[12:24:49] <crutchy> yes it does

[12:25:11] <TheMightyBuzzard> his bot detected hotdogs too but poorly
[12:25:15] <chromas> a chest of tits instead of a chest of booty

[12:32:02] <TheMightyBuzzard> god damnit. some fucking system update broke my keyboard's macro keys.
[12:32:26] <chromas> I think it's time we fired Bonder. Where's Flexo?
[12:32:49] <TheMightyBuzzard> and it's been like three years since i last set them up so i really do not remember how i got them working in the first place
[12:33:08] <TheMightyBuzzard> chromas, he quit spewing headlines onto twitter too
[12:33:17] <chromas> Probably got banned
[12:33:32] <chromas> Maybe your scripts are still there but just need a tweakin'
[12:33:58] <TheMightyBuzzard> prolly some update to the fucking api
[12:34:08] <Bytram> gotta run...
[12:34:13] <Bytram> have a great day everyone!

[12:37:13] * TheMightyBuzzard gives them to crutchy too just for good measure
[12:38:56] <chromas> sweet. 1 kilopoints
[12:40:05] <TheMightyBuzzard> grrr
[12:40:13] <TheMightyBuzzard> stupid fuckin keyboard
[12:40:33] <chromas> wish I had that many on the site. So many Touchés to give out

[12:43:07] <crutchy> i've got a keyboard here at home with 21 macro keys and one at work with like 30 or so, and i can't get any of the fucken things to work
[12:43:24] <chromas> switch to linux
[12:43:30] <crutchy> maybe they don't like inverted gravity
[12:44:01] <chromas> You need to pay the ozzy markup
[12:47:07] <TheMightyBuzzard> well the fucking things worked yesterday but i also did a big damned system update yesterday
[12:48:22] <boru> Me too.
[12:48:24] <crutchy> they were obviously insecure and needed patching
[12:48:28] <chromas> #MeToo
[12:48:31] <crutchy> trust microsoft
[12:49:02] <boru> Switched my native ports provider from portmaster to poudriere now that FreeBSD ports have FLAVORs.
[12:49:06] <TheMightyBuzzard> ha! fingered it out
[12:49:14] <crutchy> that update probably saved your life. those macro keys were like cherry bombs waiting to go off at any moment
[12:49:24] <boru> I had been using it for crosscompiled ports, but the flavours thing broke portmaster.
[12:50:06] <TheMightyBuzzard> the usb library for python wasn't getting built for python 3.5 or 3.6

[12:52:33] <boru> Very funny.
[12:52:47] <boru> You certainly switched that up.

[13:03:30] * TheMightyBuzzard scratches his head and wonders how the fuck this keyboard is autodetecting
[13:03:55] <boru> Freedesktop 'magic'
[13:04:01] <boru> Xorg does that now.
[13:04:15] <boru> evdev or whatever it's called.
[13:05:05] <TheMightyBuzzard> well i mean there's a command that needs run for the macro keys to get detected and a udev ruleset to make it autodetect and run but i don't actually have that ruleset installed
[13:05:34] <TheMightyBuzzard> so yeah, it's fuckin magic i guess.
[13:06:18] <boru> It doesn't have the windows feature which assumes every serial device is a mouse, thankfully.
[13:06:23] <boru> Well, yet.
[13:06:43] <TheMightyBuzzard> windows is doing that now? fun.
[13:07:07] <boru> It's done it since 95, and the bug continued on into NT, right up to w10.
[13:07:18] <boru> "Working as intended" apparently.
[13:07:28] <boru> Just like the NTFS tunnelling 'feature'.
[13:07:51] <TheMightyBuzzard> weird. wonder how i got my hand crafted null modem cable workin back in the day then.
[13:07:54] <boru> Might've been in win3.1, don't recall.
[13:08:27] <boru> It's in their knowledge base somewhere.
[13:08:33] <boru> I've only ever seen it in action the once.
[13:08:44] <TheMightyBuzzard> had an old pentium 133MHz laptop i wanted some files off of and all it had for networking was the serial port and a 14.4 modem.
[13:10:55] <TheMightyBuzzard> was fun really. jacked some serial cable ends off of something or other, soldered some cat5 between the ends, yay communication.
[13:11:48] <boru> Pft, it was a pentium. You could've read the file off the disk, and transfered it by the EMI alone.
[13:12:29] <TheMightyBuzzard> yeah but then i wouldn't have gotten to build anything.
[13:13:12] <boru> I'm just half-heartedly bikeshedding.
[13:14:54] <TheMightyBuzzard> course given the size and speed of the hdd in it, it probably would have been faster to just copy the files by reading them off the screen and typing them on the other computer.
[13:14:56] <chromas> Sounds like an sjw term, like whataboutism, gaslighting and dogwhistle
[13:15:20] * TheMightyBuzzard likes gaslighting
[13:15:25] <TheMightyBuzzard> cuts down on the stench
[13:15:59] <chromas> install a fan that sucks air through the little flush holes and pipes it to a vent stack

[13:16:04] <upstart> ^ 03The Bikeshed email — PHKs Bikeshed
[13:16:07] <boru> For reference.
[13:17:04] <chromas> What importance are you avoiding, mister?
[13:17:48] <boru> Oh, I thought you didn't know what bikeshedding was, or who PHK is.
[13:17:49] <boru> Nevermind.
[13:18:31] <chromas> I didn't but I looked it up right before you pasted that. reading now
[13:19:30] <chromas> wait, does reading this count as bikeshedding?
[13:20:02] <boru> The bikeshed was inside of you all along.
[13:22:45] <TheMightyBuzzard> oh holy shit do i need to do some ~ cleanup. i have abs stuff in ~/work still.
[13:23:14] <TheMightyBuzzard> i ain't been on arch for quite some time

