[00:56:00] <Runaway1956> Can someone parse this headline for me? It appears that abusing orphans is not a crime.

[00:56:07] <systemd> ^ 03Orphanage investigation finds no crimes, but abuse occurred
[00:56:35] <Runaway1956> Stop thinking of the children and think of the orphans
[00:57:51] <chromas> Perhaps they yelled at the kids a lot or made them install Windows 10 with online accounts
[00:59:15] <c0lo> Runaway1956, can you please copy-paste here the opening phrase of TFA you want to parse the title for?
[01:00:54] <Runaway1956> It's the headline I'm concerned with - the story clarifies somewhat that they were looking for murders, and found none
[01:00:59] <Runaway1956> but no crime?
[01:03:03] <FatPhil> wot chromas said. forced to use chromebooks, probably.
[01:03:57] <Runaway1956> Having a chromebook in 1970 would have been problematic

[01:15:16] <c0lo> pick yer laws on and before 1974 and have a go at crime/abuse definitions, Runaway. It may be that some sorts of "corrections" were acceptable at that times.

[01:22:02] <Runaway1956> c0lo I'm pretty sure that boning children up the ass was considered abuse way back then
[01:22:29] <Runaway1956> If fact they were committing TWO crimes - sodomy and statutory rape
[01:23:49] <c0lo> The linked says nothing of this sort.
[01:24:59] <Runaway1956> The link says that the statute of limitations applied to the crimes committed against those kids, unless a murder was committed
[01:25:44] <c0lo> Did you ask for a parsing of the title or did you ask for speculations on what that could mean?

[01:58:20] <AzumaHazuki> I dunno. I've watched him go from "grumpy old man left behind by history" to "coming within one curly redpubic hair of saying the 14 Words" to "flirting with domestic terrorism" in the space of 2 years
[01:58:41] <AzumaHazuki> this is not a sane, stable man
[02:00:50] <requerdanos> "Sane and stable" are given out pretty sparsely here in general, I must note.
[02:01:44] <AzumaHazuki> requerdanos, this guy has a long history of wishing for a civil war, disasturbating over the idea of it even. he explicitly says he's willing to "sacrifice" millions on millions of "progressives" so that his "grandkids won't be slaves to brown and black people."
[02:02:10] <AzumaHazuki> i've seen him daring federal authorities to come to his home at least twice, for the explicit purpose of wanting to shoot them
[02:02:31] <AzumaHazuki> the guy's nuttier than a shithouse rat
[02:02:51] <requerdanos> You've really, really thought about this.

[02:03:07] <AzumaHazuki> no, i've really, really been gobsmacked by the shit this lunatic insists on posting, over and over again
[02:03:39] <AzumaHazuki> he's either suicidal or in the grips of some insane narcissism convincing him he's invicible and/or above the law
[02:04:13] <requerdanos> I would think clinical narcissism would be the simpler explanation, no?
[02:04:36] <AzumaHazuki> he's too sloppy and self-destructive for that diagnosis, IMO
[02:04:43] <AzumaHazuki> sounds more like buried, repressed self-loathing
[02:05:04] <requerdanos> As you like, I suppose.
[02:06:11] <AzumaHazuki> he's said enough on there that a collection of screenshots passed to the appropriate agencies might get him that visit from the feds he seems to be salivating over, and i don't see him shutting up any time soon

[02:13:17] <Runaway1956> of course, she IS nuttier than a shithouse rat
[02:15:33] <requerdanos> As you like, I suppose.
[02:17:33] <requerdanos> Really can't find fault with this advice -> "if you don't want people suspecting you're crazy and violent, stop talking crazy and violent"
[02:22:07] <c0lo> 'Zumi, in re "I dunno. I've watched him go from ... in the space of 2 years". Are you sure the trip is irreversible? Other than words, did he do anything?
[02:22:53] <AzumaHazuki> there are some stains on the soul that do not wash out, c0lo
[02:23:14] <chromas> I thought that's what the bleach injections were for
[02:23:16] <AzumaHazuki> he hasn't, to my knowledge, done anything murderous yet, but i get the distinct impression it's inability rather than lack of will that's stopping him
[02:24:11] <requerdanos> no, the internal bleach was presidential speculation about a covid cure
[02:24:22] <AzumaHazuki> plus, now he's in full-on revanchist mode. he swallowed the GOP narrative hook line and sinker. probably some part of him wants to die in a shooting war
[02:24:52] <AzumaHazuki> and i'm perfectly fine with him dying of high-velocity lead-poisoning, but if he wants that so badly he can do it himself and not involve innocent people
[02:28:41] <FatPhil> they have to do the cleaning up. it needs to be done in the woods

