<@esch> solios: I can't believe it's been a year since you stopped smoking.
<@solios> 370+ days
<@solios> mercury wasn't really crystal clear on a time and I didn't log one.

<@esch> heh.

22:34 <@dragorn> right
22:34 <@solios> and send the sniff to snort.
22:34 <@dragorn> and then provide that data to snort
22:34 <@solios> so snort can sniff it.
22:34 <@dragorn> yup
22:34 <@solios> this makes me want to sneeze.

Discussion of this BBC article on emergency repairs to Discovery:
23:29 < solios> fagbot: doot for scraping barnacles off of Discovery
23:29 < fagbot> HEE HEE....COCK BOAT
23:29 < solios> fucking space dingleberries. :|
23:29 < xeno_beer> !
23:29 < xeno_beer> that's awesome.
23:30 < solios> "Astronauts have never fixed a shuttle's heat shields on a spacewalk before - or gone under an orbiting shuttle."
23:30 < solios> O_o
23:30 < xeno_beer> solios: you know we;'re grouned again right?
23:30 < xeno_beer> and apt to stay that way
23:30 <@ejp> "under"?
23:30 <@ejp> THERE IS NOT UNDER IN SPACE
23:30 < solios> 113 launches and we've never been on the ventral? o_o
23:30 < solios> xeno_beer: yes.
23:30 < xeno_beer> the scuttlebut is that they're scrapping the fleet and using it for "terrestial tasks"
23:30 < solios> heh.
23:30 <@ejp> it's a rocket.
23:31 < solios> no.
23:31 < solios> it's a spaceplane.
23:31 < xeno_beer> ejp: there is an under
23:31 <@ejp> wtf does a rocket do for terrestial tasks?
23:31 < xeno_beer> it is the Bottom of it
23:31 < solios> incinerate.
23:31 < solios> ANNIHILATE
23:31 < xeno_beer> EXTERMINATE.
23:31 < solios> DEEEEESTROOOOY
23:31 <@ejp> xeno_beer: lies
23:31 <@ejp> up/down don't exist.
23:31 < solios> O_o
23:31 < solios> HEaven 17 on radio nigel.
23:32 < xeno_beer> no, but bottom and top are relative to your appropriate pov and therefore DO
23:32 < solios> "This is the new Nasa. If we cannot prove this is safe, we don't want to go there. "
23:32 < solios> >_<
23:32 < solios> MEET THE NEW BOSS EVEN MORE OF A CHICKENSHIT THAN THE OLD BOSS
23:32 <@ejp> pussies.
23:32 < xeno_beer> when you look at a space shuttle, and acknowledging the fact that it is capable of atmospheric re-entry, it becomes immediately obvious which is top-side and which is bottom.
23:32 < solios> SPACE IS HARD PEOPLE DIE YOU KNOW THE RISKS YOU VOLUNTEERED WHAT BETTER GODDAMNED DEATH IS THERE NEXT QUESTION.

07:06 <@bda> I think so, yes.
07:07 <@bda> Well, the channel list says "Music Videos" for this block.
07:07 <@bda> Obviously it lies.
07:07 <@bda> And must be killed with fire.
07:07 <@rjbs> there are no music videos on MTV
07:07 <@rjbs> they moved to MTV2
07:07 <@rjbs> but now there are no music videos on MTV2
07:07 <@rjbs> they moved to [ CLASSIFIED ]
07:07 <@bda> Fuse.
07:08 <@bda> Except not at the moment.

19:30 <@john> I have the perfect woman for him
19:31 <@john> I can't believe I never thought of it before
19:31 * vai__ flees far, far away
19:31 <@john> oddly enough, I'm serious
19:31 <@john> it's an ex of mine. probably the only ex I still care about and keep in touch with
19:32 <@john> anyway, I'm listening to her complaining about how her friends and SO's never let her get anything done
19:32 < vai__> I see dark and arcane things in his future.
19:32 <@john> how they want to go out and drink all night and then not get anyhing all accomplished
19:32 <@john> oh.. and did I mention
19:32 <@john> that this thing she wants to get accomplished is all her painting?
19:32 <@john> so I'm listening to this
19:32 <@john> and I'm saying to myself
19:32 <@john> where have I heard all this before
19:32 <@john> ?
19:32 <@john> when it hits me
19:33 <@john> also
19:33 < vai__> THEY'RE PERFECT! they can ignore each other in perpetuum.
19:33 <@john> she's probably one of the few artists I know personally that would rival solios_
19:33 <@john> AND
19:33 <@john> her art is just as, if not weirder
19:33 <@john> though no wangbabies
19:33 <@john> so that's my story
19:33 <@john> also

