2008-03-06 16:27 < OverlordQ> Martinp23: the entire section before the copyvio was added was a spoiler tag and the word Forthcoming
2008-03-06 16:27 < OverlordQ> so I just rm'ed that section
2008-03-06 16:28 < Martinp23> seems good
2008-03-06 16:28 < lekro> Martinp23: but it'd still show up in the old revisions when I just remove the copyvio part
2008-03-06 16:29 < OverlordQ> that doesnt really matter
2008-03-06 16:29 < OverlordQ> in the grand scheme of things
2008-03-06 16:29 < lekro> ok
2008-03-06 16:29 < Martinp23> We'd normally like to remove the past revision where the copyvio was introduced, but the issue of retaining attribution is important so it's often not possible.
2008-03-06 16:30 < Martinp23> In this case that text has been there for over a year
2008-03-06 16:35 * nsh purses lips
2008-03-06 16:36 * amidaniel steals nsh's purse
2008-03-06 16:37 < nsh> whoever decided to remove old versions of articles for copybollocks reasons anyway
2008-03-06 16:37 < nsh> idiot.
2008-03-06 16:37 < Sfan00> nsh: Erm
2008-03-06 16:37 < nsh> you, don't even start.
2008-03-06 16:37 < Sfan00> Removing copyvio is a good thing
2008-03-06 16:37 < nsh> no seriously
2008-03-06 16:37 < Sfan00> PROVIDED that's all that's removed
2008-03-06 16:38 < Sfan00> (which is hard to do)
2008-03-06 16:38 * nsh rolls his eyes
2008-03-06 16:38 < nsh> for the sake of maintaining courtesy
2008-03-06 16:38 * OverlordQ picks them up before they fall off the table
2008-03-06 16:38 < nsh> please do not entertain the thought that i will ever care for anything you have to say, Sfan00 :-)
2008-03-06 16:38 < Sfan00> I am entitled to my opinions

2008-03-06 16:44 * Ceiling_Cat mentally prepares for round 3 of revising his masters thesis
2008-03-06 16:44 < NotACow> ,oo

2008-03-06 16:46 < Sfan00> nsh: Lot of money in comptuer architectures
2008-03-06 16:46 < Comets> CreemeyDude :DD
2008-03-06 16:52 < Lucifer_Cat> SUB STI TUTE
2008-03-06 16:53 < Ceiling_Cat> nsh - I don't do overclocking
2008-03-06 16:53 < nsh> you're a clock
2008-03-06 16:53 < Ceiling_Cat> that's evil :)
2008-03-06 16:53 < nsh> uh
2008-03-06 16:53 < nsh> something related to high-performance computing though?
2008-03-06 16:53 < Ceiling_Cat> HPC, yes
2008-03-06 16:54 < Ceiling_Cat> my masters thesis is on a benchmark to compare very different types of computers
2008-03-06 16:54 < nsh> oh yeah
2008-03-06 16:54 < Ceiling_Cat> and my experiences porting it to one very special supercomputer
2008-03-06 16:54 * nsh pats the special supercomputer
2008-03-06 16:54 < nsh> yesyouare, yesyouare
2008-03-06 16:55 * Ceiling_Cat lulz
2008-03-06 16:55 < Ceiling_Cat> nobody loved it when it was younger
2008-03-06 16:55 < Ceiling_Cat> so it never got any siblings
2008-03-06 16:56 < Kamping_Kaiser> Ceiling_Cat, what is it?
2008-03-06 16:56 < nsh> but the Ceiling_Cat knows the worth of all its fiddling machines
2008-03-06 16:56 < Ceiling_Cat> Kamping_Kaiser - the benchmark is Mstack, the computer is the Cray MTA-2
2008-03-06 16:56 * NotACow snickers
2008-03-06 16:57 * NotACow is wondering how long beore the b'crats decide that they're not going to promote Riana

2008-03-06 16:58 < Sfan00> NotACow; Feline Control?
2008-03-06 16:59 * brown_cat_nap walks over Sfan00
2008-03-06 16:59 < Ceiling_Cat> how does one measure the speed of Ceiling_Cat?
2008-03-06 16:59 < Ceiling_Cat> FAPS/second?
2008-03-06 16:59 * brown_cat_nap had a good idea on how to get women free implants :D
2008-03-06 17:00 < Sfan00> :O
2008-03-06 17:00 < Sfan00> Why do women need implants?
2008-03-06 17:00 * NotACow wants to see more men with implants
2008-03-06 17:00 < brown_cat_nap> to make them hot
2008-03-06 17:00 < Sfan00> Is natural beuaty not enough?
2008-03-06 17:00 < brown_cat_nap> no
2008-03-06 17:00 < brown_cat_nap> it isn't
2008-03-06 17:00 < NotACow> men with fake breasts are hot.
2008-03-06 17:00 < brown_cat_nap> hence the invention of photoshop
2008-03-06 17:00 < Sfan00> NotACow: :O
2008-03-06 17:00 < brown_cat_nap> 1) Get them a job as microsoft posing as a man
2008-03-06 17:01 < brown_cat_nap> 2) Get them to apply for the free transsexual surgery microsoft pays for
2008-03-06 17:01 < brown_cat_nap> 3) get the free implants
2008-03-06 17:01 < Sfan00> It's a real shame that women have to get implants to confrom to a society that vlaues 'artifcial' beauty over natural
2008-03-06 17:01 < nsh> there's a job with perks
2008-03-06 17:01 < Sfan00> nsh: LOL
2008-03-06 17:02 < brown_cat_nap> Sfan00: silicon implants are natural
2008-03-06 17:02 < brown_cat_nap> and there is no shame
2008-03-06 17:02 < Sfan00> MS really does pay people to take the p**s :(
2008-03-06 17:02 < nsh> "c.1380, 'to make oneself trim or smart,' perhaps from O.N.Fr. perquer 'to perch' (Fr. percher; see perch (1)), on notion of a bird preening its plumage."
