[00:14:09] <BadCoderFinger> Hi guys
[00:14:26] <juggs> hi BadCoderFinger - hows things?
[00:14:27] <ciri> yeah, yeah hi HI juggs
[00:14:55] <JamesNZ> Shut up ciri.
[00:16:42] <BadCoderFinger> Hey juggs! Broke my xserver, but fixed it.
[00:16:53] <BadCoderFinger> I thought those days were behind me, heh.
[00:18:14] <juggs> ya, I was just trying to remember the last time I had to mess with that. Even nvidia driver updates are seamless these days. Guess that is a distro thing though.
[00:18:44] <juggs> I meant kernel updates... the update rebuilds the nvidia stuff as required automagically.
[00:21:03] <BadCoderFinger> Yeah, dkms solved a few problems. Brought a few, but still solved some.
[00:26:04] <BadCoderFinger> Holy crap! I know this isn't Soylent's usual tech news, but this was going on in the 70s: http://www.revealnews.org

[00:32:21] <chromas> "Ashe said that the Witnesses keep their child sexual abuse reports in a Microsoft SharePoint database but that it would take years to extract the information because it was mixed up with millions of other documents."
[00:33:24] <BadCoderFinger> That is hilarously stupid.
[00:35:47] <BadCoderFinger> That was not the primary reason I left that religion, but it was a factor.
[00:36:24] <BadCoderFinger> Mostly it was research into how it started. Charles Taze Russell was just as batshit as Joseph Smith.

[00:51:42] <paulej72> NCommander: quick question, was there a reson we used our own installs of Ubuntu instad of Linode’s
[00:52:06] <NCommander> paulej72, we didn't, we used Linode's, but swapped out the kernel to get AppArmor
[00:52:21] <paulej72> ok that is what I was wondering
[00:52:42] <NCommander> paulej72, I didn't feel comfortable using Apache 1.3 without SOMETHING protecting our hide
[00:52:45] <paulej72> looking at rebuilding hydrogen soon
[00:52:59] <juggs> do linode disable apparmor in their builds?
[00:53:04] <NCommander> Yeah
[00:53:18] <NCommander> they use a generic "every distro" kernel, so its missing some stuff
[00:53:32] <paulej72> so is it easy to switch to distro kernel

[00:54:36] <juggs> ah ok. I'm used to running straight distros, not having apparmor available on an ubuntu or derivative sounded odd. I quite like it once I got the hang of profiling stuff.

