[00:01:53] <julian> Well, that sucks ^
[00:02:11] <julian> I've been using Windows 10 with most of those Group Policy settings
[00:11:50] <SirFinkus> or has windows been using you?
[00:12:16] <SirFinkus> I wouldn't trust the settings anyway
[00:12:39] <SirFinkus> it already ignores the hosts file for microsoft domains
[00:13:00] <julian> Neither do I. But it's been possible to remove the annoying things, like the lock screen shenanigans
[00:13:19] <julian> And One Drive, and Windows Store bullshit
[00:16:28] <Bender> [SoylentNews] - AMD: GPU + SSDs == SSG - http://sylnt.us - fat-and-slow
[00:18:53] <Deucalion> aye - they just removed those options for Home and Pro. No doubt someone on the interwebs will disclose how to workaround it soon enough
[00:19:48] <julian> The only thing keeping me using Windows at all are a few games on Steam that don't have Linux versions
[00:30:43] <arti> can always use an earlier version o.o?
[00:31:35] <Deucalion> Even those that do are kinda glitchy. The Unity engine has a really annoying sound glitch on Linux that make some sound channels playback at ~1/10th speed :(
[00:32:10] <Gravis> Deucalion: weird
[00:32:56] <arti> wwwweeeeeeiiiiiirrrrrdddd
[00:33:05] <Gravis> julian: the fact that you are /still/ using windows 10 is your fault.
[00:39:19] <Deucalion> Gravis, happens when you change focus to another window and then return to the game. Apparently it is a known issue in wwise

[09:02:06] <SirFinkus> I don't know who the douches in the video are
[09:09:31] <boru> Mostly musicians 'inspired' by him. I can name a few of them, but yeah, good track.
[09:10:12] <SirFinkus> the lyrics are great
[09:10:22] <SirFinkus> you can tell that long tongued liar
[09:11:39] <boru> Well, JC turned into a bit of a bible basher towards the end of his life. I prefer the earlier stuff, in general.
[09:12:07] <boru> Some of the covers he did are great, though.
[09:13:29] <SirFinkus> still great stuff
[09:13:39] <SirFinkus> I actually like his biblical stuff better
[09:13:45] <SirFinkus> as an atheist even
[09:14:27] <SirFinkus> not that I'm super familiar with him
[09:14:45] <SirFinkus> but the songs I do know are all biblical

[11:08:18] <Runaway1956> OUCH!!
[11:08:33] <Runaway1956> August has just sneakd up and bit me in the ass!
[11:10:43] <Runaway1956> Thankfully, There are only 142 days until Winter
[11:19:41] <Runaway1956> https://days.to
[11:19:46] <systemd> ^ 03How many days until Winter?
[11:19:58] <TheMightyBuzzard> nothin wrong with august cept that i get officially older in it
[11:20:13] <boru> You're getting older all the time, silly.
[11:20:31] <TheMightyBuzzard> hence "officially"
[11:21:19] <Runaway1956> Well, August tends to be hot. You know how that progression works, June is pretty warm, July gets hot, August just wraps that heat tighter around you, and September only sometimes brings a breath of fresh, cool air.
[11:21:27] * TheMightyBuzzard is just biding his time until he can start up a blacksmith shop and spend his days drinking coffee out in front of it with all the other local retirees
[11:22:20] <Runaway1956> retardee you mean
[11:22:42] <TheMightyBuzzard> s'what all the really old farts in my home town used to do. i decided on it as a life goal at like 16.
[11:22:49] * Runaway1956 has never planned on retiring
[11:23:13] <TheMightyBuzzard> you should. working at 70 is not going to be enjoyable.
[11:23:42] <Runaway1956> Mehhhh, I'll think about it when I have problems getting out of bed, and getting dressed.
[11:24:20] <Runaway1956> Or, when the bastard take away my driver's license
[11:24:29] <TheMightyBuzzard> which is precisely why social security was created. shame it'll leave you living in poverty.
