IRC Driven

[01:17:46] ski/rizon Kowal : try without colors ?

[04:50:45] ski/rizon would #MP3_Christmas be having CTCP commands or whathaveyou, for playing tunes and jingles ?

[04:55:52] ski/rizon the latter

[04:56:35] ski/rizon (i've been in some channels where i think there were some CTCPs for playing MIDIs or WAVs .. although that didn't work in my client. perhaps it was mIRC-specific, dunno)

[04:57:15] ski/rizon (there are also some which have a link to a webradio stream thing, with updates in the channel when a new tune starts)

[04:57:29] ski/rizon /ctcp ski version

[05:00:52] ski/rizon i suspect not

[05:02:08] ski/rizon why do you want to punish yourself ?

[05:03:13] ski/rizon (i've not even heard it, but i already have some kind of idea of what it might be like .. maybe i'm associating too much with "Crazy Frog" or other similar ear torture, though)

[05:04:46] ski/rizon (even "Boten Anna" is stretching it, for me .. at least it's about IRC, though)

[05:07:04] ski/rizon RichBum : is that related to the Matrix chatting platform ?

[05:14:28] ski/rizon (is that Macaroni, Kuro-chan ? i don't recognize the others)

[05:15:19] ski/rizon no idea what POEC is

[05:15:35] ski/rizon (nor what those protestors might be protesting)

[05:16:26] ski/rizon oh, maybe that isn't Macaroni then, but the other guy .. can't recall his name, atm

[05:17:12] ski/rizon (er, the canadian one .. not sure if he's quebequois or not)

[05:17:20] ski/rizon mhm

[05:18:13] ski/rizon "sell it as a joke", meaning ?

[05:21:29] ski/rizon well, i guess politicians tend to be apt at such things (dodging)

[05:29:35] ski/rizon ooc, how long has this inquiry been under way ?

[05:31:43] ski/rizon well, that's what Mike thought

[05:33:31] ski/rizon margarita, is that like a diminutive form of margarine ?

[05:34:06] ski/rizon why would the bartender need an age check ?

[05:34:18] ski/rizon the bartender isn't supposed to be drinking anyway, no ?

[05:35:15] ski/rizon but no need to verify themselves, surely

[05:37:01] ski/rizon she grew tired of the backstabbing and scheming among the other employees, so she quit, moved out on the countryside, lived in a tent, and grew vegetables, and kept chickens (selling eggs)

[05:38:22] ski/rizon .. although, she found out that there were people at the farmer's market who were doing shady things, and didn't like her pointing it out, complaining about it

[05:40:37] ski/rizon she also had a "Bonnie" who'd gone sailing, alone, over the oceans (she'd refused to accompany at the time), and at the time i was chatting with her, she was worried sick about him, realizing she cared more about him than she had thought. she only heard about him, indirectly, through his family, the few times he'd been ashore in ports, and had withdrawn some money from bank accounts

[05:42:45] ski/rizon last i heard, he'd safely arrived on the west coast, and she'd driven across the country for a few days to meet up with him, and then they were going to spend the winter on his boat, up north somewhere. that was, hm .. i think three years ago, though. lost contact with her

[05:45:13] ski/rizon you do "meet" some quite interesting people, over the years chatting

[05:45:28] ski/rizon only a few people can use `rearm'

[05:47:12] ski/rizon on this side at least, PapaFrog was clearly ahead of AshBear

[05:47:55] ski/rizon (although there's strictly speaking not a single consistent total ordering of time, on IRC (with multiple servers) .. but in this case, i suspect all servers would agree about the ordering)

[05:48:40] ski/rizon we believe you, AshBear

[05:49:00] ski/rizon (are you maybe on wifi ?)

[05:50:27] ski/rizon yep

[05:53:50] ski/rizon Kuro-chan : loaves ?

