[02:06:41] <ted-ious> That was where they put cardboard up in the windows so nobody could watch the counting.

[06:29:21] <SoyCow3587> why the banning on IRC?
[07:42:01] <FatPhil> purely to annoy you
[07:42:28] -!- mode/#soylent [+b *!~924663*@*] by FatPhil
[07:42:43] <FatPhil> used yesterday and the day before, IIRC.
[07:52:38] <SoyCow3587> Wot? No kick?
[07:53:39] <SoyCow3587> You might have a rouge and randy SoyCow that could say something disruptive, and impinge upon the fine reputation of SoylentNews.
[08:19:37] <chromas> Why would the soycow be red? From all the huffing and puffing?
[08:30:58] <FatPhil> hypoxia due to head up arse?

[10:07:46] <FatPhil> we've been silent on politics for half a day, well, apart from that whining sound.

[10:09:28] <janrinok> somebody should make some beef burgers!
[10:11:46] <janrinok> FatPhil, I was referring to last night. I was in bed and doing my final check of the site....

[12:29:54] <systemd> ^ 03Mark Zuckerberg’s Message to Meta Employees
[12:33:24] <FatPhil> heh, and as per usual the market vultures have sent $META up 5% premarket
[12:43:01] <fab23> intresting, they don't relay on an employee leeking the info to the media and publish it on their own
[12:57:32] <FatPhil> leaks look bad
[13:15:22] <fab23> sure, and in case of Meta, communication is needed anyway because the stock is public traded
[13:15:31] <fab23> I guess

[15:10:40] <fab23> FatPhil: have not heard that yet, I started to call him Murks, but this probably only works in German

[16:14:17] <progo> I'd love to see a breakdown of what those hundreds of millions of meta and twitter employees do / did
[16:14:53] <progo> is Facebook and Instagram application code that big?
[16:15:09] <progo> how many people does it take to sell ads through a computer-mediated ad bidding system?
[16:15:49] <progo> I know Zuckerberg bet the farm on hiring a whole army of eastern european slaves to make Metaverse a few years ago
[16:16:08] <progo> not sure what so many of those people did, specifically, either

[16:53:45] <FatPhil> Does the metaverse have its own crypto exchange? How are you able to use a wide range of different craptocurrencies?
[16:57:14] <FatPhil> Looks like there's an in-house crapto called "sandbox": https://www.tradingview.com