[11:24:51] <Runaway1956> Ehhh, I got 401k to supplement that SS
[11:24:59] <Runaway1956> and so does the wife
[11:25:20] <TheMightyBuzzard> luck to yas then cause that's a crap shoot.
[11:25:34] <Runaway1956> Two SS checks and two 401k should keep us fed, at least
[11:25:51] <TheMightyBuzzard> prolly but it won't keep you in hookers and blow
[11:26:16] <Runaway1956> of course, life itself is a crap shoot - I don't know that I'll live to retire
[11:26:34] <Runaway1956> Some fuckhead may run into me headon tonight, on my way to work.
[11:26:44] <TheMightyBuzzard> and wait till they jack the minimum wage up a few times. the inflation will make your savings look like pocket change.
[11:27:56] <Runaway1956> But, winter is coming, that's the important thing.
[11:28:06] <TheMightyBuzzard> thank you ned stark
[11:28:22] <TheMightyBuzzard> i swear to fuck, if they'd just have separate minimum wage levels for teenagers and adults a lot of that issue would be solved
[11:28:26] <Runaway1956> That, and the revolution won't be televised . . .
[11:28:37] <TheMightyBuzzard> no, it'll be youtubed
[11:28:58] <TheMightyBuzzard> or twitched, or whatever kids are doing nowadays
[11:29:12] <Runaway1956> I'll stand my ground, and shoot down a few FEMA agents, but they'll ultimately get me, relieving me of any concern for retirement
[11:29:33] <TheMightyBuzzard> ya, thas one of my backup plans as well
[11:29:34] <Runaway1956> thought the kids were twerking
[11:29:45] * TheMightyBuzzard shurgs
[11:29:56] <TheMightyBuzzard> we're too old to keep up with what they're doing
[11:30:29] <Runaway1956> Fuck 'em all, right? We had hula hoops and frisbees, all they've got a cell phones
[11:30:33] <TheMightyBuzzard> see i have that plan, my zombie plan, and a plan where i don't die
[11:31:33] <TheMightyBuzzard> dude, we had chicks and booze. all they got are naked phone pictures.
[11:32:09] <Runaway1956> Don't forget puppies that licked your face and ears - all they got are more pictures
[11:32:47] <TheMightyBuzzard> go karts
[11:32:54] <TheMightyBuzzard> without bumpers or tracks
[11:33:04] <Runaway1956> pocket knives
[11:33:29] <TheMightyBuzzard> with a ton of different blades if we were lucky
[11:33:57] <TheMightyBuzzard> shotguns in our back glass. at school.
[11:34:20] <Runaway1956> and capguns - it was so much fun driving Grandma batty with the snap-snap-snap when everyone was locked in the house in the middle of winter
[11:34:50] <cmn32480> TheMightyBuzzard - my cats ain't gonna livec long enough for Runaway1956 to retire
[11:34:59] <Runaway1956> Nowadays, a whiff of gunpowder will surely send someone to jail
[11:35:07] <TheMightyBuzzard> shoot, it was grandma gave us ours. she lurved winding us up to annoy the parents
[11:35:52] <Runaway1956> cmn32480 - just put the cats into a box with some cesium
[11:36:44] <Runaway1956> And, don't forget to give the cat a cool name, like Random Numbers
[11:36:51] <cmn32480> great.. zombie cat experiments.. that can't possibly go wrong
[11:37:06] <cmn32480> my cats are named Hooker and blow
[11:37:07] <TheMightyBuzzard> mom, we're gonna go play outside. Mom: where you gonna be? Riding bikes across town to <blah>
[11:37:35] <cmn32480> ^^ the good old days
[11:37:41] <Runaway1956> more like, "Where are you going?" "Out."
[11:37:57] <TheMightyBuzzard> yar, and mom was like "woot!"
[11:38:02] <cmn32480> "I'll be home by dinner
[11:38:04] <cmn32480> "
[11:38:44] <TheMightyBuzzard> "lil fuckers is gone! i can have a nap!"
