[06:43:55] <FatPhil> why are we wasting our time with the travails of third-world countries?
[06:47:01] <janrinok> we are supposed to care about those that don't have the same benefits of more advance countries such as Algeria, DRC or Kyrgyzstan.
[06:47:18] <FatPhil> at least they have pretty flags
[06:47:32] <janrinok> fair point
[06:47:37] <FatPhil> well, apart from algeria, that's just vomit
[06:48:29] <janrinok> Yes but they do have health care...
[06:49:37] <FatPhil> eah, but compare that with the thermonuclear petanque of some other nations, which would you rather
[06:50:47] <FatPhil> thermonuclear petanque: https://upload.wikimedia.org
[06:56:02] <FatPhil> Now if one of the thirty accounts ari registered today was called "ThermonuclearPetanque", at least I could attempt to laugh.

[06:57:09] <FatPhil> But if it's just going to be another variation on "AccountyMcAccountface", he needs to realise that that joke was dead years ago.
[06:58:05] <janrinok> well he has been dead for even longer!
[07:07:35] <FatPhil> braindead, certainly

[07:10:45] <systemd> ^ 03Mississippi capital: Water everywhere, not a drop to drink
[07:11:22] <FatPhil> I've not read the story, but if they can't get the "nor any" quote right, they're illiterate bastards.
[07:26:25] <Bender> [SoylentNews] - Ex-Soviet Leader Mikhail Gorbachev Dead at 91 - https://sylnt.us - RIP
[07:31:58] <FatPhil> I was listening to a radio broadcast from Ilves (one of our ex-presidents) the other day, and he said that under the soviet system our productivity was *one eighth* of what it is under capitalism. That, and we have way fewer people carted off to death camps.
[07:38:10] <FatPhil> and in other news, nothing was top secret: https://i.imgur.com

[08:20:09] <janrinok> FatPhil, that picture horrifies me. Almost any one of those should only be read in special secure locations and would result in a severe sentence in court for anyone else.
[08:28:35] <FatPhil> the trump one?
[08:29:12] <FatPhil> the "funny" thing is how well it fits - Trump wasn't particularly funny either, it was only cringe humour.
[08:38:42] -!- AccountMcCountface [AccountMcCountface!~54ef31d4@84.239.pr.yqs] has joined #soylent
[08:39:39] <FatPhil> Hi Ari
[08:39:49] <AccountMcCountface> Just wanted to report, we seem to have a member threatening violence and doxxing in a journal. Something ought to be done.

[08:40:03] -!- AccountMcCountface was kicked from #soylent by FatPhil!~phil@Soylent/Staff/Editor/FatPhil [AccountMcCountface]
[08:40:52] <janrinok> are we supposed to use a crystal ball to divine which journal, or which comment you are referring to?
[08:41:43] <FatPhil> the more you stare into crystal balls, the more the crystal balls stare back at you -- Kant
[08:42:04] <FatPhil> not necessarily an exact quote, but he spoke foreignish
[08:42:32] <inz> He probably meant the drag-stripper, crystal, and his/her balls, it was just lost in translation.

[08:43:55] <janrinok> well, he literally asked for it
[08:44:11] <inz> Oh how many VPNs must a "man" walk down.
[08:44:20] <FatPhil> I don't think he undertands how easy up-arrow, deleeeeete, paste is
[08:44:50] <FatPhil> unless you're a tanky, "men" have balls. there's no evidence of that from our ari
[08:45:29] <inz> Fair point.
[08:45:54] <FatPhil> However, I'm happy to see that indeed, I can get him dancing to my every whim by suggesting nickname patterns that he could use.
[08:46:04] <FatPhil> dance for me, gimpboy!
[08:46:51] * FatPhil checks newly created account names for references to gimps, it normally doesn't take him too long...
[08:47:46] <janrinok> don't get too excited - he will probably let me use my mouse in a bit until he realises that we are doing very little to counter his efforts. We will have to get him to learn how to roll over or do tricks though.,...
[08:48:12] -!- AzumaHazuki has quit [Remote host closed the connection]
[08:48:43] <FatPhil> he rolls over in his own shit the whole time, we shouldn't be encouraging that
[08:48:55] -!- norayr [norayr!~norayr@178.160.ntr.vs] has parted #soylent
[08:52:57] <janrinok> he is posting submissions for me to delete on #editorial
[09:00:20] <FatPhil> I wish i could help out, but I have to go to the head office of my bank and smear shit all over their windows. And their carpets. And their desks. And their staff, if I complaint doesn't get addresses.
[09:00:30] <FatPhil> I?
[09:00:40] <FatPhil> my, obviously.
[09:00:55] <janrinok> laters
[09:01:19] <FatPhil> This bank, literally, has one job. And it completely fails to do it.
[09:02:32] <FatPhil> g/f started an a/c with them on the same day that I did, last November, and she closed her account within a week because it so totally utterly completely was unable to perform the single task the account was opened for. (which we told them when opening the account)

[09:08:36] <inz> FatPhil, are you trying to make a figuratively shitty bank a literally shitty bank?
[09:10:15] -!- norayr [norayr!~norayr@178.160.ntr.vs] has parted #soylent
[09:19:37] <FatPhil> there reaches a point where you simply can't tell the difference.
[09:20:17] <FatPhil> the human mind if very efficient, and it reuses circuits already developed for one purpose for other purposes
[09:21:11] <FatPhil> the reason harrowing stories sicken you is because the same bit of the brain that reacts to actual sickness responds to the news in the same way
[09:25:16] <FatPhil> Oh, how FMRI has permanently deconstructed all of the written arts

[10:00:27] <SoyCow5942> I think the FatPhilFace was referencing a Runaway Incidentm, in the Runaway journal. Legal liabilities, I sees 'em.
[10:01:23] <Runaway1956> Is that you, Gimpy McGimpface?
[10:01:55] <SoyCow5942> Don't want to be here when the Feds show up!
[10:02:46] <Runaway1956> That's fine, I'll tell the feds which way you went.
