[02:22:17] <AzumaHazuki> what is a soybuck?
[02:23:14] <bacteria> it's a "meat" product made entirely out of tofu
[02:23:26] <chromas> soylent moneys
[02:24:13] <AzumaHazuki> tofu isn't meat, ugh. i like it in where appropriate but it's not meat
[02:24:27] <chromas> that's why it's got the scare quotes
[02:24:43] <AzumaHazuki> blehh, vegetarian food should be proud of what it is, not try to be what it isn't
[02:25:32] <requerdanos> tofu is great cubed, dusted with cornstarch, and fried
[02:25:40] <requerdanos> preferably in bacon fat
[02:26:02] <TheMightyBuzzard> can't be helped. too many people already know what meat tastes like and think it's delicious.
[02:27:53] <AzumaHazuki> i have a 3 day weekend coming. it'll be snowed in. perfect time for soup and stew
[02:28:13] <TheMightyBuzzard> it's like... the smell of bacon and the sight of big ole tiddies. you have to lie to yourself if you're going to swear either off to keep from killing yourself in despair.
[02:28:15] <AzumaHazuki> i've got rice, barley, beans, hominy corn, and some other pantry staples
[02:30:16] <AzumaHazuki> maybe i'll splurge and get some stew beef or something instead of just manager's special chicken bits
[02:30:24] <TheMightyBuzzard> i always keep a bag of *real* bacon bits handy for emergencies. makes most anything taste better if not good. works wonders on ramen.
[02:32:58] <AzumaHazuki> i can do without bacon. it's terrible for you anyway
[02:33:06] <AzumaHazuki> ...not compromising on breasts though >>; i love them
[02:34:12] <requerdanos> bacon is yummy, would rather not do without. I also keep the real bacon bits around.

[02:34:19] <Bender> Added quote 1015
[02:35:01] <AzumaHazuki> ...okay, time to haul ass off to the hospital in the snow. what fun, blyat...!
[02:35:06] <TheMightyBuzzard> doesn't take a large amount of bacon to make a soup of whatever kind more gooder. a tablespoon for two standard cereal/soup bowls is enough to make whatever else is in it nummy.
[02:35:24] <requerdanos> peace and good health.
[02:35:41] <AzumaHazuki> thanks...that's what i hope to help bring to the people coming there
[02:35:42] <TheMightyBuzzard> yar. make sure when you tell youngsters about it that it was up hill both ways
[02:35:49] <chromas> tablespoon? no sir! this is america, and in america we measure food by fistfuls
[02:36:08] <TheMightyBuzzard> chromas, that's for dollars
[02:36:13] <chromas> and bacon
[02:36:23] <Runaway1956__> You haven't seen my tablespoon chromas
[02:36:36] <TheMightyBuzzard> no, the official unit for bacon is the shitload
[02:36:43] <chromas> plus, most people have ten digits, which makes a fistful metric
[02:36:58] <TheMightyBuzzard> but it's cumbersome to say 1/9000th of a shitload
[02:37:13] <TheMightyBuzzard> no, that's two fistfuls

[02:43:29] -!- SoyCow8170 [SoyCow8170!~ac71792d@pwe-386-327-885-61.socal.res.rr.com] has joined #soylent
[02:43:51] <SoyCow8170> I donated $45 but I noticed it doesn't look like you will meet your goal. I hope the site won't be shut down
[02:44:47] <SoyCow8170> Soylentnews is a great website, I would hate to see it go due to a lack of funding
[02:45:20] <Runaway1956__> Thank you SoyCow8170 - I've been slacking
[02:45:55] <requerdanos> Yes, thank you for supporting the site and the community.
[02:45:59] <TheMightyBuzzard> SoyCow8170, weird. you said that while i was pulling funds from stripe to the bank.
[02:47:14] <TheMightyBuzzard> we've got a buffer. not full a year long with no income one but we can live through a short half year or two.
[02:47:34] <SoyCow8170> I hope so. It would be very sad to see this great site go
[02:48:04] <Runaway1956__> No one talks about it, but I think a lot of people are having financial difficulties this year
[02:48:42] <TheMightyBuzzard> can be downsized by sacrificing redundancy if necessary. honestly, it could run on my desktop if it had to. plus we got RS3 offering us servers.
