2008-02-01 23:37 < loader> end up living means to die?
2008-02-01 23:38 < Random832> loader: probably no; need more context
2008-02-01 23:39 < bumm13> 7yu6
2008-02-01 23:39 < loader> and so she ended up living in Moscow, under very poor living conditions at times.
2008-02-01 23:39 < Mike_H> loader: Oh, no
2008-02-01 23:39 < Random832> ok, no
2008-02-01 23:39 < Mike_H> it means she had no other option
2008-02-01 23:39 < Mike_H> so she lived in Moscow
2008-02-01 23:39 < Random832> to "end up" something means, right, what Mike_H said
2008-02-01 23:39 < Xihix> So, yeah, STP is reuniting.
2008-02-01 23:39 < Mike_H> There were no options for her in Rostov
2008-02-01 23:39 < Mike_H> so she moved to Moscow
2008-02-01 23:39 < kyorosuke> "As a result..."
2008-02-01 23:40 < loader> aha
2008-02-01 23:40 < loader> she moved to Moscow because she was not able to live in Rostov
2008-02-01 23:41 < loader> or someting around?
2008-02-01 23:41 < Mike_H> loader: She could live in Rostov but she would not have any opportunities to better her life
2008-02-01 23:41 < Mike_H> she moved to Moscow to find a better life.
2008-02-01 23:42 < loader> actually in Russian that I have said is almost the same )))
2008-02-01 23:42 < loader> our mentality, you know
2008-02-01 23:42 < loader> ))
2008-02-01 23:43 < Mike_H> loader: Natasha does the same kind of smiley
2008-02-01 23:43 < Mike_H> on her myspace
2008-02-01 23:43 < Mike_H> like Americans use :) and Russians don't do the eyes
2008-02-01 23:44 < dbmoodb> damn right we have eyes in your eyes
2008-02-01 23:44 < kim_bruning> ^_^
2008-02-01 23:45 < loader> lol
2008-02-01 23:45 < loader> :)
2008-02-01 23:45 * kim_bruning adds to the smiley confusian by going asian, or something
2008-02-01 23:46 * Yeaux|rly has thundersnow
2008-02-01 23:46 < loader> maybe it is because we shuld to reach button 6 to make eyes (in russian keyboard layout it is colon)
2008-02-01 23:46 < loader> ))
2008-02-01 23:50 < OverlordQ> ^___________^

2008-02-01 23:55 < loader> Hmm Galkina is nice... But not my type
2008-02-01 23:55 < loader> ))
2008-02-01 23:55 < NCC-1701> loader: Why do you put )) at the end of most of your lines?
2008-02-01 23:55 < NCC-1701> rather, some
2008-02-01 23:59 < loader> smile
2008-02-01 23:59 < loader> y
2008-02-02 00:03 < Mike_H> NCC-1701: In Russian, the smiley that we would do
2008-02-02 00:03 < Mike_H> :)
2008-02-02 00:03 < Mike_H> it's done without eyes
2008-02-02 00:03 < Mike_H> So just )
2008-02-02 00:03 < Mike_H> and more )))))))
2008-02-02 00:03 < Mike_H> that means more happiness
2008-02-02 00:03 < loader> Yes lol
2008-02-02 00:03 < loader> ))
2008-02-02 00:04 < Mike_H> NCC-1701: The logic in Russian is that you don't need to see someone's eyes to recognize a smile.
2008-02-02 00:04 < loader> logic is that button 6 is too far...
2008-02-02 00:05 < Mike_H> hahaha
2008-02-02 00:05 < loader> or...
2008-02-02 00:05 < loader> hmm
2008-02-02 00:06 < loader> on russian layout on the place : is letter ж
2008-02-02 00:06 < loader> instead of : is letter
2008-02-02 00:06 < loader> I just unaccustomed
2008-02-02 00:07 < Random832> what letter? i just see an "ae" letter, like in norwegian
2008-02-02 00:07 < Random832> or icelandic
2008-02-02 00:08 < Random832> that's not russian
2008-02-02 00:09 < Demi> i see the ae ligature as well, we're using different single-byte character set encodings // the official character set encoding of the channel is utf-8
2008-02-02 00:10 < loader> how I can change my chareacters to utf-8
2008-02-02 00:10 < loader> ?