12:56 < solios> The founder of the United Kingdom's Monster Raving Loony Party, one Screaming Lord Sutch (real name David Edward Sutch, 3rd Earl of Harrow), is found hanged at his late mother's residence. Sutch was the longest lasting party leader in the UK at the time of his death, ruled a suicide. One of the Loony Party planks was to ask rhetorically, "Why is there only one Monopolies Commission?"
12:56 < solios> o_o
12:57 <@ejp> the british are crazy
12:57 < solios> the british rock.
12:57 < solios> Godflesh, Black Sabbath, Watchmen, Sandman, Transmetropolitan...

13:03 < mdxi> sorry, i meant "smart person"
13:04 < mdxi> heh. so i had these 2 stories next to each other in olive: "Should Britain fund astronauts?" and "Boys 'used for human sacrifice'"
13:04 < mdxi> of course, i managed to read "Should Britain fund human sacrifice?"
13:05 <@ejp> see? crazy fuckin brits

11:11 <@bda> I shall inquire.
11:11 <@javaman> like one drinks whiskey?
11:11 <@iverson> that's so fake.
11:11 <@iverson> That's why god made the Irish, damnit.
11:12 <@bda> God made Ireland to train the faithful.
11:12 <@waltman> bda++
11:12 <@solios> I thought that's why god made the scottish?
11:12 <@javaman> hahahhahahhaa
11:12 <@solios> (whiskey)
11:13 <@ralfiboy> the scottish exist as an example of why a man should not wear a dress.
11:13 <@iverson> hah.
11:13 -!- javaman changed the topic of #215 to: 11:12 <@bda> God made Ireland to train the faithful.
11:13 <@iverson> "it's shite being scottish. we're the lowest of the low. the scum of the fucking earth!"
11:13 <@bda> hahahaha
11:13 <@bda> 11:12 <Danelope> I think drinking for eight hours straight without your heart stopping is pretty special.

12:33 < mdxi> okay, that's it.
12:33 < mdxi> apple has really gone entirely to shit
12:33 < mdxi> and iphoto is the worst of them all
12:34 < mdxi> somewhere in a 2500 image import it hits an image it doesn't understand. corrupt JPEG, probably.
12:34 < mdxi> what does it do?
12:34 < mdxi> first, it says "i dunno wtf is up with this file"
12:34 < mdxi> then it bails, having done NOTHING
12:34 < mdxi> ZERO FILES IMPORTED
12:35 < mdxi> it was on #1300-something last time i looked
12:35 < mdxi> where did all that go?
12:35 < mdxi> is hitting a corrupt jpeg really a completely unrecoverable error?
12:36 < mdxi> it didn't automatically route around it. it didn't even give me the OPTION of continuing OR saving what was done so far
12:37 < mdxi> it just QUIT
12:37 < mdxi> WAY TO GO, APPLE USABILITY ENGINEERS
12:37 < mdxi> WAY TO POLISH THE EVERLOVING SHIT OUT OF MY USER EXPERIENCE
12:37 < mdxi> YOU'VE COMPLETELY CAUGHT UP WITH MICROSOFT
12:37 < mdxi> HAPPY SLOW DEATH
12:38 <@ejp> that was nearly solios quality.
12:39 < mdxi> of course, once there's a P4 in there, iphoto can do absolutely nothing 3X faster
12:39 < mdxi> and with 15X the "horsepower" per watt
12:40 < mdxi> the dock should come with a Kick Steve Jobs In The Balls icon instead of that gay-ass spring loaded @-sign

