May 06 00:01:07 <Tothwolf> does User:Mnemnoch work for sony?
May 06 00:02:01 <Fluffernutter> hmm. I need advice.
May 06 00:02:41 <Fluffernutter> In a situation where a non-notable person is mentioned often in the context of a notable event which may be embarrassing to that person, is it best practice to not name them in the article if naming them isn't necessary? Or is that unnecessarily avoidant and I should just use the damn name?

May 06 00:04:37 <Tothwolf> geniice: why would it matter?
May 06 00:05:05 <geniice> because on a practical level you are free to name or not name them as you see fit

May 06 02:54:43 <geniice> Fluffernutter one of the things you realise when looking at the apollo missions was how much stuff they got away with
May 06 02:54:56 <Fluffernutter> spaceships = boyzones for the longest time
May 06 02:55:11 <geniice> barts1a we'd probably find out. There isn't much in the way of privacy on space stations
May 06 02:55:15 <topaz> (one in ten! one in ten!)
May 06 02:55:22 <geniice> Fluffernutter not that there is anything wrong with that
May 06 02:55:25 <geniice> topaz ?
May 06 02:55:53 <Fluffernutter> geniice: course there's something wrong with that. I mean boyzone in the sense of woman-exclusionary, not in the sense of mmm-sausage-party-everyone-take-off-your-pants
May 06 02:55:54 <barts1a> Fluffernutter: They could just shut off the comms and be completely isolated

May 06 02:57:27 <Mike_H> I don't know, a prison guard fantasy can be pretty hot
May 06 02:57:28 <geniice> pretty much although a ship might have been a better comparison
May 06 02:57:58 <topaz> with six- and twelve-month sessions up on the ISS, I would be astonished if there hadn't been some bumping and grinding, privacy or no.

May 06 06:05:34 <catspjs01> homosexuality is not wrong...

May 06 06:08:45 <matthewrbowker> If anything, it gives him a talking point with girls (have you seen the size of beiber's female fanbase)
May 06 06:08:45 <Mike_H> for the lulz
May 06 06:08:52 <Matthewedwards> I doubt he's even seen what Bieber really looks like considering we don't have TV and we don't let him on the internet
May 06 06:08:56 <catspjs01> yeah, it really isn't a sign. There are plenty of people who like Justin Bieber who aren't homosexual and plenty who hate him who are
May 06 06:09:22 <Meepsheep> catspjs01, then good for the gay community for disliking him
May 06 06:09:33 <Matthewedwards> lol@ Mike_H
May 06 06:09:39 <Mike_H> I don't think it's a gay thing
May 06 06:09:53 <Mike_H> because I'd like to think gay people dislike singers with no talent
May 06 06:09:54 <Mike_H> but then again
May 06 06:09:56 <Matthewedwards> no, it's pretty much a anybody-over-13 thing

May 06 06:10:09 <Meepsheep> Mike_H, but it could be an early sign for a young boy

May 06 06:12:08 <Matthewedwards> not really. You're saying a young boy, my young boy, is going to turn out gay because he heard Baby Baby Baby and Somebody to Love on the radio a few times and I went out and bought the album for him
May 06 06:12:18 <Matthewedwards> and you're waiting to get a rise

May 06 12:25:40 <Ironholds> he believes in homeopathy. I drown him

May 06 12:25:50 <foks> Need help?
May 06 12:25:52 <foks> :3
May 06 12:25:55 <Ironholds> now, either he's right, in which case he's not dead because all the water is now prince charles
May 06 12:26:21 <Ironholds> or he's wrong, in which case he can't be the heir to the throne, representative-of-god-divine-right-always-correct-so-on, and thus murdering him isn't treason
May 06 12:26:36 <Hedgehog456> But it's still murder
May 06 12:27:18 <foks> Oh Ironholds.

May 06 13:57:33 <Pesky> Sex without affection is not worth it
May 06 13:58:17 <Qcoder00> I was saying there needs to be more 'free' (GNU sense) love than yet more 'FREE SEX !! XXX ' :(
May 06 13:58:25 <Pesky> Fluffernutter: I'm sure he's lying ……
May 06 13:58:39 <Fluffernutter> about women liking him?
May 06 13:58:54 <Pesky> no, about the massive amounts of emotionless sex
May 06 13:59:04 <tommorris> Affectionless sex seems like a perfectly pleasant way of passing one's time. Makes a break from editing Wikipedia.
May 06 13:59:18 <Pesky> But you have to be able to laugh with each other ….
May 06 13:59:28 * Despatche has quit (Quit: I am Merlin, wise and old; listen up to what you're told)
May 06 13:59:33 <Fluffernutter> tommorris: there's a difference, in my mind, between loveless sex (fine) and affectionless sex (awkward)
May 06 13:59:35 <Qcoder00> Emotionless sex is bad
May 06 13:59:37 <Pesky> It's good to be friends, at least
May 06 13:59:52 <Qcoder00> Without emotion , you loose the meaning
May 06 13:59:57 <Pesky> Sex-with-genuine-affection is so much better
May 06 14:00:04 <foks> "loose"
May 06 14:00:22 <Fluffernutter> sex doesn't have to have meaning every time, Qcoder00
May 06 14:00:34 <Pesky> Emotionless sex, you might just as well have an inflatable
May 06 14:00:56 <Hedgehog456> if (people['random-woman']['beautiful']['remotely'] = true) { me['action']['sex'](people['random-woman']) }
May 06 14:01:01 <Pesky> .. they don;t nag, or expect much from you. And they nver want to chat after sex
May 06 14:01:01 <Qcoder00> Given the way some MEN treat thier sexual partners, perhaps they'd be better WITH an inflatable....
May 06 14:01:07 <Fluffernutter> well, with emotionless sex, you're a lot less likely to be invested in whether your partner has a good time. which can tend to make things awkward
May 06 14:01:08 <Hedgehog456> emotionless sex, in some cases ^^^
May 06 14:01:15 <Pesky> Have you heard Tim Minchin on that one?
May 06 14:01:21 <Qcoder00> .. I mean you don't have to hide the bruising on an inflatable....
May 06 14:01:21 <Ironholds> Pesky: inflatable you? :p

May 06 14:18:14 <Fluffernutter> deposits?
May 06 14:18:25 <tommorris> Fluffernutter: when you run for election in Britain, you have to pay a deposit
May 06 14:18:33 <foks> MSP/MP candidates have to pay a deposit of £500 to stand
May 06 14:18:36 <tommorris> and if you don't get a certain perecentage of the vote, you lose the deposit
May 06 14:18:43 <tommorris> I thought it was £750 for MPs
May 06 14:18:44 <foks> They get it back unless they get less than 5%
May 06 14:18:49 <Fluffernutter> ...huh. that's...odd.

May 06 14:19:17 <tommorris> well, yes and no
May 06 14:19:17 <foks> Not really
May 06 14:19:22 <tommorris> you have to have some way of determining ballot access
May 06 14:19:32 <foks> It's to prevent every man and his dog standing
May 06 14:19:52 <Fluffernutter> i think over here we do that with petitions

May 06 14:25:12 <foks> With their last win in Clackmannanshire
May 06 14:25:13 <Ironholds> this is after I spent an hour explaining what a free market was
May 06 14:25:18 <Hedgehog456> "Libertarianism is a political philosophy that upholds individual liberty, especially freedom of expression and action.[1] Libertarianism includes diverse beliefs and organizations—all advocate either the minimization or the elimination of the state, and the goal of maximizing individual liberty and freedom."
May 06 14:25:23 <Ironholds> and half an hour explaining the distinctions between keynes and Hayek
May 06 14:25:27 <Qcoder00> foks : SNP have a majority?
May 06 14:25:32 <Hedgehog456> How the fuck is that anything to do with paying a deposit?
May 06 14:25:37 <Ironholds> if you haven't got it so far then you're being deliberately ignorant.
May 06 14:25:38 <foks> Qcoder00, that's what I said, yes.
May 06 14:25:40 <foks> :)
May 06 14:25:56 <Qcoder00> That means in a few months time they'll be all-mighty bust up between the MSP and the Tory Westminster govt
May 06 14:26:13 <Qcoder00> because the SNP is more like Old-Labour policy wise
May 06 14:26:16 <Hedgehog456> I think Tories would be more in to restricting MPs to those who can pay.
May 06 14:26:18 <foks> Qcoder00, it means that in the next three years we'll have an expensive referendum on independence

May 06 14:27:31 <Qcoder00> tommorris: Well apart from the small matter that No-one in England would want a Trident base
May 06 14:27:38 <Ironholds> Hedgehog456: hence why I was going "please try to avoid talking about stuff you're ignorant of"
May 06 14:27:55 <Qcoder00> And that an Independent Scotland would NOT want a 'foriegn' nuke on it's territory
May 06 14:28:17 <foks> an Independent Scotland is NOT A GOOD IDEA

May 06 14:37:49 <Fluffernutter> it's bad form to actually kill your sex partners

May 06 14:38:09 <Ironholds> but death-by-overexercise is kinda impressive
May 06 14:39:05 <Fluffernutter> it's bad form to render them dead through any method. mostly because it's terribly inefficient. you have to expend all the time and effort to find a new one if you kill
May 06 14:39:16 <tommorris> oh no you don't
May 06 14:39:32 <tommorris> that shows a distinct lack of imagination

May 06 14:48:04 <tommorris> of course, if you are a birther or an Osama bin Laden death denier or whatever, contradiction is less of a problem than it is for an epistemologist.