2008-03-06 17:02 < kenlyric> pots?
2008-03-06 17:02 < brown_cat_nap> proof gates likes women
2008-03-06 17:02 < brown_cat_nap> I think Sfan00 means dicks :)
2008-03-06 17:02 < Sfan00> and get thier hands on people nuts...
2008-03-06 17:02 < Sfan00> :(

2008-03-06 17:02 < Sfan00> :O
2008-03-06 17:03 < kenlyric> have to?
2008-03-06 17:03 < kenlyric> I'm pretty sure there are no mandatory breast surgeries
2008-03-06 17:03 < brown_cat_nap> Sfan00: or they can bme olympics their penis
2008-03-06 17:03 < Gracenotes> brown_cat_nap: it's not silicon, though. It's silicone.
2008-03-06 17:04 * brown_cat_nap gives Gracenotes implants
2008-03-06 17:04 < brown_cat_nap> there! now you're hot!
2008-03-06 17:04 < Gracenotes> and sure, silicon is natural on other planets... not quite here...
2008-03-06 17:04 < Sfan00> Silicon breats? Is MS creating a race of cybernetic She males with which to spread thier evil plans? Maybe we should be told about Sliverlights's connection to Cybus !!! ;)
2008-03-06 17:04 < Gracenotes> not to the same extent carbon is, anyway
2008-03-06 17:04 < White_Cat> Gracenotes well
2008-03-06 17:04 < White_Cat> silicon based lifeforms were featured in star trek
2008-03-06 17:05 * Gracenotes eschews brown_cat_nap's offer for cosmetic surgery
2008-03-06 17:05 < Sfan00> (me notes that you have to be a Doctor Who fan to understand that last comment)
2008-03-06 17:05 < brown_cat_nap> Gracenotes: I plan on not becoming old + scary
2008-03-06 17:05 < Gracenotes> White_Cat: well, that's Star Trek, of which I don't believe I've ever watched an episode
2008-03-06 17:05 < Sfan00> :O
2008-03-06 17:05 < Sfan00> :O
2008-03-06 17:05 < White_Cat> The original series
2008-03-06 17:05 < Gracenotes> brown_cat_nap: but you wouldn't mind becoming one of the two?
2008-03-06 17:05 < White_Cat> silocon spheres and a moster type one phasers have no effect on
2008-03-06 17:05 < Sfan00> Who can you claim to be a Wikipedian and have not watched trek
2008-03-06 17:05 < brown_cat_nap> Gracenotes: yes, I would
2008-03-06 17:06 < Gracenotes> scary?
2008-03-06 17:06 < White_Cat> Sfan00 we crucify such people
2008-03-06 17:06 < brown_cat_nap> I was thinking of one jewish woman on E! guess wh?
2008-03-06 17:06 < brown_cat_nap> who has had loads of surgery
2008-03-06 17:06 < White_Cat> Gracenotes remind me to crucify you when we meet
2008-03-06 17:06 < Sfan00> White_CAT: Huh?
2008-03-06 17:06 < White_Cat> if we meet
2008-03-06 17:06 < Gracenotes> cremepuff222: get out! before they crucify you! :O
2008-03-06 17:06 < Sfan00> White_Cat: Erm....
2008-03-06 17:06 < White_Cat> Gracenotes a blasphimer like you and I shall never meet hopefully
2008-03-06 17:06 * brown_cat_nap hooks Sfan00 up with a disapbled blind fat retarded woman with no eyes - who said looks were important
2008-03-06 17:06 < cremepuff222> No!!!!
2008-03-06 17:07 < Sfan00> brown_cat_nap: erm, what about the personality?
2008-03-06 17:07 * Gracenotes huggles cremepuff222
2008-03-06 17:07 < brown_cat_nap> Sfan00: women don't have personalities
2008-03-06 17:07 < brown_cat_nap> or feelings
2008-03-06 17:07 < Sfan00> :O
2008-03-06 17:07 < brown_cat_nap> they were created to keep men happy
2008-03-06 17:07 < Sfan00> What a sexsist mysognistic anti-feminist comment :O
2008-03-06 17:08 < Sfan00> Besides that's the wrong way round
2008-03-06 17:08 < brown_cat_nap> when I think about it
2008-03-06 17:08 < Sfan00> men were created to make women happy, and get angry and moody because they can't
2008-03-06 17:08 < brown_cat_nap> women are like sex dolls
2008-03-06 17:08 < Sfan00> NO
2008-03-06 17:08 < brown_cat_nap> Sfan00: pms = mad cow disease?
2008-03-06 17:08 < Sfan00> PMS is treatable
2008-03-06 17:09 * brown_cat_nap cuts out Sfan00's ovaries
2008-03-06 17:09 < Ceiling_Cat> no no, mad cow disease in humans is croesfetler-something or other
2008-03-06 17:09 < Sfan00> I don't have ovaries brown_cat
2008-03-06 17:09 < Lubaf> Proposed Ben & Jerry's flavor: "Yes, Pecan".
2008-03-06 17:09 < Ceiling_Cat> Creutzfeldt-Jakob
2008-03-06 17:09 < brown_cat_nap> Sfan00: now you don't
2008-03-06 17:09 < Sfan00> LOL
2008-03-06 17:09 < Ceiling_Cat> [[Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease]]
2008-03-06 17:09 < Gracenotes> Ceiling_Cat: evil prions
2008-03-06 17:09 * Sfan00 sets the troll repller to stun
2008-03-06 17:10 < Gracenotes> instead of good and bad cholesterol, you have hero and villain prions
2008-03-06 17:10 * Ceiling_Cat steals Gracenotes's prions
2008-03-06 17:10 < Ceiling_Cat> hrm, while I'm at it
2008-03-06 17:10 * Ceiling_Cat takes his innocence too
2008-03-06 17:10 < NotACow> Gracenotes: there's an awful lot of silicon on the earth
2008-03-06 17:10 < Sfan00> Gracenotes: Do the bad prions end up in prion prison..?