03:15 < solios_> 100% humidity.
03:15 <@bda> Yeah.
03:15 <@bda> Fuck.
03:15 <@bda> It's going to be 90 today!
03:15 <@bda> That's fucking insane!
03:15 <@bda> 92 tomorrow@!
03:16 < solios_> er.
03:16 < solios_> wait.
03:16 < solios_> it's six AM?!
03:16 <@bda> Yes.
03:16 < solios_> WHAT THE FUCK.
03:16 <@bda> It is.
03:16 < solios_> O_O
03:16 < solios_> man.
03:17 < solios_> I'd love to go back to bed but this shitsoup woke me up. :|
In other news, 10.4 dumps screenies as .png, which is loads better than the gayass .pdf format in that it's, yanno, useable.
You know the day is off when exterior conditions give no indication of where the sun is.
Fuck, it's hot.

16:08 < solios> it might catch!
16:09 < mdxi> nothing says "crap" like "scifi original"
16:09 < mdxi> i seriously don't know who they think they're kidding
16:11 <@bda> I wish they'd give me the money they waste on making this crap.
16:11 < solios> heheh.
16:11 < solios> dude, you could buy lunch with that kind of money!
16:12 <@bda> I could buy lots of lunches.
16:13 < solios> at least three!

21:05 < solios> okay, I feel like the top of my head is wide open.
21:05 <@john> have you now been sniped?
21:05 < solios> snytactically, my blood sugar is off.
21:05 <@john> HEAD SHOT
21:05 < solios> which means I'm double-plus irrational.
21:05 < solios> yes.

21:05 < solios> john++
21:05 < solios> it doesn't matter.

20:40 <@ejp> "Kids, when you buy a bootleg DVD, you may be supporting people who might sympathize with a terrorist group that hasn't actually attacked us"
20:42 < solios> so you're committing TREASON
20:43 <@ejp> yup
20:44 <@ejp> treason is better when it comes with leggy blondes. :|
20:45 < y0shi> if i'm gonna support treason, i want more than the latest brukheimer flick, i want german poop porn
20:45 <@ejp> you would
20:46 < y0shi> ok, not really
20:47 < y0shi> i like solios' wangbabies, but i'm not even into poop porn
20:48 < mdxi> there's a difference between a bruckheimer flick and poop?
20:48 <@john> and /or wangbabies?
20:48 < y0shi> bruckheimer flicks don't have corn
20:48 < y0shi> and wangbabies are much better than either
The scary bit? I spent the entire weekend drawing the stuff instead of working on ATC. And I'm a better artist for it, no less.

16:12 <@john> I don't know enough about mormons
16:13 < solios> watch the original Battlestar Galactica and you'll be up to speed.
16:13 <@john> that was about Mormons?
16:13 <@john> were they they Cylons?
16:13 <@john> or the humans?
16:13 < fagbot> humans suck.

14:57 < solios> god.
14:57 < solios> I'm so glad we have it.
14:57 <@ejp> you've clearly never been to montana
14:57 < solios> because if we ever get invaded....

14:58 < mdxi> surrounded by white supremacists
14:58 <@ejp> we *lived* in idaho.
14:58 < mdxi> so you ARE white supremacists
14:59 < solios> and hallucinating.
15:00 <@ejp> well, I'm white. and I'm better than everyone else.
15:00 <@ejp> so I guess.

<@waltman> yelena has never see star wars!
<@solios> sweet.
<@waltman> granted, she grew up in belarus, but still. she's been here for 6 1/2 years.

08:16 <@bda> Y'know.
08:16 <@bda> I don't think strip is the utilty I was thinking of just now.

Odds are if I said more than a grunt in his general direction the plug-pulling could have been avoided in its entirety.
I'm a bad, bad monkey. I'd much rather sit here and internet than communicate on other planes. :P
So, I've been completely pwnt by Ben. gg, Ben! :D
By the same token my >:| at the state of the kitchen is as much my lack of communication as it is his. Still not entirely sure exactly how to deal with that, honestly.

11:41 < solios> wow.
11:41 < solios> the PC BIOS is actually halfway useful.
11:41 < solios> mostly because PC hardware is such crap it needs some type of interrupt.