[02:49:25] <chromas> Good idea. tmb and I can run it off both our desktops for redundancy
[02:49:33] * Runaway1956__ can't even spell redundancy
[02:49:49] <SoyCow8170> On a side note I feel like all these copyright expansion laws are conveniently being pushed now (along with many other laws soon to follow like laws and spending to 'fix' the russian hacks) because people can't physically go out and protest like they used to and politicians know that. A good analogy would be what happened WRT the hong Kong protests when Covid hit and how that helped China do what they wanted
[02:50:02] <chromas> then the only funds sn needs is donations to pay for sweet fiber-to-the-home connections >:)
[02:50:10] <TheMightyBuzzard> chromas, yeah, you host the db to save me room for my pr0n
[02:50:58] <SoyCow8170> The lockdowns are a convenient excuse to get laws that no one wants passed because we can't physically go out and protest
[02:51:00] <Runaway1956__> Out of curiosity, how far would a 4 Gig Raid go toward hosting the site?
[02:51:20] * Runaway1956__ figures less than half the database
[02:51:26] <TheMightyBuzzard> not very. i think the db alone is that big.
[02:51:29] <chromas> I'd totally do it, but I'd need to get a UPS
[02:52:08] <Bytram> SoyCow8170: we seem to be doing well-ish atm
[02:52:10] <TheMightyBuzzard> plus a 4GB raid would be on disks so ancient we couldn't plug them in to anything
[02:52:12] * Runaway1956__ remembers when a gig was fekkin' ginormous
[02:52:43] <Runaway1956__> Disks are only like 4 years old - enterprise editions
[02:52:51] <Runaway1956__> hmmmm - maybe six years old
[02:52:52] <Bytram> we had strong support for the fundraiser for the first half of the year
[02:52:57] <TheMightyBuzzard> bit more than that
[02:53:17] <TheMightyBuzzard> at least 14
[02:53:38] <Runaway1956__> wonder if I can find the receipts . . .
[02:53:55] <Bytram> unofficially, of course, but it looks like we need another $50 or so to meet our goal but...
[02:54:23] <Bytram> 1.) Goal is an estimate -- actual expenses may vary
[02:54:33] * TheMightyBuzzard just had to sacrifice his dvd burner to the sata/m.2 gods
[02:55:03] * TheMightyBuzzard turns chromas upside down and shakes him for wallet fodder
[02:55:23] <chromas> what percentage does stripe take?
[02:55:29] <Bytram> 2.) We ran at a deficit for a while, so we have a ways to go until we recoup the original investment by our founders that allowed us to start the site
[02:57:11] * Bytram waves hands around, another 3 grand -- big guess -- should get us caught up.
[02:57:25] <TheMightyBuzzard> some formula. works out to a buck seventy-five on a fifty dollar payment or 88 cents on a twenty dollar one.
[02:58:05] <requerdanos> Maybe something like 30 cents plus 3 percent?
[02:58:06] <Bytram> chromas: a fixed amount of every transaction, plus a percentage, a bit extra when currency conversion is involved
[02:58:14] <TheMightyBuzzard> cheaper than paypal though
[02:58:46] <TheMightyBuzzard> huh, no, it WAS cheaper than paypal, now it's exactly the same.
[02:59:19] <Runaway1956__> collusion?
[02:59:47] <TheMightyBuzzard> competition. paypal lowered their fees.
[03:00:04] <Runaway1956__> ahhhh, I guess that's good
[03:00:06] <chromas> Ah, I just wanted an exact amount to appear in the thing
[03:01:13] <TheMightyBuzzard> 2.9% + $0.30.
[03:03:06] <TheMightyBuzzard> aight, nicotine then reading in bed for me. yall have a merry ho-ho.
[03:03:58] <Bytram> sounds like a plan -- I'm pretty tired, too.

[20:48:51] <chromas> Dolphins would if they could
[20:55:59] <FatPhil> my cousin billy?
[20:57:00] <FatPhil> one question is whether platypi (fuck you!), platypodes (also, fuck you), are even mammals.
[20:57:43] <FatPhil> they ooze stuff that some (such as their offspring) like licking, but I don't think that makes you a mammal
[20:57:49] <requerdanos> Like lions and dolphins, they don't play in the snow. Therefore mammals.
[20:59:38] <FatPhil> Are nuts nuts?
[20:59:43] <FatPhil> Are berries berries?