2008-03-06 17:10 < NotACow> Gracenotes: in it, too
2008-03-06 17:10 < Sfan00> ;)
2008-03-06 17:10 < Gracenotes> NotACow: it's not the central life of human life is my point, though
2008-03-06 17:10 < Gracenotes> er, element
2008-03-06 17:10 < brown_cat_nap> O_o
2008-03-06 17:10 < Ceiling_Cat> Sfan00 - prions are bad by definition ;)
2008-03-06 17:10 < brown_cat_nap> ARGHHHH!!!!!!!!
2008-03-06 17:10 < brown_cat_nap> oh noes!!!!!
2008-03-06 17:11 < brown_cat_nap> ARGHHHHHHHHHHHH
2008-03-06 17:11 < Sfan00> ceilingCat; So how do you have Hero Prions?
2008-03-06 17:11 < brown_cat_nap> LIGHTNING :'(
2008-03-06 17:11 * Ceiling_Cat tazes brown_cat_nap
2008-03-06 17:11 < NotACow> Gracenotes: are you sure? :)
2008-03-06 17:11 < Gracenotes> >.>
2008-03-06 17:11 < brown_cat_nap> don't taze me bro
2008-03-06 17:11 < Ceiling_Cat> (don't taze me, brow!)
2008-03-06 17:11 < Ceiling_Cat> lulz
2008-03-06 17:11 * Rinn throws a paper airplane at brown_cat_nap
2008-03-06 17:11 < NotACow> Gracenotes: you've seen the matrix, right? :)
2008-03-06 17:11 < Sfan00> Silcon life would also have a problem in that the waste product of the chemicla process is solid
2008-03-06 17:11 < brown_cat_nap> seriously, that lighning was soo loud
2008-03-06 17:11 < Gracenotes> yes...
2008-03-06 17:11 < Lubaf> Meme meme meme meme meme
2008-03-06 17:11 * brown_cat_nap is scared
2008-03-06 17:11 < Lubaf> Meme meme meme.
2008-03-06 17:11 * brown_cat_nap throws a paper concorde at Rinn
2008-03-06 17:11 < Lubaf> Meme meme meme meme meme, meme meme.
2008-03-06 17:11 < Gracenotes> NotACow: how does silicon play into that? I don't recall
2008-03-06 17:12 < Lubaf> Meme meme meme meme. Meme meme meme; meme meme meme meme.
2008-03-06 17:12 < Lubaf> Meme.
2008-03-06 17:12 < White_Cat> Gracenotes silicon is right below carbon in the peridic table
2008-03-06 17:12 * Astral_Enigma huggles Lubaf
2008-03-06 17:12 < Gracenotes> White_Cat: it is, so it has similar properties
2008-03-06 17:12 * Lubaf stabbles Astral_Enigma.
2008-03-06 17:12 < Astral_Enigma> :D
2008-03-06 17:12 < Astral_Enigma> <3
2008-03-06 17:12 < White_Cat> so most bonds formed with carbon can be formed with silicon
2008-03-06 17:12 < Sfan00> Silcion life is more likley to be electrical...
2008-03-06 17:12 < Gracenotes> but it just so happens that it's not too widely used organically, compared to carbon
2008-03-06 17:13 < White_Cat> also silicon can become liquid
2008-03-06 17:13 * brown_cat_nap gives Sfan00 implants
2008-03-06 17:13 * Lubaf stabs Astral_Enigma in the <3 and :D
2008-03-06 17:13 * Sfan00 looks at the implants
2008-03-06 17:13 < White_Cat> can be liquid gas and solid in near tempratures
2008-03-06 17:13 < White_Cat> planet would be far too hot for us
2008-03-06 17:13 < White_Cat> but it is a posibility
2008-03-06 17:13 < Sfan00> White_Cat: Hmm
2008-03-06 17:13 < Sfan00> Can you have silicon sandworms ala Dune?
2008-03-06 17:13 < Lubaf> Carbon based life is just more likely, though.
2008-03-06 17:14 < White_Cat> those are fictional
2008-03-06 17:14 < White_Cat> carbon is more easily found in the universe
2008-03-06 17:14 < Lubaf> Carbon's lower on the fusion chain than silicon.
2008-03-06 17:14 < Sfan00> How about silicon lifeforms in a Volcano?
2008-03-06 17:14 < White_Cat> Lubaf well
2008-03-06 17:14 < White_Cat> its not that low
2008-03-06 17:14 < White_Cat> any elemt less than iron is abundant
2008-03-06 17:14 < gwern> y'know, I'm currently not thrilled to death with Spice & Wolf qua anime, but for some reason I'm addicted to its ending theme
2008-03-06 17:15 < Lubaf> White_Cat: Yes, but the lower, the more common.
2008-03-06 17:15 * White_Cat shakes Lubaf's chai
2008-03-06 17:15 < White_Cat> you know
2008-03-06 17:15 < White_Cat> today I almost feel welcome here :)
2008-03-06 17:15 < Lubaf> White_Cat: Go away.
2008-03-06 17:15 < Lubaf> </sarcasm>
2008-03-06 17:16 < Lubaf> Anyway.
2008-03-06 17:16 < Lubaf> How's Lithium?
2008-03-06 17:16 < White_Cat> the time of ceiing cats departure was epical
2008-03-06 17:16 < Comets> O_O
2008-03-06 17:16 < Demi> epical?
2008-03-06 17:17 < Demi> "epical" sounds like some supplement for your skin or something
2008-03-06 17:17 < Gracenotes> either that, or it was an unexplainable anomaly in the theory of Ceiling Cat watching you
2008-03-06 17:18 < White_Cat> http://dictionary.reference.com/browse/epical
2008-03-06 17:18 < Lubaf> White_Cat: How was it in any way epic?