May 06 14:53:13 <tommorris> you are having an original thought if you, having acted in an epistemically virtuous way to learn about a subject X, believe that your idea P has not been discussed in relevant subject X before.
May 06 14:53:17 <tommorris> or something along that kind of line
May 06 14:53:34 <Ironholds> agreed

May 06 14:54:25 <tommorris> it could potentially be so
May 06 14:54:35 <Ironholds> potentially?
May 06 14:54:36 <juxonrails> tommorris: so how does epistemology differ from ontology ?
May 06 14:54:51 <tommorris> juxonrails: ontology covers what there is, epistemology covers beliefs and knowledge.
May 06 14:54:54 <Ironholds> juxonrails: ontology is the study of existence
May 06 14:55:10 <Ironholds> so ontology is "this is a rock. We will understand the nature of this rock"
May 06 14:55:24 <Ironholds> epistemology is "what is understanding? What does that constitute? Can one truly understand a rock?"
May 06 14:55:54 <tommorris> so, on the synthesis question: it depends on the nature of the synthesis.
May 06 14:56:06 <tommorris> some synthesis is original, other synthesis is not.
May 06 14:56:17 <Ironholds> okay, so, for example
May 06 14:56:31 <tommorris> you'd probably have to qualify it with regards to some basic and unanalaysable form of obviousness
May 06 14:56:42 <Ironholds> darn
May 06 14:57:02 <Ironholds> you're a fucking philosopher
May 06 14:57:08 <Ironholds> nothing is unanalysable! :p
May 06 14:57:24 <tommorris> it is unalaysable if you say it is unalaysable!! ;-)
May 06 14:57:30 <Ironholds> Sorry, this came about because one of my university lecturers was kind enough to tell me earlier that in 3 years she's never heard me say anything original
May 06 14:57:40 <Ironholds> it put me in rather a foul mood and I started arguing with her about it
May 06 14:58:00 * tommorris questions whether the word "kind" in your statement is meant in jest
May 06 14:58:08 <Ironholds> tiny bit
May 06 14:58:22 <Ironholds> indeed, she told me I only repeated the thoughts of others and needed to stop passing them off as my own

May 06 14:58:59 <juxonrails> hiya wctaiwan
May 06 14:59:04 <Ironholds> to which I replied that true original thought is impossible to make with certainty, that what I was doing followed the aristotelian method and constituted original thought, and that since I have the self esteem of a brick and no intention of passing things off, really the fault was with her interpretation
May 06 14:59:15 <wctaiwan> hey juxonrails
May 06 14:59:29 <Ironholds> so I apologised, quite deeply, for her being unable to understand me.
May 06 14:59:42 <tommorris> yes, I'd say that the idea of completely original thought is an insanely high demand.
May 06 14:59:49 <Ironholds> no, I'd say it's impossible
May 06 15:00:07 <Ironholds> in that we can't say with certainty something has never been thought up
May 06 15:00:07 <tommorris> Hmm. Not sure if it is impossible
May 06 15:00:16 <Ironholds> it depends what we're defining "original thought" as, though
May 06 15:00:23 <Ironholds> or "thought" for that matter
May 06 15:00:32 <tommorris> you could imagine a situation where original thought is possible: if you literally were the first person in the first educated society to discover some scientific idea
May 06 15:00:53 <Ironholds> tommorris: prove it's the first educated society and that space-aliens didn't come up with it 3,000 years before.
May 06 15:01:08 <tommorris> hence my appeal to a virtue-based epistemology
May 06 15:01:14 <juxonrails> mmm G&T & riding on a train mmm
May 06 15:01:15 <Ironholds> of course
May 06 15:01:24 <Ironholds> I mean, theoretically there is definitely such a thing as "true" originality
May 06 15:01:36 <Ironholds> we know there is one really really old race of space aliens who were first
May 06 15:01:44 <tommorris> you can't be absolutely sure that it's an original thought, but you can't be absolutely sure it's a thought at all, or that you aren't from the planet Zargon or that you aren't a brain in a vat
May 06 15:01:46 <juxonrails> irc always feels better when done over 100km/h
May 06 15:01:47 <Ironholds> we just can't prove which ones. Or that they exist. Or did exist.
May 06 15:01:57 <Ironholds> tommorris: don't go all solipsistic on me
May 06 15:02:22 <tommorris> I'd say it is deductively true that someone has had an original thought
May 06 15:02:34 <jps> half of all people are original, and the other half form a behaviorial probability distribution
May 06 15:03:01 <tommorris> Ironholds: you, accusing me of solipsism? ;-)
May 06 15:03:16 <jps> but anyone interacting with a university lecture at the level of being told they are unoriginal is necessarily original

May 06 15:04:06 <Ironholds> jps: it was a commercial law lecture
May 06 15:04:10 <tommorris> you can't know you are being original: sure.
May 06 15:04:30 <Ironholds> I was theorising that the doctrine of estoppel is closely linked to privity - sort of the inverse
May 06 15:04:56 <Ironholds> tommorris: yes, but the brain-in-a-vat problem bores me. I worked out the answer a long time ago.
May 06 15:05:04 <wctaiwan> I was working on a group project today. According to the guy responsible for putting everything together, one of the group members sent in an essay with hyperlinks still attached from the copied sources.
May 06 15:05:18 <wctaiwan> //sidetrack sorry
May 06 15:05:28 <jps> it's like fermions and bosons. The humans with even quantum charge are one, and odd quantum charge are the other. The fermions are forced to be original by the Pauli exclusion principle, and the bosons just go about their daily lives in the grasp of an agregatable probability distribution function.
May 06 15:05:31 <Ironholds> tommorris: the solution (feel free to write a paper on it) is "who the fuck cares? It's 2pm, lets go to the pub already"
May 06 15:05:35 <foks> Worst photoshop ever http://yfrog.com/z/hsvx7ruj
May 06 15:05:49 <tommorris> Ironholds: that's basically Hume's answer
May 06 15:05:58 <jps> However that analogy doesn't hold up because each individual's situation is geographically unique at least, so everyone is original
May 06 15:06:01 <juxonrails> I once thought I had an original tought... it was that in order to be happy one must 1) work 2) love 3) avoid envy of any kind or quality and then my therapeut told me that some feller named Sigmund Freud had come to this conclusion 80 years ago ;)
May 06 15:06:05 <Ironholds> tommorris: that was Hume's answer to a lot of things
May 06 15:06:07 <juxonrails> he added that the modern psychology professionals add "grieving what you have to grieve" to the formula of happiness
May 06 15:06:20 <Ironholds> juxonrails: actually, most modern shrinks reject freud

May 06 15:07:25 <Ironholds> KimiNewt: signs I'm a nerd - my first reaction was "neat, both our clauses had the same number of characters!"
May 06 15:07:28 <tommorris> okay on brains in vats, when I last thought about it, I came to the conclusion that Putnam's argument seemed pretty good. But I can't say more than that because the problem is actually not very interesting.
May 06 15:07:29 <wctaiwan> really? because they still taught us his theories in high school.
May 06 15:07:54 <wctaiwan> Ironholds: There is no valid reason except if you're using a purely command line IRC client to use a monospace font for IRC.
May 06 15:08:04 <wctaiwan> on the other hand if you counted the characters...
May 06 15:08:12 <tommorris> wctaiwan: how about "I prefer monospace fonts"?
May 06 15:08:20 <tommorris> That seems like a pretty good reason.
May 06 15:08:35 <wctaiwan> tommorris: It's an invalid preference, which brings into question your ability to make intelligent choices.
May 06 15:08:42 <KimiNewt> It's not, Ironholds
May 06 15:08:43 <tommorris> that said, I use a purely command line IRC client
May 06 15:08:44 <foks> ...not really

May 06 15:09:29 <wctaiwan> tommorris: in seriousness, of course it's a preference. But the benefits offered by monospace fonts don't really exhibit themselves on IRC, so eh.
May 06 15:09:37 <KimiNewt> because it doesn't count the apostrophe
May 06 15:09:48 <tommorris> wctaiwan: you don't know about all the secret ASCII pr0n channels I hang out on!

May 06 15:27:23 <Fluffernutter> you can't set the min to "a paragraph." That's completely undefined.
May 06 15:27:24 <juxonrails> that concludes the going-ons review of April 29th

May 06 15:28:21 <wctaiwan> not really jps. A significant minority of people here have two. And also some people still have separate phones for work and personal use.
May 06 15:28:39 <wctaiwan> the accuracy of the algorithm doesn't matter Fluffernutter as long as there is one.

May 06 15:28:54 <Fluffernutter> wctaiwan, true enough. as long as it's internally consistent it could be used.
May 06 15:29:29 <wctaiwan> also, maybe 100 words is too many, something like 50, perhaps

May 06 15:30:31 <BenutzerConny> Do you know a wiki project, where you can write your own biography? With POC etc.
May 06 15:30:46 <foks> wctaiwan, if you think 140 characters is unreasonable for Twitter, you're using the wrong service
May 06 15:31:47 <juxonrails> I'm expecting the third contestant to appear for social media like it did for OSes
May 06 15:31:49 <wctaiwan> foks: Sure. The point I'm trying to make is not that Twitter is somehow more stupid than I am, but that I don't see why people are willing to put up with a 140 char limit despite the original purpose being to keep it cellphone friendly.
May 06 15:31:52 <juxonrails> something distributed..
May 06 15:31:55 <wctaiwan> I barely use it.
May 06 15:32:05 <foks> People don't "put up with it"
May 06 15:32:12 <foks> That's the gimmick of twitter
May 06 15:32:32 <foks> You can't take off the limit, that would completely change the site into something completely unusale
May 06 15:32:39 <wctaiwan> don't take it off
May 06 15:32:40 <foks> * unusable
May 06 15:32:43 <wctaiwan> make it somewhat larger
May 06 15:32:46 <foks> Why?
May 06 15:32:48 <wctaiwan> microblogging should never be blogging
May 06 15:32:49 <foks> Where's the point?
May 06 15:32:53 <foks> It's not blogging
May 06 15:32:54 <wctaiwan> but it should allow me to finish a goddang sentence.
May 06 15:32:57 <foks> If you want to blog, blog
May 06 15:33:09 <wctaiwan> I don't. I want to write a sentence without being forced to use txtspk
May 06 15:33:14 <foks> If you want to post quick status things / links, microblog.
May 06 15:33:26 <foks> I use sentences on Twitter all the fucking time
May 06 15:33:27 <juxonrails> wctaiwan: without using ?
May 06 15:33:38 <wctaiwan> sure juxonrails
May 06 15:34:03 <juxonrails> wctaiwan: sure 'k I read that as "don't want" sry my bad
May 06 15:34:44 <juxonrails> wctaiwan: why it's 140 and not 160 is what really puzzles me
May 06 15:35:03 <wctaiwan> 140 because that's the maximum length of SMS plus what twitter adds to a message
May 06 15:35:05 <wctaiwan> IIRC.

May 06 15:36:18 <foks> Max length of SMS is 160 so
May 06 15:36:18 <topaz> "To avoid the need for splitting cellular text messages into multiple parts, the creators of Twitter capped the length of a tweet at 140 characters, keeping the extra 20 for the user's unique address."
May 06 15:36:30 <foks> ah.
May 06 15:36:36 <foks> But 140 is a nice limit.
May 06 15:36:38 <foks> :)
May 06 15:36:51 <juxonrails> topaz: but twitter doesn't deliver msgs to SMS or does it ?
May 06 15:36:58 <wctaiwan> it does
May 06 15:36:59 <juxonrails> *via SMS
May 06 15:37:04 <juxonrails> it does ?
May 06 15:37:09 <topaz> if you want it to.
May 06 15:37:13 <topaz> I can't imagine wanting to.
May 06 15:37:13 <wctaiwan> can't you follow people on SMS?

