[01:04:17] <SpallsHurgenson> obviously I got here just in time; I'm glad I didn't miss any of this fascinating discussion!
[01:06:28] * crutchy_ farts
[01:08:14] <SpallsHurgenson> that's quite interesting and pertinent suggestion, crutchy_. Let me retort with a belch
[01:08:38] <crutchy_> your ideas intrigue me and i wish to subscribe to your newsletter
[01:10:26] <SpallsHurgenson> alas, Burping and Belching Weekly is no longer being published, having been bought out by its competition, Farting Fortnightly, and promptly shut down
[01:11:03] <SpallsHurgenson> but if you need to look at something disgusting on the Internet, let me just leave THIS here for you http://www.ew.com

[01:12:26] <crutchy_> hopefully it doesn't introduce Farting Fortnightly Beta, else they might end up at the foul end of some long-winded releases by its subscribers
[01:14:55] <SpallsHurgenson> in other news, I had to take kitty to the vet. She took it fairly well, suffering all the indignities without much complaint.
[01:15:03] <SpallsHurgenson> what really upset her, though, was when I asked her to do all the driving too http://imgur.com
[01:15:06] <exec> └─ 13Imgur
[01:31:17] <SpallsHurgenson> argh, stupid capricious joystick! sometimes it works, sometimes it don't!
[01:39:54] * SpallsHurgenson blows on the contacts; it works for Nintendo!
[02:28:33] <TheMightyBuzzard> SpallsHurgenson, they make a little blue pill for that
[02:29:05] * TheMightyBuzzard snickers and heads off to bed
[02:29:27] <cmn32480> or you ahve to be very flexible TheMightyBuzzard
[02:29:29] <SpallsHurgenson> I'm confused
[02:30:12] <cmn32480> about what, good sir?
[02:31:40] <SpallsHurgenson> yes
[02:31:48] <cmn32480> oh that?
[02:31:51] <cmn32480> don't worry about it
[02:31:59] * cmn32480 give SpallsHurgenson another beer
[02:32:10] <SpallsHurgenson> and now I'm confused again
[02:32:18] * cmn32480 give SpallsHurgenson another beer
[02:32:58] <SpallsHurgenson> that's not helping!
[02:34:02] * cmn32480 give SpallsHurgenson another beer
[02:34:20] <SpallsHurgenson> Oh! Now I get it!
[02:34:21] <cmn32480> what? not thirsty any more?
[02:34:29] * cmn32480 gives SpallsHurgenson another beer
[02:34:39] <cmn32480> that last one is for figuring it out
[02:34:46] <SpallsHurgenson> damn, lost it again
[02:34:56] <cmn32480> you soudl think about it over a beer
[02:34:59] * cmn32480 gives SpallsHurgenson another beer
[02:35:16] * SpallsHurgenson denies this is all just a scam to get free beer
[02:35:33] * cmn32480 gives SpallsHurgenson another beer
[02:35:53] * SpallsHurgenson is definitely not reselling this beer at an obscene markup to minors
[02:36:13] <cmn32480> I've heard that IRC beer is pretty good
[02:36:24] * cmn32480 looks forlornly at his empty glass
[02:37:22] * SpallsHurgenson shows cmn32480 and offers a refill... for an obscene price
[02:37:40] <cmn32480> I'm not a minor
[02:38:04] <SpallsHurgenson> I'm an equal-opportunity capitalist :)
[02:38:12] * cmn32480 shows SpallsHurgenson his IRC-Cop-Look-Alike Badge very quickly.
[02:38:19] <SpallsHurgenson> (unless I make more money not being one :)
[02:41:53] * cmn32480 gives SpallsHurgenson another beer
[02:41:55] <SpallsHurgenson> today was another day I had hoped I might go to the beach... but didn't get the opportunity.
[02:42:57] <cmn32480> I assume that measn you live near the coast?
[02:43:20] <SpallsHurgenson> no, why would you assume that?
[02:43:21] <cmn32480> if not, that makes it rather hard to get to the beach
[02:43:47] <cmn32480> some lakes have very nice beaches
[02:43:55] <cmn32480> and occassionally rivers
[02:44:08] <SpallsHurgenson> nope, none of those 'round here
[02:45:31] <cmn32480> well... that woudl make it rather difficult to go to the beach
[02:45:37] <cmn32480> I understand why you din't quite make it
[02:45:42] <SpallsHurgenson> isn't that what I said from the start?
[02:46:42] <cmn32480> yes. I shoudl ahve paid better attention
[02:46:49] <cmn32480> I was busy handing out beer
[02:46:52] * juggs grunts
[02:47:07] * cmn32480 gives juggs a beer

