IRC Driven

[00:01:34] tr [T] <+login> are salamanders not young snakes?

[00:03:34] tr [T] <+login> creepy crawlies

[00:15:00] tr [T] <+login> Are they going to close crypto-associated people's accounts?

[00:15:13] tr [T] <+login> i.e., financial cancellation if you get caught holding crypto

[00:16:29] tr [T] <+login> They are an information broker in the computing space - LTT

[00:16:54] tr [T] <+login> irish666: USD or USDT?

[00:17:20] tr [T] <+login> maybe they can't settle to GBP anymore - no GBP banking relationship

[00:17:55] tr [T] <+login> there is a cozy relationship between banking and government

[00:18:14] tr [T] <+login> gory

[00:19:37] tr [T] <+login> > via Faster Payments and card

[00:20:34] tr [T] <+login> who is it?

[00:21:31] tr [T] <+login> so it's sold to corsair?

[00:23:10] tr [T] <+login> s> https://wiza.co/d/corsair/eea5/terren-tong

[00:23:16] tr [T] <+login> > Senior Director of Marketing and Business Development for Systems at Corsair

[00:23:36] tr [T] <+login> hi H

[00:31:31] tr [T] <+login> they might still be the sole shareholders and directors of the company, but does that mean LTT has issued convertible debt to Corsair?

[00:31:46] tr [T] <+login> or an option to acquire equity in the future?

[00:32:25] tr [T] <+login> It doesn't have to be equity for Corsair to have financial interest in LTT

[00:32:59] tr [T] <+login> even pure debt means if LTT can't pay it back, Corsair owns the company

[00:37:03] tr [T] <+login> why would a ceo like him join the company with no shareholding? he's not sam altman though

[00:41:42] tr [T] <+login> I think his concern was that the company was becoming a 'family' company, if you know what i mean

[00:42:02] tr [T] <+login> and instead of hiring HR, he hired the guy whom they could suddenly afford

[00:43:50] tr [T] <+login> yeah, i did not know that

[00:43:56] tr [T] <+login> i was mistaken

[00:44:26] tr [T] <+login> it seems like he found a really good place to land - LTT is good at marketing products

[00:45:28] tr [T] <+login> The main issue is, what are they buying for 100 million?

[00:45:48] tr [T] <+login> The channel needs his face to succeed

[00:46:10] tr [T] <+login> Yeah, that's why he didn't accept the 100 million

[00:46:56] tr [T] <+login> and less time justifying why someone is getting paid 'x' and not progressing

[00:47:35] tr [T] <+login> Maybe one of the disgruntled employees would come out with a piece about him being a bad boss

[00:47:55] tr [T] <+login> Will he have creative control of who he shows in the videos?

[00:48:26] tr [T] <+login> The relationship with the audience needs him to not sell out

[00:48:53] tr [T] <+login> which they send in the hope he will feature it on his channel

[00:49:30] tr [T] <+login> He fudged the part about why they could afford the terren tong

[00:49:45] tr [T] <+login> the Q&A would be really good

[00:49:55] tr [T] <+login> with audience live questions

[00:50:28] tr [T] <+login> That's good - he knew he can't lose the audience's trust

[00:50:32] tr [T] <+login> *he knows

[00:50:58] tr [T] <+login> Here's a little secret: He even built a system for someone very high up in North Korea

[00:51:07] tr [T] <+login> rumored to be Kim Jong-un

[00:51:39] tr [T] <+login> He timed it well - with elon musk finding a new ceo for twitter

[00:51:47] tr [T] <+login> and the thing he has with spacex

[00:52:05] tr [T] <+login> Null_Anonymous: he didn't say it out loud like that, but the hints are there

[00:52:12] tr [T] <+login> it's the pyramidal one

[00:52:43] tr [T] <+login> > https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IkELZbTxsHg

[00:53:02] tr [T] <+login> oh lol, i guess my 'intelligence' was pointless - maybe it was indirect

[00:53:14] tr [T] <+login> Doesn't it feel like what happened to freenode?

[00:53:55] tr [T] <+login> Why does the video call the corsair exec 'annoying'?

