2008-04-01 21:29 * Ceiling_Cat collects Monobi2's delicious tears
2008-04-01 21:32 < Cream> How can i report a open IP
2008-04-01 21:32 < Arwen> Cream, post it on the internets and let people DDoS it
2008-04-01 21:33 < Arwen> that usually works
2008-04-01 21:33 < Arwen> btw, all IPs are open
2008-04-01 21:33 < Monobi2> Ceiling_Cat: :(
2008-04-01 21:33 < Arwen> except 192.168.
2008-04-01 21:33 < Arwen> and 10.

2008-04-01 21:33 < Arwen> etc etc
2008-04-01 21:33 < Cream> i meant
2008-04-01 21:33 < Cream> a private proxy
2008-04-01 21:33 < Cream> used on Wikipedia
2008-04-01 21:33 < Arwen> we don't have issues with private proxies
2008-04-01 21:33 < Monobi2> Cream: DoS localhost :)

2008-04-01 22:01 * The359 was serious
2008-04-01 22:02 < Alkivar> wow... i think i have found the worst rick roll variation evar
2008-04-01 22:03 < Alkivar> from 1988... kids incorporated... when fergie was still on the cast: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AEPj-ln8HQ4
2008-04-01 22:08 < The359> sweet fuck I remember that show...
2008-04-01 22:09 < gwern> Internet killed the 'pedia star, internet killed the 'pedia star...
2008-04-01 22:09 < The359> wtf
2008-04-01 22:09 < The359> I don't remember Jennifer Love Hewitt being on there
2008-04-01 22:09 < Leslie_S> wtf does rick roll mean?
2008-04-01 22:09 < gwern> (put all the blame on teh internets...)
2008-04-01 22:09 < Cyrius> [[rickroll]]
2008-04-01 22:10 < gwern> Leslie_S: RTFW
2008-04-01 22:10 < Ceiling_Cat> internet killed hte video stars
2008-04-01 22:10 < Ceiling_Cat> except porn stars
2008-04-01 22:10 < Ceiling_Cat> it made them real famous
2008-04-01 22:10 < Ceiling_Cat> Jenna Jamison would be nothing if it weren't for that ubiquitous series of tubes
2008-04-01 22:11 < gwern> wasn't she mostly successful before dem dar intarnets?
2008-04-01 22:12 < gwern> phooey. I missed woot's bag of crap
2008-04-01 22:12 * gwern has always wnated to try one
2008-04-01 22:14 < Leslie_S> hheh, its so nice living on my own.
2008-04-01 22:14 < NotACow> moo
2008-04-01 22:14 < Leslie_S> im sitting here topless, and nobody is here to complain about it
2008-04-01 22:15 < NotACow> hah
2008-04-01 22:15 < Leslie_S> I'm assuming that its ok to do this in front of my gay roommates, right? :o
2008-04-01 22:15 < NotACow> i can sit around topless at home and nobody complains
2008-04-01 22:15 < NotACow> and i don't live alone
2008-04-01 22:15 < Leslie_S> Gay men, for the record
2008-04-01 22:15 < Ceogar> i have a top on
2008-04-01 22:15 < Ceogar> but no underwear
2008-04-01 22:16 < NotACow> Ceogar: have you taught it how to type yet?
2008-04-01 22:16 < Ceiling_Cat> be still my throbbing....... erm, yea
2008-04-01 22:16 * gwern doesn't want to answer that because I forget whether Leslie_S is a gay male, gay female, gay female-to-male, or gay male-to-female
2008-04-01 22:16 < Ceogar> NotACow to small :(
2008-04-01 22:16 < hardtodrink> hello
2008-04-01 22:16 * Fennec hmmblies.
2008-04-01 22:16 < Ceiling_Cat> Hello hardtodrink
2008-04-01 22:16 < Ceiling_Cat> FENNECUS!
2008-04-01 22:16 * Ceiling_Cat huggles
2008-04-01 22:16 < Fennec> hi!
2008-04-01 22:16 < NotACow> EEEEK
2008-04-01 22:17 < Fennec> thankeez
2008-04-01 22:17 < Leslie_S> gwern im a mostly straight female.
