[07:42:42] <chromas> The mt3 keycaps are almost as good as rubbing a cat's nose

[07:53:02] <chromas> I forgot bandcamp was a thing
[07:53:14] <chromas> lemme see if the flute's still there
[07:53:54] <Subsentient> Yeah I'm digging into them more lately. Lots of good stuff there that hasn't been getting support it deserves
[07:54:09] <Subsentient> Bandcamp is a fantastic place to find metal
[07:54:55] <chromas> so long as there's no trap beats and robot voice I'm in
[07:55:20] <Subsentient> No no, you're thinking of Ethanol Fueled's famous "Gay Jewish Robots". I still have that song.
[07:55:42] <chromas> I'm thinking of almost every modern 'mainstream' song released in the last few years
[07:56:29] <chromas> people autotune both their voice and the doubled track which doesn't make any sense
[07:56:49] <Subsentient> Well you're definitely not going to find any of that in black metal lol
[07:56:55] <chromas> this has a lot of reverb
[07:57:55] <chromas> not sure if it's just in the mix but it sounds like he's whispering into the mic so nobody in the house can hear him recording
[07:58:03] <Subsentient> Lol
[07:58:23] <Subsentient> That's part of the black metal experience. Dimestore production value is often considered a plus.
[07:58:33] <Subsentient> I don't care for that element personally, I just see through it.
[07:59:22] <chromas> that's because dimes aren't what they used to be. inflation's made them stretch to transparency

[08:00:08] <Subsentient> I'd skip to the second track, the first is a filler
[08:01:11] <Subsentient> I'm much more into various forms of death metal, but sometimes I'm in the mood for black. Black metal is ideologically more extreme, but has a softer sound than death metal.

[09:38:44] <SoyCow3970> I can see it.
[09:40:19] <SoyCow3970> But you have to open the comments, before it will show up.
[09:44:47] <FatPhil> I will delete that story simple because your local journalist doesn't know that the past participle of shake is shaken.
[09:45:54] <FatPhil> it might be hidden behind other bits of the page by stylesheets
[09:46:07] <SoyCow3970> And the adverbial form of "simple" is "simply".

[09:52:41] <boru> Not much meat on tits.
[09:52:47] <boru> Not even great tits.
[09:53:28] <FatPhil> The only prob with this was that it was too small, so maybe another bird was substituted
[09:54:11] <boru> How was it cooked? Duck shrinks a lot when you roast it.
[09:55:24] <SoyCow3970> Such a welcoming place. Nobody warned me about the grammar nazis!
[09:57:07] <chromas> an effect known as auto-ducking
[09:57:37] <chromas> also, that's grammar nazi's
[09:57:54] <boru> I think I'm going to duck out, if you start with such awful puns.
[09:58:41] <chromas> I started with an awful pun but finished with a nice glaze

[10:02:58] <SoyCow3970> "Nazi's" is possessive, "nazis" is the correct plural.
[10:03:55] <boru> Whoosh.
[10:04:49] <chromas> its my understanding that nazi's were very possessive
[10:05:22] <boru> Their what were possessive? You're missing a noun!
[10:06:31] <chromas> they're were, as in werewolves, but in germane
[10:07:01] <boru> They wore wolves? Really?

[13:25:30] <Ingar> I"m amazed I correctly identified that as suomi ;)
[13:26:51] <FatPhil> The partitive for the language, please: suomea
[13:27:51] <Ingar> I only said 'identified' I won't pretend I know anything about it :p
[13:28:11] <FatPhil> If there's one thing I remember about Finnish it's that I still haven't got the faintest clue about the logic behind the partitive.
[13:28:53] <FatPhil> it's the non-plural plural
[13:35:16] <Ingar> reading the wiki page on it
[13:35:24] <Ingar> I don't even get the dutch case :)
[13:35:29] <t3> that's the wonder of spoken languages that developed without written alphabets, and why they are so hard to learn
[13:43:35] <FatPhil> All the pair of funny examples tells me is that sometimes academics in their field have disappeared so far up their own arse (arses? maybe I need a partitive?) that they've lost touch with reality.
[13:45:15] <Ellenor> meh
[13:45:41] <FatPhil> Almost no human languages have anything like a strict grammar, attempts to pretend the weird /ad hoc/ phrases and expressions that have become /de facto/ standard actually follow consistent codifiable rules are futile.
[13:56:41] <boru> Which ones do?
[13:57:19] <boru> I would guess Latin, perhaps, but I honestly don't know.
[14:00:02] <Ingar> church Latin maybe, I assume actual roman latin would be as chaoticas any language
[14:00:09] <Ingar> *chaotic
[14:01:02] <boru> My only other guess would be some of the East Asian languages, but those are subject to all sorts of bonkers dialects as well.
[14:01:36] <boru> Arabic would also be one of my guesses.
[14:02:00] <boru> But I will have to wait for FP to relieve me of my suspense.
[14:02:09] <boru> Where have you run off to, you feckless rogue?
[14:03:52] <Ingar> what I am m sure of is that my mother tongue is a total mess

[14:05:55] -!- inky has quit [Ping timeout: 264 seconds]
[14:13:35] <FatPhil> I was thinking of Latin, but that's because one of the linguists I used to hang around with in Cambridge claimed that he was putting together what he considered the most comprehensive grammar of written Latin, and that anything that could be parsed or generated by his grammar was "non-standard"!