[02:30:35] <c0lo> *yawn* Runaway talks shit too, nothing new.
[02:30:35] <AzumaHazuki> you inflicted this in yourself, runaway
[02:30:45] <AzumaHazuki> years and years and years of typing crazy gets you a reputation
[02:31:05] <Runaway1956> No, you're inflicting shit because you're too ignorant to understand the printed word
[02:31:06] <AzumaHazuki> you're literally twice my age and you never learned to grow up, toughen up, or shut up
[02:31:15] <AzumaHazuki> what a wasted life you've lead
[02:31:17] <Runaway1956> I'm tough enough, lol
[02:31:29] <Runaway1956> And your life? Half of it homeless?
[02:31:32] <c0lo> You two, get a room, *please*
[02:31:51] <Runaway1956> Bag lady finally gets a job, and she's gonna tell me how life is?
[02:31:53] <AzumaHazuki> 2 months is not half, thanks. and that's nothing to be ashamed of when it happens due to poverty rather than drunkenness, drugs, etc
[02:32:05] <Runaway1956> OK Baggy

[02:33:09] <c0lo> If I need to see two people pushing each other's buttons, I can go to pornhub.
[02:33:19] <Runaway1956> so, bennies and opioids are the only controlled substances you know about
[02:33:26] <chromas> no they just deleted all unverified uploads, remember?
[02:33:43] <chromas> or hid them, to keep for themselves
[02:33:45] <AzumaHazuki> there's lacosamide (Vimpat) for seizure meds, that's CV. Neurontin/Gabapentin isn't yet but Pregabalin is
[02:33:51] <c0lo> Only the "models" ones.
[02:33:58] <AzumaHazuki> both of those are also drugs of abuse, by the way
[02:34:22] <Runaway1956> You been going fishing with Buzzard?

[02:35:12] <AzumaHazuki> i've been working since 16
[02:35:21] <requerdanos> ranting about how gobsmacked you are is not, imho, productive work.
[02:35:23] <Runaway1956> key word "productive"
[02:35:25] <AzumaHazuki> speaking of, it's about time to go. just remember what i said: if you don't want to be suspected of the violent crazies, don't post violent, crazy shit on the internet where people can see it :D

[04:03:39] <Runaway1956_> After upgrading my OS, I decided to try it again, and got same message, with 3 versions of Opera - 59 packages would be uninstalled

[06:36:11] <c0lo> Snubbing deep state is easy, carny, one has to do nothing - there's no deep state. Keeping a pandemic in check and balance with the economy, on the other side... well, that's something that requires hard work, leadership and maybe a bit of ingenuity. Looks like the orange clown has none of those.