2008-03-06 17:19 < White_Cat> Lubaf just wait an see
2008-03-06 17:19 < White_Cat> legends and poems will be dedicated to his timing
2008-03-06 17:25 < White_Cat> Lubaf
2008-03-06 17:25 < White_Cat> looobaf
2008-03-06 17:25 < White_Cat> talk to me
2008-03-06 17:26 < Lubaf> White_Cat: Only if I have something to say.
2008-03-06 17:26 < Lubaf> I never speak unless I have something to say, even if it is completely random.
2008-03-06 17:26 < White_Cat> Lubaf what if I toture you to say something?
2008-03-06 17:27 * White_Cat sends ralf nader to Lubaf

2008-03-06 17:51 < Daniel_Bush> http://www.weebls-stuff.com/toons/Kitty+Cats/ How about this one
2008-03-06 17:51 < geniice> about 1? 2? years ago people were haveing fun removeing garfield's thought bubbles
2008-03-06 17:51 < Daniel_Bush> Yeah, this is really just more of that
2008-03-06 17:51 < Daniel_Bush> What we now need are side-by-side comparisons with Garfield without thought bubbles against him not being there at all
2008-03-06 17:59 < RandIter> pardon me if i'm repeating this but i read on blogs that the word is that jimbo took five grant for wp from jeff v. merkey and whitewashed his article and history
2008-03-06 18:01 < Daniel_Bush> Yeah, and his winged monkey minions are guarding his article
2008-03-06 18:01 < geniice> RandIter can you find any edits from jimbo on that article?
2008-03-06 18:01 < Demi> well, that comes from jeff merkey
2008-03-06 18:01 < nokmar> oversight
2008-03-06 18:03 < geniice> nokmar tends to leave traces
2008-03-06 18:05 < RandIter> geniice: yes, there are a few edits by him for that article. none of them are recent. the point is that if the claim of whitewashing and deleting history is true, that's bad
2008-03-06 18:05 < geniice> seems doubtful link to blog?
2008-03-06 18:06 < RandIter> http://valleywag.com/364782/wikipedia-scam-made-easy-for-reporters
2008-03-06 18:06 < RandIter> this goes back to 2006
2008-03-06 18:07 < RandIter> also http://antisocialmedia.net/?p=125
2008-03-06 18:08 < geniice> antisocialmedia.net is not a valid source of anything
2008-03-06 18:10 < geniice> jimbo did vapourise the JVM article back in 2006 but he had an anoying habit of doing things like that from time to time
2008-03-06 18:11 < The359> Shaking things up helps
2008-03-06 18:11 < The359> A little anarchy now and then is good
2008-03-06 18:12 < RandIter> geniice: doing that following a donation from JVM is a whole other thing
2008-03-06 18:12 < geniice> do you have evidence of such a donation?
2008-03-06 18:13 < NotASpy> JVM is rather, umm, banned at the moment.
2008-03-06 18:13 < geniice> what has he done this time?
2008-03-06 18:14 < RandIter> geniice: of course i don't, i'm assuming wp keeps records of its donations and donors, and so that shouldn't be too hard to check
2008-03-06 18:14 < NotASpy> edit warring and offering vast sums of money to get his own way with the articles he liked to edit.
2008-03-06 18:14 < geniice> RandIter the date would fit with about the time we shifted the 9/11 memorial wiki over to his servers
2008-03-06 18:15 < geniice> NotASpy that's enough to get you banned these days? oh dear
2008-03-06 18:15 < White_Cat> Huckabeedia
2008-03-06 18:15 < scorchsaber> What's wrong with the JVM?
2008-03-06 18:15 < RandIter> the big poing here is not about JVM. it's about the claimed ability and danger of being able to whitewash wp articles with money
2008-03-06 18:16 < scorchsaber> and it is here. :x
2008-03-06 18:16 < scorchsaber> http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Java_Virtual_Machine
2008-03-06 18:16 < geniice> RandIter there are a couple of ways to do it with low profile article not so much with high profile ones
2008-03-06 18:17 < NotASpy> RandIter: it's not. There's thousands of biographies that all need the same treatment, we only find some of them because they donate to the Foundation (or they die, are arrested, or indeed, find the article themselves and e-mail in)
2008-03-06 18:17 < bumm13> scorchsaber: Jeff V. Merkey :P
2008-03-06 18:17 < scorchsaber> bumm13: ah, alright.
2008-03-06 18:17 < scorchsaber> bumm13: To be honest I knew it wasn't the JVM, but you people are being so cryptic. :(
2008-03-06 18:18 < bumm13> aww
2008-03-06 18:19 < RandIter> can someone just crosscheck jvm's donation history with the dates jimbo made the edits to his article
2008-03-06 18:21 < RandIter> scorchsaber: you obviously were in the room before even i joined
2008-03-06 18:22 < scorchsaber> RandIter: JVM wasn't mentioned once by name.
2008-03-06 18:22 < scorchsaber> RandIter: Until after I asked, that is. :P
2008-03-06 18:24 < Demi> RandIter - let's say for the sake of argument merkey donated money and subsequently jimbo made otherwise valid edits to his article. would that bother you?
2008-03-06 18:24 < RandIter> no, but deleting his edit history would
2008-03-06 18:25 < RandIter> i mean jvm's edit history, or the article's edit history, etc.
2008-03-06 18:25 < Demi> since there's not really any prior reason to believe anything merkey might have to say, i don't think that would bother me
2008-03-06 18:27 < geniice> RandIter deleting someone's edit history would be kinda tricky
2008-03-06 18:31 * TheWeasel is back
2008-03-06 18:32 < bumm13> hiya Weasel
2008-03-06 18:33 < TheWeasel> hey

2008-03-06 18:43 < The359> fucking hell
2008-03-06 18:43 < The359> our dog humping her doggy bed
2008-03-06 18:43 < The359> which is not something surprising
2008-03-06 18:43 < scorchsaber> I've seen worse
2008-03-06 18:43 < The359> Except she's female
2008-03-06 18:43 < scorchsaber> yes
2008-03-06 18:43 < scorchsaber> I have a female dog that was humping its grandmother...