2008-04-01 22:17 < Leslie_S> male-to-female, and i <3 guys, so ....
2008-04-01 22:17 < The359> FUBAR
2008-04-01 22:17 < Leslie_S> i'm actually bi, but i dont have anything to offer the females, so .. :(
2008-04-01 22:18 < Ceogar> Leslie_S huh? nothing to offer?
2008-04-01 22:18 < Leslie_S> Ceiling_Cat LOL LOL LOL
2008-04-01 22:18 * gwern watches the needle waver at the too-much-information demarcation
2008-04-01 22:18 < Fennec> Leslie_S: hm. interesting, I guess.
2008-04-01 22:18 * Fennec laughs at gwern.
2008-04-01 22:18 < Fennec> Leslie_S: tell us more!
2008-04-01 22:18 * Fennec tortures gwern.
2008-04-01 22:18 < Leslie_S> lol
2008-04-01 22:18 < Leslie_S> my cock doesnt work
2008-04-01 22:19 < Leslie_S> so id rather be with a guy for the moment
2008-04-01 22:19 < gwern> if you're male to female, of course the cock doesn't work
2008-04-01 22:19 < Ceogar> AHH
2008-04-01 22:19 < Ceogar> need maintance?
2008-04-01 22:19 < Fennec> what's your, uh, transition-status-deal?
2008-04-01 22:19 < gwern> that would sort of defeat the point
2008-04-01 22:20 < NotACow> moo
2008-04-01 22:20 < NotACow> HAHAHA!
2008-04-01 22:20 < NotACow> i now know uninvitedcompany's HOME ADDRESS
2008-04-01 22:20 < NotACow> BWA HA HAH!
2008-04-01 22:21 < gwern> NotACow: oh noes! you know his True Name
2008-04-01 22:21 < gwern> pwnt
2008-04-01 22:21 < NotACow> gwern: well, yes, but so does practically everyone else. he did run for board, after all.
2008-04-01 22:22 < gwern> oh well
2008-04-01 22:22 * Fennec pokes Leslie_S
2008-04-01 22:22 < gwern> I suppose someone like SlimVirgin would be more interesting to know the True Name of, even if it just confirms she's linda mack or whoever
2008-04-01 22:25 < Alkivar> http://www.cnn.com/2008/CRIME/04/01/kids.plot.ap/index.html?iref=mpstoryview <-- seriously wtf is wrong with kids these days
2008-04-01 22:25 < Fennec> upbringing
2008-04-01 22:26 < ggreer> http://www.cnn.com/2008/LIVING/wayoflife/04/01/combat.marriages.ap/index.html
2008-04-01 22:26 < ggreer> bow chikka bow
2008-04-01 22:26 < Marlith> My, my
2008-04-01 22:27 < ggreer> that must have been a terrible terrible teacher
2008-04-01 22:27 < Fennec> Parents don't actually raise children anymore, by and large. They dump them at daycare and activities and in front of televisions. :P
2008-04-01 22:27 < ggreer> also how did the kids get hand cuffs?
2008-04-01 22:27 * NotACow wonders if bastique will be arrested in egypt, or just refused entry.
2008-04-01 22:28 < NotACow> ggreer: from their parents' bedroom, of course.
2008-04-01 22:28 < ggreer> NotACow: bow chikka bow
2008-04-01 22:28 < OvrLrd-Q> Alkivar: it's because parents are pussies now adays.
