[00:11:11] <Bytram> LOL! I was starting to wonder if *anyone* got it!
[01:48:40] <fliptop> Hey now, let's not slight those among us who actually cut down trees
[03:38:46] <drussell> I had to fire up the ol' Jonsered 635 this evening to clean up some stuff in the yard...
[03:39:45] <drussell> I still have one small tree that died, out in front by the lilac bushes that I need to take down tomorrow. It didn't make it through last year's heatwave
[03:40:36] <drussell> There are two more big ones from the previous year that I need to section down, but I think they're too big for me to do myself, probably have to hire someone with actual skills ;)
[03:43:35] <drussell> Oh, wait... I think it's a 630. I can't remember off the top of my head. It's getting pretty old, madenut I know it's made in Sweden. :)
[03:43:57] <drussell> but I know

[08:31:11] <soylentil77> Outside of all the lumberjacks, who are the temporary board members? Asking for a Federal Agency.

[10:21:14] <fliptop> drussell: I'm heading to my college buddy's house in Indiana in a couple of weeks. His place is inside the path of totality for the eclipse. He's got some massive trees that came down and in the recent high winds we've had. Should be a couple hundred board feet of lumber.
[10:24:33] <fliptop> This is what his woods looked like last year: http://www.peacecomputers.com
[11:02:27] <janrinok> ACs, there is another journal that you can use: https://soylentnews.org
[11:02:28] <systemd> ^ 03Journal of cureable (44180)
[11:05:22] <janrinok> and another: https://soylentnews.org
[11:05:23] <systemd> ^ 03Journal of friendis (44175)
[11:06:57] <janrinok> https://soylentnews.org
[11:06:58] <systemd> ^ 03Journal of siyamisprint (44177)
[11:07:32] <janrinok> these are all commercial accounts that have created a journal. Use it as you wish.
[11:08:23] <requerdanos> ~within reason. of course.
[11:08:47] <janrinok> https://soylentnews.org
[11:08:47] <systemd> ^ 03Journal of magnetictrading (44133)
[11:09:47] <janrinok> well nobody else is ever going to read them! But use them within reasonable limits I suppose. They have all be banned because they are commercial.
[11:10:09] <requerdanos> I don't know why such spammers take the time, honestly
[11:10:29] <janrinok> https://soylentnews.org
[11:10:29] <systemd> ^ 03Journal of inchhair (44128)
[11:10:58] <chromas> boosting google ranking
[11:11:11] <janrinok> They are all automated - they are problem spamming hundreds of other sites too.
[11:11:19] <chromas> "Look at all these other sites linking to my totally legitimate website!"
[11:11:46] <fab23> now they get also a link boost through the public logs of this channel :)
[11:12:18] <janrinok> It always surprises me that ACs have latched on to these before - these have all been created in the last few days.
[11:12:45] <janrinok> *ACs haven't
[11:13:55] <fab23> because they are not directly visible on the site
[11:14:06] <janrinok> I also think that the journal entries are often created by AI. Anyone who writes like this shouldn't be allowed to join any site.
[11:14:34] <janrinok> fab23, but surely, ACs say they just want a place to chat. They do not need to be on the front page do they? :)
[11:14:51] <janrinok> .... and I won't call you Shirley
[11:16:31] <fab23> I was just wondering how ACs then will find this journals to use, if they are not visible from the site itself.
[11:17:35] <janrinok> They claim that they talk to each other elsewhere on IRC - and they can always exchange journal links on here in exactly the same way as I have done.
[11:17:51] <fab23> ah i see
[11:18:25] <requerdanos> if they don't want a pseudonym on soylentnews, why would they want a pseudonym (a nick in this case) on irc? what's the practical difference? Just wondering
[11:19:37] <janrinok> Perhaps though they are not being entirely honest in their arguments to be allowed to post in Metas and in other stories. Perhaps they just want all the perks and none of the responsibility for their actions. Gosh, I am surprised.....
[11:20:37] <janrinok> They can always post as AC in a journal. They do it to enough journals belonging to other community members.
[11:21:06] <janrinok> and 'soylent xx' isn't exactly telling us much.
[11:21:29] <chromas> More importantly, I just noticed after I finally updated Waterfox, the little statusbar doesn't popup when I mouseover links anymore. My day is ruined!
[17:10:49] <Ingar> Enter the Weekend!
[18:04:37] <janrinok> I know it is the weekend - it has started raining!
[18:14:33] <Ingar> I might get a few clear hours tomorrow evening
[18:15:06] <Ingar> might be a good time to invite some people to watch the moon
[18:15:49] <Ingar> too much moonlight to do pictures anyway

[21:59:06] <mrpg> MDC had a wife? what happened, how did she die?
[22:53:18] <chromas> Dunno. Maybe we should document him in the wiki
[23:45:45] <mrpg> Upon my death, I direct that my remains be refrigerated but not frozen then expeditiously transported to Ralph Reynaud, 3138 Wai'alae Ave, Suite 531 Kaimuki, Hawaii 96816 in the United States Of America.