[00:54:27] tr [T] <+login> So he needed HR essentially

[00:55:03] tr [T] <+login> yeah, it might just be my pattern recogition of pyramid + specific desires + willing to pay extra for a pyramid = NK pyramid kim-jong un

[00:55:22] tr [T] <+login> there is a building of the same shape in Pyongyang - similar pet project

[00:57:35] tr [T] <~ComputerTech> nitecore o/

[00:57:42] tr [T] <&nitecore> lo

[00:57:46] tr [T] <~ComputerTech> sup

[00:57:46] tr [T] <~ComputerTech> :>

[00:59:31] tr [T] <+login> I mean, there is still stuff that goes into NK - there is still trade despite the embargo

[01:02:28] tr [T] <&nitecore> not much, how goes it

[01:03:54] tr [T] <+login> My guess would be Canada -> Corsair -> China -> North Korea

[01:04:46] tr [T] <+login> If Linus was different, he would give others more screen time and retire peacefully with 100m

[01:05:16] tr [T] <+login> weechat me too

[01:07:27] tr [T] <+login> try the tui stuff, ct

[01:07:37] tr [T] <+login> it's still in use in server stuff

[01:07:46] tr [T] <+login> i mean, weechat

[01:08:14] tr [T] <+login> lol, screen+irssi?

[01:08:38] tr [T] <+login> ComputerTech: why "crovax: :|"

[01:09:09] tr [T] <+login> computertech: screen is a program to run several shells inside the same session

[01:09:18] tr [T] <+login> it's equivalent to tmux (terminal multiplexer)

[01:09:29] tr [T] <+login> tmux+weechat vs. screen+irssi

[01:09:39] tr [T] <+login> how do you persist your connection then?

[01:09:54] tr [T] <+login> that ban didn't show up through the technet relay

[01:10:03] tr [T] <+login> byobu is tmux

[01:10:45] tr [T] <+login> yeah, i think it can use screen as its backend too

[01:24:04] tr [T] <+login> is that a real product?

[01:45:52] tr [T] <+ChanRank> (ChanRank): Deactiv8d is an idler or unknown...

[02:09:44] tr [T] <+login> what are man juices?

[02:10:51] tr [T] <+login> re:stop resisting your arrest - the way they elicit your initial resistance is by kicking or otherwise harming you during the arrest

[02:11:04] tr [T] <+login> it is a natural body reaction to resist that

[02:11:56] tr [T] <+login> they won't be reprimanded for the initial kicking - because that's the equivalent of a cali 0 km/h stop at a stop sign

[02:12:38] tr [T] <+login> hands behind your head you mean? if it's lower body, they may suspect gun

[02:13:16] tr [T] <+login> i mean as they are approaching you

[02:13:29] tr [T] <+login> Zack: what about the spider?

[02:14:55] tr [T] <+login> yeah, it is not well-known enough that they are very well-versed in criminal law - they study it, often more knowledgable in the part they need to know than even the prosecutor

[02:15:28] tr [T] <+login> I hope my driving skills are up-to-notch

[02:16:26] tr [T] <+login> if going to a protest for example, legal observers and knowing the rules is important

[02:16:53] tr [T] <+login> gone to a protest?

[02:17:19] tr [T] <+login> perhaps the gov is bringing in a policy that you don't agree with and that affects you financially

[02:17:49] tr [T] <+login> yes, that is a very good way to defuse things

[02:18:14] tr [T] <+login> i guess that's why hong kongers were dismayed when what was perceived as a 'hack/cheat' was removed from their voting system

[02:18:28] tr [T] <+login> you're a very good civic citizen, MatCat

[02:18:46] tr [T] <+login> they should teach these kinds of things in civics in school

[02:18:51] tr [T] <+login> if they don't already do so

[02:19:49] tr [T] <+login> even the calling and writing to elected officials?

[02:20:32] tr [T] <+login> there is also that not everybody is allowed to stand up for election

[02:20:46] tr [T] <+login> or that there is significant pressure not to take certain positions, no matter which candidate it is

[02:20:57] tr [T] <+login> i.e., suppression of the list of choices a voter could be presented with

[02:21:46] tr [T] <+login> and even post-election, taking difficult decisions that undo something someone in the past has and continues to benefit from

[02:26:33] tr [T] <+login> there was no gap between the shop and the last bang

[02:26:50] tr [T] <+login> plus, it would have been a waste with your explosive ammo

[02:27:28] tr [T] <+login> Zack: spiderman is cool, but spiders aren't

[02:27:58] tr [T] <+login> oh, so that's why it was so fast

[02:31:04] tr [T] <+login> CoolKevin: regarding man juices, have you heard of the reddit 'box'?

