[07:42:30] <Vali> [janrinok] Runaway - it was not who we thought it was..
[07:43:29] <Vali> Slowly dawns the realization of how much they have been had.
[07:52:38] <janrinok> No, just a simple error. Apologies given and accepted.
[08:02:30] <Vali> No ,I don't think so. That Soylentil is probably never coming back, like so many others that encounter the toxic environment that has taken over SN.
[08:03:39] <Vali> Apologize to me, janrinok, for I am the Norse God of vengeance. For all the good it will do SoylentNews.
[08:04:04] <janrinok> you're a prat
[08:10:25] <Vali> Karma's a bitch, especially when you deserve it.
[08:10:38] <janrinok> 'That Soylentil' and I have exchanged several emails - problem resolved. He is quite happy to remain on the site.
[08:11:18] <janrinok> My karma is currently at 50 - where is yours? Ah yes, minus figures on numerous accounts. Now, you were saying?
[08:11:49] <Vali> You know he is actually _Loki_ aristarchus, using one of his sockpuppet accounts, and giving you the run-away-around.
[08:14:45] <janrinok> What lives in that empty space between your ears? Grow up.

[08:31:56] <AnartechSystems> Hi Vali.
[08:32:30] <AnartechSystems> I have not played on IRC sonce OzOrg was oz.org, but I have been lurking the public logs to keep an eye on the shitshow this ari character has been causing
[08:32:48] AnartechSystems is now known as SoyGuest57475
[08:33:10] <SoyGuest57475> Janrinok did indeed reach out and and apologise, which I happily accepted
[08:33:37] <SoyGuest57475> It would be toxic morons like you keeping me away from the joint, not him or fatphil
[08:33:42] <SoyGuest57475> pull your head in my dude
[08:33:46] -!- SoyGuest57475 has quit [Client Quit]
[08:36:51] <Bender> [SoylentNews] - Some Cloud-based AI Systems are Returning to On-premises Data Centers - https://sylnt.us - trying-to-remember-how-we-did-it-before
[08:39:27] <inz> Round and round it goes.
[08:40:14] <janrinok> seems there is nothing new in IT - just somebody reinventing what we did a few years ago
[08:40:34] <Vali> Hi AnartechSystems! Good to see you here!
[08:40:46] <inz> which was reinventing what previous generation did some more years ago
[08:41:08] <janrinok> ad infinitum...
[08:41:23] <inz> ad nauseam
[08:42:47] <Vali> Deja vu, all over again. Those who do not know their history, are condemned to repeat it.
[08:49:44] <inz> Straight from the horse's mouth...
[09:20:32] <FatPhil> straight from the ass' arse
[09:21:00] <janrinok> I toyed with saying something similar.... :)
[09:32:55] <Vali> You guys are presiding over the destruction of the hope that was SoylentNews. Sorry you don't see it. But, at least, there will be no off-topic distractions from the discussions that are not happening.
[09:33:26] <janrinok> So are you leaving again?
[09:34:53] <Vali> Who?
[09:36:08] <Vali> Like I said, Norse God of vengeance, just here to watch the Gotterdammerung of SoylentNews.
[09:37:43] <Vali> And I also am the next person janrnok should apologize to for mistaken identity.
[09:52:22] <FatPhil> you misunderstand - we only criticise you because you act like a twat - it matters not who you are, or in whose basement you dwell.
[10:17:27] <inz> As Gertrude Stein once said: an ass is an ass is an ass is an ass
[10:18:09] <inz> Or something along those lines
[10:20:48] <FatPhil> And as Matthew said: by their deeds you will know them.
[10:29:21] <Vali> But who are they?
[10:29:38] <janrinok> I thought the site collapsed almost a month ago - or so the prophecy claimed? Yet here we are, still going strong.

[11:06:14] <Vali> Strong? Front page comments in single didgits, only journal entries getting any discussion. Dead. Leading. The Dead.
[11:07:37] <Vali> Any other problems with SN, while we are on the topic?
[11:11:22] <inz> You can see the biggest problems in your mirror.
[11:13:06] <Vali> Who? What mirror?
[11:14:24] <Vali> Keep the unfocused hate-fest going as long as you can. Hate the imagined cause of your downfall. It will avail you not, and only hasten the demise of SN. Seriously.
[11:15:35] <Vali> And find some better tech stories to put on the front page, OK?
[11:20:19] -!- Vali has quit [Ping timeout: 264 seconds]
[11:24:21] <inz> That nick seemed quite appropriate for their chosen role, in Finnish you can use the phrase "vali vali" to reply to someone who complains excessively (i.e. "valittaa")

[11:51:23] <janrinok> The journals are part of this site. We have moved the the crap speak from the main pages to the journals. You are confusing quantity and quality. This has achieved exactly what was intended.
[12:44:42] <Runaway1956> OMG, IT'S MONDAY!!!!
[12:55:29] <Runaway1956> This Monday business happens much too often if you ask me.
[12:56:54] <janrinok> I just call it Sunday 2 - it makes me feel much better.