[02:47:49] <SpallsHurgenson2> so that's what happens when you unplug the router!
[02:47:49] * cmn32480 gives juggs another beer
[02:47:54] * cmn32480 gives juggs another beer and a smoke
[02:48:10] <juggs> Seriously... who put water on Spalls after midnight? Thing will spawn a million Spalls now
[02:48:24] <cmn32480> eeeeeeekkkkkkkK!
[02:49:23] <juggs> Why are you plying me with beers cmn32480 ?
[02:49:36] * cmn32480 gives juggs another beer
[02:49:36] <SpallsHurgenson2> he wants you drunk and... pliable :)
[02:49:57] <SpallsHurgenson2> just let your inhibitions down and let nature take its course.

[02:50:50] <SpallsHurgenson2> oh thank god he's gone. I hate that guy :)
[02:50:55] SpallsHurgenson2 is now known as SpallsHurgenson
[02:51:15] <juggs> Wait.. where am I? I thought this was SN.... it's got all deliverance all of a sudden.
[02:51:29] <SpallsHurgenson> SQUEEEEEAAAALL like a pig!
[02:51:47] <SpallsHurgenson> now there's a movie I haven't seen in a long long time
[02:53:32] <juggs> Likewise. Kinda cliche now... banjos - I don't know was it that dark a film, I don't recall.
[02:54:12] <SpallsHurgenson> not that dark... except for the aforementioned scene
[02:55:52] <juggs> I don't recall the plot at all. Good thing about being a goldfish memory wise is you get to revisit films and view them as though you never saw them before just a short while later.
[02:56:17] <juggs> About the only plus point to be honest...
[02:56:20] <SpallsHurgenson> although that movie probably set back the North-South relations even more than did George Wallace :)
[02:56:49] <SpallsHurgenson> that and them thar Duke boys!
[02:58:51] <Bender> [SoylentNews] - US Has Bunker Busters Ready for Iran - http://sylnt.us - ka-boom
[03:01:13] <juggs> Weren't the Duke boys replaced more recently with Trailer Park Boys and My Name Is Earl? Or were those not a North - South thing?
[03:01:48] <SpallsHurgenson> I dunno, I haven't watched TV since the Duke boys were the hot new property :)
[03:03:47] <cmn32480> man the sub queue is looking rough
[03:03:50] <SpallsHurgenson> !trigger TheOnion_article_about_guy_who_wont_shut_up_about_how_he_gave_up_TV
[03:04:05] <cmn32480> sorry... my wife came in and told me i need to get real friends and quit handing out free beer
[03:04:18] <SpallsHurgenson> I'm real!
[03:04:30] <cmn32480> you are certainly real enough spalls
[03:04:37] <SpallsHurgenson> (I'm pretty sure it's all of you who are figments :)
[03:05:00] * cmn32480 goes POOF!
[03:05:16] <SpallsHurgenson> well, your wife is gonna be disappointed tonight :)
[03:05:35] <cmn32480> she's gets dissappointed every night
[03:08:18] <juggs> She's got you right where she wants you :P
[03:08:41] <cmn32480> golly I hope so
[03:08:49] <cmn32480> but it sounds a bit kinky
[03:10:19] <cmn32480> ok kids... time for me to hit the sack... lotta stuff to do tomorrow.
[03:10:30] <cmn32480> night all.
[03:10:40] cmn32480 is now known as cmn32480|afk
[03:12:13] <juggs> G'damn, we'll be having no kink around these parts. Missionary once a month should be enough for anyone other than communists and hippies. Sex is for procreation not enjoying for it's own sake after all :-/
[03:13:03] <SpallsHurgenson> once a month? you pervert!
[03:13:52] <SpallsHurgenson> (goddamnit, LibreOffice seems to update almost as often as Firefox these days...)
[03:13:58] <juggs> Typo - I meant once a year