2008-03-06 18:44 < RandIter> i know a guy who would be interested in your dogs
2008-03-06 18:44 < RandIter> goes to school with me
2008-03-06 18:44 < scorchsaber> ... :(
2008-03-06 18:46 < Lucifer_Cat> scorchsaber: march - december incest lesbian bestiality.... interesting.
2008-03-06 18:46 < scorchsaber> Lucifer_Cat: HAH
2008-03-06 18:46 < Lucifer_Cat> i see rule 34
2008-03-06 18:46 < scorchsaber> Lucifer_Cat: It's not been photographed or recorded, though
2008-03-06 18:47 < scorchsaber> And nore will it be. >:(
2008-03-06 18:47 < scorchsaber> nor*'
2008-03-06 18:47 < Lucifer_Cat> it DID happen though
2008-03-06 18:47 < scorchsaber> yes
2008-03-06 18:47 < scorchsaber> several times. :(
2008-03-06 18:47 < Lucifer_Cat> and thank god theres no recorded proof of it
2008-03-06 18:47 < Lucifer_Cat> its one of those "near impossible to unsee" things
2008-03-06 18:48 < scorchsaber> Lucifer_Cat: Nah, it can be unseen pretty easily tbh
2008-03-06 18:48 < scorchsaber> Lucifer_Cat: in fact, I haven't seen anything yet that I can't forget about.
2008-03-06 18:48 < Lucifer_Cat> i wouldnt wanna know for sure. ignorance = bliss
2008-03-06 18:48 < The359> This week there's been a juicy rumor that Circuit City is taking back HD DVD players in exchange for Blu-ray players. Now our sister site Gizmodo has confirmed it from a variety of sources.
2008-03-06 18:48 < The359> If you purchased an HD DVD player—even if opened—in the last 90 days at Circuit City, you can turn in your HD DVD player for original credit on a Blu-ray player purchase.
2008-03-06 18:48 < Lucifer_Cat> scorchsaber: keyword "near impossible" and it helps to have memory of an amoeba
2008-03-06 18:48 < The359> nice
2008-03-06 18:49 < scorchsaber> Lucifer_Cat: :(!
2008-03-06 18:49 < Lucifer_Cat> well maybe something more lasting. but mine is no better than an amoeba
2008-03-06 18:51 < Miranda> o.O bishzilla :-P
2008-03-06 18:58 < The359> hmmm
2008-03-06 18:58 < The359> the White House today honored the only remaining American veteran of World War I
2008-03-06 18:58 < The359> Age 107

2008-03-06 18:59 < Miranda> o.O I iz scared
2008-03-06 19:00 < bumm13> bishonen!
2008-03-06 19:00 < Mike42> hm. Australia's last WWI veteran died in 2003 I think :/
2008-03-06 19:01 < bumm13> in the U.S., WWI is largely forgotten
2008-03-06 19:01 * bishzilla pocket Miranda protectively
2008-03-06 19:01 < bishzilla> why little Miranda scared?
2008-03-06 19:01 < Miranda> o.O bishzilla may eat me
2008-03-06 19:02 < Mike42> bumm13: It's remembered pretty well here. We have ANZAC day
2008-03-06 19:02 * privatemusings waves from a distance at bishzilla
2008-03-06 19:03 < Mike42> which is on the day the Australians landed in Turkey in WWI
2008-03-06 19:03 < privatemusings> suprised to see bishzilla in here.....
2008-03-06 19:03 < privatemusings> thought she'd headed off to tokyo for a while.....
2008-03-06 19:03 < privatemusings> (how long does that city take to destroy?)
2008-03-06 19:03 < bumm13> Mike42: weren't many Aussies killed at that landing?
2008-03-06 19:03 < bishzilla> hi private
2008-03-06 19:04 < Mike42> bumm13: Yes, it didn't exactly work out as planned
2008-03-06 19:04 < bumm13> but that's a *good* thing? :s
2008-03-06 19:04 < bumm13> (for celebration)
2008-03-06 19:04 < Mike42> well it's something to remember
2008-03-06 19:05 < Mike42> "Lest we forget" etc
2008-03-06 19:05 < bumm13> in the U.S., Pearl Harbor Day isn't a big "holiday"
2008-03-06 19:05 < privatemusings> how's everything, bish?
2008-03-06 19:05 < bumm13> a reflection of what happened then, at most
2008-03-06 19:06 < Mike42> well we have a public holiday, lots of marches and ceremonies and things like that
2008-03-06 19:07 < Daniel_Bush> If you flashed a fake gang sign by doing the Vulcan peace sign with both hands while crossing your arms, how many people would believe you're actually flashing a gang sign?
2008-03-06 19:07 < Daniel_Bush> Wait, nevermind
2008-03-06 19:07 < Daniel_Bush> I'm just typing whatever I think
2008-03-06 19:08 < Mike42> bumm13: [[Battle of Gallipoli]] (scroll down to "Popular influence")
2008-03-06 19:11 < bumm13> hiya Kieff
2008-03-06 19:12 < Kieff> bumm13: hello
2008-03-06 19:12 < TheWeasel> Back.
2008-03-06 19:12 < TheWeasel> The battle of Gallipoli had little influence on me, except that I think I once changed trains at a metro station of that name
2008-03-06 19:12 < TheWeasel> or maybe just descended
2008-03-06 19:13 < bishzilla> private: lousy, and you?
2008-03-06 19:14 < privatemusings> that won't do!
2008-03-06 19:14 < TheWeasel> ARE YOU PUMPED?
2008-03-06 19:14 < bishzilla> it'll have to
2008-03-06 19:14 < privatemusings> nope. I refuse to accept it - and will immediately start to bring my considerable baking skills to improve matters.....
2008-03-06 19:14 < TheWeasel> aw
2008-03-06 19:14 < TheWeasel> brb
2008-03-06 19:15 < privatemusings> mind you the last person to try a scone of mine had quite a large dental bill.....
