[01:42:56] <Bytram> one thing I'm noticing...
[01:43:30] <Bytram> in many cases, it's useful to get the 'id' of the last of 'something', and then use THAT to query the actual item
[01:43:48] <Bytram> if need be, also return a count of how many there are
[01:44:18] <Bytram> I don't remember which on e offhand, but there's one that returns the last 50(?) of something and it's one big chunk of stuff that comes down the pipe
[01:44:44] <Bytram> I'd prefer to get the index of the last one, and then iteratively request each one going back.

[01:47:21] <Bytram> how can I know what value to use for 'since'?
[01:47:57] <TheMightyBuzzard> well, if you're building something that regularly pulls them, you use the highest value of what you got last time you pulled comments
[01:48:33] <Bytram> so, ima thinking have 'latest' return the sid of the latest comment... hrmm

[02:16:26] <Bender> [SoylentNews] - Patent Awarded for Space Elevator - http://sylnt.us - believe-when-we-see-it
[02:17:09] <SpallsHurgenson> now that's a waste of money... do they really think they are going to build a space elvator in the next 14 years?
[02:17:25] <takyon> http://www.bbc.com
[02:17:27] <systemd> ^ 03China's Tencent takes $50m stake in messaging app Kik - BBC News
[02:17:54] <takyon> if the engineers say an inflatable space elevator can work, who are we to judge
[02:19:32] <AndyTheAbsurd> I looked at that earlier today - it's only 20 km, so only 1/5 of the way to space.
[02:20:26] <SpallsHurgenson> I don't think that will really work.... you need a counterweight in geosync orbit, don't you?
[02:21:14] <Bytram> I've often wondered if an inclined, powered rail (say up the side of a mountain) could be used to give a rocket an initial 'push' -- think a rail gun on steroids
[02:21:52] <takyon> 1/5 up could mean a lot of fuel saved... less than 80% needed right?
[02:22:26] <Bytram> much MUCH less, as you would no longer need the fuel that was needed to get the fuel+rocket up to THAT elevation
[02:22:30] <takyon> LEO is 160km though
[02:22:30] <SpallsHurgenson> not really. It's not really the "up" that's so hard, it's the getting to orbital speeds
[02:22:51] <takyon> well if you can somehow bring a light spacecraft up to the top, you can launch it off the bouncy castle
[02:23:12] <Bytram> there is that, but there's still the not inconsequential m*g*h to overcome, too.
[02:23:48] <takyon> might be a good fit for that tiny "electric" rocket we covered
[02:24:11] <SpallsHurgenson> yeah, but without the huge counterweight, and the "top story" still being in the atmosphere (so lots of fuel to counteract the drag) I think the overall savings will be less than nil
[02:25:27] <Bytram> increased elevation implies much less atmospheric drag; IIRC, it's a better-than-linear improvement
[02:27:41] <SpallsHurgenson> yes, but the platform presumably is going to be there long-term so while drag is reduced (compared to what it might be lower) its still there and it will add up over days and weeks and months (and I can't imagine the thing would be particularly streamlined either). I don't see this being very effective
[02:28:38] <SpallsHurgenson> you'd probably just be better off lifting the whole thing with balloons first
[02:28:45] <SpallsHurgenson> s/thing/rocket/
[02:29:59] <Bytram> SpallsHurgenson: how is the platform being there indefinitely a problem? Imagine it's just a 20km tall, man-made mountain.
[02:31:17] <SpallsHurgenson> and how are they keeping that mountain up there? a real space elevator solves this with an asteroid-sized mass in high orbit as a counterweight
[02:31:56] <cmn32480> smoke and mirrors SpallsHurgenson
[02:32:04] <cmn32480> it is all smoke and mirrors
[02:32:20] <takyon> you make it really stiff
[02:32:41] <takyon> but really light and strong
[02:32:49] <takyon> using magic graphene and CNTs
[02:32:52] <Bytram> SpallsHurgenson: a real space elevator would be ideal, but atm we need unobtainium for the 'ribbon' which reaches from the asteroid down to the earth's surface.
[02:33:00] <SpallsHurgenson> yeah, but why patent something NOBODY has a chance of building before the patent expires?