[09:40:41] <FatPhil> that might be supper tonight, these are great toasted with baked beans and boar sausage: https://scontent-hel3-1.xx.fbcdn.net
[09:41:43] <FatPhil> but that depends on lunch, we try to avoid overloading on bready things, and pizza might be on our radar this lunchtime.
[09:42:02] <FatPhil> damn, now I'm getting hungry
[09:51:15] * c0lo offers vegemite to FatPhil, to avoid the overlap with boar sausages
[09:58:37] <Bender> [SoylentNews] - Boeing Increases 787 Delivery Checks Due to Manufacturing Issue - https://sylnt.us - cracks-me-up
[09:58:53] <FatPhil> we have marmite here, no need for that cheap alternative!
[09:59:49] <FatPhil> We couldn't bring a large pot of marmite back from the UK in hand-luggage - it's a "paste". Fuck the TSA!
[10:01:55] <boru> Marmite and vegemite should be banned under the Geneva convention. I can understand.
[10:05:34] <FatPhil> weirdo!
[10:06:08] <boru> Actually, I would like to acquire more data for a theory of mine. Since you like these abominations, do you like nutella?
[10:13:36] <c0lo> nutella is good in a very thin layer under baked beans to avoid the toast getting soggy until one finishes the sausage
[10:16:40] * c0lo suggests FatPhil to drive a van filled with Marmite through the Eurotunnel next time
[10:41:29] <FatPhil> nutella only works in the 0.1% of the time when I have a sweet tooth. I've not bought a jar myself ever.
[10:43:11] <boru> Interesting. All of the people I've met who like one, dislike the other.
[10:43:30] <FatPhil> i dislike very little
[10:43:46] <FatPhil> even the stuff I grew up hating I now like.
[10:44:15] * c0lo thinks that's a wee bit of hypocrisy in liking Marmite and pretending the sweet tooth is only 0.1% time. At least Vegemite is not sweet.
[10:44:33] <FatPhil> i even prefer my mashed potato a little lumpy
[10:44:38] * boru absconds before this gets ugly.
[10:45:22] <c0lo> I don't mind lumpy mash.
[10:45:25] <FatPhil> i see no hypocrisy.
[10:45:54] <FatPhil> marmite's no less not sweet than vegemite. probably saltier.
[10:45:56] <c0lo> Marmite is sweet in comparison with Vegemite
[10:46:48] <FatPhil> ok, I'll take your word on that, I've only had vegemite once or twice
[10:47:40] <c0lo> And
[10:48:04] <c0lo> And I had Marmite once. Doing the comparison
[10:48:19] <c0lo> between the two.
[10:48:46] <FatPhil> scientific experiment, eh?
[10:49:05] <FatPhil> at the institute of vegemitology, NSW?
[10:49:26] <c0lo> Adjusting my former East European taste to AngloSaxon
[10:49:42] <boru> It's actually in the western territory, where the vegemite trees are grown.
[10:50:37] <c0lo> imo, the best thing anglos invented are the steaks.
[10:50:49] <c0lo> (then the steam engine)
[10:52:36] <FatPhil> I though vegemite was made from condensed koalabean milk - sure tastes like it!
[10:53:16] <boru> Don't be silly.
[10:53:24] <FatPhil> Not so sure about anglo fud, I think we butcher steaks.
[10:53:53] <boru> Well, the cows hardly butcher themselves.
[10:54:26] <FatPhil> Forgotten HHGTTG?
[10:55:09] <FatPhil> Roasts, however, goddamn, that's anglo fud at its best.
[10:56:04] <c0lo> As opposed to East Europe, where the only way to have beef is in stews.
[10:56:38] <boru> The one thing I'd give you lot credit for, food-related, is cider. After that, well, it's pretty grim by European standards, but typical cold, wet weather food. Much like Ireland, really.
[10:56:44] <c0lo> (not enough rain/grass to raise animals *exclusively* for meat)
[10:57:20] <boru> Beef is one thing we do well. Alas, self butchering cow technology is still decades away, at least.
[10:58:37] <c0lo> (what channel I'm in?)
[10:59:06] <FatPhil> english cider has a unique twang to it, different apples, different yeasts and different preparation methods, so not surprising really.
[10:59:47] <boru> True. Somerset have it wired down tight there, for certain.
[10:59:47] <c0lo> (ok, I'll abstain from suggesting we should teach cows a 2-party democracy as a prereq for self-butchering)
[11:01:32] <FatPhil> our local cider's not to my taste, we're mostly methode chammpenoise, which is too dry and winey for me.
[11:01:43] <FatPhil> latvian ciders are way better.
[11:02:53] <boru> A decent scrumpy's alright, but I like the style of Weston's organic stuff, for example. Goes great with bbq.
[11:03:40] <boru> Wyld Wood, or whatever they've rebranded it as.
[11:03:45] <FatPhil> not sure what happenns to the local pub's scrumpy supply when brexit finally kicks in. I sus,ect it just goes up 20% in price.
[11:04:05] <FatPhil> wyld wood's good. we no longer get it, we have sheppeys instead now.
[11:04:15] <boru> Why would that be? Are they exporting local scrumpy?
[11:04:39] <boru> Or were they, rather.
[11:25:30] <FatPhil> my sloppiness, sorry - the local pub imports scrumpy from england. We've just been told to expect tax to put everything from the UK up 20%.
[11:28:14] <boru> Figures. That's a bit shite.

[13:19:51] <AzumaHazuki> is the wayland session ready for daily use yet?
[13:20:04] <AzumaHazuki> i've been using and liking Sway a lot but there are some pain points still
[13:20:59] <requerdanos> What's sway?
[13:21:21] <requerdanos> I use xfce on X windows, behind the times I guess
[13:21:48] <chromas> I'm back on X. KDE's Wayland still doesn't have primary/middle-click paste and it wouldn't let me adjust the screen brightness. It was mostly okay though
[13:22:20] <chromas> Sway is a Wayland compositor that I guess functions like i3
[13:22:34] <requerdanos> thanks
[13:22:36] <chromas> so tiling wm for wayland smitheres
[13:23:51] <requerdanos> you use the Plasma desktop? that's always a crash factory for me, not sure why
[13:25:57] <chromas> I had issues with it while using the nouveau driver. Works mostly okay on blob driver, as long as I don't standby the pc
[13:26:16] <chromas> actually I haven't tried that on the new box
[13:26:50] <requerdanos> ah. I am using nouveau on linux-libre. maybe that explains the problem.
[13:27:46] <chromas> a few months ago nouveau would just get me some blank windows and a locked up desktop. Haven't tried recently though
[13:28:04] <chromas> oh that might've been with kde wayland. not sure
[13:28:13] <requerdanos> I've been using nouveau on my primary machine for a couple years, but with xfce which is not too demanding.