May 06 15:38:12 <Pesky> Ironholds: original thought - most likely to occur in a dream
May 06 15:38:19 <juxonrails> haha.. I pay 8€ /mnth for 1 mbit/s 3G but only 4€ for up to 15 mbit/s 3G on another operator
May 06 15:38:36 <Pesky> Conscious mind out of the way, other 90% free to go off on a trip
May 06 15:38:36 <juxonrails> I never expected flat-rate mobile broadband to go this low this fast
May 06 15:38:53 <foks> Clegg's killed the Yes campaign.
May 06 15:38:57 <Ironholds> Pesky: I haven't had a dream in...4 months.
May 06 15:39:03 <Ironholds> and before that, about 10 years
May 06 15:39:07 <Pesky> You probably have - just not one you can remember
May 06 15:39:20 <wctaiwan> Pesky: also showers.
May 06 15:39:23 <Ironholds> I can only remember one
May 06 15:39:26 <Pesky> There's a cute 'dream-logger' gadget you can get
May 06 15:39:29 <Ironholds> and if it's representative, I'm glad of that
May 06 15:39:33 <juxonrails> Ironholds: you should get on Seroquel if you have problems dreaming
May 06 15:39:36 <Pesky> (only logs that you have dreamed)
May 06 15:39:45 <juxonrails> it makes the dreams so vivid and lifelike
May 06 15:39:50 <jps> Maybe the Labor-Lib.Dem coalition will put AV back on the ballot if buyers' remorse sets in

May 06 15:40:09 <wctaiwan> sounds vaguely illegal.
May 06 15:40:37 <Pesky> …. upgrade means you can programme it to wake you up after 75% of your average dream-time ...
May 06 15:40:38 <juxonrails> wctaiwan: illegal is teh best !
May 06 15:40:42 <Pesky> then you can remember the dream
May 06 15:41:04 <Ironholds> juxonrails: I dated a girl for five years. She broke my heart. We broke up.
May 06 15:41:07 <Pesky> Amytryptilline can make people get some odd dreams
May 06 15:41:25 <Ironholds> the one dream I had was where everything was my fault, but it was okay, and we could get together again, because she forgave me. And THEN I woke up.
May 06 15:41:36 <Pesky> Ironholds: hearts get over it. Sure, they get scar tissue, but they do return to functionality
May 06 15:41:38 <wctaiwan> Thanks for sharing.
May 06 15:41:44 <Ironholds> if that's representative, i'm fucking glad my subconcious isn't allowed out of the box more often
May 06 15:41:57 <Ironholds> wctaiwan: it was to point out why me getting vivid and more memorable dreams is probably bad :p
May 06 15:42:03 <Pesky> You can task your subcon to dream on certain issues
May 06 15:42:04 <Ironholds> I mean, I hate humanity now
May 06 15:42:05 <wctaiwan> lol.
May 06 15:42:11 <Ironholds> Pesky: oh, lucid dreaming, yeah
May 06 15:42:14 <Pesky> now?
May 06 15:42:21 <Ironholds> that's not what I'm referring to, I can already do that.
May 06 15:42:26 <Ironholds> I meant proper, unprompted dreams
May 06 15:42:26 <wctaiwan> isn't it difficult for adults to lucid dream? per WP.
May 06 15:42:35 * KimiNewt has quit (Ping timeout: 260 seconds)
May 06 15:42:39 <Pesky> Not just lucid dreaming, but you can actually use NLP stuff to task it to do which kind of dreaming you want while your asleep
May 06 15:42:48 <Ironholds> wctaiwan: I did it a couple of months ago - it's best in that little warm half-woken-up-stage you get some mornings
May 06 15:43:00 <Pesky> But I haven't yet found a waqy of getting it to subtract undesirables, just to add more fun stuff
May 06 15:43:20 <Ironholds> wikipedia informs me that this is a waking-induced lucid dream
May 06 15:43:44 <Pesky> Ironholds: if you can do lucid dreaming as you're going to sleep, rather than waking, you may carry it streaight into REM sleep and continue / adapt it
May 06 15:43:59 <jps> Ironholds: you are still pining after the lecturer who told you you weren't original?
May 06 15:44:15 <Pesky> Of course, if you do a lot of lucid dreaming, it may reduce your need for sleep-dreaming
May 06 15:44:29 <Ironholds> jps: har
May 06 15:44:48 <Ironholds> Pesky: no, I mean I wake up in that half-awake stage between sleep and awarenes
May 06 15:44:48 <Ironholds> *s
May 06 15:44:51 <Pesky> Just ask what thier most recent truly original thought was. That should stump 'em.
May 06 15:44:56 <Ironholds> and then fall back into unconscious dreaming while lucid
May 06 15:44:58 <jps> was that the same person from the dream?
May 06 15:45:03 <Ironholds> jps...no.
May 06 15:45:13 <Pesky> Yes; start it while you're going to sleep , not waking up.
May 06 15:45:16 <Ironholds> mind you, it normally ends badly
May 06 15:45:23 <Pesky> Then let it wander
May 06 15:45:35 <Pesky> What's the scariest thing in your dreams (lucid or not)?
May 06 15:45:37 <Ironholds> I end up dreaming about what I want to dream about and then OH SHIT WITCHES HAVE TURNED UP AND THEY'RE GOING TO STAB ME
May 06 15:45:55 <Ironholds> and then I find out I've got sleep paralysis and end up mentally clawing my way out
May 06 15:46:24 <Pesky> But if you're half awake, and slightly aware, you can just grap whichever fantasy weapon of choice ….. and get rid of them .WfD - witches for deletion
May 06 15:46:39 <Ironholds> hah
May 06 15:46:41 <Ironholds> I wish

May 06 15:46:49 * juxonrails has quit (Quit: freenode)
May 06 15:46:53 <Ironholds> no, it starts off with me aware I'm dreaming and in control
May 06 15:46:56 <Pesky> Learn the 'grab fantasy weapon' technique. Sorts most dream-scaries
May 06 15:47:02 <Ironholds> and then it moves into aware I'm dreaming and not in control
May 06 15:47:11 <Pesky> so just take control again
May 06 15:47:13 <jps> the scariest thing in my dreams is that corporations take over run by artificial intelligence and the humans die off, leaving simply arbitrage against numbers which don't represent anything until the power fails
May 06 15:47:14 <Ironholds> (although reading the wikipedia article is actually really helpful)
May 06 15:47:29 <Pesky> jps - do you actaully dream that stuff?
May 06 15:47:30 <Ironholds> (like, I had no idea sleep paralysis and the twirling-falling-feeling was a general thing)
May 06 15:47:48 <Pesky> Falling off you r branch is like …… ancient …. truly ancient
May 06 15:47:56 <Pesky> survival technique pre-dating homo erectus
May 06 15:48:07 <jps> I did have a corporations-related nightmare, but it didn't have the AI in it. But how could they keep going without people if they didn't have AIs running them?

May 06 15:48:51 <Hedgehog456> My dreams can be said to be representative of something
May 06 15:48:55 <Pesky> It's called "falling" asleep becaue of that jolt thing, Ironholds
May 06 15:49:09 <Ironholds> Pesky: oh no, that's just the muscle twitch
May 06 15:49:16 <Pesky> not 'just'
May 06 15:49:29 <Ironholds> I meant the bit where I head into a lucid dream and feel like I'm in an elevator with broken brakes
May 06 15:49:30 <Pesky> The falling thing is different
May 06 15:49:32 <Fluffernutter> Pesky: [[Hypnic jerk]]
May 06 15:49:38 <Pesky> kinda, yes
May 06 15:50:00 <Pesky> Ironholds: could be switchover from mostly-awake to mostl;y-asleep
May 06 15:50:08 <jps> You know what Freud would say about being tormented by witches who want to stab you, don't you, Ironholds?
May 06 15:50:14 <Pesky> nononono
May 06 15:50:17 <Ironholds> jps: probably that I feel bad about the size of my cock
May 06 15:50:21 <Ironholds> that was his answer to most things
May 06 15:50:25 <BarkingFish> Could also be [[Myoclonic jerk]]
May 06 15:50:32 <Ironholds> "it's probably penis envy; everything else can be sorted by coke and hookers"
May 06 15:50:33 <Fluffernutter> jps: given that he recently called me a succubus, i think you're on to something
May 06 15:50:35 <jps> no way, that's not it at all
May 06 15:50:35 <Pesky> No, it's a 'being gay ut closeted and also likes dominant females' thing
May 06 15:50:38 <Ironholds> BarkingFish: that's what I was thinking of, sure
May 06 15:50:39 <Hedgehog456> I hate it when I'm in a doughnut that turns into a car that drives into a school with no children while being chased by giant bats
May 06 15:50:50 <Ironholds> Pesky: you got 2 out of 3

May 06 15:51:14 <jps> if you dream about witches wanting to stab you, Freud would say you are repressing your sexuality in order to conform to social mores
May 06 15:51:34 <Pesky> How about Bi and uncloseted but seriously likes dominant females but kinda wishes they were male ...
May 06 15:51:38 <jps> the only way to make the witches go away is to start dating
May 06 15:51:43 <Ironholds> Pesky: now you have 3 out of 4
May 06 15:51:52 <Ironholds> jps: I'm perfectly fine with my sexuality, thanks
May 06 15:52:04 <BarkingFish> The myoclonic jerk is a leftover reaction from tree dwelling animals. The sensation of them falling from their perch or wherever they're sleeping is designed to wake them, to prevent their injury.
May 06 15:52:16 <Pesky> Yay! That's what I said eariler
May 06 15:52:31 <Pesky> It's a 'remember to check you're not actually going to fall out of your nest' thing
May 06 15:52:44 <BarkingFish> Same in humans, you feel like you're falling, and your body jerks you awake just in case you actually *are*.
May 06 15:53:07 <Pesky> d'you know what the 'monster under the bed' is, BarkingFish?
May 06 15:53:19 <Pesky> (I do, btw)
May 06 15:53:31 <Pesky> … and the bogeyman in the wardrobe
May 06 15:53:33 <BarkingFish> if there's a monster under mine, it's bloody thin. I sleep on a futon :)
May 06 15:53:33 <Hedgehog456> I also hate it when I'm in a haunted mansion with Fred Flintstone, Scooby Doo and some random guy I've never met before and I walk out a door, end up in a park next to a building, and am killed by a rollercoaster going over the roof of the building and crashing
May 06 15:53:51 <BarkingFish> iirc it's a predator reflex, Pesky
May 06 15:54:05 <Hedgehog456> Is that a leftover reaction from something?
May 06 15:54:07 <Pesky> No, the 'scared to put foot out in case something grabs it', or 'can;t sleep if hands are trailing over edge of mattress' one ..
May 06 15:54:19 <Fluffernutter> you guys have strange dreams
May 06 15:54:25 <Pesky> Yes, it's the 'climbing predator' (big constrictor) one
May 06 15:54:42 <jps> Pesky: if it were a wish, it wouldn't be freighting. A freighting dream represents unresolved id-superego conflict
May 06 15:54:50 <Pesky> And the bogey in the wardrobe in the ambush-predator (leopard or similar)
May 06 15:54:52 <jps> freightening*

May 06 15:55:34 <Pesky> Best geek dream I ever had was one that just stopped right in the middle … succeeded by an info box which said "Application unknown has unexpectedly quit"
May 06 15:55:43 <Hedgehog456> Also when for some reason I'm back to primary school, maybe a teacher or something, and I'm climbing up a strange, crude wooden construction, when a huge tsunami comes out of someone's garden, then a child murders someone, and then God turns up and explains everything as "quantum"

May 06 16:03:37 <Ironholds> BarkingFish: a piece of string is twice as long as half its length. sorted.
May 06 16:03:44 <BarkingFish> :)
May 06 16:04:00 <Pesky> 12.5 inches
May 06 16:04:00 <Dragonfly6-7> ah, a lede. Anyone feel like trying to give that one a lede?
May 06 16:04:22 <Pesky> Some piece of string, somewhere, has to be 12.5 inches. So "a" piece of string is that.