[02:33:24] <takyon> they'll file a new patent in 14 years on a space elevator that actually works
[02:33:24] <Bytram> on the moon, otoh, a space elevator would be eminently feasible using today's existing materials
[02:34:14] <SpallsHurgenson> a patent won't keep others from DEVELOPING the idea; it only stops people from using it. Its a waste of money to even file on the idea (much less effort since there is so much obvious prior art)
[02:34:43] <SpallsHurgenson> this is like patenting a warp drive
[02:40:21] <SpallsHurgenson> (side note: whenever I think of the "Alcubierre drive", I always think of it as the "Abercrombie (and Finch) Drive")
[02:42:43] <SpallsHurgenson> (but that's probably just me)
[02:46:50] <Bender> [SoylentNews] - Google Unveils Project Sunroof - http://sylnt.us - does-it-account-for-the-weather
[02:51:33] <Bytram> SpallsHurgenson: I just think of the phenomenal amount of energy that appears as a 'front wash' as the drive comes out of 'warp' -- basically nukes the target planet into slad
[02:51:36] <Bytram> s/slad/slag/
[02:55:04] <SpallsHurgenson> sort of like the arrival of an Abercrombie and Finch store!

[03:54:51] <takyon> I heard about OnHub

[03:55:30] <SirFinkus> I'd love a good wifi router, but wouldn't buy one from google
[03:55:34] <SirFinkus> that's insanity
[03:55:54] <takyon> oh I guess it doesn't literally speak to you, despite "speaks your language" littering the marketing
[03:56:13] <takyon> for $200 you can get an amazing router
[03:56:37] <SirFinkus> I have a $200 router, it isn't amazing
[03:57:56] <SpallsHurgenson> I want somebody to make cheap thumb-drive sized wireless routers that silently sniff out and connect to open wifi points, then act as servers and dead-drops for data. Make 'em cheap and disposable so they can be distributed by the millions :)
[04:04:27] <SpallsHurgenson> I guess OnHub might be useful for people who don't know what they are doing... still, giving google access to my router is creepy
[04:04:36] <takyon> sounds like a Kickstarter (the thumb drives)
[04:04:54] <takyon> the routing/mesh kickstarters have been a bit dodgy IMO

[10:24:47] <SirFinkus> had a pretty good thunderstorm a few days ago, always exciting for us
[10:25:20] <SirFinkus> we get maybe, 1-2 a year
[10:25:27] <TheMightyBuzzard> means i'm working on code instead of fishing today
[10:25:45] <TheMightyBuzzard> ya, we get about one a week. sometimes as many as four.
[10:26:16] <SirFinkus> thunderstorms are pretty badass, I wish we got more of them
[10:26:31] <SirFinkus> i'd probably feel differently if they happened that often though
[10:26:54] <TheMightyBuzzard> nah, they make the grass grow and scare away hippies cause they're too much like showers.
[10:27:11] <TheMightyBuzzard> that's why hippies mostly live out in cali
[10:27:13] <SirFinkus> they scare the shit out of my dog
[10:27:41] <SirFinkus> our weather is borning
[10:27:43] <SirFinkus> boring even
[10:28:30] <SirFinkus> either partly cloudy, 24-34℃, or １５℃, overcast, maybe a drizzle
[10:28:58] <TheMightyBuzzard> ugh
[10:29:21] <SirFinkus> well, cooler than that in the winter
[10:29:24] <SirFinkus> but pretty boring
[10:29:32] <SirFinkus> maybe snow 1-2 times a year
[10:31:49] <TheMightyBuzzard> snow can die in a fire for all i care but i like having some actual weather
[10:32:00] <SirFinkus> storms are neat
[10:32:15] <SirFinkus> I suppose we get wind storms occasionally
[10:32:19] <SirFinkus> oh, earthquakes
[10:32:28] <SirFinkus> we get those every few years
[10:32:54] <SirFinkus> I hope mt rainier erupts soon, that's worth like a decade of thunderstorms
[10:33:05] <TheMightyBuzzard> nod nod. earthquakes happen because the planet is allergic to hippies and is trying to scratch them off.
[10:33:40] <SirFinkus> the only one I really remember was that one in like, 2001 or something? that was a pretty good one

[10:39:29] <SirFinkus> SSRIs, benzos, and amphetamines, what could possibly go wrong?
[10:39:31] <TheMightyBuzzard> adderall's basically just amphetamines
[10:39:55] <SirFinkus> well, it is
[10:40:16] <SirFinkus> it's basically meth, but less neurotoxic and eurphoric
[10:40:27] <TheMightyBuzzard> runs ya about $90 every two months if you only take it in the morning
[10:40:59] <SirFinkus> i'd probably use it pretty sparingly if I had any
[10:41:02] <TheMightyBuzzard> thas paying cash. no dealing with insurance or what have ya.
