[01:47:15] <systemd> ✓ Sub-ccess! "03Auto Plants Start Halting Production Following Border Protests" (19p) -> https://soylentnews.org
[01:47:54] <tedious> As soon as I heard that some american truckers were showing up at the border I knew this was going to spread and affect both countries.
[01:56:04] <tedious> I guess this will affect semiconductor companies when the demand changes too.
[01:57:47] <AzumaHazuki> this shit has to be an inside job started by the US loonie right fringe
[02:02:06] <tedious> But that's probably nothing compared to how it's going to affect the rest of the economy.
[02:03:13] <tedious> AzumaHazuki: One of my left leaning news programs had an independent journalist on who was in ottowa at the beginning.
[02:03:39] <AzumaHazuki> actually left-leaning, or what the US refers to such and is actually center to center-right?
[02:04:17] <tedious> He said that he saw that one guy with the swastika flag and he happened to notice who the photographer was who was following him around and got all the shots that went viral.
[02:04:39] <tedious> It was justin trudeau's personal photographer.
[02:04:50] <tedious> So that's sus af right there.
[02:05:07] <tedious> And yeah they're pretty progressive.
[02:05:35] <tedious> Political misfits podcast if you want to check them out.

[04:11:38] <Runaway1956> Supposing you keep a medicine bottle of pills on your desk.
[04:11:50] <Runaway1956> You take a pill, because, it's time.
[04:12:23] <Runaway1956> Some time later you come back to your desk, and realize your bottle of pills isn't where you thought it was . . .
[04:12:44] <Runaway1956> instead, there's a medicine bottle filled with .177 BB's
[04:12:52] <Runaway1956> Hmmmmm . . . .
[04:31:30] <Runaway1956> This reminds me of someone . . . . I just can't think who at the moment.

[09:36:15] <FatPhil> written by Taika Waititi, eh?
[09:38:31] <FatPhil> I did quite like one of his movies. Hunt for the Wilderpeople, or something like that.
[09:38:36] <FatPhil> Very NZ.
[09:46:48] <FatPhil> Ah, seems the show's mostly from Bobin's pen - I know his stuff from waaay back in the UK. /The 11 O'Clock Show/ introduced me to the work of Ricky Gervais.

[16:16:13] <Bender> [SoylentNews] - Introducing a Personal Boundary for Horizon Worlds and Venues - https://sylnt.us - get-out-of-my-face^W-space
[16:24:00] <progo> what the hell is a horizon world?
[16:24:46] <janrinok> it is a new multiverse thing
[16:25:14] <FatPhil> Maybe it's horizontal worlds - so flat earth
[16:25:31] <progo> is facebook's meatspace a thing yet? what doe sit look like? all I know about it is that it's supposed to be for phone calls and avatars have nothing below the waist
[16:25:39] <FatPhil> terrible typing, they misspelt "Venus" too
[16:25:52] <progo> is it full of flying penises yet?
[16:26:17] <progo> *meatverse I meant to say
[16:26:32] <progo> the universe where you go to and leave a pile of meat in the real world
[16:26:51] <FatPhil> when did the below the waste thing kick in? the first few cringe vids from zuck had full-body avatars
[16:27:06] <progo> oh. i have no idea
[16:27:13] <FatPhil> You can't have any pudding if you don't leave your meat.
[16:27:36] <progo> if this 4 foot rule applies to the CENTER of an avatar, someone's going to find a way to put a 5 foot penis on their forehead and slap people with it
[16:27:46] <FatPhil> presumably after the first public trial, and 3 seconds later some female avatar was being groped. I'm guessing.
[16:28:10] <progo> yeah "omg there are gropers in virtual reality" has been a newsmeme for about 2 or 3 weeks
[16:28:33] <progo> this post ^ sucks. it has no context for people who have never held a VR headset
[16:29:26] <FatPhil> Did they sleep though Eve online, and 2nd life, and every other attempt to do the same thing before?
[16:29:40] <FatPhil> there's *precisely nothing* new about the metaverse.
[16:29:49] <progo> there used to be raids of flying penises in Second Life
[16:30:06] <progo> I'm not a VR head. I've just heard of these things
[16:30:25] <janrinok> FatPhil, that is what somebody else said: https://soylentnews.org
[16:30:28] <systemd> ^ 03The Metaverse is a New Word for an Old Idea: SoylentNews Submission
[16:30:48] <FatPhil> I even remember 'demos' of VR interactions in VRML worlds back in ~1996, when VRML was new.
[16:31:18] <progo> I remember hearing VRML would revolutionize web browsing, and didn't believe it
[16:31:42] <FatPhil> Yeah, it died before it even began to take off.
[16:32:02] <progo> I THINK Second Life was/is more functionality than hype
[16:32:11] <progo> it's a sandbox. it has certain capabilities. people like it
[16:32:47] <FatPhil> I did once see an "art gallery" in VRML. It was just an extremely slow way of looking at porn. No idea why all the art was porn, I must have entered the wrong gallery.
[16:33:08] <janrinok> that's what they all say

[17:09:51] <chromas> and if you've not heard of it, it's exactly what you thin it is
[17:14:50] <Tekk> It's dead, isn't it?
[17:16:24] <chromas> No release in awhile but there's still activity on the git repo three months ago
[17:17:20] <Tekk> And it's also still on python 2.7

[22:31:36] <FatPhil> All events that are scored by a panel of judges should just be scrapped.
[22:40:49] <Bytram> ?? So, pick just one (possibly biased) person to judge the event? Or, a panel of judges (and average/throw out the outliers), or what do you propose???
[22:56:29] <FatPhil> scrapping the event, I'm not sure what was unclear about that.
[22:58:16] <FatPhil> There are attempts to introduce AI evaluation of some "sports", but there are interesting complications when you do that.
[23:14:27] <Bytram> let the "games" begin :?
[23:14:34] <Bytram> let the "games" begin :/