May 06 16:06:16 <Fluffernutter> Alley^Away: turn it sideways and hit the "8" key
May 06 16:06:35 <Pesky> Or use a symbols font
May 06 16:06:39 <tommorris> Alley^Away: it depends on the OS
May 06 16:06:49 <Dragonfly6-7> [[Funky Taurus]]
May 06 16:06:53 <tommorris> the easiest way? Go to [[Infinity]] and copy the symbol to the clipboard

May 06 16:11:08 <tommorris> I mean, yes, it has Command, Control and Option

May 06 16:11:55 <wctaiwan> tommorris: there's an interesting story behind that symbol.
May 06 16:12:02 <jps> I think http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/European_Air_Racing_Championship is a fabrication intended as humor by a writer at the 14th grade level

May 06 16:12:34 <wctaiwan> oh.
May 06 16:12:40 <wctaiwan> does someone want to CSD that or should I?

May 06 16:13:40 <Dragonfly6-7> jps - okay, I'm missing the reason why it's a joke?
May 06 16:13:53 <wctaiwan> wait um, yeah, it looks legitimate
May 06 16:14:03 <wctaiwan> since there is an article on air racing
May 06 16:14:08 <wctaiwan> which does date back to 1908
May 06 16:14:10 <Dragonfly6-7> jps - explain please.

May 06 16:15:14 <wctaiwan> Dragonfly6-7: no google result either
May 06 16:15:29 <jps> yeah I googled it too. If it's a real race the MI6 doesn't want anyone to know about it
May 06 16:15:51 <wctaiwan> there are mentions
May 06 16:16:00 <wctaiwan> but at the very least the organisation does not have a website

May 06 16:20:56 <Fluffernutter> tommorris: wait, so people like the badges because they're freeware wank material involving children in short skirts?
May 06 16:21:51 <tommorris> they are for both
May 06 16:22:15 <tommorris> masturbating to child porn and being an insufferable jerk. that's the Wiki Way.

May 06 16:25:24 <Dragonfly6-7> got it?
May 06 16:25:32 <wctaiwan> :/ I might not be able to
May 06 16:25:37 <jps> Dragonfly6-7: I wish you would have prodded [[European Air Racing Championship]] instead of deleting it so quickly, it would be fun to look at the history and see who worked on it
May 06 16:25:40 <wctaiwan> it's not well documented, like I said.
May 06 16:26:14 <wctaiwan> and that piece was not encyclopaedic, either, best I could do would be to replace it with a stub
May 06 16:26:15 * Herodotus gives Fluffernutter an ever-meaningful barnstar.
May 06 16:26:22 * Fluffernutter blinks
May 06 16:26:23 <Dragonfly6-7> would you say "not an article" ?
May 06 16:26:41 <Fluffernutter> is it the Bitter Old Whiner's Barnstar? (does that exist? it should!)
May 06 16:27:08 <Ironholds> Apparently I'm an Illustrious Looshpah
May 06 16:27:16 <Ironholds> that sounds like I'm used for soaping out scrotums

May 06 16:27:44 <Fluffernutter> snerk
May 06 16:28:06 <wctaiwan> Dragonfly6-7: I don't think it's notable enough, personally (it looks like an event held by a regional club with a big name), but it *may* warrant a prod or an afd discussion instead of outright deletion.
May 06 16:28:07 <Ironholds> Fluffernutter: you, it looks like, qualify as a Lustless Windbag
May 06 16:28:09 <Ironholds> which is similar
May 06 16:28:14 <wctaiwan> I'm sorry about the hasty CSD suggestion.

May 06 16:44:10 <Ironholds> jps; they're honourary positions
May 06 16:44:26 <wctaiwan> I wonder if that has ever been on DYK.

May 06 16:44:35 <wctaiwan> it's one of the hilariously odd stuff

May 06 17:35:58 <Theo10011> some of those are good candidates.
May 06 17:36:38 <Theo10011> surprised not a lot of people from the active english wikipedia community run for the board.
May 06 17:36:57 <Ironholds> Theo10011, they do

May 06 17:37:13 <Ironholds> how about you both cease judgment until the nominations close, eh?
May 06 17:37:17 <WhiteWriter> People, what about this?
May 06 17:37:21 <Theo10011> ya, at least one.

May 06 17:38:07 <WhiteWriter> ?
May 06 17:38:15 <Theo10011> idk
May 06 17:38:21 <Theo10011> tag it for notability, I guess.
May 06 17:38:45 <WhiteWriter> But what about user Davidshabulafia, who edited same page
May 06 17:38:57 <geniice> Theo10011 it probably helps if board memebers speak at least two languages which disqualifies a far chunk (although far from all) of the en community
May 06 17:38:58 <WhiteWriter> what is wiki rule regarding this
May 06 17:39:37 <Pesky> I'd say probably ok for notability, after an ultra-quick look.
May 06 17:39:58 <Theo10011> I understand that geniice, but in my opinion that is beginning to hurt the situation.
May 06 17:40:23 <Theo10011> considering the fact that the english Wikipedia is the largest project, there's not enough representation on the board.
May 06 17:40:25 <geniice> Theo10011 en already gets far more attention than any other project
May 06 17:40:46 * PM|AFK is now known as [Pmlineditor]
May 06 17:41:10 <Theo10011> It does, but the board should have a healthy mix from the largest community as well.
May 06 17:41:25 <geniice> hmm a good DYK "that an extremophile bacterium, Paracoccus denitrificans, has been found to grow even under 400,000 times Earth's gravity, a fact having implications on the feasibility of panspermia?"
May 06 17:41:45 <geniice> What I want to know is what train of thought leads people to think of testing that
May 06 17:41:46 <Pesky> I saw that one in the queue - looked v. intersting
May 06 17:42:11 <Pesky> There's a lot of interest in extremophilics
May 06 17:43:11 <Theo10011> ya they've been found in places where life was never expected to be.
May 06 17:43:12 <Dragonfly6-7> panspermia is just a hypothesis
May 06 17:43:50 <geniice> yes but when you think about testing extremophiles you usualy think about conditions actualy found on earth (heat cold pressure radiation etc)
May 06 17:44:02 <Theo10011> the research does have a lot of implication on astrobiology.
May 06 17:45:27 <Pesky> Testers think of /everything/
May 06 17:45:33 <Pesky> It's the kind of minds they have

May 06 17:50:56 <geniice> Theo10011 what that life might be able to survive the gravity effects of a supernova?
May 06 17:51:02 * Bendersgame (~chatzilla@wikipedia/LuciferTiger) has joined #wikipedia-en
May 06 17:51:43 <Pesky> I think more that there is likely to be life in places that we hadn't previously considered to be 'capable of sustaioning life'
May 06 17:54:39 <Theo10011> geniice exobiology would cover a larger field than just that, there's already been theories about life growing on one of jupiters moon.
May 06 17:54:45 <Theo10011> or a stray asteroid.
May 06 17:55:03 <geniice> yes but 400,000g? I don't think we are going to reclassify neutron stars as "capable of sustaining life"

May 06 17:55:35 <Pesky> But … supose they are?
May 06 17:55:48 <Pesky> Just for the sake of supposing ...
May 06 17:55:50 <Theo10011> not every asteroid has to be affected by Supernova.
May 06 17:56:05 <Theo10011> its just extreme of space that they have to survive.

May 06 17:56:33 <geniice> Theo10011 I'm not saying it isn't useful but I'm trying to get my head around the thought process to get there. I mean 400Kg is what we use to seperate the bits of backteria after we've mashed them up
May 06 17:57:22 <Theo10011> 400 Kg?
May 06 17:57:25 <Pesky> Is that how they discovered it?
May 06 17:58:02 <Pesky> (kilo-gravs)
May 06 17:59:42 <Theo10011> hmm I know Kilogram and Kilogauss, never heard of Kilo-gravs.
May 06 18:00:00 <Pesky> prob not the 'correct' name, but gets the idea across
May 06 18:01:16 <Dragonfly6-7> 4*10^5 g
May 06 18:01:43 <Ironholds> Kilo-gravs
May 06 18:01:50 <Ironholds> they measure out thousandths of gravy
May 06 18:01:55 <Pesky> Thass wot I sed!
May 06 18:02:23 <Pesky> oh - so what measures thousandzzzzz
May 06 18:02:54 <Pesky> and - are you sure?
May 06 18:03:08 <Ironholds> Pesky: how do you ensure the death of a computer?

May 06 18:19:11 <Pesky> ?