[10:41:35] <SirFinkus> I just wouldn't want to rely on it because I'm planning on studying abroad soon, and idk what the laws are
[10:41:51] <TheMightyBuzzard> yeah, that's actually a bad idea. gets you high if you don't build up a tolerance.
[10:41:57] <TheMightyBuzzard> ahh, yeah
[10:41:59] <SirFinkus> they're a lot stingier with the amphetamines in europe
[10:42:39] <TheMightyBuzzard> pretty stingy with em here too. gotta get a new scrip every month and pick em up in person with yer driver's license.
[10:42:46] <SirFinkus> I'd do more research if I was actually prescribed them
[10:43:10] <SirFinkus> I didn't have those issues when I had them, but it was a while ago
[10:43:18] <SirFinkus> I had to go in every year or something
[10:43:33] <TheMightyBuzzard> federal law now
[10:43:42] <SirFinkus> lame
[10:44:38] <TheMightyBuzzard> course what my shrink did was prescribe em for morning and afternoon but i rarely need to be highly functioning in the afternoon so they last me two months between refills.
[10:44:42] <SirFinkus> well, my parents were handling it back then, so I don't really know
[10:45:45] <SirFinkus> I'm pretty bitter about how that whole thing was handled
[10:46:00] <SirFinkus> they just kept throwing increasingly powerful drugs at me
[10:46:30] <TheMightyBuzzard> ya, well, shrinking is a science in its infancy still. gotta expect em to not know what the hell they're doing.
[10:46:38] <SirFinkus> the SSRIs are particularly insidious I think
[10:46:46] <TheMightyBuzzard> ya, they blow goats.
[10:46:54] <SirFinkus> benzos and amphetamines are fairly well understood
[10:47:17] <SirFinkus> comparatively I mean
[10:47:37] <TheMightyBuzzard> tried ssris back when i was younger. all they did was make me sociopathic.
[10:48:15] <SirFinkus> I was taking them for a while, I was like 13, what did I know? the doctor told me I need to take them and I took them
[10:48:50] <SirFinkus> eventually I stopped because of the side effects, but I didn't taper so I had withdrawal shit for months
[10:49:02] <TheMightyBuzzard> gah.
[10:49:36] <TheMightyBuzzard> i never took em long enough to get withdrawl. that or my system just shrugged withdrawl off.
[10:50:11] <SirFinkus> the thing I remember is the "brain zaps"
[10:50:30] <TheMightyBuzzard> oh hell, i get those normally.
[10:50:38] <SirFinkus> pretty self explanatory, it feels like an electric shock going through your body
[10:51:06] <SirFinkus> I think everyone gets them occasionaly
[10:51:16] <TheMightyBuzzard> basically what they did to me was eliminate all those pesky emotions.
[10:51:31] <TheMightyBuzzard> which left me with logic alone and my logic is some pretty bleak shit.
[10:51:40] <SirFinkus> ha
[10:52:22] <SirFinkus> all I really remember is getting an impending sense of doom
[10:52:31] <SirFinkus> periodically
[10:52:38] <TheMightyBuzzard> amphetamines though, they make me feel gooood and keep my brain too busy to get all up its own ass.
[10:52:51] <SirFinkus> yeah, they're pretty neat
[10:52:59] <Bender> [SoylentNews] - Chemists Suffer from Chemophobia-Phobia - http://sylnt.us - cartoon-chemistry-always-goes-boom
[10:53:25] <SirFinkus> benzos work too, pity about the memory loss, addiction potential, and tolerance
[10:53:51] <SirFinkus> they're magic if you have anxiety shit
[10:54:33] <SirFinkus> I can see how one could become dependent on them really easily
[10:55:14] <TheMightyBuzzard> ahh, i don't get that. i get either despair or violent tendencies depending on my mood.
[10:55:48] <SirFinkus> I have a severe needle phobia, so I get them any time I need to have an injection or something
[10:55:59] <SirFinkus> they're pretty boring as far as recreational potential
[10:56:02] <TheMightyBuzzard> so, no tattoos for you then.
