[00:12:14] <tedious> sqrlgrrl: The only so-called proof of a tank being captured I saw was later shown to be a faked photo.
[00:13:06] <tedious> I'm sure all those american missiles have blown up lots of them but capturing a tank is a different job.

[05:00:20] <tedious> Anybody heard anything more about finland joining nato?
[05:00:33] <tedious> That's supposed to be another putin red line.
[05:01:15] <tedious> If these war mongers get their way we're going to be right back to the cuban missile crisis.

[06:57:27] <MightyChickadeee> We are all equals, here.
[07:19:00] <MightyChickadeee> Any Aristarchus subs in the queue? Or, any aristarchus comments to be Spam modded by the Mighty FatPhil? Soon, there will be not VPN ports, or TOR exit nodes, from which any anonymous AC Soylentils will be able to post. Probably end up with post nubmers life we have had recently '
[07:48:57] <chromas> Why would a non-aristarchus have such an interest in aristarchus diddlings?
[07:53:43] <MightyChickadeee> Perhaps he is a Republican? Just Guessing.
[08:00:09] <chromas> According to him, if he were then we'd be running all of his subs all day long
[08:11:37] <MightyChickadeee> Who is this "him"? Ari isn't here, chromas. You killed him.
[08:16:11] <chromas> I hope so
[08:19:32] <MightyChickadeee> Which means, you are arguing against some other soylentil?
[08:25:05] <chromas> No
[08:25:27] <MightyChickadeee> Yes,
[08:27:14] <chromas> There was no argument. Also, if you think you know the answer, then why ask a dumb question?
[08:29:29] <MightyChickadeee> No.

[09:36:45] <FatPhil> chromas++ first of the two images. was chatting to the g/f on that very topic over lunch yesterday. we wouldn't let a nation state have that power, why do we let a company?!?!?

[10:13:36] <FatPhil> I'm gonna be controversial here, I apologise in advance if I offend anyone, but what's the deal with "sliced bread"?!?!? What's so great about that? Cordless kettles - that's the best invention in the last 100 years. Nothing else comes close.
[10:16:32] <Bender> [SoylentNews] - People Say They're Using Ukrainian Airbnbs to Send Money to Locals - https://sylnt.us
[10:39:46] <FatPhil> Does google street view work in .ua for anyone presently, as it doesn't for me
[10:40:08] <FatPhil> Wondering if google's disabled it in case it helps the russkies
[10:50:38] <FatPhil> RIP Shane Warne
[12:49:05] <Runaway1956> There was an article recently FatPhil that Google was shutting down streetview in ua
[12:50:55] <Runaway1956> https://www.reuters.com
[12:50:56] <systemd> ^ 03Google temporarily disables Google Maps live traffic data in Ukraine
[12:53:16] <Runaway1956> It's rather amusing in that, Google is now protecting people from a bad actor,
[12:53:36] <Runaway1956> but under normal circumstances, if you have nothing to hide, you have nothing to fear
[12:54:05] <Runaway1956> like, there are no bad actors who might abuse the data until Russia attacks
[13:03:56] <FatPhil> it's back now, it seems
[13:11:54] <FatPhil> someone else in the last half day also noticed it both not working and half working, so google have all the monkeys with spanners working at full pelt messing things up
[13:13:19] <sqrlgrrl> https://www.youtube.com
[13:13:21] <systemd> ^ 03How American conservatives turned against the vaccine
[13:13:28] <Runaway1956> They need to fire the monkeys, hire orangutans
[13:27:02] <Bytram> just because Google tuned off the display of live traffic updates, does not mean they are not collecting the data -- and it's not a big leap to thinking they are forwarding that data to certain agencies, under a sweet contract, too
[13:27:57] <Bytram> break time
[13:28:00] <Runaway1956> The video you linked to phil - at 12:30 you get to the core of the whole misinformation thing
[13:31:13] <Runaway1956> To clarify, Dems had already spent three years pushing misinformation as hard as possible, so it was no great leap to distrust the Dem political machine about the Wuhan Flu
[13:33:06] <Runaway1956> Humanitarian evacuations in Ukraine - - -
[13:33:27] <Runaway1956> Every single ceasefire I've ever read about, in all places and times,
[13:33:42] <Runaway1956> one side immediately accuses the other of breaking the ceasefire
[13:34:01] <Runaway1956> like clockwork, ceasefire is declared, and 30 minutes later the accusations fly
[13:34:01] <janrinok> I thought we had a polltical channel for this sort of thing
[13:41:02] <Runaway1956> need moar coffee for the webz spiderz - everything loading slowly
[13:54:53] <FatPhil> which vid was that?
[13:58:15] <Runaway1956> I apologize, I looked at it crosseyed or something - sqrlgrrl linked to it

