[03:03:13] <tedious> I think the problem was with irc.sylnt.us but I'm not 100% sure.

[05:32:46] <chromas> Is there a Rule 34 but for silly ideas?
[05:43:12] <Runaway1956> It's best to encrypt your DNS requests with random keys so no one can ever figure out what you're asking for . . . .
[05:43:22] <Runaway1956> . . . . not even the DNS servers!

[11:33:31] <systemd> https://youtube.com - Can Ukraine Actually WIN This? (10:06; 626,703 views; 👍48,691 👎[hidden by butthurt Google employees])
[11:33:45] <FatPhil> over a week old, alas, but some stuff I'd not seen before today
[12:32:30] <FatPhil> My palemoon has suddenly lost the ability to drag tabs around within and between browser windows :/
[12:44:55] <janrinok> I am not aware of PM changing unless you have just updated it
[12:45:36] <janrinok> I can't test mine - I am on the wrong machine
[12:45:50] <Bender> [SoylentNews] - As China Quietly Joins Sanctions Against Russia, Xi Might be Too Rational to Risk Arming Putin - https://sylnt.us
[13:04:24] <FatPhil> It always used to work, and I've not updated it, it's just turned cranky since it was last restarted (about a couple of days ago)
[13:05:10] <FatPhil> bloody annoying, I do a lot of tab shuffling to categorise and prioritise shit.
[13:14:22] <sqrlgrrl> long-term it's unclear how putin could possibly win. if ukraine keeps up the resistance it'll be a permanent and very painful money drain for putin and russia.
[13:14:50] <sqrlgrrl> best outcome for russia would be putin being assassinated imo. by someone high up and close to him.
[13:15:35] <sqrlgrrl> if they spin it right they could blame it all on putin and russia might be able to recover.
[13:21:54] <FatPhil> Yeah, I get the feeling that we're about mid-1938 presently. There are a lot of parallels with the Anschluss (and there are Sudetenland equivalences too). Unless the course of history takes a different path this time, I'm seeing a lot more rhyming up ahead.
[13:22:16] <FatPhil> Which is just peachy for the smallest country along the Russian border :/
[13:44:32] <FatPhil> (ignoring the fake countries which Russia has created through invasion in the last 28 years)

[13:53:02] <Runaway1956> Palemoon 29.4.4 here FatPhil - I haven't used it in weeks, just fired it up to test drag and drop tabs -
[13:53:09] <Runaway1956> It works for me

[15:07:36] <FatPhil> yeah, it worked 2 days ago. I was initially wondering if it was the mouse failing to hold a click, as it's been doing a bit of that recently, but I can drag select. It's just this browser instance that seems to have gone full retard.
[15:29:36] <Runaway1956> sqrlgrrl - I really don't believe Russia intends to occupy much of Ukraine long term, that has been popular wisdom from two months ago
[15:30:14] <Runaway1956> demographics forbid it - Russia, like most of the rest of the "civilized" world has a shrinking population
[15:30:32] <Runaway1956> They are squandering bodies now, because there are no replacements in the pipeline

[21:42:58] <FatPhil> we had a proper academic virologist who was an advisor to the govt saying for about 2 months "the covid passes don't do anything".
[21:43:19] <FatPhil> govt ignored her, justincase
[21:43:32] <FatPhil> all the data proved she was right

[22:12:50] <Runaway1956> I'll bet in privileged white neighborhoods, the stars have more points.
[22:12:53] <ar> it kindof looks like the telescope has astigmatism
[22:14:19] <Runaway1956> I want to focus the telescope where there ain't no stars, to see what's there
[22:14:33] <Runaway1956> probably Cthulhu
[22:16:39] <ar> probably more stars, but redshifted even further
[23:39:39] <FatPhil> oh, jeebus - apparently there are school children here (in very dense russian-speaking areas, >80% probably) who are repeating pro-putin propaganda as facts.