[02:31:33] tr [T] <+login> internet is bringing the fringe to the forefront: https://www.reddit.com/r/RedditsMuseumofFilth/comments/ot8gl9/cum_box_the_original_story_archived_post/

[02:31:40] tr [T] <+login> *the internet

[02:31:49] tr [T] <+login> use old.reddit.com

[02:33:33] tr [T] <+login> man, the larger the population to sample from, the weirder stuff gets

[02:33:52] tr [T] <+login> but per-1000 people, perhaps you are right MatCat

[02:34:15] tr [T] <+login> in the age of the internet, information intake management is something that should be taught

[03:26:43] tr [T] <+login> ski: meaning, spending my savings instead of letting it collect interest

[03:27:32] tr [T] <+login> in an apocalypse, you'd be the energy source

[03:28:07] tr [T] <+login> diversity of function is necessary to build resilience

[03:28:42] tr [T] <+login> you're part of that diversity: you'll be partly responsible for that resilience in the event of an apocalypse

[03:33:00] tr [T] <+login> money

[03:33:26] tr [T] <+login> on food, rent, health insurance etc.

[03:33:56] tr [T] <+login> that must be a secret membership

[03:34:28] tr [T] <+login> well, technically, you may not be paying $500 per month to get the 500-per-month rizon membership

[03:34:39] tr [T] <+login> irc gold - good meme

[03:35:59] tr [T] <+login> slave implies being forced

[03:36:07] tr [T] <+login> you're just a generous person

[03:36:38] tr [T] <+login> ski: bleeding into real life is where one's online chats in formal contexts start getting affected by one's irc habits

[03:37:30] tr [T] <+login> hmm, would anyone pay $500 a month to get MS Paint jpegs from ComputerTech?

[03:37:55] tr [T] <+login> ski: it might bleed into those too

[03:38:05] tr [T] <+login> !bangn't

[03:38:16] tr [T] <+login> no way, i attempted the duck, so it should be 'mine'

[03:39:30] tr [T] <+login> Was this channel more peaceful and kind-hearted before?

[03:39:46] tr [T] <+login> I'm sure CT got his start on computer stuff on MS Paint

[03:39:55] tr [T] <+login> before a while

[03:42:33] tr [T] <+login> was TorS good to everyone here?

[03:42:47] tr [T] <+login> a bit rich?

[03:43:26] tr [T] <+login> emotionally immature?

[03:43:31] tr [T] <+login> or childish?

[03:44:16] tr [T] <+login> Did he just want to do anything that was not technically prevented?

[03:45:22] tr [T] <+login> So he was just into that stuff at age 60? was he living on his savings?

[03:48:58] tr [T] <+login> so you were here before you were 18?

[03:49:15] tr [T] <+login> I forgot jmjl is also here...

[03:49:37] tr [T] <+login> my first exposure to irc was after joining a pubnix

[03:49:43] tr [T] <+login> i.e., i found tilde.green before technet

[03:50:18] tr [T] <+login> yes

[03:50:22] tr [T] <+login> they're nicer

[03:50:29] tr [T] <+login> than here

[03:50:40] tr [T] <+login> They won't discuss divisive topics

[03:51:03] tr [T] <+login> I thought it was a good place to have heavy discussions civilly

[03:51:31] tr [T] <+login> but it imparts a mental toll on other readers

[03:52:02] tr [T] <+login> thank you, NiniGeo2, coleslaw is good

[03:52:32] tr [T] <+login> good for some, bad for some others - and the same person may feel differently at different times

[03:53:16] tr [T] <+login> fresh coleslaw is the bet

[03:53:18] tr [T] <+login> *st

[03:53:44] tr [T] <+login> rizon is a 'free speech' platform after all

[03:54:18] tr [T] <+login> the spirit of positivity (i.e., optimism), helpfulness, interestingness, curiosity and useful discussion with counterpoints

[03:55:17] tr [T] <+login> yeah, it was just a sentence fragment attached to your sentence

[03:55:29] tr [T] <+login> you could join the two with -

[03:56:55] tr [T] <+login> or sensitive?

