2008-04-06 19:38 < Messedrocker> it's like a virus except antivirus companies are bribed to not pick it up
2008-04-06 19:38 < Messedrocker> and the goal is to infect computers worldwide
2008-04-06 19:38 < Lucifer_Cat> ok, Free Open Source S/w

2008-04-06 19:39 < Antibuddha> oh open source?
2008-04-06 19:39 < Lucifer_Cat> conspiracy theory for FOSS
2008-04-06 19:39 < Antibuddha> there is none
2008-04-06 19:39 < Lucifer_Cat> heh.
2008-04-06 19:39 < Antibuddha> open source programmers will die on their diet of ramen noodles
2008-04-06 19:40 < Antibuddha> and microsoft will win
2008-04-06 19:40 < Luna-San> To create the illusion of choice, of course. We think we're fighting the man when in reality it's used to track and control the resistance movement.
2008-04-06 19:40 < Lucifer_Cat> <Antibuddha> tell me something to make a conspiracy theory about and i'll give it to you in 30 seconds or less
2008-04-06 19:40 < Antibuddha> the conspiracy of FOSS, is that it doesnt even exist
2008-04-06 19:40 < Lucifer_Cat> phail
2008-04-06 19:40 < Lycurgus> LC: Elisabeth Kubler-Ross.
2008-04-06 19:41 < Antibuddha> enthusiasts of FOSS are in the fringes of society and they dont matter in the big scheme of things
2008-04-06 19:41 < Lucifer_Cat> good thing you didnt say 'Anything'
2008-04-06 19:41 < Lycurgus> 15 seconds left.
2008-04-06 19:41 < gwern> Lucifer_Cat: Keebler Elves, when you're done with Lycurgus
2008-04-06 19:41 < Lucifer_Cat> what are you guys buzzing me about
2008-04-06 19:41 < Lycurgus> times up.
2008-04-06 19:41 < Antibuddha> for the rest of humanity, the image of FOSS makes it appear that we got different options when in fact FOSS doesnt do jack in real life
2008-04-06 19:41 < Lucifer_Cat> Lycurgus: that should have gone to Antibuddha
2008-04-06 19:41 < Lycurgus> shaddup kid.
2008-04-06 19:42 < gwern> Antibuddha: Keebler Elves, go!
2008-04-06 19:42 < Lycurgus> you don't wtf ur ranting about
2008-04-06 19:42 < Lycurgus> a good rant takes some knowledge AND conviction
2008-04-06 19:42 < Messedrocker> Lycurgus, mostly conviction
2008-04-06 19:43 < Antibuddha> keebler elves are real life american factory workers, they spit in your cookies out of resentment over all the commercials of keebler elves they have when in fact they are living in squalor and misery working for a pittance in a sweatshop that can only usually be found in 3rd world countries
2008-04-06 19:43 < Lycurgus> not bad
2008-04-06 19:43 < gwern> Antibuddha: where's the conspiracy there?
2008-04-06 19:43 < Antibuddha> they dont spit in your food only, sometimes they put solvents in it or mercury
2008-04-06 19:43 < Antibuddha> gwern: the factory workers are the cause of 60% of chronic illnesses in america
2008-04-06 19:44 < Antibuddha> from all the poisons they stick in our food out of resentment of being thought of as keebler elves
2008-04-06 19:44 < gwern> hm. I'm still not seeing any 'they' or 'them' there
2008-04-06 19:44 < Antibuddha> schools go on factory tours of keebler's and the children call the workers elves in their faces
2008-04-06 19:45 * gwern derides Antibuddha's limited hangout2
2008-04-06 19:45 < gwern> *hangout
2008-04-06 19:45 < Antibuddha> studies show consuming keebler products may be linked with autism
2008-04-06 19:45 < Lucifer_Cat> is it just me or can no one see any theory
2008-04-06 19:45 < Fennec> Hg. stands for Hug.
2008-04-06 19:46 < Antibuddha> there is no theory it is outright conspiracy to kill everyone who eats keebler cookies
2008-04-06 19:46 < Antibuddha> it is even more malicious than water fluoridation
2008-04-06 19:49 < Lucifer_Cat> i dont see any advantage/vested interest in it
2008-04-06 19:49 < Lycurgus> hey no fair, gwern got the nude photos and the rest of us didn't
2008-04-06 19:49 < Lycurgus> don't sell your hangout short, kid