[11:39:24] <Runaway1956> There was always that crazy crap about, "who are you going with?" I said "Fred" and that made it alright, Fred said "Runaway" and that made it alright with his mom
[11:39:40] <Runaway1956> But, I knew Fred didnt' have a lick of sense, and he knew that I didn't either
[11:39:49] <Runaway1956> Mothers were pretty goofy in that respect
[11:40:03] <TheMightyBuzzard> i was mostly good unless i said "Ben".
[11:40:24] <TheMightyBuzzard> ben was the most awesome bad ideas guy evar
[11:41:21] <TheMightyBuzzard> got me swats in kindergarten, in trouble with the cops in middle school, and nearly killed a few times in highschool
[11:41:31] <Runaway1956> shit - I may have to drive to LIttle Rock
[11:41:43] <TheMightyBuzzard> heh, i was there saturday
[11:41:49] <TheMightyBuzzard> briefly
[11:44:08] * TheMightyBuzzard sighs
[11:44:40] <TheMightyBuzzard> nother trip back to OK in september for two goddamned weeks then another in december for a week.
[11:45:07] <TheMightyBuzzard> i am really, really getting tired of seeing arkansas
[11:45:26] <TheMightyBuzzard> if it would just move the fuck out my way, it'd be so much quicker a trip
[11:45:35] <cmn32480> who'd you piss off tio keep getting sent to Oklahoma?
[11:46:00] <TheMightyBuzzard> dude... consider who you're asking that
[11:46:27] <cmn32480> I suppose that the list of who you haven't pissed off is probably shorter
[11:46:47] <TheMightyBuzzard> yar. start at god and work your way down the list.

[12:32:18] <NCommander> I find it fitting that I was well known for my novel skills way back when we launched
[12:32:40] <cmn32480> your novel skills in several senses of the word
[12:33:33] <NCommander> half my quotes are about what how I abuse the editoral team
[12:34:04] <cmn32480> we appreciate that not happening so much anymore
[12:34:19] <NCommander> <Bender> Quote 85 - <NCommander> xlefay, not my fault that I was combined with the unfortunate qualities of quotability and verboness
[12:34:28] * cmn32480 recalls having to take a sick day after editing one of your novels
[12:34:38] <NCommander> cmn32480, no, I've just been writing a rather long one over the last year
[12:35:08] <cmn32480> trashy romance?
[12:35:48] <boru> Agricultural erotica?
[12:35:51] <NCommander> A summary of USENET in 56 volumes
[12:35:56] <NCommander> cmn32480, boru: so basically, that
[12:36:15] <boru> Apt.
[12:36:32] <cmn32480> :-)
[12:36:58] <boru> To quote Gene Spafford; "Usenet is like a herd of performing elephants with diarrhea -- massive, difficult to redirect, awe-inspiring, entertaining, and a source of mind-boggling amounts of excrement when you least expect it."
[12:37:12] <NCommander> For some reason, I can expect alt.agricultural.porn is probably a thing
[12:37:26] <boru> 'I can expect' -- don't act coy with us!
[12:37:37] <NCommander> boru, well, I can Rule 35 it and create it
[12:37:41] * NCommander knows how to do that
[12:38:32] * NCommander has run private newsgroup servers
[12:38:57] <boru> Same here. In the midst of setting up a new one at the moment, actually.
[12:39:07] <boru> My old one rotted, so time to start again.
[12:39:20] <NCommander> Its kinda a pity NNTP is so engrained that it will likely never see another major update. It would be nice if it could function closer to IMAP vs POP3
[12:39:28] <NCommander> boru, newsgroup or newsserver?
[12:39:29] <boru> I may migrate much of the old one. Lots of gold in there.
[12:40:04] * NCommander notes getting INN setup is much voodoo
[12:40:20] <NCommander> and C-News is dated to the point that I doubt you could make it work these days without a virgin sacrifice
[12:40:22] <boru> A server.
[12:40:27] <boru> Aye, I'm used to INN.
[12:40:39] <boru> It's improved _a little_, but not bu much.