[13:32:51] <AzumaHazuki> keeps it short when you do it almost every night
[13:33:06] <requerdanos> depends on what gets updated, I am sure :)
[13:33:39] <requerdanos> The heat from the cpus of all these gentoo users might be a contributor to global warming, heh
[13:34:03] <chromas> yeah but it's a dry heat
[13:34:12] <requerdanos> well, that's true of course
[13:39:45] <AzumaHazuki> ...sod. i didn't have wayland support compiled into firefox. okay, THAT is going to take a while
[13:42:10] <chromas> Do you have enough ram for that?
[13:45:12] <AzumaHazuki> 32 GiB? I think so. is firefox, not libreoffice, blyat
[13:45:51] <chromas> yeah, 32 should be enough. 16 isn't though
[13:46:48] <chromas> I seem to recall that was an issue awhile back. One of the optimizers required the entire code to be in memory I think, so even 32-bit builds needed to be run on 64-bit pcs
[13:46:52] <AzumaHazuki> i have 24GiB as tmpfs under /var/tmp/portage

[22:07:42] <Deucalion> Happy Brexit FatPhil.... no doubt Boris will strong arm the EU into an agreement once they get of the floor laughing about stupid islanders. And happy xmas too.
[22:09:31] <Runaway1956_> https://www.youtube.com
[22:09:34] <systemd> ^ 03If Veterans Were In Horror Movies
[22:12:46] <Deucalion> Maybe next year we can get lockdowns that don't just mean all the office drones get to sit at home then go xmas shopping en masse for a week while working from home while in max lock down. I feel like the intestine in a dead man walking.
[22:13:59] <FatPhil> Got another email from the cunting bank again, telling me they can shut down my UK bank account on a whim. Despite the fact that on the phone they'd said that actually all they need is a UK address for me, not actual residency.
[22:15:41] <FatPhil> When a UK bank can no longer hold a UK citizen's pounds sterling, that have been there for 25 years, the UK's done fucked up.
[22:16:43] <Deucalion> Have to lock down but the economy Thatcher taught me, can't lock down more than a week, yes that should do it.... oh it didn't... it's OK we have vaccine... YAY... then it's OK to orgy for a week, then spunk on a biscuit for a week and last to die gets to eat it.
[22:17:44] <Deucalion> Burn all ties FatPhil
[22:18:06] <FatPhil> I think that last bit was Boris, not Thatch
[22:18:53] <FatPhil> Both bloody Oxford of course, but I think she was mixed state school, rather than Fton, during the teen years.
[22:19:10] <Deucalion> Thats ok then.
[22:20:01] <Deucalion> I'd like to study at Futon though... get some kip.
[22:20:07] <Deucalion> :D
[22:22:30] <Deucalion> I drive home from work through Eton some days and the long tail coat seniors are still there getting their programming to be good pols.
[22:25:25] <Deucalion> Hey ho, I'm sure once Boris is done telling Europe how things are going to be we'll be loafing about in the Empire days....raking it in, doin nothing. :/ not
[22:26:31] <chromas> why are you spunking on biscuits? you're supposed to use real gravy, not that manmade stuff
[22:26:51] <Deucalion> Rite of passage
[22:27:48] <Deucalion> Much like dead pigs orifices if you believe what you read
[22:28:16] <Deucalion> It's all balderdash of course
[22:28:32] <Deucalion> Or is it.....
[22:29:26] <FatPhil> Does the road sign still say 'Fton'? I picked up that trivium in the 90s, no idea if it's still true. How hard is it to fix a road sign?
[22:29:52] <chromas> it's not hard, but why spend a buck when you don't have to?
[22:30:41] <chromas> plus it's a commentary on traditional units of measure
[22:30:43] * Deucalion plays xfiles music... the truth is out there... and no-one cares what the truth is just that it does not inconvenience them.
[22:32:30] <Deucalion> FatPhil, I live fairly near, I'll go take cruise around every road into Eton and look for an eroded sign that is Fton....
[22:33:03] <Deucalion> If you do not hear from me again...