2008-04-06 19:50 < Antibuddha> i've heard theories that wikipedia is owned by the CIA
2008-04-06 19:50 < Antibuddha> is this true?
2008-04-06 19:50 < Cyrius> no
2008-04-06 19:50 < Cyrius> we're owned by the USDA
2008-04-06 19:51 < gwern> ever wonder why our meat articles sound so delicious?
2008-04-06 19:51 < Antibuddha> are you making us eat gmo food?
2008-04-06 19:51 < gwern> NOW YOU KNOW THE TRUTH
2008-04-06 19:51 < Antibuddha> you guys are bad human beings
2008-04-06 19:51 < Antibuddha> you should delete wikipedia and repent
2008-04-06 19:51 < Antibuddha> love your lord and savior jesus christ
2008-04-06 19:52 < Monobi2> Antibuddha: you should delete buddha
2008-04-06 19:52 < Anti> taken

2008-04-06 19:53 < Cyrius> if he meats the Buddha, he will kill him in a massive burst of gamma rays
2008-04-06 19:54 < Lycurgus> there's load of Xian wikipedians

2008-04-06 19:56 < AntiPro> if being anti pro becomes popular, it will shake the foundation of the hegelian dialectic of thesis and antithesis converging
2008-04-06 19:56 < nsh> i really want to see a website with alltime funniest things written on banknotes
2008-04-06 19:56 < nsh> that would enrich the monotony of my worldline
2008-04-06 19:56 < AntiPro> im really disturbed by those Where's Washington? bills
2008-04-06 19:56 < AntiPro> anyone else seen them?
2008-04-06 19:57 < nsh> washington's gone missing?!?

2008-04-06 19:57 < Ceiling_Cat> Messedrocker - that nick NEEDZ MAOR KATZ!
2008-04-06 19:58 < AntiPro> nsh: there's Where's Washington bills circulating, it is supposedly trying to track how money travels. people go online and type in the bill's number to help the research
2008-04-06 19:58 < Enterprise_Cat> AntiPro: Why would they disturb you?
2008-04-06 19:58 < AntiPro> but imo its engramming in people's brains that it is normal to track money
2008-04-06 19:58 < Enterprise_Cat> And btw, it's called "Where's George"
2008-04-06 19:58 < AntiPro> oh
2008-04-06 19:58 < AntiPro> sorry i have bad memory
2008-04-06 19:58 < Messedrocker> They should have one for 20s called "Where's Andy?"
2008-04-06 19:58 < AntiPro> i have seen a lot of them because i work at a gas station
2008-04-06 19:59 < Enterprise_Cat> AntiPro: Why does it disturb you so much?
2008-04-06 19:59 < Messedrocker> I can respond "HE'S RESTING IN A HOLE IN THE GROUND AND IF YOU WAKE HIM UP HE'LL KICK YOUR ASS BACK TO 1828"
2008-04-06 19:59 < AntiPro> Enterprise_Cat: because it is making it seem okay for money to be tracked
2008-04-06 19:59 < Enterprise_Cat> XD
2008-04-06 19:59 < AntiPro> something like rfid locatable money
2008-04-06 19:59 < Enterprise_Cat> AntiPro: Money is being tracked at this very second
2008-04-06 19:59 < nsh> AntiPro, money goes to the extralegal sector and saudiarabia
2008-04-06 19:59 < nsh> obviously
2008-04-06 20:00 < Enterprise_Cat> AntiPro: If that disturbs you so much, did you know that just by coming on IRC I can pinpoint your location on the Earth?

2008-04-06 20:04 < nsh> america will be in pieces by then :-/
2008-04-06 20:04 < Messedrocker> when being initiated as a scientologist, the person barrages you with insults and you must keep a straight face
2008-04-06 20:04 < Messedrocker> otherwise you fail the test
2008-04-06 20:04 < nsh> (the continent, not the unioncakes)

2008-04-06 20:08 < Alkivar> yes and the answer AntiPro is yes that rash is normal, it comes from playign with yourself too much

2008-04-06 20:08 < AntiPro> nsh: technically you arent telepathic, but the device is telepathic
2008-04-06 20:08 < Enterprise_Cat> nsh: Resistance is futile?
2008-04-06 20:09 < gwern> 'hivemind homies'. lord forfend. homie are mindless enough already