[12:40:43] <NCommander> I actually did some work to spool rehash/Soylentnews into INN
[12:41:02] <NCommander> Was a fun project, but never got around to getting it finished or bidirectional
[12:42:18] <NCommander> Its actually not THAT hard to get something to spool bidirectionally into INN if you know how that linkage works and are willing to abuse moderated groups
[12:42:24] <boru> I was hoping to get SASL working with INN, but I'll probably just set people's $SHELL to passwd and let them handle their own passwords that way.
[12:43:03] <boru> Not optimal, but oh well.
[12:43:06] <NCommander> boru, probably saner to run posts through pgpcheck and then have them get approved that way
[12:43:11] <boru> I wrote a bunch of Snort rules for INN, as well, actually.
[12:43:34] <NCommander> You can actually run INN stuff through spamassassin if you don't mind running Sendmail+Milter
[12:43:41] <NCommander> I don't think you can get postfix to work with bang paths
[12:43:43] <boru> Sure, I've used that before, but most people have no idea what PGP is, let alone how it works...
[12:44:15] <NCommander> It's a pity that USENET is such a pain to setup servers for
[12:44:29] <NCommander> A decentralized variant would be awesome in this day and age
[12:44:35] <boru> Well, it could be easier, but INN isn't _that_ bad when you get used to the idiosyncrasies.
[12:44:56] <NCommander> boru, I meant in terms of both getting links setup to the network, and the sheer amount of resources it takes
[12:44:57] <boru> I wish someone like the OpenBSD project would get their hands on it, and produce something like OpenSMTP.
[12:45:15] <boru> Ah, well, I've only run small servers. I didn't pull usenet or anything like that.
[12:45:19] <boru> Text only, too.
[12:45:44] <boru> I tend to run all of my services in jails these days, too.
[12:45:46] * NCommander notes most people would probably be surprised to the extent UUCP lives on in the backbone of USENET
[12:48:27] <boru> Feh, now I'm motivated to work on getting that server set up again.
[12:48:47] <boru> There weren't too many groups, but it had high SNR. Information dense.

[14:28:31] <Runaway1956> Hmmm - they do weigh a lot . . . .
[14:28:51] <Runaway1956> 27 pounds to the box, where Oreos are about 1 pound
[14:29:23] <boru> How many grams is a mole of Oreo?
[14:29:37] <AndyTheAbsurd> Oreos are knock offs of Hydrox anyway
[14:29:46] <Runaway1956> Pretty close to that of a mouse of Oreo

[14:30:53] <Runaway1956> I'll guess at 4 or 5 grams
[14:30:58] <boru> They're not homogeneous. You'd need seperate molar values for the saccaride filling and chocolatey husk.
[14:31:21] <boru> Only a fool would attempt to dope the chocolatey husk with heavy metals.

[14:33:24] <AndyTheAbsurd> One mole of Oreos (assuming an average weight of 4.5g per Oreo) is 2.7 septillion metric tons

[14:34:07] <boru> What about mecury laden oreos, then?
[14:34:15] <Runaway1956> It would take a huge freaking mouse to eat all those Oreos AndyTheAbsurd
[14:36:03] <AndyTheAbsurd> boru: depends on what the concentration of mecury is...and I don't know how much you could saturate either the cookie or the filling part of Oreos before they became noticeably not the same substance.

[23:21:20] <Deucalion> It is with the greatest sadness that I must announce that diego passed away today. My thoughts are with his family at this time.
[23:22:06] <cmn32480> Diego?
[23:22:12] <cmn32480> Dora's Counsin?
[23:22:15] <cmn32480> how sad
[23:32:11] <Deucalion> He was the stick chart bot... no-one ever looked at it, so I um... humanely took him out back and removed any sign he ever existed. He was unconscious at the time and it was swift so he would have felt nothing. I still feel bad though...
[23:34:07] <cmn32480> a stick chart bot?
[23:34:11] <cmn32480> ~g stick chart bot
[23:34:13] <exec> [google] hodl.org/
[23:35:00] <cmn32480> so he was s'posed to make graphs?