[10:56:23] <SirFinkus> just imagine standing somewhere high, or whatever you'd be afraid of
[10:56:35] <SirFinkus> taking a pill, and then 15 minutes later being ok with whatever is going on
[10:56:47] <TheMightyBuzzard> funky
[10:56:51] <SirFinkus> it isn't really noticeable unless you're anxious
[10:57:02] <SirFinkus> all anxiety just melts away
[10:57:35] <TheMightyBuzzard> ya, i don't get anxious, i get angry.
[10:57:56] <SirFinkus> nasty things though, if you become dependent, withdrawals are worse than heroin
[10:58:03] <TheMightyBuzzard> always seemed more productive to me
[10:58:12] <TheMightyBuzzard> yick
[10:58:17] <SirFinkus> usually is probably
[10:58:24] <SirFinkus> yeah, you get seizures and stuff
[10:58:30] <TheMightyBuzzard> oh fun
[11:00:21] <TheMightyBuzzard> apparently i'm not having addiction issues with amphetamines though. i don't bother taking them when i'm sick-cause who needs to be productive if you're laying around in bed-and haven't felt any additional symptoms
[11:00:34] <SirFinkus> yeah, if you ever get prescribed them as a "regular" thing, run away from whoever prescribed them
[11:00:40] <TheMightyBuzzard> nod nod
[11:01:36] <SirFinkus> I think a lot of it has to with with your state of mind, if you're taking something like that to get "fucked up" you're probably at a higher risk for addiction
[11:02:20] <TheMightyBuzzard> truth. i'd prolly have to take more doses per day to get proper addicted.
[11:03:05] <TheMightyBuzzard> s'not to say my body isn't used to having it to wake up with in the morning. i'd have issues getting out of bed for a week if i went cold turkey.
[11:03:50] <SirFinkus> yeah, maybe a little addicted, but not "life destroying" addicted, just a physical thing
[11:04:26] <SirFinkus> really doesn't matter if it isn't fucking your life up
[11:05:00] <SirFinkus> people are addicted to things like caffiene, if i don't have any for a day I get a headache and feel really tired
[11:05:01] <TheMightyBuzzard> eh, not so much addicted as conditioned. i could live without the adderall but take my coffee away and someone's getting stabbed.
[11:05:13] <SirFinkus> more of a physical thing
[11:06:00] <SirFinkus> same context as caffiene
[11:06:01] <TheMightyBuzzard> i make no bones about being addicted to coffee and cigarettes. fortunately i still enjoy both of them, so no reason to stop using them regularly.
[11:06:27] <SirFinkus> well, strictly, cigs are bad for you, but you already know that lol
[11:06:41] <SirFinkus> and I drink and eat fatty foods, so I have no room to talk
[11:07:00] <TheMightyBuzzard> EVERYONE knows that, yep. You'd have to live in a cave to not know that.
[11:07:16] <TheMightyBuzzard> oh fatty foods are fine just eat yer green shat too.
[11:07:44] <SirFinkus> fatty is the wrong word, just shitty foods
[11:07:48] <SirFinkus> chips and stuff
[11:07:54] <TheMightyBuzzard> ahh, yeah.
[11:07:58] <SirFinkus> processed foods
[11:08:33] <TheMightyBuzzard> i love how they was all like butter is ebil, eat margarine! then now they ban margarine and say eat butter.
[11:08:51] -!- JamesNZ has quit [Quit: Leaving]
[11:08:54] <SirFinkus> I think that now the theory is "both are bad"
[11:09:00] <SirFinkus> it flipped a bit
[11:09:15] <TheMightyBuzzard> newp, butter's back on the good list in moderation
[11:09:25] <TheMightyBuzzard> most all non-trans-fats are
[11:09:53] <SirFinkus> my philosophy is that if I can describe the animal/plant to plate process in 3 steps or less, it's probably fine for me
[11:09:54] <TheMightyBuzzard> assuming you do things like watch your cholesterol
[11:10:25] <SirFinkus> the trouble is the flavorings and stuff people add to food that trick your body into thinking it's getting nutrients it isnt
[11:10:36] <TheMightyBuzzard> chop up a cow, put a piece on the grill, eat it.
[11:11:20] <TheMightyBuzzard> ya, i don't really use much in the way of seasonings cept salt n pepper unless i'm doing a roast or something
[11:11:47] <SirFinkus> seasoning I think is fine, as long as it's just ground up something
[11:12:00] <SirFinkus> like, if you're grinding up mustard seeds, that's fine
[11:12:12] <TheMightyBuzzard> little garlic powder here and there if i'm too lazy to mince some.