May 06 18:19:31 <Pesky> The idea is that you have your face towards the fan, dear ...
May 06 18:19:46 <Pesky> … not away from it
May 06 18:19:47 * Fluffernutter snickers
May 06 18:19:58 <Ironholds> for the wind to be strong enough to actually pull my (annoyingly thick) hair back in a sort of impressive flowy thing behind me which demands a greatsword and a leather greatcoat, it has to be strong enough that I need to close my eyes
May 06 18:20:08 <Ironholds> which invariably leads to me falling over stuff, kinda ruining the whole thing
May 06 18:20:28 <Ironholds> or in one occasion, running into a lamppost
May 06 18:20:38 <Pesky> Noooo, you have to stand still, with that wossname word which I can't remember look on your face (accoutns for the screwed up eyes)
May 06 18:20:48 <Fluffernutter> enigmatic?
May 06 18:20:52 <Pesky> no
May 06 18:20:52 <geniice> see glasses solve that problem
May 06 18:21:08 <Pesky> Greatsword and leather greatcoat don;t really go
May 06 18:21:29 <Pesky> Greatsword and mysterious black cape goes
May 06 18:21:39 * Avi|work (~chatzilla@wikimedia/Avraham) has left #wikipedia-en
May 06 18:21:52 <Pesky> And long leather boots with turned-over tops
May 06 18:22:07 <Pesky> Aha! Highwayman's mask - that would get over the eye thing
May 06 18:22:24 <Ironholds> Pesky: the greatsword would, obviously, be in my hand
May 06 18:22:30 <Pesky> Well, yes
May 06 18:22:35 <Ironholds> swinging in a louche and yet deadly fashion as I walked
May 06 18:22:42 <Ironholds> the leather boots are a must
May 06 18:22:43 <Pesky> minced
May 06 18:23:18 <Ironholds> and a fedora

May 06 18:23:26 <geniice> if the backsword was good enough for George Silver it's good enough for anyone else
May 06 18:23:28 <Ironholds> basically I'm saying Harry Dresden but without the sex appeal thing
May 06 18:23:31 <Pesky> No, not a fedora. Wrong look
May 06 18:23:44 <Pesky> Sex appeal - please give generously, kind of thing?
May 06 18:23:45 <Theo10011> Is Ironholds cross-dressing?
May 06 18:23:53 <Dragonfly6-7> when isn't he
May 06 18:23:58 <Pesky> No, it's the highwayman look
May 06 18:24:14 <Pesky> Tricorne would do OK
May 06 18:24:24 <Theo10011> really? highwaymen wear fedoras?
May 06 18:24:24 <Ironholds> eh, I was thinking http://i282.photobucket.com/albums/kk247/Yumi68/HarryDresden.jpg

May 06 18:25:06 <Fluffernutter> you could work a fedora, i think, Ironholds
May 06 18:25:12 <Pesky> I wouldn't mind dressing you up as Charles II
May 06 18:25:20 <Pesky> Cloak and tricorne
May 06 18:25:27 <Pesky> and unicorn
May 06 18:25:28 <Ironholds> and the tights, and shoes with tiny tiny buckles
May 06 18:25:34 <Ironholds> I'd make a good Charles II
May 06 18:25:37 <Pesky> not tights, dear, /hose/
May 06 18:25:43 <Ironholds> although at some point if I actually get a career I need to cut all my hair off
May 06 18:25:46 <Ironholds> it won't fit under my wig
May 06 18:25:49 <Pesky> Why?
May 06 18:25:50 <Ironholds> I know this because, yes, I tried
May 06 18:26:19 <Pesky> Any career which requires you to be other than yourself is the wrong career fo you

May 06 18:26:37 <Ironholds> yes, there is a minor problem

May 06 18:26:51 <Pesky> So don;t go playing with monirs ...
May 06 18:26:53 <Ironholds> I mean, I could maybe be a serial killer
May 06 18:26:55 <Pesky> minors
May 06 18:26:58 <Ironholds> but I'd probably get bored and turn myself in
May 06 18:27:15 <Ironholds> or just forget to sleep because I was writing a wikipedia article all night, and then end up dozing off at the scene of the crime
May 06 18:27:24 <Pesky> Take a sledgehammer to a packet of Weetabix instead - most people wouldn't know the difference
May 06 18:27:27 <Headbomb> holy tits, apparently Ahmadinejad is considering resignation

May 06 18:27:42 <Theo10011> on the plus side, they might let you edit from the prison.
May 06 18:27:46 <Ironholds> Pesky: that's also not a career
May 06 18:27:52 <geniice> Headbomb there's been some internal conflict going on in iran for a while
May 06 18:27:52 <Ironholds> Theo10011: that'd make CU results damned interesting
May 06 18:28:03 <Theo10011> heh
May 06 18:28:36 <Headbomb> geniice: i know, but usually it seemed to be of the "i might as well be king so fuck you all"
May 06 18:28:43 <Pesky> You're far too much of a free spirit ever to settle happily into a p[rison - so better avoid that route
May 06 18:28:48 <geniice> Headbomb my guess is the clerics and the revolutionary guard are getting worried about the basij
May 06 18:28:56 <Ironholds> I'm not really a free spirit
May 06 18:29:03 <Ironholds> I mean, it's not like I actively dislike order
May 06 18:29:09 <Ironholds> I just can't be arsed to follow it
May 06 18:29:14 <Pesky> That's not what a free spirit is
May 06 18:29:29 <Pesky> Free spirits can like order, so long as the order isn't oppression
May 06 18:29:32 <Headbomb> probably has to do with Khamenei being a dickweed

May 06 18:31:55 <Pesky> How about becoming a best selling writer?
May 06 18:32:07 <Ironholds> Pesky: yeah, I can't write fiction and I'm not qualified to write non-fiction
May 06 18:32:15 <Pesky> Or even a just-about-getting by-enough writer?
May 06 18:32:16 <Ironholds> I am halfway through writing one work of fiction
May 06 18:32:20 <Ironholds> which mindspillage assures me is not terrible
May 06 18:32:28 <Pesky> How do you know (and what makes you think) you can't write fiction?
May 06 18:32:40 <Ironholds> because I used to try and it was awful ;p
May 06 18:32:45 <Pesky> I am nearly half way through book 3 of a fantasy trilogy
May 06 18:33:02 <Pesky> Maybe you just weren;t trying the right kind of fiction for you
May 06 18:33:27 <Dragonfly6-7> what's the trilogy?
May 06 18:33:41 <Pesky> 'not published yet' is what it's called !
May 06 18:33:52 <Fluffernutter> heh
May 06 18:33:53 <Ironholds> Pesky: the one thing I've ever tried to write which was any good was basically "here is a year of my life with heavy exaggeration", which isn't really fiction
May 06 18:34:00 <Pesky> Writing is the easy part. Finding an agent is really hard
May 06 18:34:17 <Ironholds> and I can't imagine a right kind of fiction
May 06 18:34:37 <Pesky> How about historic detective thrillers with legal background
May 06 18:34:41 <Ironholds> now, if one of the major newspapers had a job called "write a column each day that skewers someone and then drenches them in bile", THAT I would do
May 06 18:34:57 <Ironholds> Pesky: eh. na.
May 06 18:35:01 <Pesky> why not?
May 06 18:35:02 <Theo10011> I think you can write crime fiction.
May 06 18:35:08 <Ironholds> Theo10011: because?
May 06 18:35:23 <Theo10011> idk tap into that rage of yours.
May 06 18:35:27 <Ironholds> Pesky: I don't like victorian history, victorian legal history or thrillers
May 06 18:35:29 <geniice> Ironholds> richard littlejohn isn't letting go of that job any time soon

May 06 18:35:55 <Pesky> Write about the life of a serial killer - what drives him / her to it, how they plan their series, how they make it almost impossible to tie them down . etc. etc.
May 06 18:35:56 <Dragonfly6-7> "not a man who works as a cunt"
May 06 18:36:05 <Theo10011> oooh like Dexter.
May 06 18:36:11 <geniice> Pesky been done
May 06 18:36:13 <Pesky> But go for not-Victorian, then!
May 06 18:36:27 <Dragonfly6-7> or "I Am Not A Serial Killer"
May 06 18:36:30 <geniice> Pesky been done. See Brother Cadfael
May 06 18:36:37 <Pesky> geniice: but can always be done again. Different killer, different thriller
May 06 18:36:54 <Pesky> Yes, I like Cadfael. And also Jecks, and all the rest
May 06 18:36:55 <Ironholds> Pesky: you don't really get detectives before the 18th and 19th enturies
May 06 18:37:03 <Hedgehog456> yay
May 06 18:37:07 <Ironholds> and I can't see it being very interesting
May 06 18:37:07 <geniice> Pesky historical detective fiction is popular at the moment since it gets you around pesky problems like DNA testing
May 06 18:37:12 <Fluffernutter> there's very little that's new in fiction. the differences, and the good and bad, come with the person who turns it into a story
May 06 18:37:16 <Pesky> This is /fiction/ ……. yes? So you can make them up. That's the joy of fiction./
May 06 18:37:19 <Dragonfly6-7> have you read the Lord Darcy novels?
May 06 18:37:21 <Hedgehog456> the swear word hiding feature on my website doesn't block Scunthorpe
May 06 18:37:31 <Pesky> Not Darcy, no
May 06 18:37:32 <tommorris> sigh. I do wish vandals would stop inserting personal information. having to tell revdel and oversight about stuff is boring
May 06 18:37:35 <Ironholds> Pesky: some day I shall show people the deliberately vomit-inducing slash fiction I wrote
May 06 18:37:38 <Ironholds> how does that work? :p
May 06 18:37:38 <Dragonfly6-7> Pesky - by Randall Garrett
May 06 18:37:40 <geniice> Ironholds actualy some of the Brother Cadfael stuff isn't bad if very predictiable
May 06 18:37:55 <Ironholds> geniice: not saying it's bad, just that I couldn't write it

May 06 18:38:23 <Pesky> Iron I bet you could write it.

