[00:40:58] ski/rizon inf

[03:15:46] ski/rizon into a tree ?

[03:21:00] ski/rizon meow

[03:23:39] ski/rizon apparently chickens also like tuna

[03:26:14] ski/rizon penguins also dive and swim in the sea .. so, technically, they're fish ?

[03:26:46] ski/rizon (just like dophins, orcas, whales. and just like bats are birds)

[03:41:39] ski/rizon login : by the old definition ("Things that fly, and are not insects, are birds."), they are

[03:46:42] ski/rizon login : well, that's a detail

[03:46:54] ski/rizon also fish lay eggs. and Platypuses

[03:48:53] ski/rizon (noone tell him that it's empty)

[03:51:57] ski/rizon .. are you trying to say the "T" in "CT" really stands for "Terrarium" ?

[03:52:41] ski/rizon hm .. maybe !

[03:53:18] ski/rizon it's a container, for animals living on the ground

[03:53:31] ski/rizon like an aquarium is one, for animals living in water

[03:53:43] ski/rizon commonly it would also have glass walls

[03:53:56] ski/rizon could you offer CT a home in one of them, MatCat ?

[03:54:03] ski/rizon (and would you ?)

[03:54:33] ski/rizon or a mutual piece (of mind ?)

[03:55:10] ski/rizon i'm not aware of terraria big enough for a flock-o'-sheep

[03:55:45] ski/rizon .. now i'm wondering if there might be diseases which enter the body through the navel

[03:56:40] ski/rizon there was a tribe who lived in a valley, on Papua New Guinea. they used to each the brains of their passed away relatives. (for some reason, especially the women seemed to be into this)

[03:57:46] ski/rizon however, they started contracting a prior disease, similar to scrapie (which comes from eating sheep brain. similar to Jacob-Creutzfeld's disease, "Mad Cow disease", which you may contract, from eating cow brain .. probably also other ganglia in the body, like in bone marrow)

[03:58:49] ski/rizon over here, there was a cat owner, whose cat got sick (maybe passed away, can't recall). anyway, the owner figured out it was because they put ground up cadavers (including bones and brains) from the meat processing into cat and dog food

[03:59:38] ski/rizon there were articles written about this, and eventually a law was passed, which outlawed this practice. this was just a few years before the outbreak of mad cow's disease, starting in the U.K. .. because of this, that was never a big problem over here

[04:00:19] ski/rizon login : yes, prionic diseases

[04:01:21] ski/rizon (oh, they also put that meat processing, into food for cattle, btw. that was also stopped by the law)

[04:03:54] ski/rizon yep, for the most part

[04:04:32] ski/rizon (one might think that it might be obvious to not feed a special of animals dead parts from the same species .. but apparently not)

[04:06:24] ski/rizon .. presumably a vanishingly small, maybe infinitesimal, fraction, of the population distribution in here

[04:07:55] ski/rizon (but it might be interesting to think about how much a glitch change would affect the matrix .. and, for a change in the matrix, how big the corresponding change in the glitch causing it would be)

[04:09:41] ski/rizon hm, i don't think so ?

[04:09:50] ski/rizon (can't recall seeing that link before)

[04:09:57] ski/rizon hm

[04:11:07] ski/rizon (it might've been mentioned, around the time people were coming in daily in a programming channel, claimg the end was nigh, that the AI apocalypse was over us)

[04:17:52] ski/rizon well, congrats in that case, mrinfinity

[04:19:50] ski/rizon oh

[07:39:20] ski/rizon bonjour

[07:39:25] ski/rizon hehe :)

[07:40:17] ski/rizon do rascals make a racket ?

[07:41:37] ski/rizon (btw, sushi-chan. it's okay to be down, at times. we don't just like to talk to you when you've had coffee, is up)

[07:42:23] ski/rizon it is a "language calculator/predictor"

[07:43:01] ski/rizon it's like an average of what internet people in general (in the data it's been fed with) would answer

[07:43:19] ski/rizon and it usually does sound very confident about what it's saying, even if it's completely wrong

[07:43:23] ski/rizon (or subtly wrong)

[07:44:06] ski/rizon i've seen someone trip it up with something like `1 + 1 + 1 + 1 + 1 + 1 + 1 + 1 + 1 + 1 + 1'

[07:44:15] ski/rizon it gave the wrong answer

[07:45:25] ski/rizon sushi-chan : that's a cute bedtime story :P

[07:46:23] ski/rizon herald : a couple of weeks ago, there was an influx of people insisting that it would soon make every programmer, or at least most of them, superfluous

[07:46:30] ski/rizon herald : in a programming channel, i mean

[07:47:05] ski/rizon herald : you can't believe people would imagine such things ?

[07:47:14] ski/rizon sushi-chan : how did you get GPT to generate the story ?

[07:47:54] ski/rizon sushi-chan : where did you drop it ?

