[00:17:09] <halibut> <c0lo> breaking <URL>
[00:17:38] <halibut> ^^^ I get that the ``breaking'' means breaking news ... but reading that article, it does feel like something is actually breaking, as in becoming broken.

[06:03:21] <halibut> I did mess it up a little. I do not use Google for searching any more, so I ran the same search in a different search engine, read a few of the results ... and then forgot that the original URL was not directly to any of those.
[06:04:25] <halibut> I still assert that calling that breaking news works for both of the interpretations of the word ``breaking'' that I was describing.
[06:20:40] <c0lo> Ah, got it now. Apologies, halibut.
[06:23:47] <c0lo> But... nothing was broken, life as per (shitty) usual

[07:29:01] <Ingar> no need for a guillotine, I have a machete
[07:38:23] <c0lo> Leave it at home if you plan to travel in Melbourne.
[07:43:57] <Ingar> I need it for my walks through Brussels
[07:49:09] <chromas> oh yay, it's been a little while since the last time I saw a new 10× power multiplier for batteries. Maybe this one will happen
[09:47:34] <c0lo> just don't drive a nail in that wall, chromas, it's a supercapacitor that is supposed to store the entire energy your home needs in a day.
[09:48:23] <chromas> So now my outlets can literally just be holes in the wall?
[09:57:36] <Ingar> in the meanwhile, Ingar got a haircut
[10:21:07] <halibut> How did you decide which hair to cut?
[11:04:02] <Ingar> I paid someone to make those decisions for me
[11:07:52] <c0lo> Was your machete used for the cut?
[11:32:17] <Ingar> No, I used the machete to make sure the person I paid did a good job

[20:41:20] <AlwaysNever> Anyone else here remember when IMDB.COM shut down their "comments section" on movies...? Oh, did we lose something that day!
[21:23:03] <chromas> Yep, and when YouTube took away downvote count and Netflix took away reviews. Every time, in response to someone being butthurt about criticism.
[21:31:07] * chromas gives AlwaysNever podman
[22:43:01] <AlwaysNever> chromas: I liked to see Youtube's downvotes, to readily appreciate the "voltage" of a video, it's all bland and dull nowadays