May 06 18:38:27 <OlEnglish> hi all
May 06 18:38:32 <Dragonfly6-7> he *has* to solve the crime, because if he doesn't, he's the most likely suspect
May 06 18:38:40 <Ironholds> I'd try to write something deliberately bad for my own sick sense of amusement
May 06 18:38:40 <geniice> Ironholds been done http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Internet_censorship_in_the_United_Kingdom#.22Girls_.28Scream.29_Aloud.22
May 06 18:38:46 <Dragonfly6-7> and because he's a burglar, he has no problem with sneaking onto the crime scene and planting fake evidence
May 06 18:38:50 <Pesky> Various deceased family members of mine wrote detective fiction as a sideline
May 06 18:38:58 <Theo10011> Also, isn't publishing a dying business?
May 06 18:39:07 <Pesky> Kind of.
May 06 18:39:14 <Dragonfly6-7> all businesses are dying
May 06 18:39:18 <geniice> Theo10011 it's unclear
May 06 18:39:19 <Ironholds> about a sociopathic lawyer who deliberately commits crimes, frames others and then defends them to provide him with some sort of challenge
May 06 18:39:25 <Pesky> But people still like paper books. You can't really curl up under the covers comfortably with a computer
May 06 18:39:33 <Fluffernutter> traditional, paper-and-pencil-based publishing is on a bit of a downswing
May 06 18:39:37 <Ironholds> Pesky: the sexbot 3000 say different

May 06 18:41:02 <Ironholds> his name's Mike
May 06 18:41:12 <Pesky> Yes, but I bet they're "not taking on any new authors at present"
May 06 18:41:15 <Hedgehog456> The Ironholds Sombre Literature Company
May 06 18:41:24 <Ironholds> naw, they're pretty reasonable - he's got thousands of authors for his firm
May 06 18:41:33 <Ironholds> I've even got the business card around here, hang on
May 06 18:41:40 <Ironholds> yeah, it says "Mike Rosoft, Publisher"
May 06 18:41:43 <Ironholds> that's what you wanted?
May 06 18:41:53 <Hedgehog456> "IRONHOLDS - PUBLISH YOUR SOMBRE BOOKS HERE"
May 06 18:42:08 <Pesky> Every publisher I;ve contacted says "we only take works via literary agents", and every literary agent says : "not taking on any new authors at present"
May 06 18:42:10 <Ironholds> Hedgehog456:
May 06 18:42:14 <Ironholds> eck
May 06 18:42:28 <Ironholds> I was going to say "I only accept volumes which are big enough to be used as offensive weaponry"

May 06 18:42:58 <Ironholds> Tothwolf: I said offensive weapon, not "banned under the geneva conventions as OTT"

May 06 18:56:04 <Ironholds> Pesky: taking out-of-focus pictures or climbing trees?
May 06 18:56:11 <Pesky> In the tree
May 06 18:56:23 <Ironholds> woman, when I was nine I was sent to a boarding school surrounded by forest
May 06 18:56:33 <Dragonfly6-7> and your'e still there
May 06 18:56:34 <Ironholds> the choices were sports or hiding in the woods
May 06 18:56:35 <Pesky> Takes a lot of middle-body (OK, yes, and upper body, and lower body) strength to do that
May 06 18:56:39 <Ironholds> I hate sports
May 06 18:56:41 <killiondude> Sherrwood Forest?
May 06 18:56:45 <Ironholds> I'm pretty good at tree-climbing
May 06 18:56:50 <Ironholds> killiondude: sure, if it'll shut yu up
May 06 18:56:51 <Ironholds> *o
May 06 18:57:05 <killiondude> The United Kingdom is just a fairytale land.
May 06 18:57:09 <Pesky> I am /excellent/ at tree-climbing
May 06 18:57:14 <Ironholds> Pesky: you can't be
May 06 18:57:20 <Pesky> Why not?
May 06 18:57:30 <Ironholds> because you said that picture was your own work, in which case you must have been taking the picture, and not taking the tree
May 06 18:57:33 <Pesky> I spent a large proportion of my childhook in trees
May 06 18:57:40 <Pesky> OH's work counts as mine
May 06 18:57:42 <Ironholds> unless you're telling me you've violated copyright law and I should delete that image? :p
May 06 18:57:44 <Ironholds> OH?
May 06 18:57:50 <Pesky> And vice-versa (private agreement we have)
May 06 18:57:55 <Pesky> Other half
May 06 18:58:08 <Ironholds> ahh
May 06 18:58:16 * Ironholds snorts
May 06 18:58:33 <Ironholds> my mind jumped to "private agreement means 'if he doesn't do what you say you cut a bit of him off in his sleep', right?"
May 06 18:58:46 <Pesky> He would of course be perfectly happy to put that in writing if anyone questioned it
May 06 18:59:00 <Pesky> Noooooo! I wouldn't do that to him!
May 06 18:59:12 <Ironholds> you could taxidermy it and use it as a coatrack
May 06 18:59:18 <Pesky> Mainly because he must be the only person on earth who can actually handle living with me3
May 06 18:59:25 <Ironholds> he'd still be living with you
May 06 18:59:27 <Tothwolf> bad Ironholds! bad!
May 06 18:59:30 <Ironholds> it just wouldn't be a "he" any more
May 06 18:59:42 <Fluffernutter> depends on what bits need to be present to count as a he
May 06 18:59:43 <Ironholds> Tothwolf: it's actually a very cunning plan
May 06 18:59:46 <Pesky> He is very unusual
May 06 19:00:03 <Pesky> And there are certain bits of him that I would miss if they got amputated
May 06 19:00:03 <Ironholds> I figure if I can only have every man in the world's penis removed, women will have no choice but to sleep with me
May 06 19:00:15 <Tothwolf> Pesky: Ironholds fell out of a few too many trees in his younger years
May 06 19:00:19 <Pesky> Ummmmm … no, lots of choices!
May 06 19:00:24 <Ironholds> of course, faced with that dilemma, I predict most women would probably become voluntary lesbians

May 06 19:00:57 <Ironholds> Tothwolf: I fell out of precisely the right number of tree
May 06 19:00:58 <Ironholds> *s
May 06 19:01:11 <mindspillage> precisely the right number for what?
May 06 19:01:16 <Pesky> I haven't fallen out of any, I don;t think - I'm good at holding on
May 06 19:01:29 <Pesky> And very flexible, so easy to chuck a leg around a bracnh and hang on
May 06 19:01:48 <mindspillage> I've never fallen out of a tree. Fallen on plenty of other things though, including perfectly stationary floors.
May 06 19:01:51 <Pesky> EDS has its uses
May 06 19:01:57 <Ironholds> mindspillage: the right amount of brain damage
May 06 19:02:00 <Fluffernutter> mindspillage: precisely the right number to render him the...him...that we see today
May 06 19:02:01 <Ironholds> and yes, you fall over lots
May 06 19:02:22 <Dragonfly6-7> Ironholds - you should read "Y, the Last Man"
May 06 19:02:27 <Tothwolf> geniice: enough
May 06 19:02:30 <Pesky> Stupid thing is that most of my more majhor injuries have resulted from really stupid things
May 06 19:02:34 <Ironholds> geniice: very little, but I can think of a way to make it very, very deadly

May 06 19:04:14 <Ironholds> the reason .22 bullets are particularly effective at that is precisely because of their small size
May 06 19:04:29 <Ironholds> penetrate the skull, not enough power to go out the other side, pings around and turns their brain into rasberry preserve.
May 06 19:04:41 <Pesky> Yup .22 up into brain stem through nape of neck - always a nice clean one
May 06 19:04:43 <Dragonfly6-7> mmm, raspberry
May 06 19:05:00 <Ironholds> Pesky: in the days of yore I fired .22 rifles
May 06 19:05:08 <Pesky> Me, too!
May 06 19:05:15 <Ironholds> Fluffernutter, did we fire a .22 weapon at your father's place, or was that one of the broken ones?
May 06 19:05:17 <Ironholds> Pesky: rifles or handguns?
May 06 19:05:17 <Pesky> I was in the school rifle club
May 06 19:05:21 <Pesky> Rifles
May 06 19:05:22 <Fluffernutter> no, we fired the 22
May 06 19:05:56 <Ironholds> Pesky; was it by any chance a Lee Enfield?
May 06 19:05:59 <Tothwolf> meh
May 06 19:06:00 <Pesky> I was actually wuite good … but of course that was whole decades before you were born
May 06 19:06:06 <Pesky> rofl
May 06 19:06:15 <Tothwolf> varmint guns...
May 06 19:06:16 <Fluffernutter> Pesky: just about everything was decades before he was born
May 06 19:06:25 <Ironholds> the standard rifle for school shooting clubs seems to be the No. 4 Lee Enfield rechambered for .22
May 06 19:06:28 <Pesky> Tell you what - I can actually, really, truly make flint arrow heads, if you want ...
May 06 19:06:36 <Ironholds> which is neat, because that's what I used to fire
May 06 19:06:36 <Pesky> never know when that might come in handy ..
May 06 19:06:45 <Ironholds> Pesky: I can make massive aerial flaming dragons. HAH.
May 06 19:06:57 <Ironholds> admittedly the one and only time I did it I ended up embedding a stanley knife through one of my knuckles
May 06 19:07:09 <Pesky> i can do spear heads and hand axes, but I find serrated-edge blades really boring to try
May 06 19:07:20 <Ironholds> you scare me

May 06 19:07:36 <Pesky> Why would that scare you?
May 06 19:07:42 <Pesky> did
May 06 19:07:55 <Ironholds> Pesky: because I'm waiting for the "and I have 30 sociopathic hyper-flexible grandchildren I have taught EVERYTHING I KNOW"

May 06 19:21:06 <Hedgehog456> It's his latest world domination plan.
May 06 19:21:11 <Jeske_Couriano> OlEnglish) Yeah, I got deopped.

May 06 19:22:42 <killiondude> Quentinv57: You think? Are you asking for someone else? I'm just a little confused.
May 06 19:22:46 <killiondude> Why would this be blacklisted?
May 06 19:22:55 <Jeske_Couriano> killiondude) No, I can't.
May 06 19:23:02 <Quentinv57> killiondude, no, it is blacklisted and I want this to be whitelisted
May 06 19:23:09 <Jeske_Couriano> The deop specifically precludes that.

May 06 19:24:08 <Quentinv57> killiondude, somebody requested unblacklisting on meta but it is a bit complicated, sb's noticed that it would be better to add it on local whitelist

May 06 19:37:17 <killiondude> each time you remove a piece of trivia from Wikipedia a baby dies.
May 06 19:37:33 <Jeske_Couriano> ZT) Start killin' babies.
May 06 19:38:02 * Fluffernutter looks at killiondude, heads to wikipedia to start removing trivia
May 06 19:38:03 <tommorris> I'd suggest that someone start Trivipedia, a giant database of trivia so useless it doesn't need to be on WP.
May 06 19:38:13 <Fluffernutter> tommorris: seen Wikia lately?
May 06 19:38:14 <tommorris> But then... I fear Wikipedia's content contributions would slump even further ;-)
May 06 19:38:30 <tommorris> Citizendium, Wikinfo, Wikia: we need you!
May 06 19:38:52 <Qcoder00> tommorris: Give us you facts, you hudlled collections of information.... ;)
May 06 19:38:57 <Qcoder00> *your facts
May 06 19:39:10 <Dragonfly6-7> what about all the TV shows that were broadcast *in* 1976?
May 06 19:39:16 <Theo10011> Wikia is getting good with Games wikis.
May 06 19:39:17 <tommorris> that basically was the premise of Wikinfo, wasn't it?
May 06 19:39:33 <Dragonfly6-7> I'm sure there were lots of episodes of "All My Children" that were set in 1976
May 06 19:39:35 <Doh5678> Why just Wikia?
May 06 19:39:37 <tommorris> or was it so people could be racist?
May 06 19:39:41 <Dragonfly6-7> oh! Time Travel shows!
May 06 19:39:47 <tommorris> and put Wikipe-tan on the home page
May 06 19:39:47 <Dragonfly6-7> how many episodes of Quantum Leap were set in 1976?
May 06 19:40:09 <jps> in the before version of http://www.weather.com/outlook/weather-news/news/articles/flooding-before-after_2011-05-04?page=3 why are some of the clouds light blue?