2008-03-06 19:15 < bishzilla> too late, private. the RFAR is closed.
2008-03-06 19:15 < bishzilla> good night.
2008-03-06 19:15 < privatemusings> take care, bish.....
2008-03-06 19:15 < privatemusings> to blatantly steal anothers' comments - don't let jimbo and the arbonaughts get you down....
2008-03-06 19:16 * TheWeasel requests sanity
2008-03-06 19:16 < bishzilla> no comment, and same to you.
2008-03-06 19:17 < enok|walker> hay i got blocked
2008-03-06 19:18 < Ryanposs> what for?
2008-03-06 19:18 < enok|walker> ?
2008-03-06 19:18 < Ryanposs> never mind......
2008-03-06 19:19 * Ryanposs learns to read the whole discussion
2008-03-06 19:19 < enok|walker> what??
2008-03-06 19:19 < Ryanposs> enok|walker> hay i got blocked
2008-03-06 19:20 < enok|walker> yeah but what did that last comment mean
2008-03-06 19:20 < Ryanposs> Did you get blocked?
2008-03-06 19:20 < Miranda> enok|walker: shared AOL proxy
2008-03-06 19:20 < enok|walker> yes
2008-03-06 19:21 < Ryanposs> enok|walker: What for?
2008-03-06 19:22 < MrZ-man> AOL proxies should all use X-Forwarded-For headers
2008-03-06 19:23 < Demi> as MrZ-man declares, so shall AOL obey!
2008-03-06 19:24 < MrZ-man> http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/XFF_project
2008-03-06 19:24 < MrZ-man> America Online (not sending XFF headers consistently)
2008-03-06 19:24 < MrZ-man> but they should
2008-03-06 19:24 < MrZ-man> if you get blocked, go yell at AOL
2008-03-06 19:26 * Mike_H NP: Frankie Valli - Grease is the Word (1978)
2008-03-06 19:27 < Demi> no one wanted to follow my suggestion to get AOL and other ISPs to behave politely
2008-03-06 19:34 < TheWeasel> HOW MANY SEASONS DID YOU GUESS? DON'T ANSWER!
2008-03-06 19:34 < TheWeasel> FIVE?, SIX? EVEN MORE?
2008-03-06 19:34 < Demi> are we talking about cubic time?
2008-03-06 19:34 < TheWeasel> no, it's just four seasons, it's an incredible value but it's true!
2008-03-06 19:35 < Demi> are you forgetting Wimmer?
2008-03-06 19:36 * TheWeasel was trying for a comment on Frankie Valli and the Four Seasons
2008-03-06 19:38 * TheWeasel was forgetting Sprummer
2008-03-06 19:40 < gwern> 'We had a memorial services for Isaac a few years back, and at one point I said, "Isaac is up in Heaven now." It was the funniest thing I could have said to a group of Humanists. I rolled them in the aisles. It was several minutes before order could be restored. And if I should ever die, God forbid, I hope you will say, "Kurt is up in Heaven now." That’s my favorite joke.'
2008-03-06 19:43 * TheWeasel made a fool out of self looking for a pun for five to ten minutes
2008-03-06 19:45 < gwern> ....maybe I should've glossed Isaac as 'Isaac Asimov' and Kurt as 'Kurt Vonnegut'
2008-03-06 19:47 < TheWeasel> Well, even better about sci-fi authors
2008-03-06 19:47 < TheWeasel> since heaven = sky
2008-03-06 19:47 * TheWeasel decides to grow Asimov Memorial Sideburns
2008-03-06 19:51 < gwern> 'The mayor of Sarpourenx, a small village in the southwest of France has forbidden locals from dying there. The ordinance is designed to help fight the overcrowding problem in the local cemetery. Mayor Gerard Lalanne told the 260 residents of the village that, "all persons not having a plot in the cemetery and wishing to be buried in Sarpourenx are forbidden from dying in the parish." He added, "Offenders will be severely punished." I'm pretty sure ...
2008-03-06 19:52 < gwern> ... this is how a couple Twilight Zones and a Lovecraft story start.' <-- brilliant. /me needs those story NAO
2008-03-06 19:52 < TheWeasel> heh, people who do not prevent them dying there will be...
2008-03-06 19:53 < TheWeasel> (although it was perfectly feasible to do so)
2008-03-06 19:53 < TheWeasel> That's the shit thing about law being made in Paris.
2008-03-06 19:53 < TheWeasel> (i.e. yay for federalism)
2008-03-06 19:55 < TheWeasel> because that way local corpses cannot be transferred to adjacent parishes if there's no space
2008-03-06 19:56 < TheWeasel> jurisdiction of regions or départements over that would adress that swiftly
2008-03-06 20:09 * Mike_H NP: Dead or Alive - You Spin Me Around (Like a Record) (1985)
2008-03-06 20:11 * TheWeasel NP: Spencer Davis Group - Keep On Running (1965)
2008-03-06 20:11 * FastLizard4 <empty set>
2008-03-06 20:14 * Mike_H NP: Madonna - La Isla Bonita (1987)
2008-03-06 20:15 < TheWeasel> I actually like that song.
2008-03-06 20:15 < TheWeasel> that amounts to two songs.
2008-03-06 20:15 < TheWeasel> :-d
2008-03-06 20:15 < TheWeasel> (I previously approved "Black Velvet")
2008-03-06 20:15 < Mike_H> TheWeasel: La Isla Bonita was by far not her most popular hit in the US
2008-03-06 20:15 < Mike_H> but it's definitely one of her most enduring hits
2008-03-06 20:16 < TheWeasel> not here either
2008-03-06 20:16 < TheWeasel> yea
2008-03-06 20:16 < Mike_H> so it's become legendary for its staying power
2008-03-06 20:16 < TheWeasel> it's a nice one
2008-03-06 20:16 < Mike_H> as far as enduring and most popular in terms of sales
2008-03-06 20:16 < Mike_H> Like a Virgin, Material Girl, and Vogue
2008-03-06 20:16 < Mike_H> are the ones that rank highest
2008-03-06 20:17 < TheWeasel> b) is ok, the other two are clearly worse
2008-03-06 20:17 < Mike_H> TheWeasel: La Isla Bonita was #1 in over a dozen countries
2008-03-06 20:17 < Mike_H> including Germany
2008-03-06 20:17 < Mike_H> it went to #4 here.
