[00:01:44] <raxas> funny, they use stupid title generator script. no more nikkei submits from me then
[00:10:25] <FatPhil> relax, along with me, with some: https://www.youtube.com
[00:10:28] <systemd> ^ 03Paul Gilbert "Scarified" (High quality)
[00:12:56] <FatPhil> he played that at the non-Racer-X gig he played here
[00:13:23] <FatPhil> we waited an hour outside at -20C to chat to him and his band
[00:13:36] <raxas> I am on https://www.youtube.com it's new to me since I never watched these new SW
[00:13:38] <systemd> ^ 03Two Steps From Hell - Never Back Down [Music Video]
[00:13:38] <FatPhil> his band was happy to chat to us at -20C
[00:14:37] <FatPhil> and when he finally came out he was amazed that there were such idiots
[00:15:13] <FatPhil> really nice guy, really modest for a "rock star"
[00:15:48] <FatPhil> assuming you remember https://www.youtube.com
[00:15:51] <systemd> ^ 03Mr. Big - To Be With You 4K Video
[00:17:04] <FatPhil> we thanked him for playing Yes's /Roundabout/, and he responded "do you know how hard it was to adapt that to guitar", and we said "no"
[00:17:28] <FatPhil> Possibly the best gig I've been to.
[00:18:51] <FatPhil> and no, he played no Mr. Big
[00:20:46] <raxas> the song is known to me, not the band. perhaps radio...
[00:21:11] <FatPhil> I think it was almost a constructed band
[00:21:34] <FatPhil> pop this in your ear'oles: https://www.youtube.com

[00:34:59] <FatPhil> not enough notes, that's the problem
[00:38:50] <Bytram> FatPhil: thanks for the reminder about /Roundabout/ -- it's been ages since I listened to that!@

[00:41:28] <FatPhil> the only drum'n'bass I'll ever listen to
[00:44:10] <FatPhil> don't be fooled by the appearance of the drummer - she has repeatedly crushed the breath out of me after gigs. It's a good job she's on the right side.
[00:45:35] <raxas> Tábor is a holy city, originally built by people as fortress against crusaders https://en.wikipedia.org people living there are... strange. always fanatics

[06:26:43] <bacteria> went through pacifica today, saw this very special franchise that serves green margarita slushies: http://melikamp.com
[06:39:05] <FatPhil> I think I'll head up the peninsula to the east today. Went up the peninsula to the west a couple of weeks back and it was very relaxing. Protected nature area, bird spotting towers, and 17th century fortifications.

[11:56:48] <FatPhil> Do we have any US accent experts awake? Are there any particular MI/MN "tells"?
[12:01:24] <chromas> you mean "tyells"?
[12:02:30] <FatPhil> I did hear a "I'm retired" almost as "I'm retard", I wonder if that's one.
[12:03:07] <chromas> I thought that'd be more southern
[12:03:11] <chromas> not an expert tho
[12:03:49] <FatPhil> As I write it, yeah, it looks like what a southern drawl would do, but I'm pretty sure it wasn't southern at all. Text is not the best medium.
[12:03:56] <chromas> oh wait is MI Mississippi or Michigan?
[12:04:10] <FatPhil> MI=mich
[12:05:23] <chromas> ah. All I know about Michigan accent is gangsta rap
[12:05:59] <FatPhil> so I should wait for him to say "strait outta comptard"?
[12:06:34] <chromas> that's california. you want "Deetroiiit!"
[12:07:54] <chromas> listen to some eminemord12 and you'll know all about real ganstas from da streetz (of mi)
[12:08:04] * chromas curses this spacebar
[12:08:44] <FatPhil> I'll swap your space bar for my shift key
[12:09:58] <chromas> Seems like stereotype MN accent is similar to stereotype Canadian
[12:10:38] <chromas> they might even say "aboot"
[12:11:45] <chromas> although the Canadians I've heard pronounce the "oo" like in book, contrary to what comedians indicate
[12:13:35] <FatPhil> yeah, there is an overlap with what I consider Canadian.