May 06 19:43:35 <Fluffernutter> tommorris: y'all are taking the whole emulating-america thing a bit too far
May 06 19:43:49 <killiondude> you could be in australia where they fine you if you don't vote!
May 06 19:44:14 <jps> I'm convinced that the demographic patterns will bring AV back on the UK ballot soon

May 06 19:47:00 <Fluffernutter> what's UKIP?
May 06 19:47:27 <Qcoder00> UKIP are a load of right wingers that want to make the UK uncompetitive for ideological reasons
May 06 19:47:34 <Doh5678> UK independence party
May 06 19:47:43 <killiondude> ukip is like ikip
May 06 19:47:54 <Doh5678> They beat the Lib Dems though
May 06 19:47:54 <Fluffernutter> also, for that matter, what's EngDem's platform
May 06 19:47:55 <Qcoder00> Any admins around?
May 06 19:47:58 <jps> now Lib Dems will be forced to work within the Labour hegemony if they don't want to spoil their own elections, which does have advantages over being forced into a powerless coalition with austerity types
May 06 19:48:02 <Fluffernutter> killiondude: that would be terrifying
May 06 19:48:10 <killiondude> heh.
May 06 19:48:25 <Qcoder00> Any admins, AWB users or bot writers around?

May 06 19:50:52 <Ironholds> individual freedoms, the role of the state
May 06 19:50:54 <tommorris> oh god, they've got Govetwat on TV
May 06 19:51:06 <tommorris> I really want to punch Michael Gove
May 06 19:51:11 <Ironholds> in the balls?
May 06 19:51:15 <tommorris> go on Paddy Ashdown, give him a smack
May 06 19:51:16 <Ironholds> with a knife?
May 06 19:51:25 <jps> Labour supports more individual freedoms than Lib Dems?
May 06 19:51:41 <Fluffernutter> does it count as punching if it involves a knife?
May 06 19:51:44 <Ironholds> jps: eh?
May 06 19:51:53 <Ironholds> jps: I said the lib dems and tories had more in common
May 06 19:51:59 <Ironholds> not that the tories and labour had more in common ;p
May 06 19:52:22 <jps> Which party do you think supports individual freedoms the most?
May 06 19:52:38 <Ironholds> of the 3 main ones?
May 06 19:52:41 <jps> yeah
May 06 19:52:49 <Ironholds> well, that's difficult - define individual freedoms? Are we talking human rights or civil liberties?
May 06 19:53:13 <jps> the way you meant it two minutes ago
May 06 19:53:21 <Ironholds> the lib dems, in the context of positive rights
May 06 19:53:29 <Ironholds> the tories tend to support negative freedoms to a stronger degree
May 06 19:53:58 <Qcoder00> Anyone here good with Wikipedia technical stuff, or is this channel ##libdemsaredead at present?
May 06 19:54:15 <Ironholds> Qcoder00: #wikimedia-tech
May 06 19:54:22 <Ironholds> go there and stop asking silly questions
May 06 19:54:27 * tommorris now knows how it feels to be a sane American on the day after electing or re-electing George W Bush
May 06 19:54:36 <Qcoder00> It's a specfically English Wikipedia matter
May 06 19:54:46 <Qcoder00> And I don't call asking tech questions here silly
May 06 19:55:01 <killiondude> Your questions are usually silly.

May 06 19:55:13 <killiondude> same timer!
May 06 19:55:16 <Qcoder00> killiondude: Not this time
May 06 19:55:28 * Fluffernutter harrumphs, typos on killiondude's face
May 06 19:55:31 <Ironholds> Qcoder00: if it's technical, it's -tech
May 06 19:55:31 <Qcoder00> I am wanting to know if it's possible to get a list of redirects in Image namespace
May 06 19:55:36 <killiondude> Qcoder00: Don't ask to ask! Just ask your question and a helper will be right along to help you.
May 06 19:55:37 <Qcoder00> So I can fix them up
May 06 19:55:50 <killiondude> I think courcelles was working on such a list last night.
May 06 19:55:52 <Qcoder00> killiondude: I just did
May 06 19:55:54 <Qcoder00> :)
May 06 19:56:01 * tommorris reckons we need an International Association for Solidarity Among Sane People.
May 06 19:56:09 * Fluffernutter has dibs on courcelles next time he comes online. the rest of you can back right off.
May 06 19:56:11 <jps> I would say the Lib Dems have been best, they want to decriminalize nonviolent crimes, depend on diplomacy instead of war, but the tories and labour have been in a tough-on-crime race to lock people up without charges for various lengths of time
May 06 19:56:11 <Ironholds> tommorris: over 50 percent of votes have now been declared against, so, yeah
May 06 19:56:28 <Ironholds> jps: again, it depends what you mean by "human rights"
May 06 19:56:31 <Ironholds> or rather, "individual freedoms"
May 06 19:56:38 <Ironholds> if you take a negative approach, the tories are your people

May 06 19:57:12 <Qcoder00> jps: But you have to send people that steal cable to jail , otherwise EVRYBODY would - There has to be a a detterent

May 06 19:58:10 <Ironholds> jps: the so-called civil liberties approach; that we have the negative system of "whatever is not forbidden is permitted", and reform to increase freedoms should be nothing more than repealing the law which forbids [action

May 06 19:58:30 <killiondude> oh my.
May 06 19:58:45 <Dusti> Is anyone able to get http://www.coolcolorscosmetics.com/administrator to load for them?
May 06 19:59:07 <Ironholds> the positive approach, on the other hand, is "human rights" - that rights should not simply exist as a legislative void but instead be actively recognised and, indeed, entrenched
May 06 19:59:22 <Ironholds> Dusti: yup
May 06 19:59:26 <jps> Do labour and the lib dems permit less of whatever isn't forbidden?
May 06 19:59:28 <Dusti> :s
May 06 19:59:34 <Dusti> damn, it must be my ISP then
May 06 19:59:49 <tommorris> Hmm. Not sure I agree that human rights/civil liberties boils down to actively legislated vs. legislative void
May 06 20:00:07 <Ironholds> tommorris: the names are rather symbolic, don't you think?
May 06 20:00:14 <Ironholds> although I'd be interested to hear your perspective
May 06 20:00:32 <tommorris> I mean, take the US civil liberties tradition: that's encoded by a form of legislation, albeit ultimate legislation - namely the constitution
May 06 20:00:50 <Ironholds> jps: not at all, on the lib dem front - it's more an approach that simply *not illegallising* say, free speech, isn't enough. You have to actively legislate to protect it
May 06 20:01:18 <tommorris> but if, say, next week, it were found that some important protection like freedom of religion or whatever were actually not part of the constitution, you can bet legislation would be introduced to encode it
May 06 20:01:43 <Ironholds> which is a human rights approach
May 06 20:02:13 <tommorris> but the concept of human rights seems to be about setting up positive liberties as well
May 06 20:02:15 <Ironholds> tommorris: if you want to define it as a distinction between who gets access to the rights, the US is a poor example to pick
May 06 20:02:38 * Mike5 (Mike5@78.146.29.105) has joined #wikipedia-en
May 06 20:02:42 <Ironholds> actually I don't think they'd be able to get freedom of religion in these days
May 06 20:02:48 <jps> it's the same all over the world: oligarchs pay politicians to appeal to the conservative xenophobes and religious, and then demand tax cuts. So what if little things like public higher education have to be jettisoned
May 06 20:02:59 <tommorris> no, I'm saying that the concept of human rights is different from civil liberties in more ways than just deliberative or formal legal ways
May 06 20:03:10 <Ironholds> tommorris: okay, define the two?
May 06 20:03:56 <tommorris> I'd say that roughly civil liberties is negative liberties encoded by specifying areas where the government may not tread
May 06 20:04:07 <jps> what legislation have the tories passed to protect free speech?
May 06 20:04:23 <Ironholds> jps: that'd be positive freedoms, not negative ones. they like negative ones.
May 06 20:04:23 <tommorris> wheras human rights is negative AND positive liberties in the Berlin sense, implemented in whatever way works
May 06 20:04:41 <jps> are you serious?

May 06 20:05:15 <Ironholds> tommorris: makes sense. Of course, the actual distinction is mainly of application
May 06 20:05:55 * Deskana (~dan@wikipedia/deskana) has joined #wikipedia-en
May 06 20:05:59 <tommorris> so, for instance, the ECHR Protocol 1 Article 2 right to education is something which makes no sense under a classic civil liberties system
May 06 20:06:00 <jps> are you talking about strengthening the defense in libel cases?
May 06 20:07:00 <Ironholds> jps: actually it doesn't really strengthen the defence effectively so much as it weakens the claimant
May 06 20:07:02 <Ironholds> but yes
May 06 20:07:35 <jps> Sure it does, tommorris, Bentham and the utilitarians would agree that the average person is more free when most people have the benefit of an education. An uneducated person is measurably less free to engage in trade and commerce, gain employment, etc
May 06 20:07:37 <Ironholds> the major changes don't add anything significant to the defence's position, but they severely limit the claimants. best way to do it, imo.
May 06 20:07:57 <tommorris> ooh, have the libel reform changes been published?
May 06 20:08:03 <Ironholds> tommorris: you didn't see it?
May 06 20:08:08 <tommorris> nay
May 06 20:08:18 <Ironholds> I wrote a blog post on it a while back, but to summarise - no more libel tourism, no automatic right to a jury
May 06 20:08:22 <Ironholds> aaand that's..really about it.
May 06 20:08:26 <tommorris> booo!
May 06 20:08:28 <tommorris> that's not enough!
May 06 20:08:30 <Ironholds> it didn't even reverse the burden of proof
May 06 20:08:32 <Ironholds> seriously
May 06 20:08:48 * tommorris adds "write angry letter to MP" to to-do list

May 06 20:10:10 <tommorris> 2. there's nothing factually inaccurate about this article so we are sealing it at this point.
May 06 20:10:46 <tommorris> the fact that nobody seemed able to grok this distinction is one of the main reasons I'm not very involved in CZ any more ;-)