14:20 <@xeno> [ They're neutering cookie monster because parents are too goddamned lazy to keep their progeny the fuck away from the TV. ]
14:20 <@xeno> o_o
14:32 <@solios> we just had a 10 minute talk about your link.
14:32 <@solios> (me, drone, and dictionario)
14:32 <@solios> group conclusion : BULLSHIT
14:32 <@xeno> yep.
14:32 <@solios> :|
14:32 <@xeno> unless it helps stop the mini-Daves
14:32 <@xeno> then i'm all for it
14:32 <@solios> >_<
14:32 <@solios> mini-Daves--
14:33 <@xeno> however, i would say Cookie Monster has less to do with the rise in childhood obesity than does, say, parents...
14:33 <@solios> yeah.
14:33 <@xeno> none of my kids are fatshits, and until they're out-of-the-house, they won't be
14:33 <@solios> JUNIOR'S A LARDASS BECAUSE YOU BABYSIT WITH THE FUCKING TV
14:33 <@solios> the parents are the problem, really.
14:33 <@solios> parents not wanting to be parents.
14:34 <@solios> parents not wanting to deal with kids.
14:34 <@solios> etc.
14:34 <@xeno> we can go further; it's not even the parents, it's the culture
14:34 <@solios> that was a cool thing about Debbie.
14:34 <@xeno> parents don't want to be parents because they don't have Time to be parents
14:34 <@solios> during the summer, the kids were allowed in the house for lunch and that was IT.
14:34 <@xeno> heh
14:34 <@xeno> yep.
14:34 <@solios> they were kicked out at like 10am and weren't allowed back in until dark.
14:34 <@xeno> and she cooked a bit better than your mom, so it wasn't like they were gaining calories.
14:34 <@solios> do that in the city your kid'll end up in a gang or butthumped or something.
14:37 <@solios> anyway, the problem (of course) is bad parenting.
14:37 <@xeno> yep.
14:37 <@solios> < parents> CHANGE COOKIE MONSTER OUR KIDS ARE RICHARD
14:37 <@solios> why does nobody tell these fuckers:
14:37 <@xeno> ;liurtkgyudtrsdkugkju
14:37 <@solios> < everyoneelse> DOOD YOUR KIDS ARE RICHARD?! TAKE THEIR TV AWAY AND MAKE THEM ACTUALLY _MOVE_ OR SOMETHING
14:38 <@xeno> or at least give them DDR.
14:38 <@solios> < parents> that requires effort! It takes a village to raise a child and by village they mean EVERYONE BUT US. MY KID IS RICHARD ITS YOUR FAULT!!!!! I'M GOING TO SUE!

23:45 <@solios> from the standpoint that I'm single largely because women have historically been an impediment.
23:45 <@solios> I don't need those.
23:45 <@solios> Occasional sex would be handy.
23:46 <@ejp> that page *sounds* like you dan

23:47 <@solios> I like girls, dammit. Until they transform into life-devouring death stars and pull out all the stops, attempting to suck me away from the execution of my Will.
23:47 <@solios> yeah, I like to say fuck a lot.
23:48 <@solios> And Sim's got a few years on me.
23:48 <@ejp> girls amuse me. they're like a mental excerise.
23:48 <@solios> yeah. like a puzzle game.
23:49 <@solios> HOW DO I GET THE SEX WITHOUT GETTING THE LIFE SUCKED OUT OF ME
23:49 <@ejp> such a totally alien way of thinking, not thinking and anti-logic all frapped together.
My problem isn't girls, it's my hardwired biological Need To Fuck. Being heterosexual, this naturally involves the opposite sex.
Or rather, it frequently Doesn't. A lot. I could write books about the why and the how of the Doesn't, but there's already more than enough >_< on mercury to clue the curious.