[02:23:36] <SirFinkus> no, the shit that goes on the outside of hardcover books

[02:27:56] <n1> i object to the idea that i spend $$$ on a phone, which by its nature is a portable device
[02:28:16] <n1> and the first thing i have to do is buy an accessory to protect it from its intended use
[02:31:03] <n1> i am not aware of any other product/device where that is the expectation, you have to buy an accessory straight away or risk damaging/breaking it
[02:32:04] <chromas> but it's soo thiiin!
[02:32:21] <n1> yeah, look how thin and sleek it is, when you take it out the box
[02:32:33] <n1> then you put the case and screen protector on it
[02:32:37] <n1> welcome back to 2004
[02:32:56] <mythterj> I've run my cell phones naked for years.
[02:33:06] <chromas> escept the 2004 model had a bigger battery
[02:33:11] * SpallsHurgenson perks up "Naked?"
[02:33:12] <n1> heh
[02:33:31] <n1> i dont have a case for mine, mainly because they dont make one
[02:33:50] <chromas> what? somebody's missing out on a sales opportunity
[02:33:52] <n1> i feel the need to protect it, as i cant replace it easily
[02:34:00] <n1> it's a galaxy s relay
[02:34:05] <chromas> duc[k,t] tape
[02:34:05] <n1> so it has a slide out qwerty
[02:34:21] <n1> the cases you can buy for it, make it so you can use the slide out keyboard
[02:34:23] <SirFinkus> the thing I don't understand is screen protectors
[02:34:32] <n1> which is the reason i had to import the fucking thing from the USA
[02:34:45] <n1> because europe apparently has 0 demand for android phones with physical keyboards
[02:34:45] * SpallsHurgenson usesa Motorola DynaTAC 8000x. It doesn't need protecting from the world; the world needs protecting from it :)
[02:34:53] <SirFinkus> that gorilla glass stuff is pretty tough, anything that will scratch that will go right through a screen protector
[02:34:58] <chromas> SirFinkus: because when you have a sheet of hard glass, you want to protect it from not getting scratched by covering it with soft plastic
[02:35:20] <n1> thats if you have a phoen with gorilla glass, im pretty sure the s relay doesnt
[02:35:32] <n1> and i know my old galaxy y pro has so many scratches on the screen
[02:35:37] <SirFinkus> well, people put them on smartphones
[02:35:39] <n1> from rubbing against my keys and such
[02:35:47] <chromas> plain glass is still harder to scratch than plastic screen covers
[02:35:51] <SirFinkus> high end ones with the fancy screens
[02:36:21] <chromas> keys shouldn't scratch your display anyhow, except the coatings on it
[02:36:29] <mythterj> But plastic screen covers can be replaced cheeply. For the record, I don't use those either.
[02:36:50] <n1> ive had the same screen protector for almost a year now i think
[02:36:58] <n1> and it looks like the screen on my previous phone
[02:37:03] <n1> but i dont feel the need to change it
[02:37:05] <SirFinkus> but anything that would have scratched the screen would go right through the cover and into the glass anyway
[02:37:07] <chromas> You can get some glass ones too
[02:37:36] <n1> it's more scuffs and stuff than real scratches
[02:37:41] <SpallsHurgenson> or you could just treat your property with some care :)
[02:37:45] <n1> but it does distort the screen and you cant lose them
[02:37:54] <n1> i just dont have enough pockets man!
[02:38:12] <n1> and it's not like i work in an office either
[02:38:29] <mythterj> SirF: no, a pocket full of keys and coins and jacknives will make fine scratches on class, and also plastic, but won't go thru the plastic.
[02:38:42] <SirFinkus> I have at least 8 pockets at all times, unless I'm naked, then I only have one
[02:38:46] <n1> i do try and remember to take it out of my pocket when crawling around on the floor running cables and such

[02:39:39] <n1> although your phone wont thank you for it
[02:40:04] <SirFinkus> I have one scratch on my phone, and I abused it to fuck

[02:56:17] <SirFinkus> it works though, so few complaints
[02:56:45] <Ethanol-fueled> Epis are pretty reliable and with tweeking can play super-good.
[02:56:51] <Ethanol-fueled> my first acoustic was one.
[02:57:05] <SirFinkus> I have an electric, my teacher says it plays pretty well
[02:57:13] <SirFinkus> and I'd agree
[02:57:17] <Ethanol-fueled> which model
[02:57:19] <Ethanol-fueled> ?
[02:57:27] <SpallsHurgenson> <whew> I think the danger is past
[02:57:29] <SirFinkus> Les Paul Jr
[02:57:36] <SirFinkus> literally the cheapest one
[02:58:33] <Ethanol-fueled> still not bad.
[02:58:59] <SirFinkus> works for me, only been playing for a few months, I'll get something more pricey once I'm better
[02:59:04] <n1> les paul are nice to play, as long as you dont have to sit down
[02:59:29] <SirFinkus> I haven't played a proper gibson one
[02:59:35] <Ethanol-fueled> n1, are you talking a REAL les paul? As in, you have to be a bodybuilder to stand playing it for more than 2 songs?
[02:59:39] <SirFinkus> I probably won't, since they seem overpriced
[02:59:39] <n1> yeah
[02:59:43] <n1> i have a standard
[02:59:52] <Ethanol-fueled> Nice.
[03:00:02] <SirFinkus> they sure are pretty though
[03:00:22] <n1> its a nice guitar, way too good for me really
[03:00:35] <n1> i'm much happier playing my $300 ibanez bass lol
[03:00:41] <Ethanol-fueled> Ibanez rocks.
[03:00:53] <Ethanol-fueled> they make cheap quality shit that's fun to play
[03:01:06] <n1> my bass is my favorite, probably helps it was the first one too
[03:01:16] <SirFinkus> I want one like Matt Pike has
[03:01:17] <Ethanol-fueled> my first electric was a low-end Jackson Rhoads.
[03:01:20] <n1> i have an acoustic im scared to play because it was so damn expensive and feels so fragile
[03:01:33] <n1> especially comparing it to the expensive gibson which feels heavy and tough
[03:01:37] <Ethanol-fueled> n1, what model?