[11:12:24] <SirFinkus> if you're engineering "nacho cheese" flavor, that's different
[11:12:30] <TheMightyBuzzard> ahh
[11:12:48] <SirFinkus> garlic anything is delicious
[11:13:18] <TheMightyBuzzard> ya my system knows the difference tween flavoring and nutrients though apparently. i eat junk for a day and it revolts and says it wants some fookin chinese food.
[11:14:13] <TheMightyBuzzard> i can pretty much live on pizza though as long as they're supreme
[11:14:50] <SirFinkus> luckily, steaks are easy and quick to cook, I'm surprised more people don't eat them
[11:14:58] <SirFinkus> almost no skill involved in cooking them
[11:14:59] <TheMightyBuzzard> what really sucks is when you don't eat enough vegetables and actually get to craving them while still not liking them.
[11:15:26] <SirFinkus> I love veggies, and the good ones too, so it's not a problem
[11:15:36] <SirFinkus> a lot of it is genetic apparently
[11:15:52] * chromas gives TheMightyBuzzard a plate of steak-shaped pressed bean curds
[11:15:54] <SirFinkus> I have shitty tastebuds, so broccoli is delicious to me
[11:16:10] <TheMightyBuzzard> !? steaks are art. they should barely need a knife to cut, should have a crust on the outside, and the inside should all but melt in your mouth.
[11:16:11] <SirFinkus> tofu isn't shit, but it isn't good either
[11:16:41] <SirFinkus> easy to do if you have a good heat source
[11:16:54] <TheMightyBuzzard> and a good steak but yeah
[11:17:09] <SirFinkus> get a sear on one side, flip it, and cook until it feels done
[11:17:12] <TheMightyBuzzard> apparently it's not easy to do though cause i had to live through boot leather steaks growing up
[11:17:47] <SirFinkus> if you know what a rare/med-rare steak feels like, it's easy to tell when it's done with a finger
[11:17:53] <TheMightyBuzzard> nod nod
[11:17:58] <SirFinkus> oh, season with salt and pepper
[11:18:00] <SirFinkus> forgot that part
[11:18:07] <SirFinkus> not rocket science
[11:18:15] <TheMightyBuzzard> salt needs to go on either 45m prior or <15m before
[11:18:15] <SirFinkus> people are paranoid about undercooking
[11:18:26] <SirFinkus> oh yeah, room temp steaks
[11:18:37] <TheMightyBuzzard> in between those tastes worse than outside the range
[11:19:08] <SirFinkus> I don't think having it at fridge temp will really ruin the steak though, it just won't be as good
[11:19:13] <TheMightyBuzzard> what's really nice is getting a slab of steaks and aging it in the fridge at least a couple weeks
[11:20:05] <SirFinkus> I haven't done that
[11:20:05] <TheMightyBuzzard> two weeks is plenty but i know guys who think it ain't aged enough if it doesn't run the wife out of the house when you cut into the vacuum sealed package.
[11:20:27] <TheMightyBuzzard> ya well you gotta do it on a slab of them. can't do it with individual steaks.
[11:20:54] <SirFinkus> yeah, probably unrealistic for me
[11:21:08] <SirFinkus> although I might know a guy...
[11:21:10] <TheMightyBuzzard> nod nod. not everyone has a hunnerd bucks to drop on steaks all at once.
[11:21:55] <SirFinkus> or a giant fridge
[11:23:01] <TheMightyBuzzard> aging goes like this though: vacuum sealed slab o steak, stick in fridge, leave it alone for 0.5-6 months, open when you want to cook. freeze anything you don't cook.
[11:23:40] <TheMightyBuzzard> not talkin a side of beef though. just like a 10-12lb cut of steaks.
[11:23:54] <SirFinkus> so like, maybe an entire beef tenderloin?
[11:24:00] <SirFinkus> I could get behind that maybe
[11:24:10] <TheMightyBuzzard> ya, essentially.
[11:24:20] <SirFinkus> they have that shit at costco
[11:24:35] <TheMightyBuzzard> just make sure you get the two middle cuts cause they're always the best.
[11:24:47] <TheMightyBuzzard> afk. need more coffee/nicotine
[11:34:36] <TheMightyBuzzard> and all drugged up again
[11:35:20] <SirFinkus> never really understood the appeal of nicotine
[11:35:32] <SirFinkus> although a good cigar is good with scotch
[11:35:38] <SirFinkus> more of a flavor thing for me
[11:37:00] <TheMightyBuzzard> dopamine.