[07:48:21] ski/rizon herald : ah, right. sorry, you generated it. how ?

[07:48:59] ski/rizon herald : mhm

[07:50:20] ski/rizon herald : yea .. haven't really been interested enough to try

[07:50:33] ski/rizon sure, sushi-chan :)

[07:50:45] ski/rizon NiniGeo2 : .. you don't say ?

[07:51:14] ski/rizon (there's also <https://chanstat.net/stats/rizon/%23computertech>)

[07:52:00] ski/rizon sushi-chan keeps her spiders in the closet

[07:52:23] ski/rizon yeap

[07:52:50] ski/rizon do you have many robes in it ?

[07:53:04] ski/rizon oh, they get in there ?

[07:53:42] ski/rizon sushi-chan : oh, did i mention i saw a spider here, a few days ago ?

[07:54:00] ski/rizon sushi-chan : it came walking on my desk, suddenly (while i was sitting in a dark room)

[07:54:23] ski/rizon sushi-chan : it was maybe two to three centimetres long (with legs). i captured it with a cup, and a newspaper, then ran to throw it out

[07:54:30] ski/rizon no

[07:54:37] ski/rizon a thicker/meatier one

[07:55:15] ski/rizon although maybe a few weeks ago, i also had one of those long-legged cellar-type spiders lower itself in a thread just in front of my face

[07:55:35] ski/rizon (i captured the thread with something, and carefully carried it out, when it was hanging on its thread)

[07:56:02] ski/rizon do spiders kill monsters, though ?

[07:56:21] ski/rizon as long as they stay in their corner, i'm fine with them

[07:56:43] ski/rizon i remember one time i chased a fly into its web. the spider was quick to catch it

[07:57:16] ski/rizon sushi-chan is the spider lady

[07:57:49] ski/rizon sushi-chan : did you see the pic beside your name, at <http://stats.computertech.co/> ?

[08:00:48] ski/rizon did you know that, when you do that, you don't primarily become less scared, you become more courageous ?

[08:01:21] ski/rizon you learn you can tolerate things, can handle them

[08:01:43] ski/rizon (and as a result, you can also become more courageous, in other areas)

[08:02:35] ski/rizon of course, in your case, your aversal to arachnides turned into its opposite, too

[08:03:03] ski/rizon (voluntary exposure to things, in small doses)

[08:03:15] ski/rizon which stats ?

[08:03:17] ski/rizon oh

[08:03:30] ski/rizon i think it's generated by some bot

[08:03:55] ski/rizon <https://chanstat.net/stats/rizon/%23computertech> too .. but that one uses slightly different settings, in how it presents stats

[08:04:23] ski/rizon "Another lonely one was Computertech, who managed to hit 2067 times"

[08:05:26] ski/rizon although, maybe the <http://stats.computertech.co/> is a bit outdated

[08:05:33] ski/rizon good night, pleasant dreams, sushi-chan

[08:05:54] ski/rizon oh, sorry i misread

[08:06:30] ski/rizon (so i might be slightly incoherent, at times, i guess)

[08:06:43] ski/rizon stupid answer

[08:06:55] ski/rizon that's bad for your help

[08:07:08] ski/rizon if you don't sleep for too long, you can die, yes

[08:07:46] ski/rizon also, you start having microsleep. sleeping a few seconds at a time. even when walking. i've experienced this

[08:08:03] ski/rizon and, yes, i also saw dream imagery combined with what i saw with eyes

[08:08:17] ski/rizon i had been awake more than 48 hours

[08:08:21] ski/rizon i was walking home

[08:08:34] ski/rizon i fell asleep, kept walking, with my eyes open

[08:08:57] ski/rizon then woke up, wondered where i was. then started falling asleep again, confusing dream imagery with surroundings

[08:09:00] ski/rizon repeat

[08:09:11] ski/rizon yes, i hadn't drunk alcohol

[08:09:19] ski/rizon and i don't think i've ever been drunk

[08:09:30] ski/rizon here, Niameme ?

[08:10:37] ski/rizon i think some brain disorders can make it hard to sleep

[08:10:53] ski/rizon and i think i heard about someone who was unable to sleep, for a month or so

[08:10:59] ski/rizon but that's very rare, i think

[08:11:33] ski/rizon even if you sleep, but don't dream, that's usually bad

[08:11:43] ski/rizon (e.g. if you're woken up, every time you start dreaming)

[08:12:11] ski/rizon (most people dream every night. but very many remember almost none of those dreams)

[08:16:56] ski/rizon take care, sushi-chan

[15:27:54] ski/rizon Mikoolo looked to be first, from this end, fwiw

[15:30:15] ski/rizon earlier, apparently

[15:30:47] ski/rizon hm, now dove

[15:30:49] ski/rizon npot

[15:30:53] ski/rizon rook

[15:31:00] ski/rizon yah

[15:31:11] ski/rizon key west

[15:35:18] ski/rizon grüß gott

[15:35:41] ski/rizon .. i guess

[15:36:00] ski/rizon maybe others who want to be protected, should come and ask you for protection, h4

[15:36:20] ski/rizon yes, same thing

[15:37:15] ski/rizon hasn't been here, much, i think

[15:38:03] ski/rizon because of the car name ?

