[00:05:20] <ted-ious> This time it definitely wasn't me who killed systemd.
[00:05:44] <ted-ious> chromas will blame me anyway but I have an alabi. :)
[00:08:48] <chromas> I dunno what killed it but I noticed the 3d printer was stuck, but as soon as I rebooted the lap and opened OctoPrint, suddenly everything was fine

[00:16:54] <ted-ious> Do you have power hiccups at home often?
[00:20:59] <chromas> No but also it's on a UPS
[00:21:12] <chromas> Maybe the bot got power hungry and locked something up
[00:21:29] <chromas> although I didn't go anywhere and I'm running my IRC connection from the same box

[02:19:25] <ted-ious> We should just have a rolling article at the top of the page that lists the newest bad news for all this crypto stuff.
[02:19:44] <ted-ious> I don't think it's going to stop anytime soon.
[02:24:09] <AzumaHazuki> crypto was a racket from the start. as the old saying goes, "beware of geeks bearing grift"

[08:53:33] <FatPhil> Very important question - how big's a corn dog?
[08:54:32] <FatPhil> The images make them look about 3cm diameter and 12cm long
[08:57:02] <chromas> Been awhile since I've seen one, but probably a couple cm larger on each axis I think
[08:57:38] <chromas> Probably varies a bit too, like pretzels, pizzas and burritos

[12:15:31] <fab23> somewhere else (heise.de) regarding some more ugly things going on at T., one comment mention that Elmo also schould buy FB :)
[12:16:41] <fab23> because this ugly long URLs are not nice, had to manually add it together, as it does not work if you only take it up until .jpg
[12:17:12] <FatPhil> https://twitter.com
[12:17:41] <fab23> regarding the additional S, this is always for Security, this started a few years ago when all the IoT stuff was more present
[12:22:00] <inz> Ah, yeah, misss://issippi
[12:22:51] <inz> FatPhil, damned if you do, damned if you don't; probably damned if you try to do neither too
[12:23:56] <FatPhil> you're probably damned if you tell people that you're damned if you do and damned if you don't.
[12:27:45] <inz> damn
[12:35:51] <FatPhil> "Twitter boss Elon Musk told employees at a recent all-hands meeting that the company is losing so much money that "bankruptcy is not out of the question,""
[12:41:30] <inz> It would be a real shame. I'd prefer the twats stayed on twit.
[12:42:20] <inz> Just like why I prefer Turku to exist; otherwise the turkuans would dwell among people.
[12:42:33] <fab23> he also orders all employees to work at least 40hours/week in the office, but they seem to have contracts which allows them to work remote, and so some moved out into the country
[12:43:03] <inz> A true motivational leader.
[12:43:38] <fab23> what happen to the Hyperloop in Las Vegas? :)
[12:44:30] <inz> Probably the TLB's sacked in the first wave were very unhappy while laughing their way to the bank.
[12:49:37] <fab23> that is probably the source of the German article I read on heise.de https://www.theverge.com
[12:49:39] <systemd> ^ 03Elon Musk is putting Twitter at risk of billions in fines, warns company lawyer
[12:52:59] <fab23> nice long timeline (its only 2 weeks): https://www.theverge.com
[12:53:00] <systemd> ^ 03Elon Musk learns the hard way that being a Twitter troll is way more fun than being a mod
[12:53:57] <FatPhil> "move fast and break things", is that what all the cool university dropouts are saying?
[12:54:49] <FatPhil> "Wall Street banks that lent Musk $13 billion to fund Musk's buyout have been quietly approaching hedge funds to see if they would be interested in chunks of buyout debt at deeply discounted prices as low as 60 cents on the dollar
[12:55:16] <fab23> probably, but that may be fine for a startup which got play money, but not a organisations running since a few years

[14:48:32] <FatPhil> Wow - 130+ companies were involved in the Scam Bankman-Fraud empire (and subsequent bankruptcy). Oh, what a tangled web we weave...
[14:50:01] <AzumaHazuki> speaking of, twitter's apparently in hot water with the FTC given it hasn't legally certified all these new features, LOL
[14:50:21] <AzumaHazuki> Musk may actually speedrun destroying the company and i can only cheer him on
[14:51:18] <FatPhil> Then the users will leak out into the outside world :/
[14:51:40] <FatPhil> The sewer is a literal sewer, but it ain't better when it's bombed
[14:55:43] <janrinok> AzumaHazuki, Musk is doing some very stupid moves recently. Do you think he is intentionally trying to kill the company and, if so, to what end? Perhaps if he is shut down by some authority he will use that as an excuse rather than admit that he has just made a colossal mistake?
[14:56:29] <AzumaHazuki> i don't think he is intentionally trying to kill it. i think he's an incompetent narcissistic asshole with an attention span approximately half that of a concussed goldfish
[14:56:53] <AzumaHazuki> he never really wanted to buy this thing, but now he's stuck with it, and he's too fuckin' dumb to run it and too high on his own jenkem to listen to people who do
[14:57:04] <janrinok> now, don't hold back, what do you really think of him :)
[14:57:24] <AzumaHazuki> i think the new circle of Hell he's going to still hasn't been fully excavated yet
[14:57:28] <janrinok> lol
[14:57:38] <FatPhil> And don't pick on goldfish, goldfish are dumb, but cute
[14:57:44] <AzumaHazuki> fair, fair =p

[17:31:00] <Bytram> this is the 3rd time my system has rebooted *today*. :/ I applied applied updates (now at 22.04.1 LTS; running Mate). "Firefox is already running, but is not responding. To use Firefox, you must firs close the existing Firefox process, restart your device, or use a different profile." System monitor shows 4 procs varying from 30% to 100% active!?!!

[17:59:58] <FatPhil> what the fuck goes through retard brains such that they come into the best beer bar in town, with well over 500 beers, and they ask for a gin & tonic, and a rose wine with blah blah blah, blah blah blah, blah blah blah
[18:00:45] <Runaway1956> People who are afraid of new experiences?
[18:01:26] <FatPhil> yeah, but there are literally 20 gin bars in town, and 20 wine bars
[18:01:26] <Runaway1956> I was willing to experiment when I was young. I once kissed an English woman!
[18:01:35] <FatPhil> it wan't me
[18:01:53] <Runaway1956> She had a hairy upper lip, unlike you.
[18:08:28] <Runaway1956> Bytram> this is the 3rd time my system has rebooted *today*. :/ I applied applied update
[18:08:44] <Runaway1956> You should only apply the updates once, I think.
[18:09:42] <Runaway1956> I know nothing about the rebooting, but I can tell you that I have problems with Firefox from time to time
[18:15:21] <janrinok> Firefox is now installed as a snap package and it has caused me several problems. I eventually uninstalled the snap package, then uninstalled snap itself, and finally downloaded a normal version of Firefox and installed that. Problems solved!
[18:17:17] <Runaway1956> That makes sense to me, I don't like snaps either