2008-02-02 00:10 < BoL> I think it's on your preferences
2008-02-02 00:10 < bumm13> it should be
2008-02-02 00:10 < BoL> if that doesn't help, go to #wikipedia-en-help
2008-02-02 00:10 < Demi> don't know, depends on your client and whatnot
2008-02-02 00:10 < BoL> #wikipedia-en (for me)
2008-02-02 00:10 < bumm13> he's using a current mIRC version
2008-02-02 00:11 < Demi> it doesn't work, for example, on mine
2008-02-02 00:11 < arcimboldo_> You can try /charset
2008-02-02 00:11 < Warpath> or get xchat
2008-02-02 00:11 < arcimboldo_> Or /charset utf-8
2008-02-02 00:11 < loader> CHARSET Unknown command

2008-02-02 00:18 < loader> to direct

2008-02-02 00:19 < kyorosuke> ah, like the director of a television show?
2008-02-02 00:19 < loader> ))
2008-02-02 00:20 < loader> there are almost 15 meanings of word direct in dictionary
2008-02-02 00:20 < OverlordQ> probably the photographer
2008-02-02 00:20 < OverlordQ> but yes, like the director
2008-02-02 00:22 < loader> I understood abbreviation wtf rightly?
2008-02-02 00:22 < loader> Or I missed something?
2008-02-02 00:24 < OverlordQ> no, probably understood it correctly :)
2008-02-02 00:24 < loader> hmm, ok
2008-02-02 00:24 < RINNNNNNNNNNNNNN> loader: "In Soviet Russia" is a cultural joke.
2008-02-02 00:25 < loader> Please explain
2008-02-02 00:25 < loader> :)
2008-02-02 00:25 < Rinn> It isn't meant to be read literally.
2008-02-02 00:26 < loader> but what does it mean?
2008-02-02 00:26 < kyorosuke> it's derivative of an old Yakoff Smirnov joke ("In America, everyone is always looking for a party. In Soviet Russia, the Party is always looking for you.")
2008-02-02 00:27 < Random832> [[Keyboard layout]] needs serious work

2008-02-02 00:33 < NCC-1701> AK-47?
2008-02-02 00:33 < doomssassin> Certainly something overly sappy.
2008-02-02 00:33 < doomssassin> I can never just throw the horns up and relax.
2008-02-02 00:34 < loader> Uhh All will be ok
2008-02-02 00:34 < arcimboldo_> We should have something like "the typical Wikipedia geek's guide to dancing"

2008-02-02 00:36 * kmccoy was stopped in a taxi cab by a group of fifteen men (barely men, maybe 18-20 years old) with AK-47s.

2008-02-02 00:36 < arcimboldo_> symode09: that's yesterday's news ...
2008-02-02 00:36 < MessedRocker> kmccoy, sounds traumatizing
2008-02-02 00:36 < MessedRocker> how did you get out of it alive
2008-02-02 00:36 < arcimboldo_> O_O
2008-02-02 00:37 < arcimboldo_> o_o
2008-02-02 00:37 < loader> it is joke, right?
2008-02-02 00:37 < kmccoy> MessedRocker, it was scary. I picked up my cell phone and dialed my manager and asked him to just stay on the line (I'm not sure why, so that he could hear me getting shot I guess), but he hung up, not really understanding.
2008-02-02 00:38 < kmccoy> I guess they were police, though they weren't very well marked. They looked at our passports and told us the taxi driver didn't have proper papers and arrested him after he called us another car.
2008-02-02 00:38 < loader> Ahh
2008-02-02 00:38 < loader> It is nothing...

2008-02-02 00:40 < kmccoy> I was just trying to figure out if they were expecting a bribe or what. I think they were genuinely just interested in checking the driver's papers, though.
2008-02-02 00:44 < loader> <kmccoy> Where are you from?
2008-02-02 00:44 < kmccoy> loader, Minnesota, but this event happened in Guyana.

2008-02-02 00:48 < kmccoy> loader, so it seems. It's not a very safe place to be a cop.

2008-02-02 01:08 < Gwern-away> I suppose you could argue that looks of the summer is broader than just clothes you wear in summer, but a fashion ignoramus like myself regards them as equivalent
2008-02-02 01:08 < Gwern-away> Xihix: I believe I adequately expatiated my opinions earlier

2008-02-02 02:08 < doomssassin> There's a change in the weather....
2008-02-02 02:08 < JessicaTaylor> ok...
2008-02-02 02:09 < doomssassin> I keep blowin' down the road.
