[07:01:42] <Benefactotium> Another aristarchus sub has snuck onto the front page? Can't stop the signal, Mal!
[07:03:14] <janrinok> oh really, you mean the merged submission made by 'upstart'. How impressive your hacking skills have become - Oh, Impotent One.
[07:03:41] <janrinok> ... and another account just killed too.
[07:05:51] <janrinok> I'm surprised you haven't added a claim that all upstart subs are really yours. It would go with all the other lies that you frequently try to peddle.
[07:05:57] <Benefactotium> Kill more accounts, janrinock! Kill them all,
[07:06:13] <janrinok> Only those belonging to banned people
[07:06:49] <janrinok> Another 5 new members recently and not one of them was banned.
[07:07:22] <Benefactotium> Actually, gamer news is not at all interesting to Soylentils, any more than an Etheriuim Merge.
[07:07:42] <janrinok> Not interesting to you maybe, but to others it might be.
[07:08:01] <Benefactotium> So you missed the fact that all five were actuallly aristarchus socks?
[07:09:05] <janrinok> Nope, because they are not.
[07:09:29] <Benefactotium> Yes, of course they are not. For Real!
[07:10:01] <janrinok> We have way of checking nowadays - but you won't have noticed because yours never get that far.
[07:10:50] <Benefactotium> The "confirm" step really does nothing, unless you are already being lead down a garden path.
[07:11:11] <janrinok> as I suspected - you haven't experienced it
[07:11:49] <Benefactotium> Anal probes are beyond the Pale, janrinok, and I insist you stop using them, immediately!
[07:13:53] <Benefactotium> #probe janrinok
[07:14:27] <Benefactotium> Hmm, he's made of meat!

[07:18:05] <janrinok> Ah, the Impotent Ari has been spanked sufficiently to make him leave
[07:18:32] <janrinok> He'll be trying to create a new account just so he can see what we have.
[07:19:15] <inz> arifartchus and upstart (the init daemon, not the bot) have something in common - both are totally obsolete.

[07:44:00] <FatPhil> Damn, I missed today's arispank. However, it's early, there's time for another
[07:44:27] <FatPhil> Finally, all the preparations for the holiday are sorted. Just in time, we leave this afternoon.
[07:45:13] <FatPhil> Not been on a proper holiday for many years, it's all a bit stressful.
[07:45:59] <janrinok> I thought holidays were meant to relieve stress - not cause it?
[07:46:28] <janrinok> Mind you, picking a war zone is probably not the most relaxing holiday to choose.....
[07:46:36] <FatPhil> in theory, but we've never been to the caucasus before, so want to get the west, the capital, the east, and the warzone
[07:47:04] <janrinok> how long are you away for a week, 10 days?
[07:47:27] <FatPhil> Looks like we only get a day trip to Armenia, but there's so much in Georgia to see. Yup, 10 days.
[07:48:18] <janrinok> I did Kazakhstan and Kyrgyzstan about 20 years ago. Nice to visit and see, but I wouldn't want to live there.
[07:49:09] <FatPhil> The only Georgians I know are lovely. The only Armenians I know are cranks or toxic.
[07:49:32] <FatPhil> Don't know any Azeri, or Chechens, or ...
[07:49:59] <janrinok> The people are usually OK as individuals. It is when you get them in groups (arguments, wars, politics etc) that you see a very different side.
[07:50:27] <janrinok> They probably thought the same about Brits too
[07:51:17] <FatPhil> I don't think the Brits mucked around that much with that precise region. I know we fucked the kurds, but that's a few non-existent borders away
[07:51:55] <FatPhil> This will probably be as close to "Persia" as I ever get, as I don't see myself ever going to its roots.
[07:52:25] <FatPhil> half of the trip will be in the east, so plenty of prehistoric and early settlements.
[07:52:56] <janrinok> I got on great with the Kurds - they even kept in contact for a year or two after I left.
[07:53:22] <FatPhil> In which country?
[07:53:56] <janrinok> N Iraq
[07:54:12] <FatPhil> Ahah.
[07:55:35] <FatPhil> Incoming SMS... our flight is delayed by over an hour - so we'll arrive at 03:00 tomorrow :/
[07:56:04] <FatPhil> Just great for the stress levels
[07:58:44] <janrinok> lol
[08:01:08] <janrinok> just starting my online french lessons for this week. Still monitoring...
[08:03:15] <FatPhil> I met my first self-identifying Assyrian just a few months back.
[08:03:45] <FatPhil> There was enough overlap between my Arabic and his Assyrian that we could have the simplest of conversations.
[08:04:54] <chromas> https://www.msn.com
[08:04:54] <systemd> ^ 03MSN
[08:05:34] <FatPhil> Absolutely lovely bloke, and he was so happy to find a foreigner with whom he could communicate in his mother-ish tongue. (He was a Swede by nationality, dunno when he or his family arrived)

[08:20:43] <FatPhil> So why didn't you respond with "no way!" when janrinok mentioned Kurds?

[17:49:41] <Runaway1956> I think maybe a problem with the site, although I'm unable to say what, why, or how
[17:49:58] <janrinok> it is probably due for a reboot
[17:50:10] <Runaway1956> We are apparently having a temporary problem with our database (or maybe our random formkey generator). Please try again later.
[17:50:10] <Runaway1956> Chances are, you're behind a firewall or proxy, or clicked the Back button to accidentally reuse a form. Please try again. If the problem persists, and all other options have been tried, contact the site administrator.
[17:50:32] <Runaway1956> Couldn't moderate or post a reply, so I tried a different browser, with the same results
[17:50:44] <janrinok> That error is usually caused by the new browsers' using private tabs
[17:51:30] <Runaway1956> OK, but I don't use 'em . . . lemme poke a bit from my side
[17:51:42] <janrinok> click to a new tab to reply doesn't get any info from the previous window, including cookie data - or at least that is what I think is the problem.
[17:53:24] <Bytram> I am making progress

[18:05:13] <janrinok> I've just had a 504 - system is in need of a reboot
[18:05:39] <janrinok> we have had several unexplained occurrences this week. I should have seen it coming

[18:10:07] <janrinok> I've just spent time editing another story and the system chewed it up and lost it
[18:21:49] <janrinok> and it has just done it again. Contact made with mechanicjay who is just going into a meeting. He has observed that something is wrong and will take a look at it when he comes out of the meeting.
[18:22:05] <janrinok> It might crash in the meantime.....
