[03:19:03] login is the nickname dog_whistle itself a dog whistle?

[03:19:11] login or is that the metameme?

[03:22:56] login > wawut - ;)

[03:23:32] login are there flies on it?

[03:23:53] login If even the flies are avoiding it, there must be something sus about it

[03:24:21] login chickens eating fish is just not what nature intended

[03:24:56] login it would be like feeding chicken breast to a dolphin

[03:33:19] login bats are not birds though

[03:33:42] login the taxonomy is different

[03:42:59] login but they don't lay eggs

[03:49:41] login imagine just saying chill out, dog_whistle

[03:50:10] login I have a joke that you might find insulting, may I say it, ComputerTech?

[03:50:50] login Alright, there is only a single line from C.T. to E.T.

[03:51:16] login could replace 'line' with 'stroke' for more effect

[03:52:28] login i thought E.T. stood for extraterrestrial

[03:53:02] login is terrarium a being living on the ground?

[03:53:36] login oh, i understand now

[03:54:19] login an experiment in the possibility of mutual peace?

[03:55:00] login animals have many diseases

[03:55:10] login and close contact with them can lead to novel diseases passing to the person

[03:55:45] login I read a thread on twitter about it

[03:55:54] login some person who lived like a vagabond for 5 years

[03:56:15] login not full wilderness, but no stable home - as a lifestyle choice

[03:57:24] login i don't have first-hand knowledge of this, but based on a reddit/r/nosleep story, that can lead to misfolded proteins causing havoc

[03:58:09] login prion diseases

[04:01:07] login yeah, animal husbandry is dangerous stuff

[04:01:25] login i guess the most riskless job is analysing risk: the job of an actuary

[04:01:56] login yeah, these kinds of laws and regulations were passed for a reason

[04:03:16] login did the law manage to prevent future deaths of pets and cows?

[04:05:39] login how many people on here will know what eigenvalues are and how to determine numerical stability?

[04:07:36] login i had a unit in university which was "optimisation, estimation and numerical methods"

[04:09:29] login did you read the qntm.org/responsibilit story?

[04:10:06] login it might be a fun story

[04:22:09] login Do people keep track of their ammo?

[04:22:15] login or do they find out after pressing the trigger?

[04:23:05] login or does the gun indicate to the user in some way that it is empty

[04:26:34] login time to get ready for the day

[04:26:46] login with a morning walk

[04:27:01] login how do you debug? stack trace?

[04:34:23] login but this is a special situation, because the game which was written for the web is being compiled into an exe through re-written code

[04:34:52] login i forgot the exact architecture, but i don't know if google would have much on that indexed

[04:47:10] login I'm not one to tell others how to live their life, but from my own care for ComputerTech, I think he is developing an unhealthy relationship with alcohol

[04:48:47] login I don't tell people in real life that

[04:50:11] login My thinking is, alcohol is for post-retirement

[04:50:23] login it can be enjoyed just the same after retiring

[04:50:58] login and drugs are the last thing to enjoy, in the last few years of one's life

[04:51:29] login it can ruin one's life though

[04:51:41] login such as?

[04:52:43] login good hit, got the golden duck in 3 shots

[04:52:53] login so a duck with life 3

[04:53:14] login The game is broken if so many sounds attract another duck

[04:53:33] login it was luck ^

[04:54:27] login i wonder why the irish are called lucky?

[04:54:42] login i have no idea of the folklore, but have only heard of the four-leaved clover

[04:57:37] login is milkers a double entendre?

[04:57:53] login i guess it was

[04:59:19] login > if you yearn for the mines then get in here and chill like a megachillzoneruwuwuw... ?

[04:59:40] login my understanding of that stream is, the woman is just rocking in her chair

[05:00:07] login someone else is speaking, and the game is someone else's recording playing runescape?

[05:00:16] login and someone else is on the keyboard replying

[05:01:21] login i swear, this looks like a tate-type operation

[05:03:39] login no, i mean he's involved in getting a percentage of the money

[05:04:14] login Dr_DICK: lol, does 'tates' have two meanings here?

[05:05:56] login yeah, aussies are a lot into it too

[05:06:16] login but getting drunk-drunk every weekend isn't good

[05:06:35] login a couple of drinks is different from blacking out

[05:06:54] login that's good

[05:10:20] login it's a slippery slope

[05:10:53] login it's good to enjoy, but if it affects your health or daily life, then there's a risk there

[05:11:10] login well, depends on how much you enjoy it vs. the altered "you"

[05:11:51] login it's a lot like soft drinks + losing your balance

[05:12:59] login the manufacturers have discovered the 'starters'

[05:13:16] login start with 0%, go up i nthe future

[05:14:41] login what's the difference between the 0% and the 2.5% other than eventual dizziness?

[05:15:02] login is the loosening of inhibitions the fun part?

[05:15:28] login i thought most people had a drink with their mates because it makes it easier to socialise

[05:15:35] login (or so they imagine)

[05:17:04] login it's just the weekend - time to loosen up with friends

[05:17:57] login as long as you dilute it to keep yourself to a limit

[05:18:53] login say you're getting a standard drink, but pour 10% of that and dilute the rest

[05:19:35] login seltzer water

[05:19:42] login 22nd century water

[05:20:15] login it's part of the culture of socialisation

[05:20:32] login what can one do? it's big business in the UK

[05:20:50] login i bet the actual breweries have an above-average representation of those who don't drink at all

[05:21:22] login gaming addiction is similar - video games are quite similar to gambling nowadays

[05:22:45] login the bank account is just another number app (it's just the one the gov asks you to delete a certain amount from every year by sending it to their 0x00 HMRC address)

[05:23:54] login If they ban it for kids, then adults should stay away from it too

[05:28:38] login voting, driving, guns, gambling, alcohol, sin industry basically

[05:29:01] login smoking

[05:31:48] login i mean, even eating a lot of food was considered a sin a long time ago (gluttony)

[05:34:03] login !bang

[05:35:08] login if each magazine costs me 20 xp, and i get 10 xp from each duck, then how much profit per duck?

[10:06:21] login Mikoolo: how're you doing?

[10:07:38] login hello herald

[11:30:57] login Asians gamble a LOT

[11:40:24] login from light??

[12:26:45] login Ahsoka: unwanted touching is battery/assault - even booping their nose

[12:28:22] login yeah, violation of bodily integrity

[12:28:29] login would the court also dismiss a butt grab?

[12:28:50] login hand hold?

[12:29:17] login what about leers? those would disturb the peace too right?

[12:29:38] login or staring even if it isn't a leer

[12:29:48] login that would definitely set people off though

[12:30:09] login staring and following, especially

[12:30:50] login would it be stalking if it's for 10-15 minutes at a time per person, and then one chooses a different person?

[12:31:15] login that kind of stuff is very scary, but what kind of offence would it be

[12:31:41] login 10-15 mins seems persistent to me

[12:31:59] login do you see yourself in their eyes?

[12:32:13] login so it's legal even though it's troublesome

[12:32:39] login and the public-transport stares... those are the worst

[12:34:25] login does your public transport system have 'don't stare, it's rude' signs?

[12:34:42] login or it says 'be cool, be respectful'

[12:34:48] login just knowing life?

[12:35:23] login yeah