2008-02-02 02:09 < doomssassin> Lynyrd skynyrd.
2008-02-02 02:09 < Lubaf> Anyway.
2008-02-02 02:09 < doomssassin> On top of a bit of a bourbon buzz.
2008-02-02 02:09 < Lubaf> How's masturbation?
2008-02-02 02:09 < Lubaf> Damn. No Ceiling_Cat about.
2008-02-02 02:09 * MessedRocker needs to get some ACT Restoring Mouthwash
2008-02-02 02:10 < Lubaf> MessedRocker: What's new in the world of Rock Band?
2008-02-02 02:10 < MessedRocker> i don't friggin play Rock Band
2008-02-02 02:12 * NCC-1701 wants some Cr2O7(NH4)2(s)
2008-02-02 02:16 < NCC-1701> hello torch

2008-02-02 02:20 < torch> hi
2008-02-02 02:25 < Daniel_Bush> Why was Axeman banned?
2008-02-02 02:26 < JessicaTaylor> erm
2008-02-02 02:26 < JessicaTaylor> Because he's an Axeman
2008-02-02 02:34 < NCC-1701> amidaniel!
2008-02-02 02:35 * brown_cat holds onto amidaniel's shirt
2008-02-02 02:35 < NCC-1701> Yayz, talk page rant
2008-02-02 02:36 < NCC-1701> Hehe, "My edits were not vandalism!"
2008-02-02 02:36 < NCC-1701> Sure, replacing a page with "stop reverting my edits you cunts!" is not vandalism
2008-02-02 02:41 < Zach> kirk, you ready to blast off or something?
2008-02-02 02:41 < NCC-1701> ?
2008-02-02 02:41 < NCC-1701> Zach: ?
2008-02-02 02:42 < Zach> in the starship enterprise, under captain kirk
2008-02-02 02:42 < NCC-1701> Oh
2008-02-02 02:42 < Zach> star trekkin, across the universe!
2008-02-02 02:42 * NCC-1701 is recharging the dilithium matrix
2008-02-02 02:42 * NCC-1701 in spacedock
2008-02-02 02:42 < Zach> remember to use a 1:1 matter:anti-matter ratio
2008-02-02 02:43 < NCC-1701> O_O
2008-02-02 02:43 < Zach> uh, i guess you aren't as trekkie as i am.
2008-02-02 02:43 * NCC-1701 knows what that means
2008-02-02 02:44 < AdamBishop> I used to live in apartment 1702, I was so disappointed I wasn't in 1701
2008-02-02 02:44 * NCC-1701 is surprised because why wouldn't you use a 1:1 matter/antimatter ratio?!
2008-02-02 02:44 * NCC-1701 pokes an engineer to fix the transporter
2008-02-02 02:45 < brown_cat> OH NOES!!!
2008-02-02 02:46 * NCC-1701 pokes Zach to fix the transporter
2008-02-02 02:46 < brown_cat> ZACH IS A STAR TREK NERD!
2008-02-02 02:46 < Zach> i caahnt do it cahptin
2008-02-02 02:46 < NCC-1701> X-D
2008-02-02 02:46 < christel> beam me up
2008-02-02 02:46 * brown_cat takes Zach back in time inside his flux capacitor
2008-02-02 02:46 < doomssassin> Honestly, star trek sucked.
2008-02-02 02:46 < doomssassin> I mean, it was rubbish.
2008-02-02 02:46 < doomssassin> Christmas lights and bad acting.
2008-02-02 02:46 * NCC-1701 refuses to do so, the transporter is b0rked and would cause you to materialize in space
2008-02-02 02:46 < christel> doomssassin: dude, be careful!
2008-02-02 02:47 < doomssassin> christel : It's true though.
2008-02-02 02:47 * brown_cat gives doomssassin a cookie
2008-02-02 02:47 < NCC-1701> doomssassin: You probably have never watched a single episode
2008-02-02 02:47 < christel> people have been klined for less!
2008-02-02 02:47 < NCC-1701> K-LINE!
2008-02-02 02:47 < doomssassin> NCC-1701 : I watched 5 minutes of an episode.
2008-02-02 02:47 < doomssassin> Star wars wasn't much better.
2008-02-02 02:48 < jeremyb> first star wars was episode 1
2008-02-02 02:48 < NCC-1701> doomssassin: Exactly, you never watched an episode completely, so how would you know?
2008-02-02 02:48 < doomssassin> NCC-1701 : The acting was so bad, I couldn't watch it.
