[11:26:05] -!- inky has quit [Remote host closed the connection]
[11:27:11] <FatPhil> I'm listening to something almost identical to Justin Bieber right now. They're called /The Nig-Heist/, and they don't make music like that any more :/ https://www.youtube.com
[11:27:13] <systemd> ^ 03Nig-Heist - Snort My Load W/BONUS TRACKS (FULL ALBUM)
[11:28:44] <FatPhil> Was thinking of playing some Rollins, contemplated Black Flag, but then thought I'd branch out just a little.
[11:31:08] <FatPhil> Basically Spinal Tap for NY punk.
[11:42:40] <t3> peezy eh? didn't know you were up on the detroit gangster music
[11:43:59] <FatPhil> the closest I get to gangster is, erm ...

[11:45:46] <FatPhil> There is one intermediate song (possibly if you need to fill all the gaps) between that song, and this nig-heist that I'm listening to right now. If anyone can work it out, I'll award them one hundred internet points.
[11:45:57] <FatPhil> possibly *2*
[11:50:47] <t3> that nig-heist reminds me of mudhoney
[11:54:34] <t3> or maybe gg allin
[12:00:01] <FatPhil> it's a core of Black Flag, but has some late 60s protometal and 70s cockrock too. Some of it is a bit Devin Townsend (Strapping Young Lad) too. It's a mix. Hilarious, a real breath of fresh air, I definitely needed that.
[12:00:36] <FatPhil> Then again, I don't know mudhoney or GG Allin, so you might be closer!

[12:03:05] <FatPhil> Ha! https://i.ibb.co (prolly NSFW)
[12:05:05] <FatPhil> Yeah mudhoney seems a classic reinvention of the rockerbilly-influenced 70s punk rock.
[12:06:39] <t3> mudhoney was an early grunge group, so you pretty much nailed it
[12:07:35] <FatPhil> it's more rock'n'rolley than the later grunge, which borrowed a lot more from doom
[12:08:33] <FatPhil> I kinda missed the invention of grunge. I was stuck in my metal rut by that stage, and didn't have a telly or radio
[12:12:27] <FatPhil> moved to .fi in late 92, had MTV for the first time in my life, was a chance to catch up on some of what I'd missed.

[12:38:19] <raxas> youtube cloud seems borked/split lately, I get 2.7-3.1M "good" downloads from some part of the cloud, even on old youtube-dl version, but 77k only from another, often crashing at session recover
[12:39:59] <FatPhil> Happens about 20+% of the time for me too. ^C the slow ones and restart
[12:40:32] <raxas> slow ones are best to let cooldown for a dozen of minutes or an hour
[12:40:42] <raxas> not restart imediateley
[12:41:18] <raxas> it's a bad balance loader I say
[12:45:52] <FatPhil> mine work with immediate restarts most of the time

[15:11:09] <chromas> in the bad old days, I was a crappy usb extension cable that would randomly disconnect when bumped mid-print. Now that I took that out of the loop, it just disconnects on its own without provocation.
[15:12:27] <requerdanos> much more elegant that way
[15:22:21] <Bytram> so, instead of provocation you now have amateurvocation?
[15:22:58] <Bytram> but you're getting better at it, right?

[21:46:01] <FatPhil> who's better: the elected officials of the UK, or the Queen?
[21:53:25] <requerdanos> better at what?
[21:53:50] * Deucalion bites tongue
[21:54:49] * Deucalion voted for none of the above
[21:54:54] <requerdanos> Please understand, my knowledge of UK politics comes from watching yes minister.
[21:55:14] <FatPhil> that's all you need to know
[21:55:29] <FatPhil> everything else is just fashion and fluff
[21:56:41] <Deucalion> requerdanos, basically to become a UK politician with any power to affect anything you have to gone to one of two secondary schools - Eton or Harrow, then gone on to university at Oxford or Cambridge and studied select subjects.
[21:57:34] <Bender> [SoylentNews] - Tokyo Reports Most Daily Covid-19 Cases in Six Months as Olympics Loom - https://sylnt.us
[21:57:37] <requerdanos> seems straightforward enough.
[21:58:04] <Deucalion> Any elected politician that is otherwise qualified may affect things briefly from time to time but they do not last.
[21:59:16] <Deucalion> Most policy though is controlled by the mandarins in the civil service.... the MPs do their bidding. It's all very opaque

[22:01:10] * Deucalion said would bite tongue
[22:01:26] <Deucalion> o/ hi mrpg
[22:01:53] <mrpg> Hello
[22:02:35] <mrpg> Though married to Hephaestus, Aphrodite had an affair with Ares, the god of war. Eventually, Hephaestus discovered Aphrodite's affair through Helios, the all-seeing Sun, and planned a trap during one of their trysts. While Aphrodite and Ares lay together in bed, Hephaestus ensnared them in an unbreakable chain-link net so small as to be invisible and dragged them to Mount Olympus to shame them in front of the other gods for retribution.
[22:02:45] <mrpg> wow
[22:03:09] <Deucalion> requerdanos, long and short is yes minister is not far off - the populous get riled about the politicians, change the politicians. but nothing changes as the shadow mandarins are controlling the whole thing :D
[22:05:18] <Deucalion> mrpg, Greek mythology is full of outrageous tales like that :D I love it btw!

[22:06:16] <Deucalion> ;)
[22:06:30] <mrpg> I read the odyssey when I was 12, very good book
[22:07:19] <Deucalion> It's so much more fun than today's religions... or maybe that is just rose tinted specs.
[22:08:24] <Deucalion> I like the Norse mythology too.... all tall tales and over the top deities

[22:11:30] <Deucalion> "After the Spanish conquest, missionaries and colonists destroyed many documents." - FUUUUUU
[22:12:14] <mrpg> of course, there might be 4,200 religions but there's only one GOD
[22:14:34] <Deucalion> meh.. there is only one rock we live on, the more we breed the more we better learn how to get along together, the rock is the god in practical terms
[22:18:12] <Deucalion> Unfortunately, the human species seems completely incapable of getting over their innate selfishness and greed on the whole. It'll be the end of the species.
[22:19:22] * Deucalion and with that I'm off to fiddle with irc configs while humanity burns..... my virtual shrug... nowt I can do about it :_/
[22:19:36] <mrpg> talking about the end of the species, there's people not having kids because they know it's selfish to bring kids to this world. I wonder how many think like that.
[22:19:49] <mrpg> Bye have fun

[23:42:33] * Runaway1956 pokes the deadbeef dude to see if he's ready to cook
[23:54:43] <raxas> it's ping timeout, not hangin aroud by a human client. it's definitely a bot. I already told so, some kind of c&c sync to a channel lurker. critical information to transfer is code in username
[23:56:03] <AzumaHazuki> well, human or bot, the admins have made it clear they've no interest in doing much about the problem
[23:56:16] <t3> what can they do?
[23:56:31] <AzumaHazuki> here's an idea: raise the bar for getting into IRC. Scrap the web client, make the room registration-only, and have a webpage saying as much
[23:56:55] <AzumaHazuki> if someone wants to tell us "shit's on fire, yo" and they're not already in here, they can take 5 minutes to set their IRC up
[23:57:26] <t3> that's not much of a raised bar for a scripted bot, but is an inconvenience for real people
[23:57:52] <AzumaHazuki> but this way bans will both 1) have teeth and 2) not unfairly target people (proxies aside)
[23:58:03] <raxas> if it was my server, I'd scrub usernames, not just addresses. that would break his comm model in this case
[23:59:15] <AzumaHazuki> i had no idea that could be done. Clever.
