[22:54:16] <takyon> now that it's settled
[22:54:13] <takyon> yeah I rushed that one, and I've only just started adding orig sub links myself
[22:53:37] <takyon> evil brother...

[17:20:33] janrinok|afk is now known as janrinok
[16:32:47] <CoolHand> takyon: in Evil Brother story, I uppercased Evil Brother in title, and added original submission link, fyi..
[15:18:27] <takyon> err, 2h
[15:18:21] <takyon> no 90m on weekdays plz
[15:15:37] <CoolHand> (not to mention a couple of the current runs might get rejected)
[15:13:22] <CoolHand> yeah somebody adjusted time on my articles.. they're a lot shorter now. I now we have a lot of subs currently, but Fridays and weekends are usually slow for them, and we don't have enough for the entire weekend (especially publishing at 90 min. intervals)...
[15:11:07] <takyon> thanks n1
[15:06:52] <n1> when there are none left to attack, we will be safe
[15:04:15] <takyon> infinite attacks on digital liberties

[14:51:11] <janrinok> not a bad suggestion ;)
[14:46:24] <NetCraft> ^ 03multiple datestamp update · Issue #448 · SoylentNews/slashcode · GitHub
[14:46:24] <takyon> I'm hoping we can get this feature eventually, it would make it much easier: https://github.com
[14:45:44] <janrinok> takyon: np, but I thought I was misreading the columns
[14:45:26] <takyon> i'm looking at TISA story
[14:45:20] <takyon> it was not nearly aggressive enough so I moved several stories up ranging from 30 minutes to a cascading 2 hours
[14:44:52] <takyon> I rescheduled
[14:44:10] <LaminatorX> It looks like tha cache might've hiccuoughed for a moment there. Seems OK now though.
[14:42:51] <janrinok> thx - I was busy editing and hadn't got roung to it yet :)
[14:42:21] <LaminatorX> Jose played Emperor Shaddam IV in David Lynch's Dune film, and Cyrano in the old black & white adaptation.
[14:36:26] <janrinok> is someone rescheduling stories? I seem to be misreading release times
[14:35:09] <LaminatorX> brb
[14:35:07] <janrinok> I'd have to Google Jose Ferrer for that one to work for me
[14:34:39] * LaminatorX is actually a failed clone of Jose Ferrer.
[14:33:50] <janrinok> there can never be too many yous
[14:33:45] LaminatorX_ is now known as LaminatorX
[14:33:34] <LaminatorX_> Looks like other-me times out at 4 minutes in any case.
[14:33:08] <janrinok> I don't know - I didn't realise that it had gone either...
[14:33:05] -!- LaminatorX has quit [Ping timeout: 264 seconds]
[14:32:38] <LaminatorX_> It seems /ghost is gone. Do I have to elevate to op status and /kick zombie me?
[14:31:51] <janrinok> so it would seem
[14:30:35] <LaminatorX_> I'm having some connectivity problems here.

[14:29:52] <janrinok> what happened there?
[14:29:40] <janrinok> you are back

[14:28:31] <LaminatorX_> Am I back?