[03:02:08] <Ethanol-fueled> Fuck, martin. that's some serious shit. Even the low-end ones
[03:02:48] <n1> i got all both guitars in the US so i paid $ instead of £ which is why i got better ones in the end, because they were the cost of the low end ones over here
[03:03:30] <n1> it feels so nice to play, but i dont want to hurt it...
[03:04:09] <Ethanol-fueled> n1, let me play with it then.
[03:04:21] <n1> a friend started playing guitar recently, got a cheapish fender acoustic and there was no comparison
[03:05:13] <n1> the guitars are the only 'things' i have that have any sentimental value
[03:05:19] <SirFinkus> I was thinking of picking up one of the cheaper shechter 7 strings
[03:05:32] <Ethanol-fueled> Finkus, 7-strings are for wiggers.
[03:05:56] <Ethanol-fueled> do you also own basketball shorts and jerseys, and thick gold chains?
[03:06:00] <SirFinkus> lol
[03:06:00] <ciri> HAHAHAHA

[03:06:58] <n1> i have been wanting a 5 string bass for a decade
[03:07:17] <Ethanol-fueled> Finkus, if you want more strings, go Warr http://static1.squarespace.com
[03:07:48] <n1> now that looks so much not fun to play
[03:07:49] <Ethanol-fueled> Go Stick http://www.virginmedia.com
[03:07:52] <Ethanol-fueled> Or go home!
[03:07:53] <SirFinkus> anything beyond 7 seems excessive
[03:08:06] <Ethanol-fueled> anything beyong 6 for guitar of 4 for bass is excessive.
[03:08:18] <Ethanol-fueled> Might as well buy a fucking harp.
[03:08:57] <SirFinkus> there's a rather large difference between 1 extra string, and however many a harp has
[03:08:57] <n1> too many strings!
[03:09:44] <n1> there is something in 12 string guitars
[03:10:00] <paulej72> 8 strings is the new black
[03:10:03] <SirFinkus> well, the 12 strings are different
[03:10:09] <Ethanol-fueled> 12-strings (or 8 or 12-string basses) are the only exception to that rule.
[03:10:21] <Ethanol-fueled> Jeff Ament played a 12-string bass on "Jeremy"
[03:10:37] <Ethanol-fueled> 12-string guitars are badass.
[03:11:05] <Ethanol-fueled> pauley, the original warr guitar was an 8-stringer.
[03:11:21] <Ethanol-fueled> with two stings in the lower register
[03:11:50] <paulej72> lets see, a human has 4 fingers on their left hand, so it would be hard to play 12 stings at once

[03:13:33] <Ethanol-fueled> hahah, it explains a lot.
[03:13:44] <Ethanol-fueled> Decent airport, though.
[03:13:52] <Subsentient> yeh
[03:14:06] <Ethanol-fueled> phoenix hell is amplified by the fact that most of phoenix is concrete.
[03:14:36] <Subsentient> here, we have 'snowbirds', who are people who come down from colder states during the winter to take a vacation.
[03:16:07] <Subsentient> Ethanol-fueled: I'm in a city within a short drive of Phoenix called Mesa.
[03:16:13] <Subsentient> Less concrete,
[03:17:45] <Ethanol-fueled> pauley, to answer your comment above, 12-strings are played in groups of a less number.
[03:18:18] <Ethanol-fueled> for example, a 12-string guitar is six courses of strings. each course is a closely spaced pair.
[03:18:33] <Ethanol-fueled> teh 12-string bass is a similar case.

[03:29:25] <Ethanol-fueled> evertune is bullshit. There is serious value to maintaining your own instrument
[03:29:34] <Ethanol-fueled> as well as occasionally playing out of tune.
[03:29:49] <SirFinkus> I also saw a video of someone cutting 5 strings and having the 6th remain in tune still
[03:29:55] <Ethanol-fueled> It strikes me as snake oil, just as the Buzz Feiten tuning system did a decade ago.
[03:30:02] <SirFinkus> sure, but I want control over it

[16:43:01] <TheMightyBuzzard> paulej72, can do up a quick fix that just doesn't add the tid at all or i can spend more time on in and maybe have time to find the bug, maybe not.
[16:43:48] <TheMightyBuzzard> bear in mind the tid is ignored on incoming links as far as i can find so it doesn't break any functionality
[16:43:55] <Bytram> TheMightyBuzzard: question: what benefit is there in having the 'tid' in the link? It seems to work without it?
[16:44:10] <Bytram> ninja'd
[16:44:13] <TheMightyBuzzard> ninja'd
[16:46:27] <TheMightyBuzzard> slashizeLinks is supposed to add the &tid=N on to the end of a link. it hoses when &tid=N is already on the link.
[16:47:52] <Bytram> I'm just guessing, but that would be useful once we get nexuses working, but for the time being doesn't do anything for us? OTOH, once we DO have nexuses working, it would be good that pre-existing links in stories still worked. right?