2008-04-06 20:17 * Ceiling_Cat puts a cat-jacket on Enterprise_Cat to keep him from getting cold
2008-04-06 20:17 * Wikiacc laughs
2008-04-06 20:17 < Enterprise_Cat> George W. Bush Quote: "Rarely does one ask: 'Is our children learning?'"
2008-04-06 20:17 < Wikiacc> those cat-jackets are a huge joke
2008-04-06 20:17 < Wikiacc> as is the Bush presidency
2008-04-06 20:17 * Ceiling_Cat nods to the latter
2008-04-06 20:17 < Messedrocker> Enterprise_Cat, that reminds me of someone saying Poland wasn't under Soviet influence
2008-04-06 20:18 * Wikiacc notes it's hard to put food on your family
2008-04-06 20:18 < Ceiling_Cat> I watched [[Death of a President]] yesterday
2008-04-06 20:18 < Ceiling_Cat> great premise, but it tends to ramble towards the end
2008-04-06 20:18 < Leslie_S> Enterprise_Cat nice
2008-04-06 20:18 < Wikiacc> Death of a Salesman, who's the president? :P
2008-04-06 20:18 < Enterprise_Cat> Messedrocker: How did the Russian government waste years of work and millions of dollars in building a weapon that would't work?
2008-04-06 20:18 < Lycurgus> that was Mondale wasn't it?
2008-04-06 20:18 < Ceiling_Cat> Wikiacc - it's a documentary about a fictional successful assassination of George W. Bush
2008-04-06 20:18 < Messedrocker> no i think it was Ford
2008-04-06 20:18 < Messedrocker> or Carter
2008-04-06 20:18 < Enterprise_Cat> Messedrocker: No, this is a joke
2008-04-06 20:18 < Ceiling_Cat> And what happens afterwards
2008-04-06 20:18 < Alkivar> I watched Vantage Point today
2008-04-06 20:18 < Alkivar> good movie
2008-04-06 20:18 < Ceiling_Cat> with President Cheney
2008-04-06 20:18 * Wikiacc had a history teacher who claimed that Austria was part of the Warsaw Pact, no matter how many times students tried to tell her it was neutral
2008-04-06 20:19 * Ceiling_Cat shudders at those words
2008-04-06 20:19 < Enterprise_Cat> Messedrocker: They build a nuclear hand grenade
2008-04-06 20:19 < Alkivar> too bad the president in that one lived
2008-04-06 20:19 < Messedrocker> http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_U.S._presidential_faux-pas,_gaffes,_and_unfortunate_incidents
2008-04-06 20:19 < Wikiacc> haha
2008-04-06 20:19 < Lycurgus> later taters
2008-04-06 20:19 < Ceiling_Cat> Enterprise_Cat - no, there is no such thing as a nuclear hand grenade
2008-04-06 20:19 < Messedrocker> Enterprise_Cat, I was talking to Lycurgus
2008-04-06 20:19 < Alkivar> Messedrocker: i hope nixon telling australia to fuck off is on that list
2008-04-06 20:19 < gwern> Lycurgus: in a while crocodile
2008-04-06 20:19 * Wikiacc will bbl
2008-04-06 20:19 < Ceiling_Cat> the smallest A-bomb ever built was 50 or 60 pounds
2008-04-06 20:20 < Ceiling_Cat> the idea of a briefcase nuke is an urban myth
2008-04-06 20:20 < Ceiling_Cat> (let alone a hand-grenade)
2008-04-06 20:20 < AntiPro> a briefcase can weigh 50 pounds
2008-04-06 20:20 < Alkivar> thats what they want you to think
2008-04-06 20:20 < gwern> heavy briefcase
2008-04-06 20:20 < Alkivar> i guarantee you could make a small backpack sized tactical nuke
2008-04-06 20:20 < Alkivar> granted the output level would be quite small
2008-04-06 20:20 < Alkivar> but it would be bigger than a car load of conventional c4
2008-04-06 20:21 < AntiPro> a nuclear body bomb is every suicidal bomber's wet dream
2008-04-06 20:21 < Ceiling_Cat> the smallest nuke ever built
2008-04-06 20:21 < Ceiling_Cat> hold on, I actually got a pic of it
2008-04-06 20:21 < Ceiling_Cat> http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image:Recoilless_gun_155mm_Davy_Crockett4.jpg
2008-04-06 20:21 < Alkivar> Raul: drastically obsolete technology there
2008-04-06 20:21 < Ceiling_Cat> [[Davy Crockett (nuclear device)]]
2008-04-06 20:22 < AntiPro> instead of a nuclear briefcase, why not a nuclear wheeled luggage?
2008-04-06 20:22 < gwern> see, the problem with that is so much is secret
2008-04-06 20:22 < Ceiling_Cat> Alkivar - the US hasn't designed a new nuclear weapon in ~30 years
2008-04-06 20:22 < Alkivar> lol