[23:35:07] <cmn32480> and nobody ever used him
[23:36:54] <Deucalion> He made relationship charts between people in #soylent - the thicker the line between two people the more they directly interacted. So it generated a kinda spider web of who interacted with who else. All buried now.
[23:38:10] * cmn32480 removes his hat in respect
[23:39:56] <Deucalion> PISG may be next to go... no-one looks at that either
[23:40:14] <TheMightyBuzzard> what's pisg?
[23:40:23] <Deucalion> http://stats.sylnt.us
[23:40:29] <systemd> ^ 03#soylent @ irc.soylentnews.org stats by Deucalion
[23:40:57] <TheMightyBuzzard> oh, ya it'd be neat if i'd knowed it was there =P
[23:41:10] <cmn32480> agreed
[23:41:14] <cmn32480> what bot does that?
[23:41:24] <Deucalion> Get rid of the PISG process means we can get rid of the Regurgitator eggdrop
[23:41:56] <TheMightyBuzzard> hrm, okay. worth it.
[23:41:59] <Deucalion> Heh - it was linkied in the #soylent subject forever
[23:42:12] <TheMightyBuzzard> not that we need to with our shiny new ram
[23:42:29] <TheMightyBuzzard> hell, even bender got a reprieve
[23:43:24] <cmn32480> you were gonna kill bender???
[23:43:24] <Deucalion> cmn32480, Regurgitator sits in here logging. The PISG process runs on the IRC server and parses those logs into that pretty page of... um/// useful charts n shit
[23:43:35] <Deucalion> Bender is a memory soak
[23:43:41] <Deucalion> and needs to dies
[23:43:55] <Deucalion> But no-one wants to re-write his functions
[23:44:22] <TheMightyBuzzard> i was gonna kill his rss ability and put it into mrplow or something. it's abysmally written.
[23:44:26] * cmn32480 nominates TheMightyBuzzard
[23:44:58] <TheMightyBuzzard> the rest of him... meh. he uses a trivial amount of ram without the rss.
[23:45:39] <Deucalion> TMB - Regurgitator can do RSS - but was lacking in some area that I now forget. And no-one wants to fix up TCL script :D
[23:45:49] <TheMightyBuzzard> truth
[23:46:00] <TheMightyBuzzard> ditto python or i'd just fix bender
[23:46:36] <Deucalion> At least the original rss-bot didn't eat memory like Bender does. It's all about motivation really I guess.
[23:46:44] <TheMightyBuzzard> yar
[23:47:20] <TheMightyBuzzard> could rewrite his rss-iness in perl and let it be a system bot instead of a personal one like MrPlow
[23:48:28] <TheMightyBuzzard> or we could talk Subsentient into rewriting it in C++ and it'd be light and fast
[23:48:44] <cmn32480> and covered in vomit
[23:48:46] <Deucalion> The thing that puts me off is the over abundance of endless regex for parsing both RSS and Atom feeds.... my eyes go squiffy just trying to make sense
[23:49:13] <TheMightyBuzzard> nod nod. s'why i use libraries. my regex-fu is strong but not elite.
[23:49:32] <cmn32480> my programming is non-existent
[23:50:25] <Deucalion> I don't even remember why we retired Regurgitator in favour of Bender for RSS. Kinda remember it was a trivial thing.
[23:50:39] * TheMightyBuzzard shurgs
[23:50:51] <Deucalion> Probably need a fork of the rss-synd plugin
[23:51:35] <Deucalion> And someone to be arsed to get all TCL up in the place. Which could only be me - as any sane person would run a mile
[23:51:48] <TheMightyBuzzard> as would i
[23:52:00] <TheMightyBuzzard> i'd rather fix bender
[23:52:15] <Deucalion> Fuck me - I wouldn't
[23:52:32] <Deucalion> noodly appendages everywhere that bastard
[23:52:47] <TheMightyBuzzard> ya but you'd only be concerned with one plugin worth
