[00:00:40] <paulej72> you can only see so much porn
[00:01:40] <Yog-Yogguth> I'm worried everything cahnged :( (not joking, still trying to piece together the Deep Science Machine thing, it's scary, it means they'll be able to analyse all the stuff they've had trouble with so far; it's all about human behavior)
[00:03:22] <takyon> join or die
[00:03:29] <takyon> that's my advice
[00:04:55] <Yog-Yogguth> join what? :D

[00:13:55] <nick> We haven't always had the Fed to kick around — or to save our economic hides, depending on how you see it. But secrecy has been a part of the Federal Reserve (what is Janet Yellen thinking?) since its beginning.
[00:13:56] <nick> The birth of the Fed is the subject of “America’s Bank: The Epic Struggle to Create the Federal Reserve.” Author Roger Lowenstein told Marketplace’s Kai Ryssdal just how difficult it was to for the Fed’s architects to draft plans for a U.S. central bank.
[00:13:58] <nick> ...
[00:14:01] <nick> fuck those guys
[00:17:27] <nick> they struggled to create the federal reserve, bernanke had the courage to act, they're doing god's work.
[00:18:58] <paulej72> please tell us how you really feel
[00:20:53] <nick> i should save it, for when i get paid to write a book about it
[00:21:19] <nick> until then, what's the official soylentnews position?
[00:21:50] <paulej72> missionary
[00:22:04] <paulej72> or doggie
[00:22:11] <paulej72> depends on the day
[00:22:22] <takyon> or night
[00:27:14] <SpallsHurgenson> so, I go to visit my friend today; amongst his other hobbies, he's a musician and he has a bunch of instruments lying around the house
[00:28:26] <SpallsHurgenson> so while he's puttering around doing stuff, I'm sort of poking about, looking at just looking at them. he has this pile of brass instruments - trumpets and the like - sitting bell-down on a table, and when I go past I must have accidentally jostled the table so a bunch of them fall over in a clatter
[00:29:17] <paulej72> I saw "lying around the house" poking out from behind anohter window. I was hpoing we were taking about naked ladies
[00:29:35] <SpallsHurgenson> my friend comes rushing in to see what the noise is, and he goes beserk
[00:29:35] <SpallsHurgenson> he starts ranting and raving, totally angry, saying how these instruments are all incredibly valuable - how one was once owned by Dizzy Gillespe and worth tens of thousands of dollars - and how I damaged them
[00:30:13] <paulej72> fuking bad way to display high value brass
[00:30:32] <SpallsHurgenson> and he's like, "everytime you come here you do this, stuff of mine gets broken, I'm sick of it" and stuff like that. He starts cursing and gets all red and he's, like, really really furious and swearing that the trumpet is damaged and I'm going to pay for it; that sort of thing
[00:30:42] <paulej72> they make stands for this kind of stuff
[00:31:16] <SpallsHurgenson> and normally he's like the nicest, most laid-back guy so this is really out-of-character for him, and I'm getting all defensive; "I barely bumped the table, it was an accident, the horn isn't even damaged, if its so valuable why is it just sitting out there like that", that sort of thing
[00:31:32] <SpallsHurgenson> paule72: exactly!
[00:31:38] <SpallsHurgenson> and it's just getting really really uncomfortable
[00:31:39] <paulej72> http://www.amazon.com
[00:31:41] <knack> ^ 03Amazon.com: trumpet stands: Musical Instruments
[00:31:54] <SpallsHurgenson> and then suddenly he just stops... and laughs is is, like, "gotcha"
[00:31:56] <paulej72> 13 bucks
[00:32:08] <SpallsHurgenson> and I'm like, what the hell, were you just shittin' me all the time?
[00:32:21] <SpallsHurgenson> and he goes, "well you know what they say: you mess with the horns you get the bull."
[00:32:41] <SpallsHurgenson> my friends can be both incredibly clever and assholes sometimes :)
[00:32:41] <SpallsHurgenson> and he goes, "well you know what they say: you mess with the horns you get the bull."
[00:33:05] <SpallsHurgenson> (oops, why that line reappear?)
[00:33:40] <SpallsHurgenson> I swear, he was probably waiting YEARS to use that line
[00:34:12] <Yog-Yogguth> so was he bullshitting the first or second time? *ponders*
[00:34:27] * Yog-Yogguth wonders what he had hidden in that brass
[00:34:31] <SpallsHurgenson> I don't even think he PLAYS the trumpet :)
[00:34:35] <takyon> good ending to that story
[00:34:37] <Yog-Yogguth> :)
[00:35:11] <SpallsHurgenson> I didn't know whether to laugh or slug him :)