2008-04-06 20:22 < Ceiling_Cat> the Bush administration *just* last year started working on one
2008-04-06 20:22 < Alkivar> and if you believe that i have a bridge to sell you
2008-04-06 20:22 < Ceiling_Cat> it was news - they talked about it on NPR
2008-04-06 20:22 < Lucifer_Cat> Main article: Jimmy Carter rabbit incident
2008-04-06 20:22 < Alkivar> just like we never made chemical weapons at Ft Detrick
2008-04-06 20:23 < Alkivar> and we didnt have an ebola outbreak on US soil
2008-04-06 20:23 < Ceiling_Cat> Alkivar - it's rather hard to design a nuke when you are not allowed to test it
2008-04-06 20:23 * Cream huggles Ceiling_Cat
2008-04-06 20:23 < Alkivar> *cough* Reston VA *cough*
2008-04-06 20:23 < gwern> Ceiling_Cat: they seem pretty confident in the supercomputer simulations
2008-04-06 20:23 < Alkivar> just because you cant test it ... doesnt mean they havent built it
2008-04-06 20:23 < Ceiling_Cat> gwern - hehe, funny you should say that. That's my area of speciality
2008-04-06 20:23 < Invisible_Cat> Moar Catz!
2008-04-06 20:23 < gwern> after all, we're entrusting 'the security of our nation's nuclear stockpile' to simulations, aren't we?
2008-04-06 20:24 < gwern> Ceiling_Cat: I figured the subject would be near and dear to you
2008-04-06 20:24 < AntiPro> the US govt isnt telling americans about their nuclear research because they intend to do a lot more hiroshimas and nagasakis domestically
2008-04-06 20:24 < AntiPro> just kidding
2008-04-06 20:24 < Ceiling_Cat> gwern - nuclear simulations are some of the largest problems (theoretically) do-able on today's largest super computers
2008-04-06 20:24 < Alkivar> we cant test the effectiveness of the latest weaponized strain of smallpox on humans... but we theoretically know what it can do
2008-04-06 20:24 < gwern> Alkivar: what monkeys are for
2008-04-06 20:24 < Alkivar> gwern: so not the same reaction
2008-04-06 20:25 < AntiPro> you have to build a city of monkeys and wtch how the plague is carried and transferred
2008-04-06 20:25 < Alkivar> do the research some time... you'll find weaponized strains can kill monkeys and have 0 effect on humans
2008-04-06 20:25 < AntiPro> preferably a whole nation of monkeys
2008-04-06 20:25 < Undeference> sometime in the future we'll have a war and end up wiping out all our enemy's zoos
2008-04-06 20:25 * Ceiling_Cat notices we lack an article on [[Soft scaling]]
2008-04-06 20:25 < Alkivar> Undeference: sadly you could be right
2008-04-06 20:25 < AntiPro> Alkivar: ok then i guess we just have to use human test subjects
2008-04-06 20:26 < AntiPro> i say we test all future bioweapons on san franciscans
2008-04-06 20:26 < AntiPro> blow up the bridge so they cant escape
2008-04-06 20:26 < AntiPro> haha!
2008-04-06 20:26 < Alkivar> AntiPro: how about sex offenders and third world countries?
2008-04-06 20:26 < Ceiling_Cat> AntiPro - no no, testing shit that's bad for you is why we bother keeping the dirty south around
2008-04-06 20:26 * Ceiling_Cat suggests they start with texas
2008-04-06 20:26 < Alkivar> hey not all texas is bad... how about west virginia?
2008-04-06 20:26 < Ceiling_Cat> (preferably crawford)
2008-04-06 20:26 < Alkivar> we dont want them breeding anyways
2008-04-06 20:26 < AntiPro> Alkivar: well if you want... but nothing is as good as releasing ebola on a modern city
2008-04-06 20:26 < Ceiling_Cat> Alkivar - actually, we did a poll in here the other day
2008-04-06 20:27 < Ceiling_Cat> 'Dirtiest state in the south'
2008-04-06 20:27 < Ceiling_Cat> Alabama won
2008-04-06 20:27 < Alkivar> lol really?
2008-04-06 20:27 < Ceiling_Cat> WV was up there
2008-04-06 20:27 < Alkivar> i would have expected lousiana to win now... but i guess since all the black folks moved out cause of katrina no one wants to destroy it now
2008-04-06 20:27 < Ceiling_Cat> NotACat - this might come as a shock, but everyone is part lizard
2008-04-06 20:27 < Ceiling_Cat> see [[Reptilian complex]]
2008-04-06 20:28 < gwern> well, new orleans would be a good place to live again