[11:38:00] <TheMightyBuzzard> lot of folks run naturally low on dopamine. makes it easy to get hooked on something that causes your body to produce the stuff.
[11:38:05] <SirFinkus> I guess I just never got that rush from it
[11:38:40] <TheMightyBuzzard> it's not like a rush, more a contentment
[11:39:13] <SirFinkus> that makes sense, but I really only get that in the scotch context
[11:39:28] <SirFinkus> I've tried cigs and it was super subtle if anything
[11:39:35] <TheMightyBuzzard> plus smoke breaks split the day into nicely manageable chunks.
[11:41:05] <TheMightyBuzzard> ya, you prolly got a perfectly good level of dopamine to begin with or you'd still be smoking.
[11:41:21] <SirFinkus> well, I doubt that
[11:41:34] <SirFinkus> I don't think I've really tried it enough to get addicted
[11:42:03] <SirFinkus> not that I'm trying
[11:42:33] <AndyTheAbsurd> I got *really* close to being a smoker after smoking only two times
[11:42:45] <AndyTheAbsurd> now I avoid tobacco products like they spread plague
[11:43:02] <SirFinkus> I've smoked 1 cigarette, and probably about half a dozen cigars?
[11:43:18] <SirFinkus> hard to tell with that because cigars I always share
[11:43:34] <TheMightyBuzzard> AndyTheAbsurd, prolly a wise choice.
[11:43:39] <SirFinkus> that's more of a "special event" thing
[11:44:07] <TheMightyBuzzard> mind you, i don't smoke cause i'm addicted. i smoke cause i enjoy it.
[11:44:58] <TheMightyBuzzard> if it were just the addiction, i'd prolly quit pretty quickly.
[11:48:25] <SirFinkus> yeah, the act of smoking itself is pretty pleasurable
[11:48:35] <SirFinkus> it's almost primal
[11:49:03] <AndyTheAbsurd> It was *that* addictive...two cigarettes across two different days, the next day one part of my brain "Wow, a cigarette would be nice right now" and then the rational part of my decided to go over and kick the shit out of the nicotine-addicted part of my brain.
[11:49:15] <AndyTheAbsurd> (Sorry, got pulled away by the boss.)
[11:49:26] <SirFinkus> huh
[11:50:06] <TheMightyBuzzard> took me years to get addicted. i never could keep myself reliably in smokes as a kid.

[19:40:43] <Ethanol-fueled> Reading some of the Ashley Madison leaks now.
[19:41:22] <AndyTheAbsurd> anything juicy?
[19:41:34] <AndyTheAbsurd> is Ted Cruz's information in there?
[19:41:45] <Ethanol-fueled> I don't know yet. I'm reading what others have found.
[19:42:01] <Ethanol-fueled> I considered downloading it and rolling my own solution but it's 80 gigs.
[19:42:14] <AndyTheAbsurd> that's a lotta gigs

[19:42:35] <Ethanol-fueled> Nobody I give a damn about. I had an account with them, so the dummy e-mail addy I use for SN would likely show up in the dump.
[19:42:42] <AndyTheAbsurd> fire up the download/torrent/whatever right before you go to bed.
[19:43:38] <Ethanol-fueled> I might, good think I've been playing with MySQl Lately.
[19:43:44] <Ethanol-fueled> I didn'
[19:44:12] <Ethanol-fueled> I didn't do anything with my AM account, I was single when I started it and used a vague introduction with no pictures.
[19:44:36] <Ethanol-fueled> You need to pay to do anything useful with AM so I figured it wasn't worth it.
[19:45:20] <Ethanol-fueled> Just don't want to duplicate the effort. Others are already writing tools and scripts(grep, awk, etc.) to go through the data
[19:46:11] <AzumaHazuki> i almost wonder if i should look through it on the off chance someone i know is there and can be...contacted
[19:46:28] <Ethanol-fueled> The damning thing is that credit card transactions are there, so one can't just say it was somebody else pretending to be them.
[19:46:28] <AzumaHazuki> like that creepy-ass security guard from Kenosha who kept stalking me
[19:46:30] <Subsentient> Ethanol-fueled: hi
[19:46:47] <Ethanol-fueled> All their kinks, credit card numbers and transactions, everything, are there.