[00:38:28] <SpallsHurgenson> it was excellent acting :)
[00:38:56] <SpallsHurgenson> topped off with a terrific pun, although I didn't appreciate it much at the time
[00:39:36] <takyon> that's when he's supposed to hand you a beer

[02:51:49] <chromas> do you have emissions?
[02:52:01] <SirFinkus> I wouldn't recommend it
[02:52:07] <Ethanol-fooled> Just because more quiet and less bullshit at night to distract
[02:52:16] <Ethanol-fooled> Yeah, but it's ridiculously unhealthy
[02:52:22] <SirFinkus> but sometimes you need to take care of shit during the day
[02:52:27] <Ethanol-fooled> Yeah.
[02:52:37] <SirFinkus> and that SUCKS if you're nocturnal

[03:01:23] <Ethanol-fooled> There are BME pics out there that remind me of the way I used to make fried hot-dog sandwhiches.
[03:02:09] <Ethanol-fooled> spongy weenies split down the middle and curling over the heat.
[03:02:18] <Gravis> Ethanol-fooled: have you seen the JOS pics?
[03:02:35] <Ethanol-fooled> Nope.
[03:02:36] <Gravis> Ethanol-fooled: or of SUH
[03:02:51] <Ethanol-fooled> BME is about as far as an acronym as I'll go, bro.
[03:03:08] <SirFinkus> BME is pretty hardcore
[03:03:12] <K_benzoate> What does that mean?

[03:11:08] <SirFinkus> the jew and black paranoia is a bit much, gets pretty annyong
[03:11:13] <SirFinkus> annoying even
[03:11:43] <chromas> Anyong
[03:12:00] <Ethanol-fooled> Yeah, that is one downside. EVERYTHING is blamed on the Jews.
[03:12:34] <Gravis> SirFinkus: yes, i didn't know about /pol/ because i don't go to hate forums.
[03:12:53] <Gravis> which pretty much sums up 4chan
[03:13:01] <Ethanol-fooled> Pffffft, calling /pol/ a "hate forum." Get aload of this guy.
[03:13:30] <Ethanol-fooled> Gravis, if you want to see some REAL hate forums, check out chimpout.com, n****rmania.com, and stormfront.com

[03:14:20] <SirFinkus> really, most of the racist shit on 4chan is contained to /pol/
[03:14:44] <Ethanol-fooled> \b\ has some racist shit, but far less.
[03:14:45] <SirFinkus> boards like /n/, /g/, and /mu/ can be intresting
[03:15:11] <Ethanol-fooled> \g\ don't know shit about technology other than PCs and iGadgets.
[03:15:32] <SirFinkus> true, but I've seen some good threads there sometimes
[03:16:06] <SirFinkus> learned about plan 9 there and stuff
[03:16:15] <SirFinkus> mostly phones and shit now
[03:16:29] <Ethanol-fooled> They are really good with PC and gadget-related shit.
[03:17:17] <Ethanol-fooled> REALLY good. But that's all they're good at. I like /diy/, /k/, and /o/
[03:17:31] <Ethanol-fooled> and of course /pol/
[03:17:59] <Ethanol-fooled> \sci\ is also pretty good.
[03:18:11] <SirFinkus> 4chan's reputation is defined almost entirely by /pol/ and /b/, which is kind of stupid
[03:18:32] <Ethanol-fooled> Damn shame, but fortunately most people branch out from there.
[03:19:07] <Ethanol-fooled> or at least don't let themselves be defined by one of both of /pol/ and /b/
[03:19:16] * Ethanol-fooled is defined by /pol/

[05:27:20] <Bytram> let me rephrase the prior one; it took 25 minutes from the time the servers were scheduled to go down until we saw the first hint that they were coming back up.

[05:45:11] <Bytram> I just loaded the admin 'Stories' page as well as submissions page
[05:45:21] <Bytram> things are looking good from this side.
[05:45:25] <paulej72> OK I am not planinng on staying up for neon's maintenance
[05:46:06] <TheMightyBuzzard> okey doke, i'll grab a quick cat nap then check up on it. not that i can watch from the linode control panel.
[05:46:08] <Bytram> if neon has troubles, then helium should take up the slack, right?