[14:23:56] <janrinok> so, she's bright but perfectly normal. That's an even better combination.
[14:23:25] <LaminatorX> Thanks. :) As for her own ambitions, she would like to perhaps be The Wasp from the 2011 Avengers cartoon, or perhaps attend Monster High.
[14:21:50] <janrinok> good move - but nevertheless she is obviously a bright kid
[14:20:15] <LaminatorX> The director is a friend of a friend, and her school-year ended just in time for her to stay up late. She understands in broad strokes that the other actors are behaving the way they are because their characters all thought her character had been killed, and they're surprised that she's alive. Further details about the plot are left opaque to her.
[14:18:46] * janrinok heard some kids talking on a bus...
[14:18:27] <cmn32480> my kids are currently dreaming of being ObiWan Kenobe. And I am surprised that you know who Peppa Pig is janrinok!
[14:16:55] <janrinok> that seems like a pretty intense play for a 5-year-old. She is obviously of higher calibre than our own 5-year-olds who dream of the role of 'Peppa Pig' or somesuch.
[14:15:05] <LaminatorX> My five year old is actually in a real tragic gut-puncher of a play full of torture, murder, totalitarianism, and abuse, but none of that is in her scene. The fact that she shows up near the end alive and happy is a surprise twist. Needless to say, we leave the intercom in the green room off while waiting for her scene.
[14:12:34] <janrinok> you love it, don't deny it
[14:12:16] <LaminatorX> I'm ready for some weekend. I'll mostly be kid shufflin with two birthday parties and a play in the mix, but it should be a good time.
[14:11:29] * cmn32480 agrees with LaminatorX
[14:10:55] * LaminatorX loves referring to himself in the third person though.
[14:10:20] * cmn32480 agrees with LaminatorX
[14:09:55] * LaminatorX finds the -gate suffix asinine. The name of the hotel was the least significant thing about Nixon's scandal.
[14:09:23] <cmn32480> heya LaminatorX
[14:09:21] <janrinok> looking forward to a good weekend?
[14:09:06] <LaminatorX> Yo!
[14:08:32] <janrinok> lol hi Lammy!
[14:08:23] <LaminatorX> Editgate: We actually edit.
[14:05:32] <cmn32480> i know.. us weird Americans
[14:05:24] <janrinok> stayed on my chair but laughing
[14:05:10] <cmn32480> and you probably even smiled.. or maybe laughed!
[14:05:10] <janrinok> perfectly - most apt
[14:04:50] <cmn32480> did it get the point across quite well janrinok?
[14:04:37] <cmn32480> so the next one will be editgate II
[14:04:30] <janrinok> cmn32480: a very descriptive but over-visual image then
[14:04:26] <cmn32480> that woudl explain it
[14:04:04] <janrinok> Yes, I think mrcoolbp coined the expression
[14:02:31] <cmn32480> raining like a cow pissing on a flat rock here all week.
[14:01:59] <cmn32480> editgate? has the american lexicon so pervaded the world that any scandal now has to end in "gate" everywhere?
[14:01:43] <n1> spent quite a bit of time outside enjoying the sun
[14:01:35] <n1> yeah, its been nice with the weather
[14:00:33] <janrinok> Not been a bad week. Weather has been OK so I've had a bit of exercise by doing the garden. Much more restful than last week's 'editgate' and we have had some very good stories over the last few days
[14:00:08] <cmn32480> damn company keeps adding to the list
[14:00:00] <cmn32480> I know the feeling.. I'm forever "catching up"
[13:59:46] <n1> been a few days of catching up with normal work after the festival, before the next one
[13:59:09] <n1> hey there cmn32480
[13:58:33] <cmn32480> hey n1. long time no talk
[13:58:15] <n1> hows things going, janrinok?
[13:57:04] <janrinok> lol
[13:57:01] <cmn32480> like it never even happenend
[13:55:42] <janrinok> it's gone now
[13:54:44] <cmn32480> oh dear... likely you are correct
[13:54:38] <janrinok> I suspect the former for now
[13:54:23] <janrinok> I'm not sure if CH has miss quoted a link, or whether he really meant to put a video about Myanmar in the OpenGL story...!
[13:52:15] <janrinok> I merged the virus detector story too
[13:51:56] <janrinok> np
[13:51:49] <janrinok> CoolHand: you here?
[13:51:49] <cmn32480> and thansk for fixing that TSA article. I didn't see the update to the story in the queue unitl I was shutting down
[13:51:40] <janrinok> can't complain at all thx
[13:51:14] <cmn32480> we are doing good janrinok. how about you and yours?
[13:50:57] <janrinok> hi cmn32480 , hope you and your family are all well!
[13:49:54] <cmn32480> but the submission really picked up this week
[13:49:16] <cmn32480> it was rather shocking to me as well
[13:47:46] <janrinok> look! Its Friday, and there are stories in the queue!
[13:47:21] <janrinok> hi n1
[13:46:41] <n1> g'day janrinok