2008-04-06 20:40 < Leslie_S> Lucifer_Cat first of all, im not allowed to have comcast here. second, comcast SUCKS. third, my dsl is faster than my cable was when i lived with my parents.
2008-04-06 20:40 < Leslie_S> Lucifer_Cat also, my internet is a totally reasonable price.
2008-04-06 20:41 < Lucifer_Cat> well...

2008-04-06 20:41 < Leslie_S> $70/month for landline with all useful features and 6mbps internet.
2008-04-06 20:41 < Leslie_S> And i only pay half of it because i have a roommate
2008-04-06 20:41 < Lucifer_Cat> i know how you feel though. i once bought stuff from walmart and then at the atm found out i only had 39 bucks in my account.
2008-04-06 20:41 < Leslie_S> My mom was my roommate at first, and insisted on having caller id and all that bullshit i dont need. Then she moved out within a week. fucking moron :(
2008-04-06 20:42 < Leslie_S> but its only $10 extra a month for that crap
2008-04-06 20:42 < Leslie_S> My new roommate is smarter than my mom though.
2008-04-06 20:42 < Lucifer_Cat> Leslie_S: not nice to call your mom that.
2008-04-06 20:42 < Leslie_S> Lucifer_Cat She shouldnt have done this to me.
2008-04-06 20:42 < gwern> yo momma so stupid any random roommate is smarter
2008-04-06 20:42 < Leslie_S> Its not like she did something nice to me.
2008-04-06 20:42 < Lucifer_Cat> well
2008-04-06 20:43 < Leslie_S> gwern its not a random roommate. its a guy i work with, who has enough common sense to know that you dont sign a 1 year lease and then use the leased property for 2 days, and then expect to not have to pay your full share of bills until a replacement is found.
2008-04-06 20:44 < gwern> 2 days? what did you do to her?
2008-04-06 20:44 < Leslie_S> gwern nothing. she moved in with her boyfriend, who she had known for two weeks.
2008-04-06 20:44 < gwern> she sound slutty.
2008-04-06 20:45 < Lucifer_Cat> is no one in your family sane?
2008-04-06 20:45 < Leslie_S> yes, not a single member of my family is sane, including me.
2008-04-06 20:45 < Leslie_S> But atleast i can go longer than a day without having a man.
2008-04-06 20:45 < gwern> Lucifer_Cat: you walked into that un
2008-04-06 20:46 < Leslie_S> Actually, my crazy aunt seems to be perfectly sane now.
2008-04-06 20:46 < Lucifer_Cat> gwern: i think she was talkin bout her mom
2008-04-06 20:46 < Leslie_S> Getting off the crack helped greatly.
2008-04-06 20:46 < gwern> 'including me'
2008-04-06 20:46 < Lucifer_Cat> gwern: that was the whole implication