[05:46:33] <TheMightyBuzzard> in theory, yep
[05:46:48] <Bytram> was just able to ssh to sodium
[05:47:19] <Bytram> still no joy with ssh to magnesium, but that's prolly just a matter of time, and not entirely necessary at this point with sodium running as it should.
[05:47:21] <paulej72> I did do a backup of the db during the sodium downtime
[05:48:35] <TheMightyBuzzard> this whole spreading out our reboots over three days thing sucks
[05:49:01] <paulej72> helium should take over for neon. we will need to manually restart ndb on neon when it comes back up. I am a bit afraid to set that on rc.local

[14:55:22] <cmn32480> slower on the travel... but we are going to be doing major systems upgrades between now adn the end of the year. The accounting system, Excahnge (maybe), and a few others
[14:55:33] <Bytram> oy
[14:55:35] <Bytram> good luck!
[14:55:57] * cmn32480 gladly accepts good luck with gratitude.
[14:56:36] <mrcoolbp> cmn32480: not too much new with me, I've been playing with VR which is fun
[14:56:56] <cmn32480> interesting
[14:57:06] <cmn32480> not somethign that I have had any time to look inot at all.
[14:57:13] <cmn32480> what are your impressions?
[14:57:55] <mrcoolbp> Well.... it's a DK1 Oculus Rift which means the tech is pre-1st gen and already 2-3 years old
[14:58:49] <mrcoolbp> STILL... pretty amazing, just that the resolution is low, and the tracking latency causes some sickness (not to mention I was flying an x-wing in outer space doing barrell rolls so that didn't help the sim-sickness factor = P
[14:59:17] <cmn32480> but it sounds like fun!
[14:59:24] <mrcoolbp> it's pretty immersive, can't WAIT to see the production model early 2016
[14:59:49] <mrcoolbp> It will cost me ~$400 for the unit and about $300 for the gfx card that will bring my system up to specs though
[15:00:00] <mrcoolbp> (I have onboard gfx right now)
[15:00:28] <TheMightyBuzzard> right, and that is all the coding gas i have for today. time for more nicotine and caffeine and some
[15:00:32] <cmn32480> if all that needs to be upgraded is the gfx card, that isn't bad at al
[15:01:00] <cmn32480> at home, I'm on a P4 that isn't really cutting it anymore for much of anytrhign
[15:01:06] <mrcoolbp> later Buzz
[15:01:21] <nick> a P4 isn't cutting edge anymore?
[15:01:23] <TheMightyBuzzard> not out yet, just afk.
[15:01:30] <mrcoolbp> cmn32480: well I got a decent system last year: Core i5 with 8gb ram
[15:01:50] <mrcoolbp> *almost* got the i7 but I'm quite happy with the i5
[15:01:53] <cmn32480> that ought to run most stuff
[15:02:35] <mrcoolbp> yup, but the extra gfx card is necessary, you see, you are rendering 2x as many pixels at 90fps
[15:02:56] <cmn32480> good point
[15:02:58] <mrcoolbp> that's intense by todays standards
[15:03:11] <cmn32480> you ahve to use SLI?
[15:03:29] <mrcoolbp> I'm actually not sure, I don't think so though

[15:03:56] <cmn32480> sounds like a fun way to spend some time
[15:04:08] <cmn32480> very smart doing the research first
[15:04:10] <mrcoolbp> and I'm behind the curve working on the first model (DK1) there's a DK2 that I haven't even seen yet, then the Prod model in a few months
[15:04:37] <mrcoolbp> I'm borrowing it from my friend, so I only have 2 weeks to work with it
[15:05:03] <mrcoolbp> I've been going crazy trying to learn as much as possible and find as many demos as possible that are actually compatible with my kit
[15:05:37] <mrcoolbp> cmn32480: Okay, I've commissioned myself to do a writeup on a "stretch goal" for the extra money we have rolling in this period. I'm off to do that. You can help proofread when I'm done if you are around.
[15:05:52] <cmn32480> certainly.