2008-02-02 02:48 * NCC-1701 beams up christel now that the transporter works
2008-02-02 02:48 < jeremyb> first star trek wasn't until sometime in the last year
2008-02-02 02:48 * jeremyb goes back to cave
2008-02-02 02:48 < christel> ack, i must admit i prefer star trek to starwars
2008-02-02 02:48 < NCC-1701> doomssassin: The 10 movies and 6 TV series would tend to differ
2008-02-02 02:49 < NCC-1701> Star Trek > Star Wars
2008-02-02 02:49 < christel> NCC-1701: why thank you
2008-02-02 02:49 < doomssassin> NCC-1701 : How about we look at James Bond compared to those two?
2008-02-02 02:49 < NCC-1701> doomssassin: James Bond is as good as the ST movies
2008-02-02 02:49 < NCC-1701> and vice versa
2008-02-02 02:49 < jeremyb> never seen an ST movie
2008-02-02 02:49 < jeremyb> 'night
2008-02-02 02:49 < NCC-1701> jeremyb: You have 10 to chose from
2008-02-02 02:50 < NCC-1701> And 11 coming out later this year
2008-02-02 02:50 < doomssassin> Nope. My ex girlfriend LOVED star trek. It was RUBBISH.
2008-02-02 02:50 * NCC-1701 will probably watch ST XI
2008-02-02 02:50 < NCC-1701> doomssassin: You never watched a complete episode, you couldn't make an unbiased decision
2008-02-02 02:50 < christel> ack, i think i prefer star trek to james bond also
2008-02-02 02:50 < christel> :p
2008-02-02 02:50 * NCC-1701 has the entire TOS and ST2: The Wrath of Khan on DVD
2008-02-02 02:51 < NCC-1701> Should I get ST3 or ST4?
2008-02-02 02:51 * doomssassin turns on "Thunderball".
2008-02-02 02:51 * NCC-1701 has Tunderball on BETA! HA!
2008-02-02 02:52 < doomssassin> 11 BILLION dollars to date from James Bond movies.
2008-02-02 02:52 < christel> NCC-1701: i adore the search for spock (3)
2008-02-02 02:52 < NCC-1701> doomssassin: over 30 billion for Star Trek
2008-02-02 02:52 < christel> tho, the voyage home isnt bad or anything
2008-02-02 02:52 < doomssassin> NCC-1701 : They don't run star trek marathons on spike tv. :o
2008-02-02 02:52 * NCC-1701 will probably end up getting both, and ST1 anyway
2008-02-02 02:53 < doomssassin> Actually, I think they do.
2008-02-02 02:53 < NCC-1701> doomssassin: Yes they do, TNG, DS9 and VOY
2008-02-02 02:53 < doomssassin> But it's all horrible.
2008-02-02 02:53 * brown_cat cries inside a little
2008-02-02 02:53 < NCC-1701> And they are airing the Remastered Original Series on NBC
2008-02-02 02:53 < doomssassin> They don't have Astons in Star Trek.
2008-02-02 02:53 < NCC-1701> (can't complain about CG now!)
2008-02-02 02:54 < NCC-1701> doomssassin: But they do have Klingons, Vulcans, Andorians, Ferengi, Borg, Kazon, the list goes on...
2008-02-02 02:54 < doomssassin> ... Who would rather have a Klingon than an Aston Martin?
2008-02-02 02:54 < doomssassin> You've got to be mental?
2008-02-02 02:54 < doomssassin> An Aston Martin is the automotive equivalent of God Herself.
2008-02-02 02:55 < Rinn> I've never seen a full episode of any Star Trek series ever.
2008-02-02 02:55 < NCC-1701> doomssassin: ...and Galaxy Class heavy cruisers, which could destroy the surface of a planet in seconds while leaving the planet intact otherwise
2008-02-02 02:55 < NCC-1701> doomssassin: And yes, a Klingon could do my assassin work for me
2008-02-02 02:55 < doomssassin> NCC-1701 : The DB9 is better.
2008-02-02 02:55 < doomssassin> And the DB7 lookd better than that.
2008-02-02 02:56 < NCC-1701> DB9?
2008-02-02 02:56 < doomssassin> Aston's Flagship.
2008-02-02 02:56 < NCC-1701> doomssassin: AHA! Galaxy Class is TNG, TOS is Constitution Class!
