of a infection risk, and one needs to wear a mask
[20:12:09] <inz> +n
[20:12:44] <FatPhil> if the sin-bin is kept at -70C, then everything's fine
[20:13:25] <inz> That would make things more interesting
[20:13:46] <inz> Then the sinner could not rest during the time-out, but needed to keep active
[20:14:12] <FatPhil> or would have to keep perfectly still so as to not cause airflow
[20:14:23] <FatPhil> the choice is his...
[20:16:33] <FatPhil> I must of course apologise for my sexist language - females of course may play ice hockey, the fact that they've evolved frontal cortices doesn't exclude them.

[20:19:01] <inz> FP, that would work if someone invented more flattering type of protective pants
[20:19:26] <FatPhil> if the sponsors demanded it, they would be designed.
[20:20:19] <inz> Azuma, it's only 12 years since Python 3 was released, they've not had the time.

[20:22:08] <AzumaHazuki> ye gods
[20:22:49] <FatPhil> yeah, but it wasn't EOLed until about 2 years ago. They weren't brutal enough.
[20:24:27] <inz> True, we managed to do it just 1 year after EOL
[20:24:35] <FatPhil> and we're only past the threshold of "no more unpaid support" - if you're stupid and have the $$$, then you can keep using 2.7 forevah!

[20:25:39] <FatPhil> or was that just a dream/nightmare