[19:47:20] <mrcoolbp> Gravis: jeez man it's just a song
[19:47:48] <Gravis> mrcoolbp: this is the internet, everything is a matter of life and death.
[19:47:56] <mrcoolbp> + that's why we got "knack" to explain the links to people
[19:48:04] <mrcoolbp> Gravis: Too true
[19:48:59] <Gravis> mrcoolbp: but i would personally prefer if you refrained from links that you know people will likely find uninteresting or bothersome
[19:49:22] <mrcoolbp> Gravis: it's Back To the Future day, so let me have this one?
[19:49:23] <Gravis> mrcoolbp: although... there still is the third option. ;D
[19:50:00] * chromas wonders how we'd know when a random person would find certain things to be uninteresting
[19:50:12] <Gravis> mrcoolbp: the internet never lets anything go, otherwise it wouldn't be the internet.
[19:50:28] <mrcoolbp> Gravis = the internet
[19:50:40] <Gravis> i am part of internet
[19:51:12] * chromas finds this part of the internet to be uninteresting or bothersome
[19:51:25] <Bytram|afk> if it's on the net, then someone must have thought it was interesting -- you can't link to uninteresting things on the net! QED. ;)
[19:51:28] <mrcoolbp> Gravis: like I said, the link was clearly explained by the bot, so feel free NOT TO CLICK ON LINKS on the internet = )
[19:51:56] <Gravis> "the internet" is comprised of individuals who will provide feedback even if you don't want it.
[19:51:57] <mrcoolbp> Gravis: would you click on a goatze link if it was clearly defined then complain about it?
[19:52:21] <mrcoolbp> I mean, more Power (of love) to you, but seems pointless to me
[19:52:36] <mrcoolbp> = P
[19:52:39] <Gravis> mrcoolbp: obviously i would complain about the lack of goats on the page.
[19:52:50] <mrcoolbp> fair 'nuff
[19:53:20] <mrcoolbp> Gravis: Your stance that you would personally prefer that I not post links to songs that you don't like is duely noted
[19:53:21] <chromas> there are goats, you just have to look really deep
[19:53:25] <mrcoolbp> lol
[19:53:38] <Gravis> LOL
[19:54:04] <Gravis> chromas: an excellent internet retort
[19:54:06] <Bytram|afk> Gravis: could you please post links to the songs you don't like so we can make sure to not post links to them?
[19:54:42] <mrcoolbp> rofl
[19:54:59] <Bytram|afk> if you leave any out, though, then it's fair game for us to post links to them.
[19:55:01] <Bytram|afk> ;)
[19:55:31] <mrcoolbp> honestly given the context of the day I thought people might enjoy the blast from the past terrible 80s song
[19:55:49] <mrcoolbp> every once in a while I like a good rick roll. There I admit it!
[19:56:01] <Gravis> pff... 80s sucked, even in the 80s.
[19:56:04] * mrcoolbp may even dance a bit and sing along
[19:56:51] <Gravis> the difference was that everyone was doing lines of coke, so they didn't notice the music very much

[19:57:35] <chromas> what were they using to line the coke? they didn't "need no credit card to line this thing"
[19:57:53] <mrcoolbp> hah chromas

[20:05:02] <Gravis> and now, since it's become cheap
[20:05:09] <cmn32480> I think the 90's was crack

[20:55:47] <Gravis> SoylentSnow: i think that just means the search functionality can be more precise or something
[20:56:10] <Bytram> IIRC (If I Recall Correctly), we had a period when we were discussing the creation of subscribers.
[20:56:30] <Bytram> there was a question as to what benefits we would make available to a user should htey choose to submit.
[20:56:38] <Bytram> this is one of the things that came upat the time.
[20:57:18] <Bytram> AFAIK (As Far As I Know) this functionality, though not advertised, is generally available to anyone -- it was easier to do that than it was to gate it by [not] having a subscription
[20:57:30] <Bytram> let me see if I can find the Wiki page on it

[21:10:26] <crutchy> the thingy book that i can't think of the name of right now for some reason book
[21:10:40] <mrcoolbp> crutchy: they are in slash somewhere (now rehash I guess), there was talk of changing them at some point

[21:16:05] <crutchy> oh wait. there's 2179 quotes in there... somewhere
[21:16:24] <Bytram> a couple or so years ago, there was a bug on slash and when it went to display the 'fortune', instead of just one it pushed out *lots* and *lots* of them.
[21:16:37] <SoylentSnow> There are multiple pages on that link. That is perfect!
[21:16:45] <crutchy> they do look like fortune quotes. esp with the -- before the name
[21:16:47] <SoylentSnow> Thanks exec!
[21:16:50] <Bytram> I saved them away somewhere, but now that I have access to the source, if I just knew where they were I could just point to 'em on github

[21:17:09] <mrcoolbp> SoylentSnow ^
[21:17:23] <mrcoolbp> told ya someone would know where they are

[22:30:08] <paulej72> well the bulb is about a year old, but I mostly run it at 50% output which decreases its lifespan.
[22:30:32] <mrcoolbp> interesting, it would prefer to run at it's rating?
[22:32:15] <paulej72> well part of the magic of a halogen is the filiment heats up and comes to equilbrium with the gas in the bulb and what gets deposited on the glass. when run at lower power and thus temperature it deposits more on the glass and thus slowly vaporizes until it breaks
