[10:41:29] <Bender> karma - nicotine: 675
[10:51:12] <TheMightyBuzzard> so, it occurred to me while i was out smoking that past lives memories aren't proof of the supernatural, reincarnation, or the human soul. they're an incorrectly valued pointer.
[10:52:12] <boru> I think it's more a sign of RAID dementia.
[10:52:39] <boru> The array scrubs, and it fills in the blanks with bad data.
[10:52:57] <boru> That's more or less how our brains work cf. humans imagining how some event happened in the past, but are wrong.
[10:53:22] <boru> The pointer points to the right data, but the data is corrupted.
[10:56:14] <TheMightyBuzzard> so bad pointer still just stored as an inode rather than a ram location
[10:57:24] <boru> I was crossing my analogies, there.
[10:59:05] <boru> In terms of pointer analogies, you could consider it a dangling pointer, without an MMU.
[11:03:32] <TheMightyBuzzard> that's fine, just don't go crossing streams with me. i prefer to pee all by myself.
[11:05:24] <TheMightyBuzzard> mmm... nothing new on the embedded systems news page i check every morning. not for the past week.
[11:23:11] <boru> What site do you read? Most of them are awful.

[13:34:46] <AndyTheAbsurd> ugh... not sure if it's my instance specifically or if vultr.com's network is being really flaky lately.
[13:35:05] <AndyTheAbsurd> I wonder if I should spin up a new instance in one of their other locations.