[05:54:32] ski/rizon that's grate

[05:56:19] ski/rizon mix ingredients, let it sit for a while (if using yeast) before putting in oven

[05:56:54] ski/rizon scones is easy to make, tastes good, freshly baked, with butter and cheese. or marmelade and cheese

[05:58:15] ski/rizon some spices you can try in bread dough : anise, cumin, fennel, powdered orange/pomerans peels

[05:59:05] ski/rizon no idea

[05:59:20] ski/rizon sometimes cumin is used in cheese

[06:04:46] ski/rizon .quote search diarrhea

[06:04:54] ski/rizon .quote read 233

[06:06:23] ski/rizon money

[06:07:22] ski/rizon AshBear : anyway, i would probably suggest trying something easy, like scones, to begin with

[06:07:41] ski/rizon or cupcakes or whatever

[06:07:54] ski/rizon good

[06:09:04] ski/rizon mixing it yourself is more fun

[06:09:12] ski/rizon (and you know what's in it)

[06:11:19] ski/rizon (nor in soup, cooked desserts)

[06:11:54] ski/rizon wossat, RichBum ?

[06:13:05] ski/rizon what if her and you could bake at the same time, wouldn't that be satisfactorially for them, AshBear ?

[06:14:07] ski/rizon hm, interestin, RichBum

[06:14:47] ski/rizon they ought to start letting you take on more responsibility, gradually, AshBear

[06:15:13] ski/rizon .. did any disastrous accidents happen, in the past ?

[06:16:47] ski/rizon i was supposed to boil water, for tea, but forgot about it

[06:17:34] ski/rizon (well, it didn't melt completely. but the bottom melted partially, got deformed)

[06:18:34] ski/rizon sure, AshBear :)

[06:20:04] ski/rizon i mean, it sounded like you were maybe incredulous about it

[06:22:04] ski/rizon (the ones we make over here has no baking powder. they're more akin to french crêpes. usually i make them maybe two to three millimetres thick, and with generous fat, so they become more crisp than soggy)

[06:22:58] ski/rizon would you like to ?

[06:23:52] ski/rizon maybe try reading a book, while lying down, perhaps also listening to relaxing, soft, music

[06:23:57] ski/rizon 07:23

[06:24:07] ski/rizon yup

[06:24:44] ski/rizon do you have insomnia, at times ?

[06:26:53] ski/rizon (makes no sense to me, can never seem to recall the rule)

[06:27:26] ski/rizon here we usually state times in 24-hours .. except when speaking colloquially ("i'll meet you seven in the evening, okay ?")

[06:28:04] ski/rizon europe

[06:28:38] ski/rizon well, it's pretty near here

[06:28:48] ski/rizon Daylight Savings Time

[06:29:22] ski/rizon yea .. especially teenagers need more sleep in the mornings

[06:30:14] ski/rizon you know, when we lose an hour, in the spring, more people die of heart problems, at that time

[06:30:32] ski/rizon my mother always complains for at least a month after that

[06:31:30] ski/rizon (she's a night owl, like me. claims they're stealing her precious morning sleep, when she sleeps best .. well, when she was still working, that is. now she sometimes sleeps even until noon)

[06:32:46] ski/rizon some people have naturally longer circadian rhythms than others. they've done experiments with keeping people in caves, not letting them know whether it's day or night, and seeing how long a "day and night" they'll naturally stabilize towards

[06:33:04] ski/rizon in the fall/autumn, yes

[06:34:05] ski/rizon iirc (it was years since i heard about this, on some documentary), there was at least an hour difference, between some people, and some other people

[06:35:33] ski/rizon i've heard it called "A people" and "B peaople". the former being the early birds, and the latter the night owls

[06:36:17] ski/rizon where it's been argued that much in (western modern) society is accomodated for A people, not taking the needs of B people into account too much

[06:38:04] ski/rizon i can well imagine that

[06:38:37] ski/rizon being up at dawn can also be nice, if you get to watch it. i rarely do, though

[06:41:39] ski/rizon try

[06:41:40] ski/rizon https://web.archive.org/web/20020307235626/http://ars.userfriendly.org/cartoons/?id=19991208&mode=classic

[06:41:44] ski/rizon ?

[06:47:53] ski/rizon https://ibb.co/PGWVKWL

[06:47:56] ski/rizon AshBear ^

[06:49:04] ski/rizon tranquil is like a still body of water. serene, silent, untouched

[06:49:55] ski/rizon RichBum : .. sevenfold ?