[03:57:30] tr [T] <+login> the well-off places have a lot of normalcy - the rest of the world is quite unhappy and darwinian

[03:58:40] tr [T] <+login> the survivors will be loud-mouthed and thick-skinned rather than the (cultured?) norm of polite and sensitive

[03:58:52] tr [T] <+login> sensitive to others' feelings

[03:59:23] tr [T] <+login> loud-mouthed and sensitive?

[03:59:37] tr [T] <+login> or, like ComputerTech, polite and thick-skinned?

[04:00:07] tr [T] <+login> like digital electronics

[04:00:24] tr [T] <+login> not an analog transistor

[04:01:48] tr [T] <+login> Zack: in my imagine, that plug has a dangly earring on the end of it

[04:01:51] tr [T] <+login> *imagination

[04:08:15] tr [T] <+login> it's what one would find at mcdonald's but better

[04:08:31] tr [T] <+login> yet they don't stock it

[04:08:46] tr [T] <+login> corporation is too large and controlling

[04:09:10] tr [T] <+login> where else are people gonna go for a fast meal?

[04:09:17] tr [T] <+login> at the same price point

[04:09:56] tr [T] <+login> but how much would you pay yourself to make it?

[04:10:14] tr [T] <+login> oh, don't say that

[04:10:31] tr [T] <+login> if only they taught that at school

[04:10:44] tr [T] <+login> home economics, taxes, cooking, life skills essentially

[04:11:01] tr [T] <+login> they can keep all the math and quadratic equations optional

[04:12:10] tr [T] <+login> in fact, the more people commit to it, the lower the restaurant/takeout/fast food places will have to eventually price their products

[04:12:54] tr [T] <+login> but showing off is not positive

[04:13:29] tr [T] <+login> people shunning others who display negative emotion is very real

[04:13:39] tr [T] <+login> my hypothesis is, it's a tribal thing

[04:13:55] tr [T] <+login> a kind of social selection - as bad as an idea like this is to discuss

[04:14:40] tr [T] <+login> MatCat also buys rats instead of breeding them for his snakes

[04:14:52] tr [T] <+login> the snakes get the McDonald's, and he eats at home

[04:15:11] tr [T] <+login> It might as well be a protected species

[04:15:43] tr [T] <+login> well, negative experiences and emotions are anti-memes

[04:17:04] tr [T] <+login> tell your wife -> she'll leave you

[04:17:16] tr [T] <+login> tell your parents -> they'll endure it if they're good parents, but otherwise...

[04:17:25] tr [T] <+login> therapist -> good avenue

[04:18:20] tr [T] <+login> Only the paranoid survive

[04:18:31] tr [T] <+login> things do resolve themselves

[04:18:35] tr [T] <+login> eventually

[04:18:40] tr [T] <+login> nothing goes on forever

[04:18:46] tr [T] <+login> things that are hard to spread

[04:18:53] tr [T] <+login> things people keep to themselves

[04:19:01] tr [T] <+login> getting scammed is one of them

[04:19:58] tr [T] <+login> Would that be positive thinking?

[04:21:50] tr [T] <+login> MatCat: do they think that will solve homelessness?

[04:22:26] tr [T] <+login> ski: there was a short film on that topic, if i recall correctly

[04:22:46] tr [T] <+login> had a counter with the number of days since the last one in a hospital - and then someone discovers an afterlife

[04:23:10] tr [T] <+login> MatCat: yeah, it is a culling

[04:23:37] tr [T] <+login> They see no difference between new children not being born vs. already-born people being harmed

[04:24:10] tr [T] <+login> Pension funds and insurance companies see this playing out

[04:24:26] tr [T] <+login> The number of new workers joining is lesser than the number of workers leaving and cashing their pensions out

[04:24:45] tr [T] <+login> So they can't rely on the assets under management growing through an increase in the number of units sold