[16:43:40] <FatPhil> sqrlgrrl: do you know of any state-wide data on fox news viewing figures? I can apply the same sorting that I do to the other stats at fatphil.org/CoViD/
[16:44:18] <FatPhil> or if there's any other stats you want me to apply the same thing to, feel free to suggest them

[18:02:54] <Bytram> chromas: Hi! I have NOT received and e-mails from the site for at least two days. Have you received any?
[18:03:32] <chromas> Maybe yesterday. Not sure. I usually delete them when I see them
[18:03:49] <chromas> But I for one am totally shocked if slashd died yet again
[18:04:03] <Bytram> thx for the info
[18:04:35] <Bytram> has anybody else received any e-mails?
[18:05:18] <chromas> ssh in and check out the logs
[18:06:39] <chromas> You might be able to find something in the sql log in between all the root login attempts
[18:08:03] <Bytram> reluctant to do that -- lose my screen session and it's a pain to re-establish :(
[18:08:26] <chromas> is screen still around?
[18:08:54] <chromas> did the boxes get rebooted or something?
[18:10:17] <Bytram> dunno, will check
[18:10:23] <Bytram> tx
[18:10:38] <chromas> well if they didn't, I don't know why your screen sesh would be gone
[18:10:59] * chromas sees Bytram on the thing
[18:11:53] <chromas> huh, I don't remember getting a login cowsay before
[18:13:23] * Bytram just noticed a bunch of newly-delivered e-mails =)
[18:15:11] <Bytram> I do remember the cowsay
[18:15:15] <chromas> What'd you do?
[18:16:15] <chromas> Perhaps mechanicjay or someone popped in real quick to give slashd the spankin' it deserves
[18:16:29] <janrinok> Bytram, I have received SN emails each day including today
[18:16:40] -!- AzumaHazuki [AzumaHazuki!~hazuki@the.end.of.time] has joined #soylent
[18:16:45] <Bytram> nothing -- just mentioned this in a couple channels
[18:17:08] <Bytram> janrinok: thanks!
[18:19:17] <janrinok> chromas, I received my emails at 0840 UTC today - so nothing appears to be the result of anyone's recent actions to fix a mail problem
[18:19:31] <Bytram> there are still a couple e-mail accts that do not took updated, will look closer in a few minutes
[18:20:02] <chromas> Should probably still kill slashd just in case :)
[18:20:08] <chromas> maybe create a cron job to do it
[18:23:23] <Bytram> oldest e-mail I received was from 2022-03-01 Linode payment receipt
[18:35:37] <Bytram> e-mails seem to be coming in when I go to folder directly on Thunderbird, but not when I pick "get all new messages"
[18:55:00] -!- AzumaHazuki has quit [Remote host closed the connection]
[19:07:20] <chromas> Well you already got them
[19:07:27] <chromas> also, sounds like a thunderbird issue
[19:07:44] <janrinok> I agree
[19:08:40] <chromas> if rehash were dead, that would stop it from sending you emails, but wouldn't stop you from accessing the ones you already have on the sn server
[19:10:11] <Bytram> chromas: janrinok: makes sense. Seems to be a problem at my end, but
[19:11:20] <Bytram> story being last-read timestamp still seems flaky.
[19:45:59] <Bender> [SoylentNews] - Elon Musk Warns to Use Starlink 'With Caution' in Ukraine - https://sylnt.us
[20:36:55] <FatPhil> because he put in back doors for the russians, or why?
[20:39:46] <Bytram> FatPhil: Receivers are *also* transmitters. Basically RF says "shoot me"
[21:12:42] <FatPhil> only if signs of life = "shoot me", and we aren't there yet.
[21:21:27] <Runaway1956> If it moves, shoot it. If it don't move, shoot it anyway. Recon by fire.
[21:22:30] <Runaway1956> I had no idea that Ukraine was sitting on some huge oil and gas deposits
[21:23:13] <Runaway1956> I mean, I knew that Shell was looking at Ukraine, but holy crap, they have a LOT of petro!

[23:51:11] <Bytram> with that help with the non-updares of of *New* stories?
[23:51:49] <mechanicjay> Bytram: probably?