[13:24:53] <boru> That's not true!
[13:25:03] <TheMightyBuzzard> maybe but it's funny
[13:25:07] <boru> Pft.
[13:26:16] <chromas> You could port sn to reddit code
[13:26:36] * chromas raises shield
[13:27:41] <boru> You'd better start rotating your shield frequencies; this is going to ugly.
[13:27:49] <boru> Get ugly, even.
[13:29:39] <chromas> You'd think they'd just do that all the time
[13:29:51] <chromas> Even we have spread spectrum in everything now
[13:30:07] <TheMightyBuzzard> i think we should just rewrite the whole thing in rust.
[13:30:13] <boru> You monster.
[13:30:15] <chromas> Maybe not in the 80s when the future was more than it is now
[13:30:36] <chromas> Rust + Go
[13:30:52] <TheMightyBuzzard> no Go. pokemon is gay.
[13:31:14] <boru> Python and ruby.
[13:32:02] <TheMightyBuzzard> well we could get noobass coders to volunteer at least. unfortunately we'd lose me.
[13:32:15] <chromas> Is Ruby still around? I barely hear anything about it now
[13:32:29] <TheMightyBuzzard> i think they ran it out of town on a rail
[13:32:39] <boru> Isn't that site Ruby Blog^W^Whackernews dedicated to it daily?
[13:32:53] <chromas> TheMightyBuzzard: but the savings. your pay is just too damn high!
[13:33:11] <TheMightyBuzzard> s'true. i make like 15x what the poor eds do.
[13:33:27] <chromas> Haven't read hn much lately. Isn't it like a hipster circlejerk?
[13:33:38] <boru> Yes.
[13:33:48] <boru> If you must read it, try ngate.
[13:33:49] <chromas> though I think 99% of tech sites are
[13:33:56] <boru> http://n-gate.com
[13:33:57] <upstart> ^ 03n-gate.com. we can't both be right.
[13:34:36] <TheMightyBuzzard> the only things i don't like about rust are A) hipster sjw cunts B) they keep putting kitchen sink bullshit into the core language
[13:34:50] <boru> And that the compile is so fecking slow.
[13:34:57] <boru> It's worse than coming C++
[13:35:08] <TheMightyBuzzard> wouldn't know. never tried anything bigger than an irc bot.
[13:35:08] <chromas> Does that hurt?
[13:35:48] * chromas has never had C++ come out but can imagine the peen pain
[13:36:16] <TheMightyBuzzard> ya, the +s look like they'd snag on the way out
[13:38:01] <TheMightyBuzzard> gah! i dunno what i ate last night but i'm not doing it ever again.
[13:38:45] <TheMightyBuzzard> smoke break

[13:55:23] <boru> Oh, I just realised the typo. I think I was talking to a colleague at the same time; _compiling_ C++, naturally.

[22:48:47] <Exaeta> Please make it where we can disable anonymous comments on our journal entries.
[22:50:21] <Exaeta> It seems that moderation is being abused as a tool for people to censor facts.
[22:50:50] <Exaeta> What is the soylent community going to do about this? nothing?
[22:51:22] <Exaeta> And can we disable anonymous moderation?

[23:21:26] <SoyGuest22783> should be
[23:25:05] <SoyGuest22783> a link to a journal demonstrating the problem might help diagnose if the behaviour seen is expected or not.
[23:25:44] <SoyGuest22783> Presumably the final question is something about demanding the identity of those who moderate on your journal.
[23:26:59] <TheMightyBuzzard> Exaeta, in order, interesting idea. it happens but overall things come out more fair than not. they counteract bad moderations with good ones, just not instantly. and "hell no" has been the staff consensus every time that was proposed since it would serve no purpose except to start feuds.

[23:37:10] <SoyGuest22783> Oh noze - who allowed anonymous ++'s on the IRC chan!?!?!?
[23:37:35] <TheMightyBuzzard> didn't we always?
[23:37:46] <Sulla> Not sure I like a "no ac" option
[23:38:11] <TheMightyBuzzard> Sulla, thus the "Needs Discussion" tag. =P
[23:38:36] <TheMightyBuzzard> really, i don't mind it at all. it's their journal and they can do what they like with it.
[23:38:41] <Sulla> True
[23:38:59] <Sulla> ACs seem pretty moderate in their posts overall
[23:39:41] <Sulla> I would laugh if we got rid of anon moderations though, I have guesses on who is probably downmodding me
[23:39:43] <Sulla> But such is debate
[23:40:17] <Sulla> Typically if I am going back and forth and they mod me down, it means they lost and must resort to trying to hide my words

[23:42:16] <TheMightyBuzzard> unfortunately i know exactly who downmods me.
[23:42:59] <TheMightyBuzzard> it's very annoying seeing the same 3-4 names doing 80% of my downmods.
[23:43:18] <TheMightyBuzzard> if i weren't so well adjusted i'd get tyrannical on their asses.
[23:47:22] <TheMightyBuzzard> aight, bout time to start cooking something if i want to eat tonight. back later.
