[02:03:06] <Deucalion> Happy New Year as and when it gets to you. Good riddance 2021. Here's to a better 2022 :D
[02:07:35] <AzumaHazuki> we cna only hope
[02:07:42] <AzumaHazuki> but honestly as of now i am not optimistic
[02:08:04] <AzumaHazuki> calling it now: 2022 is the year a bunch of ice sheets just lose their shit
[02:13:31] <Deucalion> wtf is "ice sheets" a pseudonym for?
[02:14:21] <progo> never heard that one before
[02:14:28] <progo> my strategy is just keep rolling with it
[02:14:39] <progo> take care of yourself and expect worse next year
[02:16:18] <Deucalion> Prepare for the worst but work toward the best. The second you accept defeat then the only way is down for sure. Chin up progo.
[02:39:41] <Bytram> =g "ice sheets"
[02:39:41] <systemd> https://en.wikipedia.org - Ice sheet - Wikipedia
[02:41:19] <progo> and ice sheets lose their shit?
[02:41:22] <Bytram> =g "ice sheets" "jargon"
[02:41:23] <systemd> https://www.dw.com - Climate talk: decoding the global warming jargon | Environment | All ...
[02:43:08] <Bytram> what is the name of that we site that catered to (sometimes crass or vulgar) jargon?
[02:43:10] -!- inky has quit [Remote host closed the connection]
[02:44:16] <Deucalion> Maybe Azuma is alluding to global warming causing glacial erosion and ice sheets calving off.... /?

[02:46:19] <progo> and I'm really pissed that the dns nanny blocks it on my work laptop
[02:46:19] <Deucalion> I can imagine an ice sheet melting into the sea.... but not really running around with an AK-47 having "lost its shit" :D

[02:49:57] <Deucalion> progo, given the landscape for infiltration, ransomware etc.etc.etc. work machines are locked down to the hilt, as are work phones. It's justifiable paranoia. Don't use your work devices for personal stuff. In fact don't let them share the same network.
[02:50:29] <progo> as it happens I was looking in urban dictionary BECAUSE of a thing I needed to know for work
[02:50:33] <progo> I can't recall what it was
[02:51:02] <progo> urban dictionary is a legitimate resource

[02:59:05] <mrpg> Happy new year.
[02:59:29] <mrpg> Here's to another lousy year

[03:16:29] <Deucalion> mrpg, Happy New Year! If you go into it aiming for another lousy year then no doubt it will deliver that to you in spades. Instead, Head up, breathe in and aspire for better, do something, any small thing that gives you more pride in you. Look to the sky not the pavement.You may feel down but you are a long way from out. Do not cave - FIGHT.
[03:25:19] <Bytram> mrpg: hI!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
[03:25:56] <Bytram> wOO hOO! H A P P Y N E W Y E A R ! ! !
[03:26:07] <mrpg> Hi friends, good to read you
[03:26:23] <Bytram> SAME!
[03:26:26] <mrpg> I's 12 26 am here
[03:27:20] <Bytram> I noticed you popped in and posted some stories -- thank you yery much!
[03:28:06] <Bytram> you are 2 hours ahead of me...
[03:28:21] <Bytram> what's it like i the future? ;)
[03:28:30] <Bytram> what's it like in the future? ;)
[03:28:57] <mrpg> Well, about the future, we are using russian letters for covid variants :-)
[03:29:42] <mrpg> And they are running out. Next: chemical elements from the priodic table!
[03:30:16] <Bytram> Any port in a storm, right? Here's wishing they work out for you!
[03:31:05] <Bytram> alpha beta gamma delta epsilon ... =)
[03:32:22] <Bytram> iota kappa lambda mu nu omicron pi rho ...
[03:33:57] <mrpg> tera peta iota
[03:35:48] * Bytram took so many maths and physics course in college when they exhausted A-Za-Z they just jumped to the Greek and used them... and when THAT ran out I was introduced to some Hebrew letters too!
[03:37:29] <mrpg> What's wrong about x1, x2, x3 ... x1048576, ...
[03:37:44] <Bytram> I forgot most of it, but they did a great job of teaching me how to *learn*! I'm extremely grateful for that!!
[03:39:05] <Bytram> Oh, now don't get me started on my computer programming classes =)
[03:47:19] <mrpg> How's the queue tonight
[03:47:44] <Deucalion> The majority skill you need in "IT" is knowing how to learn, being willing to always learn as it's an ever advancing (galloping field). It's exhausting sometimes but surely it beats being an assembly line worker putting the same widget on the same machine on the prod line for 50 yrs. Glass half full and all that :D

[03:51:20] <mrpg> I'm watching a program about green hydrogen
[03:51:21] <mrpg> =g green hydrogen
[03:51:22] <systemd> https://www.greentechmedia.com - So, What Exactly Is Green Hydrogen? | Greentech Media
[03:53:21] <mrpg> Green hydrogen is hydrogen that is generated entirely by renewable energy
[03:57:48] <Bytram> sadly, when all the conversions and (de)compressions are taken into account, something like half the energy is losst in the process. Would make more sense to use it directly. (Assuming solar power as the energy source)

[07:03:06] <Subsentient> Happy new year. I don't really expect much from it. More of the gradual decline we've been seeing, but we'll see.

[10:55:07] <FatPhil> To you too, and everyone.
[10:58:40] <janrinok> ditto to you and your other half - I take it you have finished mopping the floor?