[19:46:51] <Ethanol-fueled> Hi subsentient.
[19:47:22] <Ethanol-fueled> AM had a feature where you could pay to delete all of your information, but they still retained your information (including address) for their records.
[19:47:27] <AzumaHazuki> oh-ho, so it lists kinks, eh? this could be a field day for blackmailers
[19:48:17] <Subsentient> Ethanol-fueled: Just cleaned out the 10 kilotons of gunk inside my PC case and repaired the audio out jack with my trusty, crusty, heavily used $20 Weller soldering iron.
[19:48:20] <Ethanol-fueled> Yes, AzumaHazuki, one funny one was a married guy who signed up right after valentine's day looking for "cuddling" and this
[19:48:30] <AzumaHazuki> lol
[19:48:30] <ciri> :D
[19:48:32] <Ethanol-fueled> Weller++

[19:48:42] <Ethanol-fueled> Subsentient, awesome.
[19:49:01] <Subsentient> Oh my god, it had cheetos and tobacco and dead beetles and a blue chunk of deodorant in there

[19:49:05] <AzumaHazuki> i have heard V-Day is when a lot of cheating happens for some reason
[19:49:05] <Subsentient> how does that even get in there?
[19:49:16] <AndyTheAbsurd> best soldering irons that I've used
[19:49:20] <AzumaHazuki> Subsentient: Windows has always been a bit buggy :v
[19:49:33] <Subsentient> AzumaHazuki: I'm a linux guy.
[19:49:38] <AndyTheAbsurd> Subsentient: I blame cats when it happens to my machines.
[19:49:52] <AndyTheAbsurd> not /usr/bin/cat, but Felis domesticus.
[19:50:02] <Ethanol-fueled> Subsentient, that would be a good topic for research. I've seen more than my share of large roaches and dead lizards in PC cases
[19:50:09] <AzumaHazuki> Subsentient: lol, nevermind then ^^; good to hear
[19:50:09] <Ethanol-fueled> How do they get in there?
[19:50:10] <ciri> don't ask me!
[19:50:13] * AzumaHazuki uses it on her machines too
[19:50:13] <Subsentient> ahh. Yeah both my /usr/bin/cat and my Felis Domesticus are well behaved.

[19:50:57] <Subsentient> AzumaHazuki: Is that you Konomi?
[19:51:03] <AndyTheAbsurd> my two (fuzzy) cats aren't, at least one of them thinks the top of my desk is part of her territory.
[19:51:27] <Ethanol-fueled> Seen some bad tobacco situations, gummed up fans and gummy 'bacco residue all over the place.
[19:51:49] <Ethanol-fueled> The kind of dedicated tobacco smoking where the house stops smelling like smoke and starts smelling like cat piss.
[19:51:59] <Subsentient> I'm learning Javascript so I can write a bot for Warzone 2100 that brutally murders everything in its path. I'm calling it "God's Hand:
[19:52:03] <Subsentient> "
[19:52:18] <Ethanol-fueled> Nice, subsentient.
[19:52:56] <Subsentient> Ethanol-fueled: In Warzone, you got low oil and high oil, and despite high oil being *REALLY* popular, all the bots are written to play in low oil and act brain damaged and useless in high oil.
[19:53:19] <Ethanol-fueled> resist the urge to use arrays of pre-defined length whenever you need to print something...high-level languages have these awesome things called "dynamically-resizing data structures."
[19:53:25] <Subsentient> Since high oil is by FAR more popular, I think we're overdo for an insanely difficult high oil AI.
[19:53:29] <Ethanol-fueled> ("Hee hee!")
[19:54:05] <Subsentient> Ethanol-fueled: Suck my (void*)
[19:55:19] <Ethanol-fueled> hahaha
[19:55:56] <Ethanol-fueled> I hope the AM hack yields some startling revelations
[19:56:20] <Subsentient> I hope that lump on the back of my neck isn't a wart.
[19:57:08] <Ethanol-fueled> Those scares suck.
[19:57:26] <Ethanol-fueled> I had an ingrown hair on my face that I thought for a second might be a herpe.
[19:57:41] <Subsentient> Ethanol-fueled: Something strange about me is that I am vegetarian and logical, and still manage to be fat and a grotesque slob.
[19:58:24] <Ethanol-fueled> Subsentient, veggies have a lot of carbs in them.