2008-04-01 22:28 < Ceiling_Cat> [[Black hole electron]]
2008-04-01 22:28 < Ceiling_Cat> WOW
2008-04-01 22:29 < Ceiling_Cat> apparently there's an old, never-disproven theory that electrons are mini black holes
2008-04-01 22:29 < ggreer> Ceiling_Cat: is that a new soundgarden song? :)
2008-04-01 22:29 * Ceiling_Cat lulz
2008-04-01 22:29 < Cyrius> Ceiling_Cat: that'd fuck with those guys trying to keep the LHC from starting up
2008-04-01 22:29 < ggreer> electrons are point particles
2008-04-01 22:30 < Ceiling_Cat> ggreer - no, they are not
2008-04-01 22:30 < ggreer> also black holes that size would evaporate due to hawking radiation
2008-04-01 22:30 < Ceiling_Cat> in quantum mechanics, they are treated as wave functions and clouds
2008-04-01 22:30 < Ceiling_Cat> in electrical engineering, they are treated as "soup"
2008-04-01 22:30 < NotACow> collapse my wave function already
2008-04-01 22:30 * Cyrius wonders how a black hole electron would tunnel
2008-04-01 22:30 * Ceiling_Cat collapses NotACow's wave function, steals her precious innocence along with it
2008-04-01 22:31 < NotACow> Cyrius: very aggressively.
2008-04-01 22:31 < Cyrius> saw that coming
2008-04-01 22:31 < ggreer> Ceiling_Cat: yeah, but that's really just a fancy way of saying the electron is moving really fast and is really small
2008-04-01 22:31 < NotACow> Ceiling_Cat: dude, i ain't got no innocence
2008-04-01 22:31 < ggreer> so it's probably in the P shell right now, sort of thing
2008-04-01 22:31 < uberpenguin> ggreer: hawking radiation isn't proven either
2008-04-01 22:31 < Fennec> well, existance is a bit fuzzy for such things
2008-04-01 22:32 < uberpenguin> though in a recent issue of Science there was a paper in which the authors have proposed a method of simulating an event horizon by which hawking radiation might be tested
2008-04-01 22:32 < ggreer> uberpenguin: I'd bet on it existing though
2008-04-01 22:32 < uberpenguin> ... betting on science?
2008-04-01 22:32 < miranda> you know that one entry on RFB, is that fake or serious?
2008-04-01 22:32 < uberpenguin> go to the horse races instead
2008-04-01 22:32 < uberpenguin> Hawking has been wrong before :3
2008-04-01 22:32 < Fennec> once or twice >.>
2008-04-01 22:33 < Ceiling_Cat> oh snap
2008-04-01 22:33 < ggreer> uberpenguin: yeah, he had to buy one of his colleagues a year's subscription to penthouse after he lost a bet
2008-04-01 22:33 < uberpenguin> Ceiling_Cat: also, we treat electrons however it's convenient, TYVM
2008-04-01 22:33 < uberpenguin> though i've never heard 'soup' before
2008-04-01 22:33 < Ceiling_Cat> uberpenguin - all of electrical engineering is based on the mass action of electrons
2008-04-01 22:33 < uberpenguin> that analogy might be more appropriate in cases of fermionic condensation, though then it's more like SUPERSOUP
2008-04-01 22:33 < ggreer> sometimes people treat electrons like water, with voltage being water pressure and current being volume
2008-04-01 22:34 < Ceiling_Cat> hence, the soup analogy
2008-04-01 22:34 < uberpenguin> Ceiling_Cat: except... you know... transistor theory
2008-04-01 22:34 < ggreer> heh
2008-04-01 22:34 < Ceiling_Cat> uberpenguin - transistors work based on mass action of electrons just as any other EE device does
2008-04-01 22:34 < uberpenguin> heh, no
2008-04-01 22:35 < uberpenguin> at certain levels they may use effective masses, but the models we have are fundamentally derived from solid-state physics...
2008-04-01 22:35 < uberpenguin> it's not cheating to use effective mass on a macro scale if the constant is derived from a model which considers the appropriate quantum effects
2008-04-01 22:36 < gwern> hee hee. freenet has some funny lolcats
2008-04-01 22:36 < gwern> copied, of course, but I haven't seen some of them
2008-04-01 22:36 < uberpenguin> which the Kronig-Penny model and others do
2008-04-01 22:36 < uberpenguin> hell, even in atomic physics we use 'effective radii' of particles
2008-04-01 22:36 < uberpenguin> ramble ramble
2008-04-01 22:37 < Ceiling_Cat> goodnight folks
2008-04-01 22:37 < uberpenguin> also, this will make you feel good: http://youtube.com/watch?v=e8yx4k4tzqE
2008-04-01 22:38 < Ceogar> good night Ceiling_Cat
2008-04-01 22:38 < gwern> uberpenguin: I'll bet that;s a rickroll!