[16:54:06] -!- Gravis has quit [Client Quit]
[16:54:30] <n1> you know its good when it comes in a medicine bottle
[16:55:28] <Bytram> interesting hypothesis
[16:55:53] <n1> not sold here normally
[16:55:57] <n1> but i have my sources
[16:57:21] <n1> this has been the problem with going around the world, finding those things that arn't available locally but become must haves
[16:57:43] <Bytram> nod nod
[16:58:33] <TheMightyBuzzard> paulej72, going to just skip slashizing links for now. i can come back and fix the _link_to_slashlink sub later when i have time.
[16:58:40] * Bytram recalls being in Austria in the late 1990's and noticing a packet of artifical sweetner contained cyclomates which had been banned in the USA something like 20 years earlier for risk of (IIRC) cancer.
[17:02:00] <n1> a real risk of cancer, or the sugar/sweetener industry creating some kind of 'independent research' and lobbying the gov with it
[17:02:56] <Bytram> i dunno. I was quite young at the time, but there was quite a brouhaha about it in the news... and cyclomates were banned.
[17:03:20] <Bytram> it wasn't until quite a while later that other artificial sweetners hit the market.
[17:03:54] <TheMightyBuzzard> paulej72, pull request in
[17:04:00] <n1> Cyclamate is approved as a sweetener in over 55 countries.
[17:04:00] <n1> In the late 1960s cyclamate was banned in the United Kingdom but was approved after being re-evaluated by the European Union in 1996.
[17:04:10] <n1> still banned in the USA though
[17:04:15] <TheMightyBuzzard> Bytram, feel free to poke dev with a stick and see if you can get a bug out of the current changes.
[17:04:17] <Bytram> interesting!
[17:04:51] <TheMightyBuzzard> bug was only... well you know where it was.
[17:04:52] <Bytram> TheMightyBuzzard: I'm actually working on a story atm on prod which has a SN story link... have any changes been made there I should watch for?
[17:05:00] <TheMightyBuzzard> no
[17:05:16] <TheMightyBuzzard> just make sure to nuke everything after the sid for now.
[17:05:37] <Bytram> k. so make the link look right in the edit window (without the tid) and then save without preview... right?
[17:05:38] <TheMightyBuzzard> like when we was troubleshooting it
[17:05:55] <TheMightyBuzzard> yep, or preview and remove the troublesome bit again
[17:06:19] <Bytram> IOW, preview inserts a bad 'tid'
[17:06:44] <TheMightyBuzzard> which is okay if you remember to remove it again

