IRC Driven

[02:48:46] ski perhaps a smaller casket ?

[02:49:43] ski might contain some genetic material, even

[02:55:44] ski (ho hum .. apparently i had someone, it looks like, spamming, or maybe trying to scam, me, two days ago, but i didn't really notice. i interacted with them a little, after they PMed me, but then i stopped since they didn't address a question. but now i learn they were PMing others as well, possibly having worse interchanges)

[03:00:41] ski dramo : dunno. they offered to show me a portfolio, giving some link. i didn't bother to check, since they didn't answer my first question (why they decided to PM specifically me, out of the blue)

[03:04:06] ski to me, it sounded more like a person relatively new to programming, who were a bit clueless about how IRC worked

[03:06:34] ski well, "work", more as in the culture around it, rather than the technical details

[03:07:10] ski you don't like being happy ?

[03:08:25] ski a stereotype of whom ?

[03:09:10] ski mm, i guess

[03:10:29] ski it's a balance

[03:14:07] ski hm, is "nitecore" a term for playing (covering) a song in a faster tempo ?

[03:15:40] ski well, i noticed some YT covers, apparently by "Nitecore", so i thought it was a user (or group of people), who did covers. but then i saw "daycore" mentioned, in relation to a cover that played a song rather slower than original

[03:19:13] ski ah, ty, Peorth

[03:26:32] ski nitecore : is that a kind of rifle ?

[03:30:03] ski no, i mean what the rounds were for

[03:30:33] ski who ?

[03:31:10] ski ah, *your*

[03:31:42] ski the king of America ?

[03:32:43] ski sounds pretty involved/advanced, nitecore

[03:33:53] ski yea, i think i've actually heard it stands for somesuch

[03:34:39] ski irish666 : it's required, for process of becoming a citizen ?

[03:35:40] ski my nephew has an american gf. she was here for a year or so, but then had to go back. she's been filing for more permanent residence now

[03:37:15] ski (i think most i know about M-16 (?) is from a Tomb Raider game)

[03:42:03] ski yea

[03:42:17] ski i don't really like too bright light

[03:42:32] ski sorry to hear, irish666

[03:58:11] ski good night, pleasant dreams, irish666

[03:59:49] ski dramo : yea, i was thinking, when it said "throwing .. overboard", that this could be Icelandish settlers, coming from Norway

[04:03:03] ski (possibly "Njals saga" mentions that practice .. not sure)

[04:03:59] ski (or maybe it was "The Longships" by Frans Bengtson, which mentioned it)

[04:04:53] ski <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Njals_saga>,<https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Long_Ships>

[04:05:03] ski both good books

[04:05:37] ski "The Story of Burnt Njáll", is a thirteenth-century Icelandic saga that describes events between 960 and 1020.

[04:06:18] ski The Long Ships or Red Orm (original Swedish: Röde Orm meaning Red Orm, lit. Red Serpent or Red Snake) is an adventure novel .. set in the late 10th century and follows the adventures of the Viking Röde Orm - called "Red" for his hair and his temper, a native of Scania.

[04:12:04] ski sounds interesting

[04:15:09] ski (now i feel like listening to "Helvegen" (live in Nidaros) by Wardruna & Aurora at <https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FnkTuHP9q3o>)

[04:15:13] ski ok

[05:42:43] ski beep

[05:53:37] ski pebkac ?

[05:55:03] ski it did restart, no ?

[05:59:35] ski Phoenix : that about endangerment reminds me of a tree, on some pacific island, that depended on a, now extinct, large (flightless) bird, in order to reproduce

[06:01:07] ski well. more specifically, the bird ate fruits from the trea, including the seeds. the seeds got tumbled around with stones in the crop/craw of the bird, and then exposed to gastric acid

[06:02:53] ski when botanists realized this, there were only a few, old, trees of this species left. so, they tried using a file to peel off the outer layer of the seeds a bit, then put them in an acid bath. after that, the seeds grew !

[06:03:54] ski ah, apparently the bird in question was the Dodo

[06:03:57] ski (i didn't recall)

[07:50:09] ski apparently, drunk coding works better, with static typing

[14:09:50] ski oi

[14:10:27] ski VAX is a kind of old mainframe computer, iirc

[14:10:52] ski ici

[14:11:48] ski why Espereranto ?

[14:12:06] ski Lojban ?

[14:12:36] ski well, most (human) languages aren't designed

[14:12:56] ski it was evolved, i guess

[14:13:26] ski (although .. perhaps some languages, like Sanskrit, may have had some amount of design in them, a long time ago)

[14:14:11] ski by Ganesha, MagicSkyGod ?

[14:14:37] ski (isn't Ganesha supposed to be a god of books and stuff, iirc ?)

[14:14:53] ski i see, MagicSkyGod

[14:15:37] ski because of the snout ?

[14:17:18] ski irish666 : citizenship ceremony ?

[14:17:52] ski why was Rome and orthodox included ?

[14:18:07] ski i guess as some kind of ecumenical symbol

[14:19:30] ski wasn't Napoleon, as well ?

[14:19:49] ski (see no reason why there couldn't be several)

[14:20:30] ski did you get any sleep earlier, irish666 ?

[14:21:15] ski if Charles is the antichrist, then i wonder who his antichrist would be

[14:21:26] ski good

[14:21:58] ski Mikoolo : could try some Bakunin, or Kropotkin

[14:22:12] ski anarchists

[14:22:58] ski MagicSkyGod : no, i mean if he's to claim to be the second coming of Jesus, he's gotta have a fake antichrist to depose first, no ?