2008-02-02 02:57 < pengo> i got this usb case for a sata drive and i can't work out how to open it and now i feel stupid
2008-02-02 02:57 < NCC-1701> Then there's Tahoe class, Interpid, Prometheus, etc...
2008-02-02 02:57 < NCC-1701> pengo: Instructions
2008-02-02 02:57 < doomssassin> NCC-1701 : And there's the Rapide, the Vanquish, the Vantage, and the DBS.
2008-02-02 02:57 < NCC-1701> ...Sovereign Class...
2008-02-02 02:57 < doomssassin> DB5.
2008-02-02 02:57 < NCC-1701> And who could forget the Doomsday Machine
2008-02-02 02:57 < doomssassin> DB3.
2008-02-02 02:57 < AdamBishop> WHO CARES
2008-02-02 02:57 < christel> i was lucky enough to have a star trek captain at my graduation actually :)
2008-02-02 02:58 < NCC-1701> O_O
2008-02-02 02:58 < christel> hehe
2008-02-02 02:58 < doomssassin> I know someone who got to see Seth Mcfarlane at his graduation.
2008-02-02 02:58 < Rinn> Who's that?
2008-02-02 02:58 * NCC-1701 has a TNG era command uniform buried somewhere...
2008-02-02 02:58 < doomssassin> Strictly speaking, he's my lawyer. But I know him.
2008-02-02 02:59 * doomssassin has a poster with a DB7 on it. The automotive version of Uma Thurman.
2008-02-02 02:59 < jeremyb> AdamBishop: would you grant RFR on IRC or rather have official request?
2008-02-02 02:59 < jeremyb> (twinkle doesn't play nice with DOM yet)
2008-02-02 03:00 < doomssassin> Perhaps the best looking thing to EVER grace planet earth.
2008-02-02 03:00 * jeremyb tends to have borked browsers often as well
2008-02-02 03:00 < AdamBishop> would I what in the what now?
2008-02-02 03:00 < doomssassin> Maybe the SR-71 is ahead of that.
2008-02-02 03:00 < jeremyb> AdamBishop: you're sysop right?
2008-02-02 03:00 < jeremyb> [[WP:RFR]]
2008-02-02 03:01 < AdamBishop> on IRC? I don't think so
2008-02-02 03:01 < zocky> http://uk.reuters.com/article/domesticNews/idUKL0167874620080201 <--- beyond belief
2008-02-02 03:01 < AdamBishop> I am an admin on Wikipedia if that's what you mean
2008-02-02 03:01 < doomssassin> NCC-1701, you've gotta realise star trek is fake, buddy. DB9 is real. And can move entire planets with it's engine.
2008-02-02 03:02 < NCC-1701> doomssassin: Then it isn't SciFi :P
2008-02-02 03:02 < doomssassin> Ah, but I digest, I must be honest, I have a truck. At least it has a Nissan Z engine in it. :-\
2008-02-02 03:02 < pengo> NCC-1701: the instruction may be on a small cd-rom. but i have no cdrom drive
2008-02-02 03:02 < doomssassin> Right quick it is, too.
2008-02-02 03:02 < NCC-1701> pengo: No paper manual?
2008-02-02 03:02 < jeremyb> AdamBishop: yes that is... twinkle isn't behaving in my current browser (not DOM compliant)
2008-02-02 03:02 < pengo> NCC-1701: none
2008-02-02 03:03 < ggreer> no CD drive? wtf
2008-02-02 03:03 < pengo> ggreer: small laptop
2008-02-02 03:03 < AdamBishop> oh, I see. Sure I can do that
2008-02-02 03:03 < NCC-1701> doomssassin: I myself would rather have a starship with a length of half a kilometer than a sports car that could go 200 MPH, the starship could go 1.5x10^90 times the speed of light
2008-02-02 03:03 < AdamBishop> User:JeremyB?
2008-02-02 03:03 < ggreer> pengo: you don't have a desktop machine?
2008-02-02 03:03 < pengo> i wish i could say i needed to install this thing to give me a cd drive, but that would be a lie
2008-02-02 03:03 < jeremyb> AdamBishop: lowercase
2008-02-02 03:04 < ggreer> heh
2008-02-02 03:04 < NCC-1701> pengo: What version of Windows?