2008-03-06 20:18 < TheWeasel> oh...
2008-03-06 20:18 < TheWeasel> well yea
2008-03-06 20:18 < TheWeasel> but 1987 wasn't exactly a smashing year for musical efforts
2008-03-06 20:18 < Mike_H> TheWeasel: The '80s was still pretty memorable
2008-03-06 20:18 < Mike_H> it wasn't until 1985 that a song rose to the top of four music charts here simultaneously
2008-03-06 20:19 * Mike_H NP: Stevie Wonder - Part-Time Lover (1985)
2008-03-06 20:19 < Mike_H> that's the song that did it
2008-03-06 20:19 < Mike_H> "Part-Time Lover" is a 1985 single by Stevie Wonder, from his album In Square Circle. The song reached number one on the Billboard pop, R&B, dance and adult contemporary charts. The song's simultaneous chart success made him the first artist to score a number-one hit on four different Billboard charts.
2008-03-06 20:19 < TheWeasel> the no. 1 hits in Germany were
2008-03-06 20:20 < TheWeasel> Walk Like An Egyptian
2008-03-06 20:20 < Mike_H> That was our #1 hit for the entire year
2008-03-06 20:20 < Mike_H> back in 1987.
2008-03-06 20:20 < TheWeasel> Showing Out by a duo named Mel & Kim

2008-03-06 20:21 < TheWeasel> then Never Gonna Give You Up
2008-03-06 20:22 < Mike_H> Ew
2008-03-06 20:22 < scorchsaber> TheWeasel: a lot of songs used to start with "then", huh?
2008-03-06 20:22 < Mike_H> that was #1 here too
2008-03-06 20:22 < TheWeasel> then You Win Again
2008-03-06 20:22 < TheWeasel> and another ghastly Astley
2008-03-06 20:22 < Mike_H> TheWeasel: Did you have year-ending charts?
2008-03-06 20:22 < Mike_H> That showed the #1 song for the year?
2008-03-06 20:22 < TheWeasel> called Whenever You Need Somebody
2008-03-06 20:22 < TheWeasel> yea
2008-03-06 20:22 < TheWeasel> Voyage Voyage wins
2008-03-06 20:22 < TheWeasel> right before Madonna
2008-03-06 20:23 < TheWeasel> (mind you, both are good songs)
2008-03-06 20:23 < TheWeasel> then Whitney (also enduring, as far as I can judge)
2008-03-06 20:24 < Mike_H> TheWeasel: These were our #1 songs for the year in the '80s
2008-03-06 20:24 < TheWeasel> the winner in 1988 was Girl You Know It's True, so I guess props to 1987.
2008-03-06 20:24 < Mike_H> first starting from 1980-1984
2008-03-06 20:24 < Mike_H> Blondie "Call Me", Kim Carnes "Bette Davis Eyes", Olivia Newton-John "Physical", The Police "Every Breath You Take", Prince "When Doves Cry"

2008-03-06 20:25 < TheWeasel> the ones you might know at all
2008-03-06 20:25 < TheWeasel> ...
2008-03-06 20:25 < TheWeasel> in 1982, OMD and Maid In Orleans
2008-03-06 20:26 < TheWeasel> in 1983, Irene Cara and What A Feeling
2008-03-06 20:26 < Mike_H> Flashdance :DD
2008-03-06 20:26 < TheWeasel> in 1984 Alphaville - Big in Japan (excellent song)
2008-03-06 20:27 < TheWeasel> then 87 and 88 who I already mentioned
2008-03-06 20:27 < Mike_H> TheWeasel: Have you heard "That's What Friends Are For"?
2008-03-06 20:27 < TheWeasel> the rest are crappy German or Austrian projects
2008-03-06 20:27 < TheWeasel> probably
2008-03-06 20:27 < Mike_H> It narrowly edged out Berlin's "Take My Breath Away" for the top spot in '86
2008-03-06 20:27 < TheWeasel> oh yea, Lambada in 1989
2008-03-06 20:28 < TheWeasel> No forty-something party in the following five years without that bloody song
2008-03-06 20:28 < TheWeasel> hah
2008-03-06 20:28 < Mike_H> TheWeasel: I know you're against YouTube clips
2008-03-06 20:28 < Mike_H> but if you felt like it
2008-03-06 20:28 < Mike_H> http://youtube.com/watch?v=xGbnua2kSa8
2008-03-06 20:28 < Mike_H> That's What Friends Are For
2008-03-06 20:29 < TheWeasel> *nod
2008-03-06 20:29 < TheWeasel> the worst thing about the mid-to-late 80s was the terrible affinity to duets
2008-03-06 20:29 < TheWeasel> and choir efforts
2008-03-06 20:30 < Mike_H> TheWeasel: This was a gangbang of a duet
2008-03-06 20:30 < Mike_H> Dionne Warwick
2008-03-06 20:30 < Mike_H> Gladys Knight
2008-03-06 20:30 < Mike_H> Elton John
2008-03-06 20:30 < Mike_H> Stevie Wonder
2008-03-06 20:30 < TheWeasel> woohoo
2008-03-06 20:30 < TheWeasel> I used to admire USA for Africa
2008-03-06 20:30 < TheWeasel> haha
2008-03-06 20:30 < Tony_Sidaway> This is one question I cannot answer: why is the internet absolutely bursting with free porn?
2008-03-06 20:31 * TheWeasel wonders how many people pay for porn
2008-03-06 20:31 < Tony_Sidaway> And the second question is: given that it's bursting with free porn, how do the paid porn websites attract customers?