2008-04-01 22:38 < uberpenguin> and if it doesn't, you're a damn pinko
2008-04-01 22:38 < uberpenguin> gwern: stop living in your insular meme-dominated world
2008-04-01 22:39 < gwern> uberpenguin: I can't! XAVIER GET OUT OF MAH HEAD!!1
2008-04-01 22:43 < uberpenguin> hoho... oh if only our understanding of transistors was limited to purely classical regimes
2008-04-01 22:44 < uberpenguin> we couldn't even begin to describe junction devices, much less Zener breakdown or electro-optic mechanics or TEDs
2008-04-01 22:44 < The359> I'M THE JUGGERNAUT BITCH
2008-04-01 22:44 < SkyRyder> who had the highest power in wikipedai
2008-04-01 22:45 < The359> Me
2008-04-01 22:45 < The359> what do you want
2008-04-01 22:45 < NotACow> The359: give me all your money

2008-04-01 23:23 < Fennec> already mentioned
2008-04-01 23:23 < denelson83> [ 7] YES, if you know what to search for
2008-04-01 23:23 < Fennec> oh, wait
2008-04-01 23:23 < Fennec> that was just 'popular video site'

2008-04-01 23:23 < Domthedude001> im running out of things man
2008-04-01 23:23 < Domthedude001> does this video display a computer?
2008-04-01 23:24 < Domthedude001> at all?
2008-04-01 23:24 < denelson83> Ambiguous
2008-04-01 23:24 < denelson83> You're getting colder
2008-04-01 23:24 < Gracenotes> Can this presentation be entirely emulated by an individual without a video camera?
2008-04-01 23:24 < Gracenotes> i.e., in real life, rather than filmer
2008-04-01 23:24 < Gracenotes> *filmed
2008-04-01 23:24 < Domthedude001> nice question
2008-04-01 23:24 < denelson83> [ 6] NO; you'd need more than one person
2008-04-01 23:25 < Gracenotes> ah, useful.
2008-04-01 23:25 < Domthedude001> is this a sort of 'trick'?
2008-04-01 23:25 < denelson83> [ 5] NO
2008-04-01 23:25 < denelson83> Ice cold
2008-04-01 23:25 < Domthedude001> lol
2008-04-01 23:25 < Domthedude001> Are these people doing a sport or other relevant activity?
2008-04-01 23:26 < denelson83> [ 4] YES, at some point in the presentation
2008-04-01 23:26 < Gracenotes> >.>
2008-04-01 23:26 < Domthedude001> lol
2008-04-01 23:26 < denelson83> You might want to go back to the type of presentation
2008-04-01 23:26 < Domthedude001> ok
2008-04-01 23:27 < Domthedude001> well it's entertainment
2008-04-01 23:27 < Domthedude001> or some sort of it
2008-04-01 23:27 < Domthedude001> it's not a trick
2008-04-01 23:27 < Gracenotes> maybe a movie?
2008-04-01 23:27 < Gracenotes> I don't think that was asked yet.
2008-04-01 23:27 < Domthedude001> is it a movie?
2008-04-01 23:27 < denelson83> [ 3] YES, one part of it
2008-04-01 23:27 < uberpenguin> twenty questions is most fun when you pick things that almost nobody is likely to know about
2008-04-01 23:27 < Gracenotes> hm, this seems complicated
2008-04-01 23:27 < Domthedude001> lol yeah i know
2008-04-01 23:27 < Gracenotes> uberpenguin: fun for whom?
2008-04-01 23:28 < uberpenguin> ME

2008-04-01 23:28 < denelson83> heh
2008-04-01 23:28 < Domthedude001> does this movie have many scenes?
2008-04-01 23:28 < denelson83> [ 2] YES
2008-04-01 23:29 < denelson83> But what I'm thinking of is not just a movie
2008-04-01 23:29 < The359> you clearly suck hard at this
2008-04-01 23:29 < denelson83> Hint: Hairballs
2008-04-01 23:29 < Domthedude001> are animals in this video?