2008-02-02 03:04 < pengo> ggreer: i'm not getting up just to work out how to open this empty case :/
2008-02-02 03:04 < pengo> NCC-1701: irrelevant
2008-02-02 03:04 < ggreer> hah, lazy bum
2008-02-02 03:04 < NCC-1701> Oh
2008-02-02 03:04 < doomssassin> NCC-1701 : Hate to break it to you, but the Aston is actually obtainable. The ship is NOT.
2008-02-02 03:04 < arcimboldo_> http://www.sportscarcup.com/aston-martin-db9/
2008-02-02 03:04 < ggreer> NCC-1701: you can't go faster than light :P
2008-02-02 03:04 < ggreer> also sports cars are cool
2008-02-02 03:04 < ggreer> especially convertible ones
2008-02-02 03:04 < arcimboldo_> Looks like fish that opens its mouth a bit too wide.
2008-02-02 03:05 < doomssassin> It looks AMAZINGLY BEAUTIFUL.
2008-02-02 03:05 < doomssassin> Prettiest thing on the planet. Except maybe the DBR9.
2008-02-02 03:05 < doomssassin> http://www.seriouswheels.com/pics-2005/2005-Aston-Martin-DBR9-SA-1280x960.jpg
2008-02-02 03:05 < ggreer> yeah, that's a very nice looking car
2008-02-02 03:05 < ggreer> and it sounds awesome
2008-02-02 03:05 < NCC-1701> ggreer: Actually, Steven Hawkings would disagree with you, he says that using Star Trek's method of space-time modification (if possible), you could manipulate space/time, defeat the time dilation factor, and go faster than light
2008-02-02 03:05 < jeremyb> haha, i just noticed the sinebot left me a talk page message... i triggered it in his sandbox (it could be assumed i know about signing)
2008-02-02 03:05 * NCC-1701 can explain the entire theory if you would like
2008-02-02 03:05 < doomssassin> That's the valves in the exhaust, in fairness.
2008-02-02 03:05 < ggreer> NCC-1701: ok, you get back to me when I can buy one of those
2008-02-02 03:06 < NCC-1701> ggreer: Ask in 2395
2008-02-02 03:06 < doomssassin> I really LOVE astons though.
2008-02-02 03:06 < ggreer> for now I'll take my mazda mx-5 and kawasaki ninja
2008-02-02 03:06 < jeremyb> AdamBishop: thx
2008-02-02 03:06 < AdamBishop> ok jeremy, done
2008-02-02 03:06 < doomssassin> And I'll take my Nissan Bucky with it's Z engine and modified suspension. Sleeper for sure.
2008-02-02 03:06 < ggreer> doomssassin: nice!
2008-02-02 03:07 < doomssassin> And the Jet Ski and boat I can tow behind it. :P
2008-02-02 03:07 < ggreer> I went the impractical bright red route
2008-02-02 03:07 < NCC-1701> ggreer: In theory, faster than light travel is attainable under our laws of physics, and is a possiblity
2008-02-02 03:07 < jeremyb> hrmm
2008-02-02 03:07 < ggreer> so far I've gotten two girls tell me nice car and one guy :(
2008-02-02 03:07 < doomssassin> But yes, it is quite nice, if you get over having vinyl seats, a ride quality such that your arse hurts after 10 minutes, and a noise that'll give you a splitter after an hour or so.
2008-02-02 03:07 < jeremyb> no confirmation page
2008-02-02 03:07 < ggreer> and 0 speeding tickets, but I attribute that to lucke
2008-02-02 03:07 < ggreer> *luck
2008-02-02 03:08 < doomssassin> Mine is silverish blue.
2008-02-02 03:08 < doomssassin> Have a look, if you'd like.
2008-02-02 03:08 < ggreer> heh
2008-02-02 03:08 < doomssassin> I got pictures.
2008-02-02 03:08 < ggreer> well if you want the best handling you have to compromise comfort
2008-02-02 03:08 < doomssassin> I installed a CB radio as well, and a Valentine V1.
2008-02-02 03:08 < NCC-1701> The funny part of the "Warp drive" thing is that NASA looked into it, and got promising results to a point
2008-02-02 03:08 < ggreer> ooh, how's the V1? I heard they're excellent radar detectors
2008-02-02 03:08 < doomssassin> It's impeccable.
2008-02-02 03:09 < doomssassin> Early warning every time. Although I usually have a CB report before I have a V1 report.
2008-02-02 03:09 * jeremyb wishes there was a decent diff script that handles http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Template:NPR_New_York&diff=187571489&oldid=170950910 ok
2008-02-02 03:09 < ggreer> heh
2008-02-02 03:09 < doomssassin> I'm hoping to get alex royish counter measures installed.