[13:59:54] <t3> I'm from michigan
[14:00:07] <t3> and my family is from MN
[14:00:42] <t3> people say 'ope!', like homer simpson says 'doh'
[14:00:55] <t3> 'ya know' at the end of sentences
[14:01:57] <t3> they call soda "pop"
[14:04:27] <t3> MN has a slighlty scandinavian accent, more singsongy rhythm like finnish
[14:04:32] <t3> not real strong tho
[14:07:41] <FatPhil> Thanks for that - the reason I was wondering about his accent/state was because he had a Finnish surname, and I know MI/MN are where most of the US Finns are.
[14:10:17] <FatPhil> Ah, I wasn't going mad - I thought I saw someone identifying as an Apache Attack Helicopter outside my window this morning: https://news.err.ee
[14:10:19] <systemd> ^ 03British Army helicopters in Tallinn overflight Saturday morning
[14:10:46] <FatPhil> Some Brits did some drunken naughties last month, I think this is an apology.
[14:11:56] <FatPhil> They couldn't have been more than about 200m from my window as they flew over, it was quite a sight, and a noise.
[14:48:10] <inz> Phil, you having a VAR party right now?
[14:49:13] <FatPhil> Am I playing?
[14:49:32] <FatPhil> I should go to the brewpub, we've added tellies to the downstairs bar for the Euros
[14:49:55] <inz> WAL-SUI
[14:50:26] <inz> Swiss goal was offside after VAR review
[14:50:57] <FatPhil> Ah, that explains why someone said "25% of Philip is playing" earlier
[14:51:02] <FatPhil> elsechan
[14:52:54] <FatPhil> oooh, DK vs. FI later
[14:55:49] <inz> yeah, gonna be the first ever loss in any championship tournament for us.
[15:02:25] <FatPhil> I have a finnish friend who's sailing to Greece currently. I think he might be near CPH right now - I wonder if he'll watch the match in a Danish bar...
[15:03:55] <inz> In Christiania the loss wouldn't be too devastating
[15:04:39] <FatPhil> Assuming you can see the screen.
[15:05:01] <inz> True, didn't think of that.
[15:05:03] <FatPhil> Saw some live music in a bar there once, and I literally couldn't see the stage for smoke
[15:06:14] <inz> I'm sure most people won't mind. Anything. At all.
[15:06:33] <inz> Except if the music isn't reggae.

[18:01:14] <progo> oh I saw that in another forum but I didn't notice "AI-powered study"
[18:01:32] <progo> does that have something to do with seeing patterns in noise where even humans fail to imagine nonsense?
[18:02:40] <progo> … or did they come up with a way to call MS Excel or SAS "AI" for institutional marketing purposes?

[18:06:54] <progo> lol
[18:07:02] <progo> probably because there are a lot of dog pictures on the internet
[18:07:49] <chromas> apparently google's data set included images specifically for classifying dogs, so there's an excess
[18:08:08] <chromas> microsoft needs to come out with its own equivalent but using cats
[18:08:49] <chromas> hm, so 3d printers are just a few hundred bucks, but plastic recyclers are only a few thousand
[18:08:52] <progo> remember when Microsoft released an AI chatbot on the Internet with one global memory state for all users? trolls turned it into a nazi in about 1 day
[18:09:26] <chromas> yes...trolls
[18:09:30] * chromas shifty eyes
[18:10:18] <progo> or: there are SO many nazis that enough of them were interested in a random publicity stunt and spoke honestly to it
[18:10:18] <chromas> they have an api to use the newer bot but I dunno if you could train it to be funny again or if that's clockbocked
[18:11:05] <progo> clockblocked: no sense of time?
[18:11:14] <progo> *clockbocked
[18:11:26] <chromas> it's chicken tiem
[18:13:05] <chromas> I played with the replacement bot, Zo. It seemed to have some specific blocks in it so it would bitch if I said "fuck" or whatever
[18:14:28] <chromas> any of youse guys have a 3d printer recommendation?
[18:14:34] <progo> if the contextual filters aren't themselves actual AI, then it's just a challenge to the trolls to work around them :^)
[18:14:50] <progo> I've never been near a 3d printer except at a conference

[18:16:23] <progo> try not to pay attention to her "biggest tits you can buy in China". she likes them
[18:16:45] <chromas> #tits4clicks
[18:16:49] <progo> yes
[18:16:53] <chromas> ah I've seen a couple of her videos
[18:17:08] <chromas> thank yhwh no relation to brianna wu
[18:17:17] <progo> completely different person :^)
[18:18:01] <progo> they might self-annihilate if they come in contact
[18:19:21] <chromas> I think the video I saw was a dog chiller
[18:19:30] <progo> lol
[18:19:40] <progo> she owns a husky, in Shenzhen

[18:24:54] <chromas> Isn't is the diarrhea that makes it the ultimate slip 'n' slide?