[18:17:39] <Bytram> that's about the height of a 4-storey building!
[18:31:50] <n1> sounds dangerous
[18:56:46] <dx3bydt3_> Bytram, are you in Nova Scotia, or just a fan of our tides?
[18:57:12] <Bender> [SoylentNews] - Kaspersky Group Believes it is Exposing NSA Cyber-Espionage Attempts - http://sylnt.us - lack-of-hard-evidence
[18:57:12] <Bytram> dx3bydt3: was the result of a thought experiment...
[18:58:13] <Bytram> I made a connection between frozen sea ice and tides and it hit me I'd never before thought about how LOUD it would be to have the sea ice flex/break as a result of changing tidese
[18:58:35] <Bytram> then I, naturally, thought of the Bay of Fundy and its tremendous tides
[18:59:18] <Bytram> couldn't help but try and imagine sheets of ice being hit with 40-foot tides
[18:59:31] <dx3bydt3_> It certainly would be loud if it was well frozen in large sheets.
[18:59:39] <Bytram> nod nod
[18:59:56] <dx3bydt3_> I don't live by Fundy myself, but the river nearby makes some tremendous cracks some nights.
[19:00:16] <Bytram> I suspect that it would be rare for that to happen to any great extent given how the tides would be forcing a constant change (lol) on the surface
[19:00:18] -!- mythterj has quit [Quit: leaving]
[19:00:38] * Bytram has been on lakes when they would crack on a cold day.
[19:01:20] <Bytram> I suppose as additional ice would form under the surface, that would change the bouancy distribution and cause a rise in some parts that would, eventually, cause the ice to crack.
[19:01:22] <dx3bydt3_> The sea ice along the coast tends to be in chunks, in part due to temperatures/salinity and in part due to the motion.
[19:01:39] <Bytram> I've seen the same here down in the states.
[19:02:17] <Bytram> but, there are bays where the edges would freeze up in sheets, so I just got to thinking of what would happen in an extreme case
[19:02:42] <Bytram> if nothing else, I'd suspect that the ice flows would make quite a noise as they'd grind past eeach other
[19:02:48] <Bytram> s/flows/floes/
[19:02:48] <sedctl> <Bytram> if nothing else, I'd suspect that the ice floes would make quite a noise as they'd grind past eeach other
[19:03:38] <dx3bydt3_> I grew up near a freshwater lake ~6x12km in size, and that could make some impressive noise.
[19:04:25] <Bytram> I bet!
[19:04:49] <Bytram> never know when things will get to the point to suddenly release the built-up pressure/tension
[19:05:15] <Bytram> even something as simple as additional inflow or drainage could cause it to 'pop'
[19:06:25] <Bytram> dx3bydt3: btw, my maths are a bit rusty... your nick... what does that represent?
[19:07:58] <dx3bydt3_> it is the formula for jerk
[19:08:27] <dx3bydt3_> (rate of change of acceleration)
[19:08:29] <Bytram> very rapid acceleration?
[19:08:49] <Bytram> huh! Not too bad a guess... thanks!
[19:09:41] <Bytram> ah! now I remember... dx/dt == speed; dx2/dt2 == acceleration; dx3/dt3 == rate of change of acceleration
[19:09:48] <Bytram> thanks for the refresher!

[19:18:49] <janrinok> anyhow - other than that - hows things been with you?
[19:18:56] <janrinok> where?
[19:19:02] <Bytram> any SN link that has a 'tid' in it gets mangled after preview.
[19:19:06] <janrinok> I usually blame my typing

[20:01:33] <JamesNZ> ciri is right for once :D
[20:01:49] * Bytram has siri silenced
[20:01:50] <paulej72> move west and you will gain some hours. It is only 15:00 here
[20:02:12] <janrinok> JamesNZ: well said - you can't hear me applauding :)
[20:02:51] <JamesNZ> :)
[20:03:23] * Bytram goes to fetch food

[20:30:43] -!- janrinok has quit [Quit: bye guys]
[20:41:42] <mechanicjay> trying to figure out broadband provider for new house -- what a pain.
[20:42:11] <mechanicjay> its like super cheap slow DSL, or super overpriced but speed comcast.
[20:47:11] <Bytram> how far are you from the telco central office?
[20:47:11] <ciri> how how brown cow
[20:47:16] <TheMightyBuzzard> bout to have to figure that out myself but i think it's a choice between 50 or 70Mbit and like $10-15 difference
[20:47:18] <Bytram> mechanicjay: ^^^
[20:49:26] <mechanicjay> Bytram: don't know, but the best DSL speed I can get it 3Mb. Verizon/Frontier says that niether of them service this location w/ FIOS, which is not true.
[20:49:58] <Bytram> when it is easier to 'say' than it is to 'do' -- guess what happens, eh?
[20:50:36] <paulej72> no matter what you are going to take in the bihind
[20:50:55] <Bytram> well, that seems like a small difference in cost for a dramatic difference in speed... or am I missing something?
[20:51:32] <mechanicjay> Anyone have any experience w/ MegaPath?
[20:52:39] <Bytram> not me
[20:53:20] * Bytram is familiar with Emacs, though... Ctrl+Alt+Shift+Mega+Ultra+x
[20:53:24] <Bytram> =)
[20:53:59] <mechanicjay> Look like used to be Covad/Speakeasy?
[20:55:52] <Bytram> I remember those days from a long while ago
[20:56:00] <Bytram> have no personal experience, though.
[20:56:26] <Bytram> ISTR hearing good things about speakeasy, though. Don't know how well they've held up over the years.
[20:56:41] <Bytram> mechanicjay: maybe take a look at: dslreports.com
[20:56:44] <mechanicjay> So basically, if I want more than 3M/768K service I go cable. I'm looking for a static IP which bump me into a business class connection.
[20:56:49] * Bytram thinks that is the link
[20:57:14] <mechanicjay> MegaPath can give me 16/2 w/ static IP for $125 /month, no equipment fee.
[20:57:58] <TheMightyBuzzard> ouch, i'm getting 18/1 for like $75 right now out in teh boonies
[20:58:16] <TheMightyBuzzard> competition's grand, ain't it?
[20:58:37] * Bytram tethers an old phone at about 512kbit/sec for $15/mo
[20:58:49] <mechanicjay> Comcast is 16/2 static with $89 if I bring my own modem, else tack on a $13/mo equipment fee.
[20:58:56] <TheMightyBuzzard> and a month from now, moving where there's actually three providers, i'll be paying the same and getting phone service
[20:58:56] <Bytram> (that's top speed, btw)
[20:59:04] <TheMightyBuzzard> for like 4-5x the speed
[20:59:40] <Bytram> noice!
[20:59:56] <TheMightyBuzzard> ain't google fiber but it don't suck
[21:00:24] <Bytram> mechanicjay: /me is reviewing a story about AT&T gigabit fiber atm
[21:00:43] <mechanicjay> O
[21:00:56] <Bytram> blegh -- it's *just* a link to an ars technica story