2008-02-02 03:09 * jeremyb runs to sleep
2008-02-02 03:09 < ggreer> doomssassin: have you ever heard of anyone putting a V1 on a motorcycle?
2008-02-02 03:09 < doomssassin> Cause honestly, I've had the truck at 145 with a load of pedal left.
2008-02-02 03:09 < doomssassin> ggreer : Yep.
2008-02-02 03:09 < NCC-1701> doomssassin: Fireworks :P
2008-02-02 03:09 < doomssassin> I used to own one, and had a really rubbish Escort on it.
2008-02-02 03:09 < ggreer> I'm sure the rear detection wouldn't work since the driver is in the way, but it would be much more useful
2008-02-02 03:10 < jeremyb> doomssassin: kph?
2008-02-02 03:10 < doomssassin> jeremyb : mph.
2008-02-02 03:10 < ggreer> jeremyb: lol
2008-02-02 03:10 < doomssassin> It's got a 4.10 diff in it too.
2008-02-02 03:10 < jeremyb> ummm... desert?
2008-02-02 03:10 < doomssassin> No, just an interstate LATE at night.
2008-02-02 03:10 < ggreer> my miata runs out of gears at around 130mph. if the gears weren't so short it could definitely go faster
2008-02-02 03:11 < doomssassin> No power in a Miata, unfortunately.
2008-02-02 03:11 < jeremyb> doomssassin: runflat?
2008-02-02 03:11 < ggreer> but 7k rpm in 5th gear == 133mph or so
2008-02-02 03:11 < ggreer> yeah, it has great handling though
2008-02-02 03:11 < doomssassin> Yeah, they're a blsat at handling.
2008-02-02 03:11 < doomssassin> Better than an S2000, in my mind.
2008-02-02 03:11 < doomssassin> Only thing that comes close is a Caterham or a Lotus.
2008-02-02 03:11 < ggreer> heh, my boss has an elise
2008-02-02 03:11 < ggreer> that thing is insane
2008-02-02 03:11 < NCC-1701> My cousins Porsche that (unfortunately) has a speed governor in it, and can't go over 140, but really easily could should the governor be, erm, "disabled
2008-02-02 03:11 < NCC-1701> "
2008-02-02 03:11 < ggreer> some bitch backed into him. the repair bill was $8k
2008-02-02 03:12 < doomssassin> Whoa! It's all plastic, innit?
2008-02-02 03:12 < ggreer> fiberglass, yeah
2008-02-02 03:12 < doomssassin> Not much carbon fiber on an elise...
2008-02-02 03:12 < ggreer> she hit him at like 5mph, it was ridiculous
2008-02-02 03:12 < doomssassin> I want to see the new Esprit.
2008-02-02 03:12 * NCC-1701 is now going to bed, good night
2008-02-02 03:12 < doomssassin> Someone hits my truck, they'll need 8,000 dollars worth of dental repairs, and a further 4,000 in car repairs.
2008-02-02 03:13 < ggreer> nn star trek nerd :)
2008-02-02 03:13 < ggreer> hah
2008-02-02 03:13 < ggreer> it's sad that my boss's insurance is less than mine. apparently 22 year old males have to pay out the ass if they get anything close to a "sporty" car
2008-02-02 03:13 < FastLizard4|zzzz> 'night
2008-02-02 03:13 < ggreer> if car is rear wheel drive, pay > $3k/year
2008-02-02 03:13 < jeremyb> oh that's who ncc-* is
2008-02-02 03:14 < AdamBishop> hmm. I never thought a laughing baby would be creepy
2008-02-02 03:14 < doomssassin> See, I get off at like... 1200 a year.
2008-02-02 03:14 < doomssassin> And I'm only 18.
2008-02-02 03:14 < ggreer> lucky
2008-02-02 03:14 < doomssassin> Well, it's a truck. With a supposedly sub 100 hp motor.
2008-02-02 03:14 < AdamBishop> but he's too young to know how to laugh and he is apparently sleeping with his eyes open
2008-02-02 03:14 < ggreer> oh, right
2008-02-02 03:15 < AdamBishop> I guess I should go...
2008-02-02 03:15 < ggreer> that's clever, since you don't have to disclose any modifications you've made to the car
2008-02-02 03:15 < doomssassin> And it's an 1986 truck. But it goes like stink, and it sounds like a million bucks.