15:21 < solios> "Webb's are not the only results that suggest something is missing from our understanding of alpha. A recent analysis of the only known natural nuclear reactor, which was active nearly 2 billion years ago at what is now Oklo in Gabon, also suggests something about light's interaction with matter has changed."
15:21 < solios> NATURAL NUCLEAR REACTOR?! [ from the article ]

Wolfenstein : Enemy Territory (First Impression)

16:15 < solios> WET regulars are ASSHOLES.
16:15 <@ejp> s/WET/FPS?
16:16 < solios> yep.
16:16 < solios> I'm assuming it's all gamers, really.
16:16 < solios> their social skills SUCK ASS. >_<
16:16 <@ejp> pretty much
16:16 < solios> THESE PEOPLE ARE OTHERWISE NONFUNCTIONAL
16:16 <@ejp> also their typing.
16:16 < solios> worse than mine.
16:17 < solios> fagbot: doot for 1337sp34k, the webernet ebonics (language of IGNERT FUCKTARDS)
16:17 < fagbot> URGENT: PLEASE KEEP SHIFT-RELOADING THIS PAGE SO MY MODEM DOESN'T HANG UP
16:21 < solios> the game would be great of it weren't for the players. :|
16:23 <@ejp> this is how I feel about all mutiplayer stuff.
Well, I remember why I got out of gaming after I got to artskool- gamers are by-and-large even more socially retarded and reality-impaired than their tabletop bretheren... putting the FPS fuckwits somewhere in between people who've read Dragonlance too many times and LARPers. About a nine on the suckometer.
This would be why I have 47200+ frags in Quake III*- I don't spend five minutes downloading a map so I can spend 20 seconds waiting to spawn for every five seconds I'm alive, and the bots aren't Gundam/Crow/Chow Young Fat/Drizzt/fillinyourfuckingiconHERE wannabes.
As always, there are non-asswads in the community, but this is one case where it's really just not worth the effort to sift through the horseshit. There's too much of it, and the game completely hinges on this thing called "teamwork", as opposed to dual-pistol John Woo assholery. That shit isn't even cool in movies, yet here you'll find every tom dick and cocksucker who failed out of high school venting their ignorance through a virtual reenactment of everything that sucks about cinema.
I might have been impressed with this kind of behaviour in fifth or sixth grade, but those days are long gone.
It's a free download from Activision and runs on OS X and Windows... and you get what you pay for. It would probably be a hell of a lot of fun playing co-op in the same room, but the number of gaming-savvy non-assholes I know isn't large enough to make it fun.
Yet I'm throwing time at it- I've been playing Quake III for a Very Long Time and BZFlag just doesn't scratch the itch like I wish it would.
* The game only stat-tracks for single-player tourney.

22:52 -!- You're now known as solios_
Day changed to 26 Mar 2005
02:20 < solios_> holy gay.

18:45 < solios> FEEDING TUBE FEEDING TUBE FEEDING TUBE CULTURE OF LIFE FEEDING TUBE OH HEY WE'RE SELLING F-16 TO PAKISTAN BUT DID YOU HEAR THE LATEST ABOUT THE GODDAMNED FEEDING TUBE?!
18:46 < solios> I wish the media would get over this "human interest" trend it's been skullfucking for the last ... uh... well, since OJ, at least.
18:46 < solios> :|
18:47 < pthread> heh
18:48 < solios> american news media is too much like american entertainment. One thing gets popular and suddenly everybody's got their cocks out, spunking all over it, hoping a wad of spunk will hit the target and ricochet off in the form of ratings, dollars, popularity.
18:49 < solios> kick in the internet and suddenly you've got every accessible medium screaming about one fucking thing to the exclusion of all else. Other shit is happening, but since somebody decided this story has an ANGLE and shit, suddenly even sports reporters and otherwise non-"current events" webcomics are trying to cash in.
18:50 * solios smoulders, wishes he could get some goddamned Real News or at least Just The Facts Please.
18:50 < solios> :|
18:50 < solios> </rant>
18:53 < pthread> lol
Olbermann has The Facts on this season's Human Interest Cash Cow, without the inch-thick slathering of talking-head sycophantic word-semen that everyone else is snowballing. Olbermann reads as one of the few journalists out there who isn't flagrantly padding his timecard with buttleavings. Dig it.
Pity MSN's "blog" markup is such ass.