[04:24:56] tr [T] <+login> They have to make the existing number of units (or fewer units) go up in value

[04:25:08] tr [T] <+login> ski: correct

[04:25:38] tr [T] <+login> There is enough housing supply as it is, and empty billionaire apartments are being built too

[04:25:59] tr [T] <+login> it's just that it's all empty, waiting for a tenant willing to pay a price

[04:26:27] tr [T] <+login> Socialism, if the price of building the apartment were controlled, can solve the problem

[04:26:55] tr [T] <+login> The swedish method (was it swedish or finnish, idk) is to solve the roof first

[04:26:59] tr [T] <+login> the other problems later

[04:27:40] tr [T] <+login> There should be a large enough safety net for anyone to be able to get into a, let's say, very basic place to live

[04:28:18] tr [T] <+login> Will they destroy it?

[04:28:26] tr [T] <+login> that seems sad to hear

[04:29:04] tr [T] <+login> Meaning, urinate on the floor?

[04:29:09] tr [T] <+login> or just light it on fire?

[04:29:21] tr [T] <+login> No cleaning?

[04:29:26] tr [T] <+login> Perhaps they should be housed in a hotel

[04:29:47] tr [T] <+login> there are movies showing how crazy the asylums can get

[04:31:17] tr [T] <+login> They shut the motel down or changed management?

[04:31:56] tr [T] <+login> perhaps leaving properties empty and letting the homeless squat there is best

[04:33:11] tr [T] <+login> There doesn't seem to be a humane solution then

[04:33:53] tr [T] <+login> Such a discussion is one I could never imagine having in the other irc communities

[04:34:22] tr [T] <+login> Too many will be uncomfortable expressing and reading others express these

[04:34:43] tr [T] <+login> Nature vs. nurture - connects to eugenics and raising children too

[04:35:05] tr [T] <+login> What about getting equity in a person's future income?

[04:35:11] tr [T] <+login> or is that like slavery?

[04:35:59] tr [T] <+login> yes, the more polite and considerate ones

[04:36:29] tr [T] <+login> MatCat: for example, someone could buy a portion of my future income for an upfront payment

[04:37:13] tr [T] <+login> yeah, but if that's if you sell all of it

[04:37:37] tr [T] <+login> and indentured servitude involves debt

[04:37:56] tr [T] <+login> So if I were someone who is hand to mouth, but I know if I could get a buffer of money, I would be able to earn a higher income

[04:38:32] tr [T] <+login> Or a child whose parents were hand to mouth, and if a larger investment were to be made possible in the child's development, they would be able to earn a higher income in the future

[04:39:13] tr [T] <+login> but wages can be garnished

[04:39:34] tr [T] <+login> correct

[04:39:43] tr [T] <+login> it is a lot like venture investment

[04:40:33] tr [T] <+login> how many people, if you start them off with 0 at age 18, can provide themselves basic living?

[04:40:41] tr [T] <+login> 0 inheritance, only public school or no school

[04:41:48] tr [T] <+login> but if it's equity, it could work

[04:42:11] tr [T] <+login> if someone becomes ultrasuccessful, you get 10% of their billionaire wealth

[04:42:38] tr [T] <+login> yeah, if one can see homelessness coming, one should direct themselves away from that direction

[04:43:17] tr [T] <+login> it does work in the 'rest of the world'

[04:43:32] tr [T] <+login> and parents do put money into their own children's development

[04:43:44] tr [T] <+login> true ^

[04:44:07] tr [T] <+login> they do figure out some way of making do

[04:44:54] tr [T] <+login> more than half the world is urban though

[04:45:16] tr [T] <+login> 55% now

[04:45:41] tr [T] <+login> if it's one of the big cities, it might be urban

[04:46:02] tr [T] <+login> semi-urban i guess

[04:47:37] tr [T] <+login> And their innovation level at the fringes is much higher than the average professional

[04:48:21] tr [T] <+login> some might not be inhabited

[04:48:30] tr [T] <+login> but those are the failed projects

[04:48:53] tr [T] <+login> In America, companies fail. In China, jump-starting a city fails

[04:50:06] tr [T] <+login> yeah, that is very true. the rich people of china don't have anywhere to invest

[04:50:37] tr [T] <+login> jack ma got scorched by the chinese gov for saying that plainly in a public conference

[04:51:07] tr [T] <+login> a finsihed home has bad feng shui

[04:51:38] tr [T] <+login> india is much worse

[04:52:18] tr [T] <+login> but the gdp of china vs. gdp of india

[04:52:24] tr [T] <+login> almost the same population

[04:52:51] tr [T] <+login> it is a reflection of it though

[04:53:19] tr [T] <+login> the people are working though, otherwise the gov wouldn't be getting the money

[04:53:40] tr [T] <+login> yet the gov is getting all this money?