[21:02:16] <mechanicjay> I think I'm just going to have to go with the comcast. Which hurts, but going w/ someone who is not-comcast...I'm just not sure its worth the 30% premium.
[21:02:51] <Bytram> can you go on a month-by-month basis? or do you have to sign up for, say, a year at a time?
[21:03:54] <mechanicjay> depends on the plan. The MegPath is no plan, Comcast is 12mo contract.
[21:04:26] <Bytram> silly idea, but what experience do your neighbors have?
[21:04:30] <mechanicjay> oh right and because it's a for a business there is an "installaion fee". $99 for comcast, $250!! for MegaPath, unless you sign a 3yr contract.
[21:05:08] <mechanicjay> Don't know the neighbors yet, I doubt any of them are running their own servers out the house though.
[21:05:19] <Bytram> hmmmm.
[21:05:49] <Bytram> have you thought of hosting your server(s) elsewhere and remotely manage them?
[21:06:01] <mechanicjay> I want like 50/25 service w/ a static IP for less $100/mo -- why can't I have that?
[21:06:23] <Bytram> sounds reasonable to *me*!
[21:07:25] <mechanicjay> I have. I'm running everthing on a vps at the moment while I'm in transition. And to keep the price down, it's very limiting.
[21:08:06] <Bytram> yeah, I was afraid of that.
[21:08:30] <Bytram> changing the subject... do you handle the SN mailing lists?
[21:08:41] <mechanicjay> um, yes!
[21:08:45] <Bytram> I was wondering if I were on the list for editors?
[21:08:57] <mechanicjay> that's a good question, I will find out for you!
[21:09:24] <n1> dont know if there's really anything going on with editorial mailing list
[21:09:25] <Bytram> pls add me as: martyb at soylentnews dot org
[21:09:34] <n1> seem to work most of it out on teh irc
[21:09:42] <Bytram> prolly not, but knowing my luck, I'd rather not miss out, just in case
[21:09:59] <n1> we'll have to stop blaming you for everything then
[21:10:28] <paulej72> mechanicjay, also we need admin to go both to mrcoolbp and myself
[21:10:36] <Bytram> not necessarily -- you can still blame me -- and I can still deny it!
[21:11:29] * Bytram thinks that the lists might need some pruning, too. :(
[21:11:41] <n1> it's easier to blame someone if they dont have the chance to defend themselves
[21:12:14] <mechanicjay> what address paulej72?
[21:12:50] <mechanicjay> same that your sn email goes to?
[21:13:03] <paulej72> that should get to me, but if it needs a real address use the one my sn mail goes to
[21:14:26] <mechanicjay> okay, paulej72 you're set. I'll check on the mailling list as soon as I can remember the pwd.
[21:14:51] <paulej72> thanks

