[04:46:38] <AzumaHazuki> seeing pictures of the NYC subway system actually physically hurts. i spent so much time there. is there a word for this? not "nostalgia," that's not quite right
[05:06:41] <TheMightyBuzzard> phantom limb syndrome. like when your leg gets all gangrenous and they have to amputate it before it drags you down into death with it. but you still feel like it's there.
[05:16:11] <AzumaHazuki> odd. not sure i'd call it that either, but now you mention it...leaving that place was sudden and traumatic, so maybe there's a similarity to limb avulsion there
[05:49:27] <TheMightyBuzzard> been there, rode it, felt like cattle queueing up for the ride to the slaughterhouse. not being able to realistically drive alone would be enough to keep me from ever wanting to live in nyc.
[05:50:17] <TheMightyBuzzard> oh, finally found something that convinced me to wear a mask.
[05:51:12] <TheMightyBuzzard> painting exposed air duct without one leads to white nose hair and days of white boogers.
[05:52:47] <TheMightyBuzzard> thankfully my spiderman mask should be in shortly. and yes, i shall absolutely be wearing it whenever it's too much bother to get back in the car and go somewhere else.
[05:53:37] <TheMightyBuzzard> no, not a scrubs mask with spiderman on it. full head spandex with grilled eye doodads.

[06:53:29] <c0lo> Oh, let's see TMB's position of having an elite decide what could or could not be expressed on Facebook in particular or Social Media in general.
[06:54:30] <c0lo> s/of h/on h/
[06:55:12] <c0lo> right SedBot dead
[07:17:50] <TheMightyBuzzard> c0lo, i don't want one position, i want all of the positions
[07:24:38] <TheMightyBuzzard> my base position's the same as ever. you shouldn't censor speech that's legal in your country of origin. for SN i make the exception for spam since our existence is about, well, "conversation" is a nice word for it, and spam is noise not signal in that context.
[07:25:45] <TheMightyBuzzard> if we were a cooking forum i'd likely have a much stricter set of criteria
[07:28:08] <TheMightyBuzzard> but fb is getting its decisions slapped down by the board it created and hand picked. which interests me.
[07:29:24] -!- SedBot [SedBot!~SedBot@pid1] has joined #soylent
[07:29:32] <TheMightyBuzzard> #smake chromas
[07:29:32] * MrPlow smakes chromas upside the head with the 0xF0RD dictionary
[07:31:49] <TheMightyBuzzard> really though, i don't see a point in having a board if they're going to five at a time an ever growing queue of 150K posts
[07:33:49] <chromas> oi, how would I do a cronjerb for the bot?
[07:33:57] <chromas> Does it need to check for a pid file or something?
[07:34:34] <TheMightyBuzzard> sudo over to sylnt and check out its crontab and what's being pointed to. mine's simpler but i don't want you looking at my porn
[07:35:13] <TheMightyBuzzard> yeah, you can basically get away with a ps and a wc -l to check if the process is running for sedbot
[07:35:53] <chromas> there's a bunch o' processes
[07:36:02] <chromas> sounds like the perfect candidate for systemd to handle :D
[07:36:08] <chromas> put it into a cgroup
[07:36:26] <TheMightyBuzzard> ps -AF | grep [s]edbot | wc -l
[07:37:21] <TheMightyBuzzard> == 0, restart the bot. > 0, exit
[07:37:51] <TheMightyBuzzard> < 0, fork until the server crashes
[07:38:46] <chromas> I could probably get away without the cronjob though because I don't recall it ever dying on its own; just when my box herps a derp
[07:38:54] <chromas> and we all know sn servers never do that
[07:39:24] <TheMightyBuzzard> put all the logic in a script called sedbot.cron in ~sylnt/bin and call that script from sylnt's crontab if you want it to be an official bot
[07:39:40] <TheMightyBuzzard> ya, it's handy for restarts though
[07:40:14] <chromas> You should just add sedbotting to MrPlow :)
[07:41:29] <TheMightyBuzzard> MrPlow needs a rewrite. or rather he needs to be using libs that don't require old versions of openssl
[07:42:04] <TheMightyBuzzard> he can't currently be moved to al because of that.
[07:42:44] <TheMightyBuzzard> #yt call me al
[07:42:45] <MrPlow> https://www.youtube.com -- Paul Simon - You Can Call Me Al (Official Video)
[07:42:50] <chromas> I guess I can't call you Al
[07:43:10] <TheMightyBuzzard> i lurve that video
[07:44:08] <TheMightyBuzzard> i pity the fool who grew up without a tv station that played almost entirely music videos.