2008-03-06 20:31 < TheWeasel> Precisely.
2008-03-06 20:31 < TheWeasel> anyway... those terrible two-sided duets
2008-03-06 20:31 < TheWeasel> between two (usually black, sometimes mixed) singers
2008-03-06 20:32 < Tony_Sidaway> Apart from purely amateur stuff involving exhibitionists, models and actors produce porn for money. So where does the money come from?
2008-03-06 20:32 < Demi> Tony_Sidaway - a) i think in fact for-pay will decrease as youtube porn analogs get more popular; b) generally, people cannot have enough porn; c) in specialist porn there can be a big difference between what you get for free and what you need to pay for.
2008-03-06 20:34 < Tony_Sidaway> Ah yeah, the burgers are free but the ketchup is extra.
2008-03-06 20:34 < Tony_Sidaway> OH dear that sounds like some hideous analogy
2008-03-06 20:35 < TheWeasel> the Sprite is free but you have to catch in in your hands?
2008-03-06 20:35 < Tony_Sidaway> Germaine Greer once described heterosexual sex as "getting the jam into the donut"
2008-03-06 20:35 < Demi> at one point i realized i would never be getting physical porn of any kind again (magazines or videos)
2008-03-06 20:35 < Demi> we're close to a similar realization regarding paying for it
2008-03-06 20:36 < Demi> if i haven't already
2008-03-06 20:36 < sargun_screen> RAWR
2008-03-06 20:36 < TheWeasel> Germaine Greer is what you'd call a pervert if she was male, which she isn't, bless her soul.
2008-03-06 20:36 < sargun_screen> err, wrong channel..
2008-03-06 20:37 < Demi> interesting reaction, though
2008-03-06 20:39 < Tony_Sidaway> I discovered this porn sorting community the other day (well, not porn really, glamor, "idols") They show you a few pictures and then they say "oops, sorry your limit is up for the day. Please register for more." So you register and it turns into something a bit like WIkipedia.
2008-03-06 20:40 < Lucifer_Cat> Tony_Sidaway: go on...
2008-03-06 20:40 < Tony_Sidaway> They show you pictures and as long as you rate them or classify them they show you more. Of course it's addictive.
2008-03-06 20:40 < Demi> i had a friend back in '98 or '99 who wanted to do a startup getting people to sort porn pictures that way
2008-03-06 20:40 < Demi> later on his idea would be called 'tagging' but that's not what we called it then
2008-03-06 20:40 < Tony_Sidaway> And in return for showing you random pictures they end up with pictures classified by pose, state of dress, attractiveness, etc.
2008-03-06 20:42 < Tony_Sidaway> And as time goes on it becomes a search engine. You can type "upskirt teen schoolgirl" and you get about 1000 pretty Japanese girls all flashing their knickers at you.
2008-03-06 20:43 < Tony_Sidaway> I feel sorry for the newbie Wikipedian who just templated Giano. Twice.
2008-03-06 20:43 < Pilotguy> moo
2008-03-06 20:43 < Pilotguy> Hello Tony_Sidaway

2008-03-06 20:44 < Tony_Sidaway> Pilotguy: some nitwit spoiled all my fun by threatening to block me for it, so I stopped. It was getting boring anyway.
2008-03-06 20:45 < Cyrius> why is this a video?
2008-03-06 20:45 < Pilotguy> heh
2008-03-06 20:45 < Messedrocker> <Tony_Sidaway> They show you pictures and as long as you rate them or classify them they show you more. Of course it's addictive. << That's actually a very lucrative business model that has been employed in other places
2008-03-06 20:45 < Pilotguy> It's because me and my fancy signature left
2008-03-06 20:45 < Tony_Sidaway> Cirt: defending him from what?
2008-03-06 20:45 < TheWeasel> Well, if they didn't defend Wales, the Irish would invade Liverpool and Bristol.
2008-03-06 20:45 < Messedrocker> some guy with Wired magazine came up with a name for that kinda deal
2008-03-06 20:46 < Cirt> i dunno
2008-03-06 20:46 < Cirt> that's the web title
2008-03-06 20:46 < Cirt> just spreadin the info, judge for yourselves
2008-03-06 20:46 < Tony_Sidaway> TheWeasel: dammit now you're tempting me to vandalize Wales by adding a link to that article!
2008-03-06 20:46 < bumm13> Cirt: it keeps bitching that I need Flash 8 or later to view it (even though I do have later than 8 installed)
2008-03-06 20:46 < Cirt> oh
2008-03-06 20:46 < Cirt> sorry
2008-03-06 20:46 < Cirt> i dunno, i'm not great w/ flash stuff
2008-03-06 20:47 < TheWeasel> Tony_Sidaway: Just redirect the userpage.
2008-03-06 20:47 < Tony_Sidaway> I can see it but my computer doesn't have a loudspeaker
2008-03-06 20:47 < TheWeasel> It's a new joke, you know
2008-03-06 20:47 < Tony_Sidaway> Why don
2008-03-06 20:48 < Tony_Sidaway> Why dont these things have subtitles like on the proper television?
2008-03-06 20:48 < bumm13> (gah, changing my user agent didn't help >:( )
2008-03-06 20:48 < TheWeasel> My parents just watched a TV film on a new set
2008-03-06 20:48 < Tony_Sidaway> I used to always watch Rab C. Nesbitt with the subtitles on. I was raised within 200 miles of Glasgow but that doesn't mean I have an ear for the lingo.
2008-03-06 20:48 < TheWeasel> and they accidentally got the channel with the scene descriptions for the blind
2008-03-06 20:49 < TheWeasel> it was rather funny
2008-03-06 20:49 < TheWeasel> I dispatched things from ten miles afield
2008-03-06 20:49 < Messedrocker> heh
2008-03-06 20:49 < Messedrocker> she feels SORE-EE for jimmy wales
2008-03-06 20:49 < Messedrocker> how canadian :)