2008-02-02 03:17 < doomssassin> I also have a sports car, but I garage it most of the time.
2008-02-02 03:17 < doomssassin> It also handles superbly, but it needs some work.
2008-02-02 03:18 < ggreer> yeah, I don't drive my miata much either. it's a '97 and it has < 70k miles on it
2008-02-02 03:18 < nds> anybody game to help with a copyvio procedural question?
2008-02-02 03:19 < doomssassin> ggreer : Heh.
2008-02-02 03:19 < doomssassin> Mine is a 74. With 22,000 miles.
2008-02-02 03:20 < ggreer> haha
2008-02-02 03:20 < Dodde> Is there a way to list all pages under a certain category without having to click on each and one of all sub categories to check the content?
2008-02-02 03:20 < doomssassin> ggreer : http://photos-a.ak.facebook.com/photos-ak-sctm/v183/240/67/555700599/n555700599_887752_249.jpg
2008-02-02 03:20 < doomssassin> That's my sweetheart.
2008-02-02 03:21 < doomssassin> http://hs.facebook.com/photo.php?pid=887749&id=555700599
2008-02-02 03:21 < doomssassin> And that's the runner.
2008-02-02 03:22 < ggreer> heh, how'd you destroy that prop?
2008-02-02 03:22 < doomssassin> :P
2008-02-02 03:22 < jeremyb> Dodde: i've wondered the same thing but never bothered to investigate
2008-02-02 03:22 < doomssassin> Water got REALY low at the end of the season last year.
2008-02-02 03:22 < doomssassin> I backed out off of the trailer... directly into rocks.
2008-02-02 03:22 < nds> Dodde: which cat are you looking at ?
2008-02-02 03:22 < ggreer> oops
2008-02-02 03:23 < jeremyb> damn cluebot's still fast
2008-02-02 03:24 < doomssassin> ggreer : I wakeboard.
2008-02-02 03:24 < Dodde> nds right now on svwikt, but generally categories with lots of subcategories and sub-sub categories with just one or two articles in each category
2008-02-02 03:24 < doomssassin> But yeah, I quite like my Triumph. :D
2008-02-02 03:24 < Dodde> nds: not seldom you can find 50 articles devided into 30 categories
2008-02-02 03:24 < nds> Dodde: does this sort of category layout work for you -> http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category:Italian_people
2008-02-02 03:25 < doomssassin> I have the soft-top for it as well, but I put the hard top on for racing.
2008-02-02 03:25 < Dodde> nds: yes, but I need all sub categories to be included in the article list
2008-02-02 03:26 < ggreer> cool
2008-02-02 03:26 < nds> yeah, a recursive search that produces a flat list... that certainly would be ncie :-)
2008-02-02 03:26 < doomssassin> It's.... blindingly quick for it's age.
2008-02-02 03:27 < Dodde> nds: normally I generate my own list for whatever purpose from the dump, but now I need a more updated list
2008-02-02 03:30 < doomssassin> ggreer : Smaller than the miata. By quite a bit.
2008-02-02 03:35 < pengo> NCC-1701: nup. cd rom manual doesn't help :/

2008-02-02 03:49 < Mike_H> I like her voice
2008-02-02 03:49 < Mike_H> it's husky
2008-02-02 03:49 < Mike_H> not peppy and banal like most pop singers
2008-02-02 03:50 < triona> Not a bad piano player either...
2008-02-02 03:51 < spectie> Mike_H, did you find someone to do the translation ?
2008-02-02 03:51 < Mike_H> spectie: drini
2008-02-02 03:51 < spectie> cool
2008-02-02 03:51 < Mike_H> triona: You know she never had training in voice or piano?
2008-02-02 03:51 < Mike_H> She did it all herself.
2008-02-02 03:51 < JessicaTaylor> Hello everybody
2008-02-02 03:51 < spectie> i didn't know drini spoke spanish

2008-02-02 03:51 < spectie> aha
2008-02-02 03:51 < spectie> i didn't know that either :)
2008-02-02 03:52 < jeremyb> can someone review edits to [[Ganja]]? i don't have twinkle working right atm and it seems there's some edits that aren't obvious vandalism mixed in
2008-02-02 03:53 < jeremyb> (and i'm falling asleep!)
2008-02-02 03:53 < triona> Mike_H: the fact she writes her own stuff is a plus too.