[07:44:49] <chromas> they're still around, but you have to buy cable or satellite tv, which nobody does anymore
[07:45:29] <TheMightyBuzzard> the youtubes ain't the same. you don't get to hear random crap that you never heard of but is awesome.
[07:45:57] <chromas> just leave on autoplay
[07:46:20] <TheMightyBuzzard> hell no. i got autoplay turned off. first thing i do when i open yt on a new browser.
[07:46:34] <TheMightyBuzzard> their algorithm sucks all of the balls
[07:46:39] <TheMightyBuzzard> all of them
[07:46:44] <chromas> same here, but it would give you the authentic tv experience
[07:47:11] -!- aristarchus has quit []
[07:47:28] <TheMightyBuzzard> ya but it'd be like switching randomly between old mtv, bet, vh1, cmt, and mongolian throat singing
[07:47:47] <chromas> yes
[07:48:11] <TheMightyBuzzard> oh and cat videos without music at all
[07:48:23] <chromas> I remember when they spawned M2 so they'd have a place to play music videos again
[07:48:23] <TheMightyBuzzard> and chemistry that goes boom videos
[07:48:42] <chromas> but then that became crap, so they came out with mtvx and mtv jams, and several others
[07:49:07] <chromas> and there used to be a whole bunch of Discovery Channels
[07:49:12] * chromas puts on the memberberries
[07:49:25] <TheMightyBuzzard> i don't. i quit watching when they started getting fat cash for beavis and butthead and were just starting to play something other than music.
[07:50:04] <chromas> I heard they were rebooting that yet again, but dunno what happened to it
[07:50:42] <chromas> Did you eat midnight coffee again?
[07:50:47] <TheMightyBuzzard> it tanked cause nobody watched it last time. pandered to whiny bitches and the whiny bitches thought it was too mean.
[07:50:53] <TheMightyBuzzard> fuck yes
[07:51:27] * TheMightyBuzzard is occasionally bloody stupid when it comes to caffeine
[07:52:45] <TheMightyBuzzard> i mean, seriously, if they're not playing frog baseball and beavis isn't a pyromaniac, it's not beavis and butthead
[07:53:15] <AzumaHazuki> https://i.imgur.com magical girl shows are getting freaking dark...
[07:53:49] <TheMightyBuzzard> noice! i approve
[07:54:49] <TheMightyBuzzard> one of these days ima make me a magnesium buster sword
[07:56:02] <chromas> With materia sockets?
[07:56:40] <TheMightyBuzzard> but of course. the materia being colored acrylic.
[07:57:11] <AzumaHazuki> you need to have an INT score north of the single digits to do anything useful with magic. ...well, except white magic, which needs WIS, and you're still boned there :/
[07:57:54] <chromas> ints-only? no reals?
[07:57:56] <TheMightyBuzzard> we're doing a redneck stained glass window similar at the church sooner or later. colored acrylic and jb weld. should look quite legit at a way lower cost.
[07:58:44] <chromas> What's the stained glass going to be? A llama?
[07:58:47] <TheMightyBuzzard> int ftw. "fireball centered on the party" -- me most gaming sessions while playing my wizard
[07:59:24] <TheMightyBuzzard> not sure yet. something very silly though.
[07:59:34] <AzumaHazuki> ...you know despite the symbolism of the labrys or doubleheaded axe i think i'd still prefer a sword as my magical girl weapon of choice
[07:59:54] <AzumaHazuki> too heavy and too slow, is an axe. leave that to the side character with the muscles
[07:59:58] <chromas> A llama getting its ass whiped by the WinAMP logo
[08:00:02] <chromas> or a goatse
[08:00:34] <TheMightyBuzzard> hrm... spear'd work good too. very effective against most things, including cavalry.
[08:01:37] <TheMightyBuzzard> long blade, crossbar, dull point on the base for planting against cavalry.
[08:01:44] <TheMightyBuzzard> boar spear basically
[08:04:07] <TheMightyBuzzard> i'm a ninjato guy myself. or cutlass. i'm completely bi on the whole pirates vs. ninjas thing
[08:05:15] <TheMightyBuzzard> longsword or katana (the lighter the blade curve the better) would be second choice.
[08:08:24] <TheMightyBuzzard> really though, most anime weapons would be completely unusable. if it's not something i could swing for half an hour back in 1066, i don want it.
[08:09:28] <TheMightyBuzzard> real battleaxes were among the things you could swing that long btw. they didn't have huge conan heads on them. they were thin and pretty light.