[03:24:27] SpallsHurgenson2 is now known as SpallsHurgenson
[03:24:28] <juggs> depends what you mean by "the network" I guess.
[03:24:58] <SpallsHurgenson> you know, the network. THE network. The working net.
[03:25:08] <juggs> OK
[03:27:09] <JamesNZ> Some kind of automatic fishing net?
[03:28:46] <SpallsHurgenson> why you looking at me? I dunno how these things work. I just push the button, the thing goes beep and I know its done :)
[03:29:50] <juggs> Do that or use a portable drive or USB stick thing - personally I found Unison useful https://www.cis.upenn.edu - if you like reading the manual is massive, so many options it makes the head spin.
[03:29:53] <exec> └─ 13Unison File Synchronizer
[03:30:23] <SpallsHurgenson> does it have a push-button/go-beep mode?
[03:30:51] <juggs> It does, once you learn how it works.
[03:31:13] <SpallsHurgenson> learn? learn? I'm a busy person! I don't have time to learn!
[03:32:21] <juggs> If you ain't learning, you're doomed to obsolescence already.
[03:32:25] <SpallsHurgenson> Unison looks neat, but I gotta admit, I had some bad experienes with sync-tools in the past
[03:32:38] <SpallsHurgenson> I was young, we were experimenting... things didn't work out that well :)
[03:33:05] <SpallsHurgenson> so nowadays I only sync in one direction, like god intended :)
[03:35:36] <juggs> As with any sync stuff - gotta be careful on that first contact that you don't write blank nothingness over all your files by getting it the wrong way around. Anyhoo, it's worked for me, YMMV etc. usual caveats apply.

[03:36:24] <Ethanol-fueled> BOMB IRAN.
[03:36:36] <juggs> why?
[03:36:48] <SpallsHurgenson> no sir, don't like it. I think I'll just go back to manually copying files.
[03:36:52] <Ethanol-fueled> Hmm...good question.
[03:37:07] <SpallsHurgenson> or maybe re-writing them on the other machines bit-by-bit by hand :)
[03:37:18] <juggs> SpallsHurgenson, do them one by one just to be sure and verify 5 times.
[03:38:08] <SpallsHurgenson> oh, at LEAST five times! I mean, we can't put any of my ever-so-valuable data at risk :)
[03:38:48] <juggs> It's your life... spend that short time as you see fit. Verify away!

[03:43:46] <Ethanol-fueled> This is silly.
[03:44:30] <Ethanol-fueled> It's time to listen to GG ALLIN's "Gypsy Motherfucker" to get happy again.
[03:44:48] <Ethanol-fueled> I wont post the link, because that may result in a ban.
[03:45:40] <Ethanol-fueled> Hahaha, at youtube commercials implicitly endorsing "gypsy motherfucker"
[03:53:38] <juggs> Ethanol-fueled, your point?
[03:54:59] <Ethanol-fueled> juggs, nothing.
[03:55:00] <crutchy_> time to bomb iran cos the other pointless unwinnable bankrupting wars are getting boring
[03:55:22] <Ethanol-fueled> I think I had leave soon.
[03:56:35] <Ethanol-fueled> I am looking for the point when GG Allin has evacuated his bowels onto the stage floor.
[03:57:15] <Ethanol-fueled> Fuck this place, I want to go beat up the stage floor.
[03:57:25] <Ethanol-fueled> Good night, gendltmen.
[03:57:34] <juggs> crutchy_, nothing bankrupting about pouring billions of taxpayer dollars into the war machine..... just print it and send it over there. The next generation or two can work out how to make the books balance.
[03:57:41] -!- Ethanol-fueled has quit [Quit: Leaving]
[03:57:49] <crutchy_> juggs, true
[03:58:13] <crutchy_> nothing like good ol' fashioned inflation to pay off debts
[03:59:23] * crutchy_ is playing civ2 at king level and i'm up to AD 260 and i haven't been smashed by the AI players yet o.O
[04:00:42] <juggs> Sickens me. But it is what it is. Inflating it away as a strategy is clearly a problem when all central banks are running at 0% - not much room for wiggling there. Something has to give.
[04:01:46] * SpallsHurgenson denies the existence of any game called "Civilization"
[04:02:29] <juggs> Economic theories come crashing down without continual growth. All that is left is a mess.
[04:03:46] * juggs evaporates in a cloud of anger
[04:05:26] <crutchy_> fuck. i think i spoke too soon
[04:05:37] <crutchy_> i'm about to be wiped out :L
[04:06:33] <SpallsHurgenson> la la la la la la! I can't hear you! There is no Civ. If there was, I'd probably be playing it until 5AM
[04:06:42] <SpallsHurgenson> but there isn't, so I get to have a good night's sleep!
[04:06:46] <crutchy_> fucking indians
[04:09:14] <SpallsHurgenson> well, that's why there are so many of them :)
[04:11:07] <crutchy_> i'm playing persia, and all my cities around the persian peninsula are taken. i only have one city that i got from a goody box when exploring around south africa
[04:12:32] <crutchy_> haha one of the indian cities got taken by barbarians :D
[04:12:39] <crutchy_> take that fuckers!

[04:14:34] <crutchy_> i guess now i'm pretty much playing as zulus except with a few turns lost
[04:14:58] <crutchy_> and no chance of securing any of the ancient wonders :(