[04:53:53] tr [T] <+login> but i do agree that the chinese people are living below their means

[04:54:03] tr [T] <+login> and it is because of their government

[04:54:25] tr [T] <+login> because their state has usurped it?

[04:54:42] tr [T] <+login> the state considers it 'forced savings'

[04:55:07] tr [T] <+login> ^ yeah

[04:55:14] tr [T] <+login> jack ma called this out in his speech

[04:55:23] tr [T] <+login> he said even a beggar needs to have credit - otherwise they can't beg

[04:55:33] tr [T] <+login> can't beg and get any alms

[04:56:15] tr [T] <+login> Their state is trying to complete the infraction-penalty space

[04:56:29] tr [T] <+login> relatively small penalties for small infractions

[04:56:47] tr [T] <+login> small penalty = not small effect on the person, but small in cost to implement

[04:57:10] tr [T] <+login> they do it with late bills, perhaps even jaywaking?

[04:57:13] tr [T] <+login> *walking

[04:57:40] tr [T] <+login> On the higher risk side, they prefer not to impose too much regulation

[04:57:58] tr [T] <+login> But they will judge your results and impose penalties based on those, so if you fuck up, you'll get fucked over by the gov

[04:58:18] tr [T] <+login> There are stories of ponzi scheme orchestrators being executed

[04:58:28] tr [T] <+login> and the organ selling of prisoners, etc.

[04:59:07] tr [T] <+login> The legal system is unfair to whomever they perceive to be criminally minded

[04:59:14] tr [T] <+login> Alibaba founder

[04:59:19] tr [T] <+login> co-founder*

[04:59:24] tr [T] <+login> a kind of Steve-Jobs figure

[05:00:19] tr [T] <+login> Japan is similar: their legal system is both unfair to those they want to convict, but also very lax on high executives who commit financial crimes

[05:00:27] tr [T] <+login> the crimes get hidden for years, decades

[05:00:40] tr [T] <+login> high-up executives*

[05:02:08] tr [T] <+login> does that happen?

[05:02:21] tr [T] <+login> i have only heard of kuroshi

[05:02:25] tr [T] <+login> people being overworked

[05:02:52] tr [T] <+login> They will apologise and bow though

[05:03:32] tr [T] <+login> Showing repentance is a key part of being forgiven

[05:03:46] tr [T] <+login> Yeah, a no to the face is a loss of face for the other party

[05:04:05] tr [T] <+login> The other party must understand it is making an unreasonable request and withdraw their request

[05:04:16] tr [T] <+login> based on hints dropped by the first party

[05:05:05] tr [T] <+login> i.e., don't test the generosity of the first party, because social norms indicate that generosity must be shown

[05:16:00] tr [T] <+login> (it's a retro dance video, by japanese performers) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9RRqvTZJGNw

[05:28:08] tr [T] <+login> do you like japanese women, MatCat?

[05:28:31] tr [T] <+login> they're not a monolith, you know?

[05:30:15] tr [T] <+login> also, who here has memorised the Planck constant?

[05:31:02] tr [T] <+login> but it's an exact number now, you know why right?

[05:31:09] tr [T] <+login> MatCat: what if she's a cute woman?

[05:31:31] tr [T] <+login> you said cute girl

[05:31:56] tr [T] <+login> What about boy and man?

[05:32:34] tr [T] <+login> i mean, about their synonymy

[05:33:17] tr [T] <+login> Would you consider yourself to be a cute boy? (it is the term a cute girl might call you by)

[05:33:49] tr [T] <+login> But a big snake at home

[05:33:55] tr [T] <+login> More than a few snakes

[05:34:38] tr [T] <+login> does your false water cobra look like a water cobra?

