IRC Driven

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

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

[02:55:44] ski/rizon (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/rizon 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/rizon 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/rizon well, "work", more as in the culture around it, rather than the technical details

[03:07:11] ski/rizon you don't like being happy ?

[03:08:26] ski/rizon a stereotype of whom ?

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

[03:10:30] ski/rizon it's a balance

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

[03:15:40] ski/rizon 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/rizon ah, ty, Peorth

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

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

[03:30:33] ski/rizon who ?

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

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

[03:32:44] ski/rizon sounds pretty involved/advanced, nitecore

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

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

[03:35:40] ski/rizon 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/rizon (i think most i know about M-16 (?) is from a Tomb Raider game)

[03:42:03] ski/rizon yea

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

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

[03:58:12] ski/rizon good night, pleasant dreams, irish666

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

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

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

[04:04:54] ski/rizon <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Njals_saga>,<https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Long_Ships>

[04:05:03] ski/rizon both good books

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

[04:06:18] ski/rizon 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/rizon sounds interesting

[04:15:09] ski/rizon (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/rizon ok

[05:42:44] ski/rizon beep

[05:53:37] ski/rizon pebkac ?

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

[05:59:35] ski/rizon 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/rizon 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/rizon 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/rizon ah, apparently the bird in question was the Dodo

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

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

[14:09:50] ski/rizon oi

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

[14:10:52] ski/rizon ici

[14:11:48] ski/rizon why Espereranto ?

[14:12:06] ski/rizon Lojban ?

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

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

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

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

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

[14:14:54] ski/rizon i see, MagicSkyGod

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

[14:21:26] ski/rizon good

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

[14:22:12] ski/rizon anarchists

[14:22:58] ski/rizon 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/rizon Bakunin critisized Marx in the International, predicting parts of what happened in Russia

[14:24:45] ski/rizon (one could also argue that Nietszche predicted parts of the 1900s century)

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

[19:46:18] ski/rizon bonjour

[19:47:15] ski/rizon die sushichen

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

[19:50:24] ski/rizon huh

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

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

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

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

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

[19:58:43] ski/rizon 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/rizon 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/rizon 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/rizon 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/rizon some people are quite physical, and need to be taught proper rules of conduct

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

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

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

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

[20:17:42] ski/rizon 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/rizon sushi-chan : if you do feel a need to back off for a while, to cool down, that's fine

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

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

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

[20:25:12] ski/rizon 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/rizon i think ComputerTech may be studying ?

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

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

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

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

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

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

[20:35:00] ski/rizon (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)

[20:37:26] ski/rizon ehlo Fred

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

[20:39:09] ski/rizon lovely

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

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

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

[20:44:19] ski/rizon yep, nowadays

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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