[15:39:50] ski/rizon hm, opping h4 didn't work

[15:40:15] ski/rizon (oh .. missed reopped)

[15:41:45] ski/rizon congrats, h4

[15:42:35] ski/rizon "Taiwan 'Hulk' rampages in 7-11 over protein snack | Taiwan News | 2023-05-21 10:52:00>" was the title

[15:42:59] ski/rizon but i doubt h4 would rampage over protein snacks

[15:43:38] ski/rizon yournamehere : .. ooh, that sounds interesting, now

[15:45:37] ski/rizon reminds me of some island, in the kuril island archipelago line, which doesn't have Phaenogamae (plants with flowers), just Cryptogamae (fern-like plant) .. including trees

[15:46:52] ski/rizon yournamehere : do you remember that it's called ?

[15:47:18] ski/rizon yournamehere : i would imagine it's only visitable for people with special permission, like botanist researches, &c.

[15:47:34] ski/rizon my brother visited Jan Mayen .. needed special permission for that, iirc

[15:47:43] ski/rizon also Spetsbergen

[15:47:59] ski/rizon yep

[15:48:39] ski/rizon you're required to have with you an arm, like a rifle, if you go out from the settlements, there

[15:49:09] ski/rizon yournamehere : also Wrangel's island would be neat, i think

[15:49:44] ski/rizon i remember watching a documentary, from Kamchatka, about a "bear man", who's walk up to wild bears, and greet them, for many years

[15:50:23] ski/rizon .. hm, now i wonder how clove is related to clover

[15:51:16] ski/rizon yournamehere : fwiw, my brother is a botanist

[15:52:05] ski/rizon hexadecimal is based

[15:52:15] ski/rizon (and sexagesimal)

[15:53:45] ski/rizon er, sorry, it was actually the other one

[15:54:21] ski/rizon the Latin Bardcore versions of those two, are quite nice

[15:54:39] ski/rizon they's singing in latin, like medieval bards. plucking their string instruments

[15:55:21] ski/rizon (reminds me there's also an inn, in Conker's Bad Fur Day, named The Cock & Plucker)

[15:59:03] ski/rizon Unum Duo Tria Quattuor Quinque Sex Septem Octo Novem Finis

[16:00:40] ski/rizon Ab omnibus expectatur lux Timete, nolite timere Sol effulget oculis meis Non descendit hodie Mundus Numerat in decem

[16:01:43] ski/rizon Huc sol advenit Huc sol advenit Clarissima stella stellarum Huc sol advenit

[16:02:53] ski/rizon Sol effulget manibus meis Potest cermare, vos caecare Et lux effulgens expugno Jacét in visu calida

[16:05:42] ski/rizon Nec descendit hodie Denuo mundus numerat Unum Huc sol advenit Duo Huc sol advenit Tria Clarissima stella stellarum Quattuor Huc sol advenit Quinque Huc sol advenit Sex Huc sol advenit Septem Clarissima stella stellarum Octo Novem! Huc sol advenit

[16:05:48] ski/rizon of course i do, Mikoolo :)

[16:06:27] ski/rizon (well, probably enough of lyrics from that one, in here. you get the point)

[16:08:38] ski/rizon (hm, "of course you do" reminds me of the Duchess, in "Alice: Madness Returns", when she was talking about how pig snouts makes everything better, wondering whether Alice also thought so)

[16:14:56] ski/rizon that one kinda reminds me of the third comic album of "Les Compagnons du Crepuscule" ("The Companions of Twilight") by François Bourgeon, being "Le Dernier Chant des Malaterre" ("The Last Song of the Malaterres"), Mikoolo .. the story takes place during the hundred years war between England and France, in France. Bourgeon did research quite a bit to get outfits, houses, &c. look appropriat

[16:15:02] ski/rizon time peroid

[16:15:08] ski/rizon Mikoolo : anyway, nice song :)

[16:16:34] ski/rizon the story is such that you'll often find yourself flipping back pages, to double-check, trying to figure out what's happening. parts of the story is also qyite dreamy, you're not always sure what is waking and what is dreaming

[16:17:51] ski/rizon not told ComputerTech directly

[16:20:11] ski/rizon C64 does just `\r', for what's worth

[16:24:42] ski/rizon ArchWiki ?

[16:26:48] ski/rizon symlink `sh' to `tcsh', problem solved

[16:28:35] ski/rizon it would be sending different stuff, depending on the user agent, i suppose

[16:29:03] ski/rizon (well, s/would/could/, although that also works)

[17:44:39] ski/rizon key ?