[06:50:35] ski/rizon "rotisseried" sounds like a salad, to me

[06:53:14] ski/rizon this gal had a favorite chicken, called Pearl. it'd often come up and sit in her lap

[06:53:50] ski/rizon she was also using the chicken poop as extra fertilizer, for the vegetable crops

[06:56:04] ski/rizon AshBear : i imagine you mean like your mind was pretty still, not rushing around to a multitude of things all the time, not worrying about stuff, nor thinking about what you'll be doing shortly, nor something more stressful or exciting that happened in the past

[06:57:53] ski/rizon actually being present

[06:58:42] ski/rizon it's rare to get it that much, i think

[06:59:15] ski/rizon (although i think it's possible to make it more likely)

[07:12:27] ski/rizon hope it goes well

[07:14:48] ski/rizon gn, RichBum, pleasant dreams

[07:18:28] ski/rizon Rizon is up

[07:19:13] ski/rizon someone mentioned something about having trouble connecting to TechNet, a few hours ago .. dunno what was up with that

[14:47:25] ski/rizon meow

[15:52:08] ski/rizon moin

[15:54:21] ski/rizon whose ?

[15:54:50] ski/rizon who's that ?

[15:55:04] ski/rizon oh. ty

[15:55:12] ski/rizon ehlo Rob

[15:55:24] ski/rizon the sky

[15:56:50] ski/rizon never hanged from a tree branch, with your legs ?

[16:04:05] ski/rizon +please tell ComputerTech this

[16:04:15] ski/rizon (.. worked ?)

[16:07:31] ski/rizon +later tell Komputer +tell ComputerTech does this work now ?

[16:07:54] ski/rizon that's a weak bot that can't do that

[16:09:47] ski/rizon (it did have a "hug" command, iirc)

[16:25:07] ski/rizon >botsnack

[16:25:21] ski/rizon >hug AshBear

[16:25:46] ski/rizon >spank ComputerTech

[16:26:07] ski/rizon >bug Komputer

[16:27:01] ski/rizon and heya, Ahsoka :)

[16:27:21] ski/rizon remove trailing space at end of command, Ahsoka

[16:27:47] ski/rizon (haven't fixed that yet. it thinks you're passing two nicks, the second of length zero)

[16:30:33] ski/rizon meow

[16:30:49] ski/rizon mew

[16:30:56] ski/rizon hello h4 :)

[16:38:43] ski/rizon later, h4

[16:40:40] ski/rizon >botsmack

[17:51:44] ski/rizon >bug AshBear

[19:01:51] ski/rizon there's some kind of sports event going on ?

[19:02:56] ski/rizon wir kriegt Eierkrieg

[19:08:17] ski/rizon apparently you're allowed to drink alcohol (in bars), just not at the stadium (without express exception permission)

[19:08:45] ski/rizon yes, ComputerTech

[19:09:10] ski/rizon >botsmack

[19:09:47] ski/rizon as i mentioned before, it was my bot

[19:10:35] ski/rizon (didn't intend to keep it here. i was just reminded of it, by something AshBear said, so i brought it in, at that time, a few hours ago)

[19:11:43] ski/rizon ComputerTech : got that ?

[19:12:05] ski/rizon no worry

[19:12:21] ski/rizon no worry, i said :)

[19:13:24] ski/rizon (some of its auto-responses (mostly when someone mentions its nickname, or there's a greeting word .. or ACTIONs (which it occasionally reacts to)) can be a bit annoying, in a more active channel, i grant)

[19:16:38] ski/rizon h4 : might be meant as "shakira" ?

[21:38:49] ski/rizon (perhaps Saphir is on a secret mission to the Maldives, atm)

[21:40:05] ski/rizon well, if you were, you wouldn't acknowledge it, right ? :)

[23:02:05] ski/rizon no banquet today

[23:06:19] ski/rizon maybe t'morn ?

[23:06:31] ski/rizon who ?

[23:09:05] ski/rizon (is this the pk that was mentioned earlier ?)

[23:09:45] ski/rizon (not that i feel particularly inclined, to, either ..)

[23:11:58] ski/rizon tiger is a chatter ?

[23:32:44] ski/rizon Jesus liked chicken ?

[23:32:54] ski/rizon figured he was more of a fish person

[23:34:56] ski/rizon why, thank you

[23:42:01] ski/rizon i doubt Gumba Gumba actually wrote that last sentence

[23:43:32] ski/rizon how does Gumba Gumba know Velociraptor ?

[23:46:05] ski/rizon oh .. i stand corrected

[23:46:48] ski/rizon curious

[23:49:07] ski/rizon (i guess i was fooled by it also mentioning "tiger")