[14:23:37] ski Bakunin critisized Marx in the International, predicting parts of what happened in Russia

[14:24:44] ski (one could also argue that Nietszche predicted parts of the 1900s century)

[14:25:20] ski irish666 : but then there's Magna Charta and such, too

[14:25:37] ski g'tag herr h4

[14:28:15] ski wasn't there a german line that got to the throne ?

[19:30:15] ski nice, ComputerTech :) (learning physics and stuff)

[19:43:04] ski "stuff that i didnt care for, i was bad in" -- similar here

[19:43:46] ski having a general familiarity with various different subjects gives perspective. and it's good to cultivate curiosity

[19:45:34] ski ("Blåtira" means the same as "Black Eye")

[19:46:01] ski (it's an old pop/soda/whatever-they-call-it, from around here)

[19:46:18] ski bonjour

[19:47:15] ski die sushichen

[19:49:32] ski sushi-chan : i guess if they only learn pronounciation (or perhaps also katakana,hiragana,kanji)

[19:50:24] ski huh

[19:52:14] ski it's fine, sushi-chan. you can talk about that if you want, yes

[19:52:49] ski login : opposite, how ?

[19:53:20] ski h4 : could have called people goats

[19:55:23] ski with technical hardware, one can use a bit of voilence

[19:55:33] ski like slapping the TV, if it's flipping out

[19:58:43] ski my motherfather adviced my mother, when she was in school, and was being bullied, to "give them enough so they think twice about repeating it" (she's always been strong in her arms, was able to wrestle with, and wrestle arms, with most boys in her class, and win. but she was shy and timid, when young)

[20:00:31] ski login : part of it was because she wasn't speaking the local dialect ("you're speaking wrong !"), since they moved around quite a bit

[20:02:17] ski login : people didn't listen that much to TV and radio that it influenced local dialects that much, at the time, i think

[20:05:54] ski i think it can probably be healthy, for little boys (who're so inclined) to tumble around in physical fights, if everyone participating is in on it, and they're taught fairness, not to seriously harm, not to unfairly gang up, not to hit sensitive areas, not to hit someone who's lying on the ground (while you're not), &c. -- although i was never really into such things

[20:06:24] ski some people are quite physical, and need to be taught proper rules of conduct

[20:13:04] ski that's a horrible thing for her to say, sushi-chan :(

[20:13:43] ski you're not a piece of shit, sushi-chan

[20:14:04] ski everyone has some issue, or another

[20:15:25] ski if you insist, sushi-chan, then okay (although i agree with login,Mikoolo)

[20:17:42] ski sushi-chan : it's good that you realize you may have a problem. best course of action then is not to feel unnworthy, or want to deprive yourself of good things, but to try to work on stuff, best you can manage (even if it can feel frustrating at times, seeing little progress)

[20:18:29] ski sushi-chan : if you do feel a need to back off for a while, to cool down, that's fine

[20:20:27] ski sushi-chan : you commonly make this channel liven up, in a good way. that's a good trait of yours

[20:22:26] ski it's good that you feel more calm now

[20:23:13] ski (well, with or without professional)

[20:25:12] ski sushi-chan : i think sometimes we may suppress parts of ourselves, thinking "i'm not like that" or "i don't want to be like that", which can sometimes cause it to resurface surprisingly, when we don't expect it. it's harder to try to understand those parts, to face, them, to accept them as being there, for the time being, while still wanting to improve

[20:26:04] ski i think ComputerTech may be studying ?

[20:29:04] ski h4 : "Wolf Totem" by "The HU" might be an alternative

[20:29:23] ski (mongolian folk metal)

[20:30:31] ski MatCat : that's something you've in common with me, and sushi, i guess

[20:31:57] ski MatCat : the latter

[20:33:29] ski sushi-chan : .. and, i suspect, people calling them who shouldn't be calling

[20:34:19] ski i heard somewhere that, at least in some places, women often get in touch easier with emergency services, than weremen

[20:35:00] ski (someone said they'd collected statistics on when them, respectively their wife, had called, how many minutes it had taken to get ahold of a relevant person, if at all)

[20:37:25] ski ehlo Fred

[20:38:15] ski login : good choice

[20:39:09] ski lovely

[20:41:46] ski Armenia, Bosnia, and Colombia, perchance

[20:42:38] ski login : yea, i realize, just jesting :p

[20:43:39] ski sushi-chan : not ABBA and Volvo ? or wall-clock-making and chocolate ?

[20:44:19] ski yep, nowadays

[20:44:32] ski it's latin for "i roll"

[20:45:15] ski hm .. isn't there some alcohol called Pernod or somesuch ?

[20:48:04] ski isn't it early, rather ?

[20:51:12] ski good to hear you're better, Frogorg

[20:52:33] ski good night, and pleasant dreams, sushi-chan. hope you manage to get to sleep

[20:54:04] ski my sister's fiancé has hunting license

[20:54:38] ski hm, and Switzerland ?

[20:55:08] ski (hm, think i also heard something about guns being more common in Greece)

[21:23:06] ski yea, but istr it hadn't gone into effect, yet

[21:23:38] ski mhm, i see

[22:22:13] ski heya Saphir :)

[22:24:49] ski what kind of poison was that ?

[22:25:21] ski hm, never heard. ty