[21:00:08] <FatPhil> If you cannot answer these questions, then you should *ignore biologists*
[21:00:13] <requerdanos> well, squirrels bury nuts.
[21:00:55] <FatPhil> nah - legumes, totally different
[21:02:02] <FatPhil> well, they probably do bury nuts, but we humans wouldn't recognise them as nuts, but that's my point.
[21:02:21] <requerdanos> I don't think we'd mistake them for berries.
[21:02:39] <FatPhil> is a strawberry a berry?
[21:02:57] <FatPhil> you have mistaken a lot of "not berry"s for berries
[21:03:16] <chromas> Maybe they shouldn't call them berries then
[21:03:27] <requerdanos> perhaps strawfruit
[21:03:34] <chromas> peanutberries
[21:04:23] <FatPhil> no - maybe we should tell biologist to fuck the fuck fucking off
[21:04:32] <FatPhil> Our language, don't try to fuck it up.
[21:04:56] <chromas> so strawberries aren't berries, peanuts aren't nuts and begging the question isn't actually begging. hmmm
[21:05:14] <FatPhil> not the way you do it
[21:05:39] <chromas> please, sir, can I have some more?
[21:05:54] <requerdanos> I don't think biologists are responsible for that last one
[21:06:06] <chromas> They are now
[21:06:25] <FatPhil> DON'T START ME ON TYPOGRAPHY!
[21:06:36] <chromas> okay, kerning sanders
[21:06:44] <FatPhil> I have no idea where that came from
[21:06:49] <FatPhil> deep deep deep psyche

[21:40:10] -!- AzumaHazuki [AzumaHazuki!~hazuki@the.end.of.time] has joined #soylent
[21:40:49] <AzumaHazuki> nothing says christmas like two back to back shifts 'cause half the pharmacy called out @_@ ye flipping gods
[21:42:48] <Bytram> wb! go to bed!
[21:43:32] <AzumaHazuki> i have to be up in an hour. no work till monday night thank fuck but my sleep schedule's shot
[21:44:09] * AzumaHazuki may just smack the alarm clock and to hell with it, sleep as she needs to
[21:44:13] <FatPhil> well, season's greetings Azuma
[21:44:46] <FatPhil> I managed to get free booze in the pub tonight because my jumper has a huge hole in the elbow.
[21:44:58] <FatPhil> that is a civilised part of the world.
[21:45:43] <AzumaHazuki> here in the uncivilized world i just did 16 hours, less a couple of half hour breaks, hauling ass all over that hospital with carts and carts of meds
[21:46:08] <Bender> [SoylentNews] - Happy Holidays! And... an Introduction and an Update [Updated] - https://sylnt.us
[21:46:28] <AzumaHazuki> and of course it wouldn't be 2020 if the pneumatic tube station AND the med robot didn't BOTH decide to fall over and fart a bunch
[21:48:26] <Bytram> AzumaHazuki: are there not laws restricting how much you can be required to work? min time between shifts? Or thanks to it being health care, you're exemot?
[21:48:44] <Bytram> that said, ignore me and get some rest!
[21:49:02] <AzumaHazuki> oh, i asked for this, new employees aren't usually allowed to do overtime or holidays because hurr hurr fuck paying newbies time and a half
[21:49:31] <AzumaHazuki> but like half the frickin' staff called off, so the boss was probably happy just to have someone competent and willing
[21:50:01] <Bytram> don't you just hate it when you get what you asked for, and then find you didn't want it quite like that?
[21:50:22] <AzumaHazuki> actually, i did want it like this
[21:50:35] <AzumaHazuki> ..except for the tube and the boxpicker barfing of course
[21:50:48] <Bytram> yeah, I hear ya,
[21:51:16] <Bytram> get some rest; people are depending on you for being alert enough in the upcoming shift.
[21:51:21] <AzumaHazuki> this shows team spirit, good work ethic, all that manager bullshit buzzword bingo
[21:51:36] <Bytram> if need be, I can devoice you ;^)
[21:51:49] <Bytram> yes, it does.
[21:51:55] <Bytram> NOW GO SLEEP!
[21:52:09] <AzumaHazuki> lol. i'm going to be up for a little while longer. need to decompress with some fluffy snuggly yuri manga
[21:52:25] <Bytram> that's better
[21:52:30] <Bytram> go away!
[21:52:33] <Bytram> =)