[21:47:10] <n1> 5000!
[21:47:18] <paulej72> ?
[21:47:46] <n1> broke the 5000 account barrier
[21:48:14] <paulej72> long time ago, get with the program man :P
[21:48:59] <n1> i'm trying to catch up, has been a busy couple months for me!
[21:49:00] <paulej72> didn't they have internet on the island that you visted
[21:49:17] <n1> they did, but i didnt have time to keep up with real work
[21:49:22] <n1> no chance of getting on here
[21:49:34] <n1> was working all the time, limited timeframe to get it done
[21:49:46] <paulej72> been there, done that
[21:49:49] <n1> hence my 28 day vacation turned into a day and a half of downtime and the rest was hard physical labour
[21:50:06] <n1> yeah, i did it last year too
[21:50:12] <n1> although in some ways that was easier
[21:50:15] <paulej72> that too, but not as long a stretch
[21:50:24] <n1> worked at night had lazy days
[21:50:32] <n1> but this year, worked during the day and evening
[21:50:38] <n1> enough time for a couple beers and dinner before bed
[21:50:45] <n1> that was about it
[21:51:07] <paulej72> at least there was beer
[21:51:23] <n1> yeah
[21:51:36] <n1> well, i worked it out at about 200 beers between my and my friend over the 28 days
[21:51:53] <n1> we had a mountain of crates, but failed because there was a crate left behind
[21:51:56] <paulej72> bottles or cans
[21:52:01] <n1> bottles
[21:52:46] <n1> drank as many last month as i will the rest of the year total
[21:52:55] <paulej72> could have built a neat beer bottle "window" like those glass blocks that are translucent
[21:53:37] <n1> didnt want to build anything for fun at that point lol
[21:55:53] <n1> wont have to do it again though
[21:56:00] <n1> all major projects complete over there now
[21:56:09] <n1> so if i do go out there again, should be mostly vacation

[22:01:55] <JamesNZ> Glad to hear that.
[22:03:20] <Leebert> This newly popular use of bold in story summaries is jarring
[22:03:53] <n1> hmm
[22:04:10] <n1> not a fan myself
[22:04:23] <n1> im going to remove it
[22:04:29] <n1> as it's redundant
[22:05:32] <paulej72> no h3s in the stories. That fuxs up things as h3s are the story titles
[22:05:51] <n1> i always remove them
[22:06:30] <paulej72> blame it on Bytram
[22:06:49] <n1> i'm fixing the stories now with the bold and h3 tags
[22:07:02] <n1> there is no benefit in having them, just distracting
[22:07:13] <n1> and if it breaks things even more reason to not have them
[22:07:51] <paulej72> i'm sort of OK with bold, just not useing header tags in the stories
[22:08:46] <n1> thats generally the only reason the bold will happen anyway
[22:09:03] <paulej72> the issue was that they were merging multiple stories and wanted each headline to stay.
[22:09:05] <n1> there are times when it's useful, but the 3 stories on the main page now
[22:09:09] <n1> it's not adding anything
[22:09:46] <n1> are you editing the NSA one now, paulej72?
[22:10:07] <paulej72> no I was jut looking at it. go ahead an edit away
[22:10:26] <n1> ok, i'll change them from h3 to bold for that one only
[22:10:33] <n1> the other two ive just removed it entirely
[22:12:35] <paulej72> it does not look so bad when using the night theme tough
[22:13:11] <n1> should update soon, changed from h3 to b and it looks better to me anyway
[22:15:36] <n1> ooo themes
[22:15:39] <n1> i am really behind the times
[22:16:17] <paulej72> now you are just being blind. We have had themes for what seems like forever.
[22:16:33] <n1> i'll be honest, i dont look at preferences and stuff very often
[22:16:41] <paulej72> OMG PWNIES is a good one
[22:16:59] <n1> my soylentnews tab spends most of its time just looking at the stories queue
[22:17:24] <Leebert> Sorry, didn't mean to kick off a controversy. :)
[22:17:43] <n1> you should be sorry for interrupting my dinner!
[22:17:44] <paulej72> no controversy,
[22:17:58] <Leebert> dinner.
[22:18:02] <Leebert> hmm. I should probably do that.
[22:18:02] <paulej72> thats what you get for starting dinner early
[22:18:06] <n1> thats the 'use classic index' all about?
[22:18:13] <n1> early? it's 22:18...
[22:18:43] <paulej72> 17:18. move west young man
[22:18:59] <n1> as far as a pink themes goes omg pwnies is pretty good heh
