[04:04:15] <chromas> Plastic bags are only bad thanks to environmentalists
[04:04:36] <chromas> They wanted plastic containers to break down into tiny particles that get into fish and stuff
[04:05:36] <chromas> If we just kept making normal, non-biodegradable plastics, they could just sit quietly in the dump until someone ports food sorting technology to chipped trash
[04:46:50] <Bender> [SoylentNews] - The Risk of Weak Online Banking Passwords - http://sylnt.us - don't-DO-that
[04:51:01] <Sulla> Something like 1k plastic bags equal one reusable bag in co2 production to make
[04:51:37] <Sulla> Depending on how often you go to store and how many reusable bags you buy, might not ever break even
[05:11:22] <Sulla> Thats good. Whoever built this house took a eight foot section out of a load bearing wall and never bothered supporting it
[05:11:32] <Sulla> House held up by luck
[05:20:49] <chromas> This guy almost went from a full house to a royal flush

[05:21:42] <chromas> I take disposable bags when I go on walks, so I can collect street trash
[05:22:09] <chromas> super1 Foods has the best bags. They're bigger and tougher than everyone else's
[05:40:47] <Sulla> No access to bags where I live
[05:40:52] <Sulla> Illegal
[05:43:38] <inz> I have a vast amount of reusable plastic bags, but most of the time I'm at the checkout, I suddenly have none with me.

[13:12:53] <TheMightyBuzzard> i think we both lost
[13:13:04] <TheMightyBuzzard> but i lost snacks so i lost more
[13:13:11] <cmn32480> agreed
[13:14:56] <TheMightyBuzzard> stoopid MrPlow. can't grok the fucked-upedness that's causing the hang.
[13:20:09] <TheMightyBuzzard> oh well. i gotta run and buy house parts. then do work. laters.

[13:27:35] * AndyTheAbsurd blinks several times rapidly
[13:28:07] * cmn32480 giggles
[13:28:21] <cmn32480> does this go back to the old adage:
[13:28:34] <cmn32480> Everything can be a dildo if you are brave enough
[13:29:19] <Bytram> Do I !grab or don't I?
[13:29:25] * Bytram will be nice
[13:29:34] <Bytram> cmn32480: Howz thingz? Long time no see!
[13:30:14] * cmn32480 shurgs
[13:30:17] <cmn32480> been busy
[13:30:22] <cmn32480> work is killer right now
[13:30:30] <Bytram> You? Really??? ;)
[13:30:34] <Bytram> nod nod
[13:30:43] <Bytram> I've never known you to be not busy
[13:31:24] <cmn32480> July/early August is always uglier
[13:31:32] <Bytram> Oh, right.
[13:32:10] <Bytram> Especially with people out on vacation messing up communictions channels and just having fewer people around to take up the slack.
[13:32:42] <cmn32480> that doesn't help
[13:32:56] <cmn32480> but in particular we have a project that happens every July that just eats our lunch
[13:32:57] <Bytram> #weather baltimore
[13:32:58] <MrPlow> Business and Government Historic District, North Calvert St, Baltimore, MD 21202:21230, USA - Today: Rain in the afternoon and evening. 90/71F. Humidity 72%. Precip 80%. Wind ~3mph. Thu: Partly cloudy throughout the day. 89/70F. Humidity 65%. Precip 29%. Wind ~6mph. Fri: Partly cloudy throughout the day. 86/66F. Humidity 56%. Precip 3%. Wind ~9mph.
[13:33:09] <Bytram> some big mailing IIRC?
[13:33:15] <cmn32480> with a fair chance of bullets
[13:33:20] <cmn32480> correc
[13:33:23] <cmn32480> t\
[13:33:34] <Bytram> looks like you corrected that =)
[13:34:04] <Bytram> given this is an annual thing, I'd think there might be some way to plan for this and bring on extra help or something?
[13:34:49] <cmn32480> we do... but this is one of those projects that throwing additional people at doesn't help beyond a certain point
[13:34:55] <cmn32480> like the mythical man-month
[13:34:58] <Bytram> no baby in a month
[13:35:03] <Bytram> yuppers
[13:35:18] <cmn32480> if a prject will tyake 12 months, putting 12 people on it doesn't mean it will take 1 month
[13:35:28] <Bytram> and each step in the process has already been optimized as much as possible, I assume?
[13:35:36] <cmn32480> pretty much
[13:35:47] <Bytram> waiting 5sec for something each time you do it, but do it 50k times... adds up
[13:36:11] <cmn32480> correct
[13:36:17] <Bytram> darn