[19:58:49] <Ethanol-fueled> as for grotesque, perhaps you're just a little bit too hard on yourself.
[19:59:27] <Ethanol-fueled> Nobody here could possibly be more grotesque than some of the "women" I've been with...unless that's a contest you actually WANT to win.
[19:59:32] <Subsentient> Ethanol-fueled: I put sheets on my bed for the first time in 3 months 2 days ago. My room looks like a bombed vending machine. Half the dishes in the house are in my room because I forget to take them in.
[19:59:40] <Ethanol-fueled> Hahahaha
[19:59:46] <Ethanol-fueled> Yeah, that's kind of slovenly.

[20:01:31] <Subsentient> AzumaHazuki: Ah. She was a frequenter in here who was a friend to all except Ethanol-fueled, which is why she left XD
[20:01:53] <AzumaHazuki> i'm fairly new, and have little opinion on Ethanol-fueled as of yet
[20:02:09] <Ethanol-fueled> Subsentient, I doubt she was a friend to you all if she was willing to bail the entire room over one lout.
[20:02:24] <Ethanol-fueled> I'm sure she was technically competent, but damn, she needs a sense of humor.
[20:02:36] <Subsentient> AzumaHazuki: I'll fill you in. Both ethanol and me are deranged, disgusting, and often offensive, but I'm the "nice one" of the two twins.
[20:02:50] <Ethanol-fueled> Subsentient's assessment is accurate.
[20:02:58] <AzumaHazuki> ...ah. Are we talking deranged and disgusting like that paedophile who keeps quoting Deuteronomy?
[20:03:06] <AzumaHazuki> because so far he's the only one i've got a problem with
[20:03:21] <AzumaHazuki> as they say in the old country, "kono rorikon domome! Shine!"
[20:03:36] <Subsentient> AzumaHazuki: No, more like the guy naked with peanut butter on his balls and a traffic cone hat screaming at traffic and throwing jars of Jif at bystanders.
[20:03:51] <AzumaHazuki> that sounds funny as hell :D
[20:04:48] <AndyTheAbsurd> sounds like the continuing adventures of FloridaMan
[20:04:54] <Ethanol-fueled> Oooh, AM leaks for nasa.gov.
[20:05:05] <AzumaHazuki> now *that* should be interesting
[20:05:05] <Subsentient> AndyTheAbsurd: lol
[20:05:09] <AzumaHazuki> red-rocket maaaaa~n
[20:06:21] <Subsentient> AzumaHazuki: You didn't run away screaming at my peanut butter imagery. I like you. You're like when they replaced Brian with Vinny in Family Guy, except I can see you being good in later episodes.
[20:07:29] <AndyTheAbsurd> Florida people be crazy. I mean, just read the stories here: http://www.tampabay.com

[20:07:55] <AndyTheAbsurd> (there's actually three stories on the page, they're all kind of hilarious.)
[20:08:12] <Subsentient> AndyTheAbsurd: My friend Frank who is a PC repair guy in the Tampa area indeed confirms all Floridians are fucking insane.
[20:09:10] <AndyTheAbsurd> Hey, I'm in the Tampa area, too! That web site I just linked to - that's who I work for.
[20:09:15] <AzumaHazuki> Subsentient: not a fan of family guy TBH, but i like the comparison to Brian
[20:09:24] <AzumaHazuki> people say i sound a lot like a female george carlin actually
[20:09:41] <Subsentient> AzumaHazuki: I'm not a big fan either honestly, but I am a nut for south park.
[20:09:47] <AzumaHazuki> south park! :)

[20:17:59] <Ethanol-fueled> Yeah, that one. Fucking legendary
[20:18:12] * AzumaHazuki suspects she'd cause integer overflow in such during most of her work days...
[20:18:36] <Ethanol-fueled> I dare you to list an episode of both South Park or Family Guy that was more legendary than that one.
[20:21:56] * Ethanol-fueled is trying to find AM leaked e-mails from former employer and current university.
[20:22:22] <AzumaHazuki> ...we think disturbingly alike on these matters
[20:22:59] <AzumaHazuki> there are a few people i would *very* much love to find dirt on
[20:26:49] <Ethanol-fueled> People are getting the e-mail addresses, then tracking down their facebooks and harassing them for their infidelity.
[20:27:25] <Ethanol-fueled> I wouldn't do THAT. I don't have a dog in this fight right now. Just a bit of voyeurism, is all.