[05:34:46] tr [T] <+login> it's nice seeing mimicry in nature

[05:35:04] tr [T] <+login> there are two links in there though

[05:35:53] tr [T] <+login> what's your image sharing system? every share seems to be forwarded

[05:36:07] tr [T] <+login> i've seen this one before

[05:36:16] tr [T] <+login> exact same image in fact

[05:36:25] tr [T] <+login> i did not know ahsoka (the snake) was a false water cobra

[05:37:14] tr [T] <+login> the name of one

[05:37:25] tr [T] <+login> they're so similar, how can you tell the difference?

[05:38:03] tr [T] <+login> fooled me

[05:38:47] tr [T] <+login> i see it now

[05:39:34] tr [S] <+phish> !bang

[05:39:37] tr [S] <+phish> !bang

[05:39:42] tr [S] <+phish> !reload

[05:39:44] tr [S] <+phish> !bang

[05:39:53] tr [T] <+login> the dots look like bands though

[05:40:58] tr [T] <+login> oh yeah, the bands are much more pronounced on the real water cobra

[05:41:48] tr [T] <+login> So the name is the confusion

[05:42:16] tr [T] <+login> How did you learn how to rear and keep snakes?

[05:42:20] tr [T] <+login> handling etc.

[05:42:37] tr [T] <+login> reddit research?

[05:43:02] tr [T] <+login> i know the internet is big, but i didn't know it had so many niches

[05:43:30] tr [T] <+login> You dived into it and learned on the job essentially?

[05:43:44] tr [T] <+login> ski: yes, it gets closer to the present

[05:45:08] tr [T] <+login> ski: it was during Japan's bubble

[05:45:16] tr [T] <+login> when the US was scared of how fast Japan was rising

[05:45:30] tr [T] <+login> before that

[05:45:32] tr [T] <+login> 1990s

[05:45:42] tr [T] <+login> 1986 to 1991

[05:46:32] tr [T] <+login> japanese asset prices and japan's stock market index nikkei hasn't reached that level until today

[05:46:45] tr [T] <+login> well, actually, it reached that level today - https://www.reuters.com/markets/asia/nikkei-powers-japans-1990-bubble-era-high-2023-05-19/

[05:48:54] tr [T] <+login> imagine waiting for the index to pick up from 1991 to 2021

[05:49:42] tr [T] <+login> yeah

[05:49:53] tr [T] <+login> If only they knew AI was the fifth generation computer

[05:50:03] tr [T] <+login> deep learning etc.

[05:50:34] tr [T] <+login> seems it hasn't reached its bubble high yet: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nikkei_225#/media/File:Nikkei_225(1970-).svg

[05:50:43] tr [T] <+login> if you bought that peak, you're still down

[05:51:21] tr [T] <+login> Japan used to have the world's more energy efficient super computer too

[05:51:25] tr [T] <+login> *supercomputer

[05:54:11] tr [T] <+login> Oh, the US even got an exascale supercomputer now: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Frontier_(supercomputer)

[05:54:15] tr [T] <+login> the US has*

[05:57:07] tr [T] <+login> but fastest in floating point operations

[05:57:29] tr [T] <+login> I read somewhere that they use it to manage their nuclear stockpile

[05:57:44] tr [T] <+login> predictive maintenance

[06:00:34] tr [T] <+login> tbh, the next jesus would probably be in the garb of satan

[06:01:01] tr [T] <+login> jesus was a programmer

[06:01:04] tr [T] <+login> (of minds)

[06:02:18] tr [T] <+login> i am not religious though

[06:08:05] tr [T] <+login> ski: meaning, coming up with a set of beliefs (that aren't falsifiable?) that led to the voluntary recognition of rights

[06:10:08] tr [T] <+login> what was that link to the math blog about falsifiability

[06:11:15] tr [T] <+login> yes

[06:11:21] tr [T] <+login> Mikoolo: welcome to work!

[06:11:37] tr [T] <+login> I think Mikoolo mentioned it

[06:11:51] tr [T] <+login> about the negation of a negation not being the same as the thing

[06:12:31] tr [T] <+login> yes, i thought it was you

[06:12:39] tr [T] <+login> but when you asked which one, i thought i had misremembered

[06:13:30] tr [T] <+login> isn't science a bit religious too?