May 06 20:33:47 <Ironholds> getting the toolserver to query "how many articles has Ironholds written" is great fun
May 06 20:33:50 <Ironholds> it breaks.
May 06 20:33:59 <tommorris> ZT: you list social networking profiles and a human looks at them, usually within 24h
May 06 20:34:15 <tommorris> ZT: when I signed up, I pointed to my blog and Flickr account
May 06 20:35:24 <tommorris> they also used to be tied into a site called BeVerified, where you paid a small amount on a credit card to verify your identity (but they gave it free for Citizendium users or something)
May 06 20:35:35 <Fluffernutter> that seems skanky
May 06 20:35:43 <tommorris> nay, it was all legit
May 06 20:36:02 <tommorris> you could use one of those adult verification sites ;-)

May 06 20:37:15 <Fluffernutter> yeah you could totally game the social network method
May 06 20:37:30 <tommorris> basically, I think the method was like:
May 06 20:37:45 <tommorris> 1. sign up with a real-world e-mail address (rather than a free one) from an employer or university etc
May 06 20:37:59 <tommorris> or 2. point to a bunch of sites that establish your RL identity
May 06 20:38:00 <tommorris> it was flexible
May 06 20:38:17 <tommorris> basically there's just a big text field where you specify who you are with links or whatever
May 06 20:38:21 <geniice> yeah I could kinda have problems with both
May 06 20:38:42 * Fluffernutter wonders if i'm unusual in not really having a "real-world" email, other than the one tied to my job which will disappear when i move on

May 06 20:49:51 <Dragonfly6-7> when I was on OTRS, this band sent us a link to their Wikipedia song, and I saved the mp3
May 06 20:50:04 <Dragonfly6-7> who wants me to put it up for downloads?
May 06 20:50:08 <Hedgehog456> tommorris: Mop! Glorious mop! I love you 'cause you can block guys!
May 06 20:50:13 <Theo10011> there's been a couple of "Wikipedia" songs.
May 06 20:50:34 <Dragonfly6-7> it's by a band called "One Horse Shy"
May 06 20:50:41 <Hedgehog456> Dragonfly6-7: Yes or ChanServ gets it.
May 06 20:50:49 * Hedgehog456 holds ChanServ hostage again
May 06 20:50:58 <tommorris> "Give him the mop! We will not give him the mop! Give him the mop! We will not give him the mop! Give me the mop! We will not give you the mop! Ah, No, no, no, no, no, no, no."

May 06 20:51:08 <Fluffernutter> Ironholds, i discovered recently that one of my current favorite songs features Regina Spektor and i didn't realize it

May 06 21:01:19 <geniice> Sometimes all of our edits are deleted.
May 06 21:01:55 <MuZemike> Always cracks me up that the store manager knows the first two notes to Stairway.
May 06 21:02:13 <geniice> so can we invite Molly Lewis to wikimania ?
May 06 21:02:23 <tommorris> that sounds like a great idea
May 06 21:02:28 <Theo10011> heh
May 06 21:02:30 <tommorris> is Wikimania being streamed this year?
May 06 21:02:35 <Fluffernutter> you can inivite whoever you want, as long as they pay their own way and registration, i'd imagine
May 06 21:02:38 <MuZemike> If that game show Name That Tune was still around, he'd win easily.
May 06 21:02:44 <Theo10011> don't know if she would be up for traveling to Israel.
May 06 21:02:46 <tommorris> because if it isn't, Cee-Lo's Fuck You starts playing
May 06 21:02:59 <MuZemike> Store Manager: "I can name that tune in 2 notes!"
May 06 21:03:49 <Theo10011> So who's going to Wikimania this year?
May 06 21:03:51 <geniice> Fluffernutter you appear to have created a bunch of lists of moths in north america http://toolserver.org/~soxred93/pages/index.php?name=Fluffernutter&namespace=0&redirects=noredirects
May 06 21:03:58 <MuZemike> Where is it again?
May 06 21:04:03 <Fluffernutter> geniice, those were splits of a massively long article
May 06 21:04:08 <Theo10011> Haifa
May 06 21:04:16 <MuZemike> Probably not
May 06 21:04:18 * Doh5678 wonders how far the apprentice candidates have to walk to actually get to the place where they need to go
May 06 21:04:27 <Theo10011> Anyone else!?
May 06 21:04:28 <tommorris> oh, is Apprentice UK starting?
May 06 21:04:30 <Fluffernutter> same with the other set of like five or six near-identical articles that show up for me
May 06 21:05:17 <Doh5678> Tuesday
May 06 21:05:28 <geniice> Fluffernutter otherwise just 4 articles
May 06 21:05:35 <geniice> so za you were correct
May 06 21:05:41 <tommorris> Seriously. Do they not teach the point of analogies in schools these days?
May 06 21:05:59 <tommorris> "You aren't seriously saying those things are the same"
May 06 21:06:28 <tommorris> No, I'm using an ANALOGY. You know, to illustrate that since there are things with property X and Y but NOT Z, that your contention that all X's are Z's is false.
May 06 21:06:37 <tommorris> fuck you Internet. go take a logic class.
May 06 21:07:14 <MuZemike> Yeah, take that, you stupid Internet!

May 06 21:09:27 <topaz> homosexual agenda? *perk*

May 06 21:09:40 <tommorris> 10:00 Love
May 06 21:09:47 <tommorris> 11:00 Happiness
May 06 21:09:54 <tommorris> 12:00 Companionship
May 06 21:09:55 <Fluffernutter> topaz: Fox news recently did a segment talking about how Kurt being gay and accepted is just recruitment propaganda for teh ghey
May 06 21:10:10 <topaz> Kurt? oh, Glee, right.
May 06 21:10:25 <Ironholds> tommorris: 13:00 Evian
May 06 21:10:26 <geniice> Fluffernutter if that was the case they would make batman gay
May 06 21:10:37 <tommorris> yes, because the kids watching Glee are COMPLETELY HETEROSEXUAL.
May 06 21:10:43 <Fluffernutter> geniice batman is totally gay

May 06 21:12:34 <tommorris> it's only a problem if they join the roving lesbian biker gangs
May 06 21:12:41 * Fluffernutter glares at tommorris

May 06 21:21:54 <KimiNewt> and their non-bloody priests, too
May 06 21:22:09 <topaz> maybe the local parish is coming to admit that she's an improvement over the status quo.

May 06 21:24:45 <Ironholds> Theo10011: the WMF is not the blind leading the blind
May 06 21:24:49 <tommorris> I'd pass a law making it murder for Jehovah's Witnesses to deny their kids blood transfusions and to be officially declared by the state to be Quite Stupid for doing so in the past.
May 06 21:24:50 <Ironholds> it dreams of being that good
May 06 21:25:01 <Ironholds> it is the deaf mutes leading the failed MBA students

May 06 21:26:09 <Ironholds> Theo10011: sorry, WMUK
May 06 21:26:09 <tommorris> no, that's a description of WMUK I think

May 06 21:26:15 <Qcoder00> tommorris: You'd pass a law that made it a crime to deny your kids medical treatment ?

May 06 21:26:34 <Theo10011> I'm all for persecuting mimes.
May 06 21:26:34 <Ironholds> but other than that,e h
May 06 21:26:39 <tommorris> Qcoder00: no, I'd make it a crime to deny kids medial treatment for fucking stupid reasons
May 06 21:26:49 <tommorris> like "God doesn't want you to have a blood transfusion" - that's a stupid reason
May 06 21:27:16 <Hedgehog456> or "I want you to /die/ and meet God in Heaven"
May 06 21:27:26 <Ironholds> Hedgehog456: says the bible-thumper
May 06 21:27:41 <Qcoder00> But don't people have a right to hold faith based viewpoints?
May 06 21:27:48 <Hedgehog456> ^
May 06 21:27:53 <tommorris> yes, but they don't have the right to kill their kids as a result of their idiotic ideas
May 06 21:27:58 <Qcoder00> >> ##politics exists ...
May 06 21:27:59 * Hedgehog456 bashes Ironholds with a Bible
May 06 21:28:11 <Ironholds> Qcoder00: yes, they do, but they don't have the right to make rational judgments for the health of other people based on them
May 06 21:28:12 <Hedgehog456> ##politics doesn't exist.
May 06 21:28:17 <Hedgehog456> It's all a lie.
May 06 21:28:20 <tommorris> Qcoder00: AIDS exists also, but I don't want it.

May 06 22:33:45 <KimiNewt> and I don't see how that in particular would familiarise kids with programming and the like
May 06 22:33:50 <KimiNewt> only because it runs linux?
May 06 22:34:58 <tommorris> just did something very clever in Python, but had no idea how I did it. That's a recurring theme for me. ;-)

May 06 23:47:00 <milo_went> good question, dragon. apparently 2 gay couples on a single show is TOO MUCH.
May 06 23:47:11 <milo_went> moden family, one couple, must be OK.
May 06 23:47:12 <milo_went> modern*
May 06 23:47:34 <Randomguy83> someone just trolled my userpage with "ur GAY ur GAY ur GAY...etc"

May 06 23:49:37 <Meepsheep> It is a lie
May 06 23:49:41 <milo_went> i thought enc. dramatica grew up and is now trying to monetize itself.

May 06 23:52:58 <Randomguy83> ?!
May 06 23:53:09 <milo_went> wasn't jack already banned or something?
May 06 23:53:13 <Randomguy83> no
May 06 23:53:22 <Randomguy83> just some strict terms or something
May 06 23:53:26 <Randomguy83> idk
May 06 23:53:52 <milo_went> i believe he was editing under some IP recently doing whatever trolling he wanted to do, i saw somediscussoin on that
May 06 23:54:05 <Randomguy83> incivility
May 06 23:54:14 <Randomguy83> I'd oppose the ban anyway...

May 06 23:54:22 <Randomguy83> oops
May 06 23:54:29 <Randomguy83> meant to copy it elsewhere...
May 06 23:54:38 <Meepsheep> I don't think that anyone should be banned
May 06 23:54:52 <milo_went> obviously some people shouldbe banned.
May 06 23:54:53 <Randomguy83> no?
May 06 23:54:59 <Randomguy83> how about Zsfgseg
May 06 23:55:09 <milo_went> like anyone that annoys me.
May 06 23:55:10 <Meepsheep> milo_went, like who?
May 06 23:55:14 <Randomguy83> the civil troll who outs people.
May 06 23:55:33 <milo_went> total vandal accounts, for one obvious category.
May 06 23:55:48 <Meepsheep> I don't think that vandals really have bad intentions
May 06 23:55:54 <Randomguy83> hmm
May 06 23:55:57 <milo_went> lol
May 06 23:56:12 <Meepsheep> I think they are just misguided
May 06 23:56:20 <Randomguy83> how about "good" users who make sock farms?
May 06 23:56:34 <Meepsheep> Socks are acceptable
May 06 23:56:36 <milo_went> their intentions are irrelevant when they insert the middle name of "cocksucker" into BLPS all over the place, for example.