2008-04-01 23:29 < denelson83> < 1> YES
2008-04-01 23:30 < Domthedude001> ok who wants to ask the last question?
2008-04-01 23:30 < Domthedude001> because i frankly have no clue lol
2008-04-01 23:30 < Domthedude001> i might as well ask if it's a toaster..

2008-04-01 23:30 < denelson83> That ain't a presentation, heh

2008-04-01 23:31 < denelson83> ROTFLMBFJHAO
2008-04-01 23:31 < uberpenguin> does the movie convey a cornucopian or doom-sayer point of view as regards sustainable ecological economics?
2008-04-01 23:31 < uberpenguin> ANSWER
2008-04-01 23:31 < denelson83> Whiskey tango foxtrot
2008-04-01 23:31 < Domthedude001> lol i probably wouldnt have got that
2008-04-01 23:32 < Domthedude001> but good game
2008-04-01 23:32 < Gracenotes> what's that?
2008-04-01 23:32 < denelson83> uberpenguin: That was already asked before; it's not "An Inconvenient Truth"
2008-04-01 23:32 * Gracenotes checks if we have another article on it
2008-04-01 23:32 < denelson83> One question left
2008-04-01 23:32 < uberpenguin> no it wasn't :|
2008-04-01 23:33 < Domthedude001> brb
2008-04-01 23:33 < denelson83> [21:18:10] <nokmar> is it an inconvenient truth?
2008-04-01 23:33 < denelson83> [21:18:13] <denelson83> [15] NO
2008-04-01 23:34 < denelson83> Meep! Meep!
2008-04-01 23:34 < uberpenguin> but I didn't ask whether it was a popsci propaganda video...
2008-04-01 23:35 < denelson83> I'm still waiting for the last question...
2008-04-01 23:36 < uberpenguin> question: are hams delicious?
2008-04-01 23:36 < denelson83> This is the presentation I was thinking of: http://tinyurl.com/s5qnv
2008-04-01 23:36 < uberpenguin> REPONDEZ SIL VOUS PLAIT
2008-04-01 23:51 * Mike_H NP: Andy Gibb - (Our Love) Don't Throw It All Away (1978)
2008-04-02 00:11 < tjstrf> Can I get a sanity check on something?
2008-04-02 00:21 < gwern> 'Chlorine trifluoride has been investigated as a high-performance storable oxidizer in rocket propellant systems. Handling concerns, however, prevented its use. Clark summarized the difficulties, "It is, of course, extremely toxic, but that's the least of the problem. It is hypergolic with every known fuel, and so rapidly hypergolic that no ignition delay has ever been measured. It is also hypergolic with such things as cloth, wood, ...
2008-04-02 00:21 < gwern> ... and test engineers, not to mention asbestos, sand, and water—with which it reacts explosively."'
2008-04-02 00:21 < gwern> *asbestos*
2008-04-02 00:21 < gwern> I think chlorine trifluoride just went to the top of my nightmare substances list
2008-04-02 00:24 < nokmar> what about botox?
2008-04-02 00:25 < nokmar> or tetanospasmin?
2008-04-02 00:25 < gwern> botox just poisons you. that stuff instantly burns and explodes you to death, and the ASBESTOS GOGGLES THEY DO NOTHING!
2008-04-02 00:26 < denelson83> What about nitrogen triiodide? It explodes when you touch it
2008-04-02 00:30 < The359> hmmm
2008-04-02 00:30 < The359> I'm wondering where to put a {{commonscat}} box on an article
2008-04-02 00:30 < gwern> denelson83: from the description, so does the chlorine
2008-04-02 00:30 < The359> I don't want to put it in the references section because then it just screws up the alignment of the references
2008-04-02 00:30 < gwern> The359: I always stick'em as the first item in Ext Links
2008-04-02 00:31 < gwern> nokmar: the irreverisbility of the tetanus toxin is nasty, yes
2008-04-02 00:31 < The359> there are no external links either
2008-04-02 00:31 < The359> Defunct race team, nothing to link to
2008-04-02 00:32 < nokmar> {{common scat}} =P