[06:13:34] tr [T] <+login> They call it Science

[06:13:55] tr [T] <+login> nobody checks, lots of fraud

[06:14:48] tr [T] <+login> it's ponzi schemes within ponzi schemes

[06:15:13] tr [T] <+login> one big multigenerational ponzi scheme that is predicated on a growing world population

[06:15:58] tr [T] <+login> nein

[06:16:49] tr [T] <+login> what's the plastic thing into which a screw screws?

[06:23:11] tr [T] <+login> existentess?

[06:29:47] tr [T] <+login> it's none of those

[06:29:52] tr [T] <+login> but you did link some of those before

[06:30:13] tr [T] <+login> actually, it was https://math.andrej.com/2010/03/29/proof-of-negation-and-proof-by-contradiction/

[06:35:29] tr [T] <+login> narr structure = narrative structure?

[06:36:29] tr [T] <+login> i am an NPC ski, i got it

[06:42:10] tr [T] <+login> where is your wildlife photography website to order prints?

[06:43:33] tr [T] <+login> in an alternate universe, you could be a zoologist

[06:47:15] tr [T] <+login> it might be the pylink

[06:53:18] tr [T] <+login> Anybody here use Usenet?

[06:55:02] tr [T] <+login> but he will remain the chief vision officer

[07:36:50] tr [T] <+login> i took too long to understand what japanese "scientific" art meant

[07:37:31] tr [T] <+login> Mikoolo: even if you returned a toiletpaper later, it would technically be criminal conversion

[07:38:02] tr [T] <+login> there are a lot of criminals -> another antimeme

[07:38:28] tr [T] <+login> criminology is an interesting field of study

[07:45:45] tr [T] <+login> do cops ask that?

[07:46:16] tr [T] <+login> it's one of those things where there is no visibility into the true prevalence rate

[07:46:34] tr [T] <+login> if you pirate a movie, isn't that a crime too?

[07:48:07] tr [T] <+login> some stored, some streamed to me, some streamed by me to a (public) server that a few people on irc open in vlc

[07:48:19] tr [T] <+login> that last one, i haven't done in a long time

[07:51:41] tr [T] <+login> it's like uncle sam owns equity on it - to be collecting a cut

[07:51:44] tr [T] <+login> *in it

[07:53:15] tr [T] <+login> does the US get a cut on the above-market sales of dvds and cds?

[08:49:12] tr [T] <+login> why didn't someone re-arm Gentoo?

[09:12:43] tr [T] <+login> the estate is suing, Gentoo

[16:36:47] tr [T] <&term99> people so butt hurt over a phone choice, so funny, lol

[16:36:58] tr [T] <&term99> :) <3

[16:37:18] tr [T] <&term99> so rude

[16:37:38] tr [T] <&term99> so negative

[16:51:50] tr [T] <&phonekait> h4/rizon: you're just mad cause people prefer my features to yours.

[16:52:20] tr [T] <&phonekait> I don't need to advertise. My body does it for me.

[16:52:46] tr [T] <&phonekait> Your ass is no different from your mouth seeing as shit comes from both ends.

[16:53:12] tr [T] <&phonekait> Syndus/rizon: !

[16:53:27] tr [T] <&phonekait> Too late, I already stroked myself this morning

[16:53:29] tr [T] <&phonekait> ;)

[16:53:48] tr [T] <&phonekait> Thought of pissing you off while doing it too.

[17:48:16] tr [T] <+ChanRank> (ChanRank): srx47 is an idler or unknown...

[18:26:29] tr [S] * @Dragon exists

[18:56:25] tr [T] <&phonekait> deadly/rizon: you fucking tosspot.

[18:56:55] tr [T] <&phonekait> h4/rizon: suck a dick

[22:41:26] tr [T] <~therock247uk> with coke mostly never tried it neat

[22:50:35] tr [T] * ~therock247uk steals all off ComputerTechs sprits :D

[23:48:08] tr [T] <~therock247uk> webpanel for?

[23:48:31] tr [T] <~therock247uk> nice