2008-04-06 20:55 < Lucifer_Cat> thats y i needed to sak
2008-04-06 20:55 < Lucifer_Cat> ask*
2008-04-06 21:00 < miranda> what do you do if a banned user is currently abusing his talk page in order to soapbox?
2008-04-06 21:01 < Leslie_S> miranda have an admin protect it.
2008-04-06 21:01 < miranda> ok can an admin protect http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User_talk:SexyNupe2000
2008-04-06 21:01 < Leslie_S> i will consider it
2008-04-06 21:02 * bumm13 fixes disc-burning issue
2008-04-06 21:05 < miranda> I'll just make an ANI post
2008-04-06 21:06 < Leslie_S> Protected.
2008-04-06 21:06 < miranda> thanks Leslie_S
2008-04-06 21:06 < Leslie_S> No ani need.
2008-04-06 21:06 < Leslie_S> I havent been around much lately.
2008-04-06 21:06 < Leslie_S> is ani still just basically a bitchfest like it was a couple years ago?
2008-04-06 21:07 < Leslie_S> gwern attractiveness only depends on gender to some people.
2008-04-06 21:11 < miranda> no, Leslie_S , it's worse
2008-04-06 21:12 < Lubaf> Well, this has to be the best April Fool's day fake story I've seen in a while: http://www.feministgamers.com/?p=373 "Authorities bust illegal Pokémon fighting ring"
2008-04-06 21:17 < Lucifer_Cat> Leslie_S: you an admin?
2008-04-06 21:17 < Lucifer_Cat> coool
2008-04-06 21:17 < quanticle> I'd always wondered about that. If Pokemon are so powerful and so awesome, why don't they overthrow their puny human overlords?
2008-04-06 21:17 < Lucifer_Cat> quanticle: theyre into Sado-Maschoism
2008-04-06 21:18 < gwern> quanticle: they're like dogs, bred to be docile
2008-04-06 21:18 < gwern> dogs could rip our throats out, but how often does that happen?
2008-04-06 21:18 < Lucifer_Cat> gwern: my explanation is cooler
2008-04-06 21:18 < gwern> you can be sure the wild pokemon are being hunted down
2008-04-06 21:18 < Lucifer_Cat> yours makes more sense though
2008-04-06 21:18 * NoPegs thought they were bread for their copious drool...
2008-04-06 21:18 < gwern> why do you think there are so few shinies and legendaries, hm?
2008-04-06 21:18 < Lucifer_Cat> *bred
2008-04-06 21:18 < gwern> most of the populations got turned into crispy critters and mounted heads
2008-04-06 21:19 * NoPegs wipes up the drool with some nice whole wheat...
2008-04-06 21:19 < quanticle> gwern: That's true, but most dogs aren't bred for fighting. And those dogs that are bred for fighting can and do turn on their owners.
2008-04-06 21:19 < gwern> (a hit: the zapdoses? all gone for feathers for womens' hats)
2008-04-06 21:19 < gwern> *hint
2008-04-06 21:19 < Lucifer_Cat> heh, some gal msgd me asking me about my thoughts on the democratic race.
2008-04-06 21:19 < SWATJester> I would want to go on a real legitimate pokemon safari. Hunt dangerous pokemon, shoot them, and then skin them for nice coats.
2008-04-06 21:19 < Lucifer_Cat> i sent back a pagelong reply without using 'superdelegates'
2008-04-06 21:20 < quanticle> SWATJester: What I wouldn't do for a Charizard leather coat...
2008-04-06 21:20 < SWATJester> Squirtle skin boots
2008-04-06 21:20 < Nihiltres> .•°˚.•oO°˚ .-•-o-O-°-˚
2008-04-06 21:20 < gwern> SWATJester: what do you think happens in the 'Safari Zone'?
2008-04-06 21:20 < SWATJester> zubat skin wallet
2008-04-06 21:20 < gwern> the truth is obvious even in the first games!
2008-04-06 21:20 < quanticle> SWATJester: Pikachu skin gloves for working on electrical appliances.
2008-04-06 21:21 < SWATJester> Pokemon games should have more guns
2008-04-06 21:21 < Lucifer_Cat> ok i need help in here, Nihiltres has been doing acid again
2008-04-06 21:22 < gwern> Lucifer_Cat: tell him there aren't really any spiders eating his eyes, or that the laws of physics were not actually repealed - whichever is most appropriate
2008-04-06 21:22 * Nihiltres short-cicuits
2008-04-06 21:22 < Nihiltres> *
2008-04-06 21:22 * Nihiltres short-circuits
2008-04-06 21:22 * Lucifer_Cat feels like spiders are eating HIS eyes
2008-04-06 21:22 < SWATJester> it'd be great for balance. RPG's and mortars would be needed for rock type pokemon, but small fast pokemon would necessitate fast shooting small arms.
2008-04-06 21:22 * gwern contemplates. Mm.... eye fluid...
2008-04-06 21:22 < SWATJester> fire types vulnerable to heat seeking missiles, electric types to radar guided etc.
2008-04-06 21:23 < Lucifer_Cat> though seriously, i wish i could do acid once. to see how it feels.
2008-04-06 21:23 < Lucifer_Cat> hey is acid tripping legal in any country?
2008-04-06 21:23 < gwern> SWATJester: wouldn't electrical types be able to zap incoming missiles?
2008-04-06 21:23 < SWATJester> they'd be grounded
2008-04-06 21:24 < bumm13> I've heard that the quality of acid nowadays is far less than it once was
2008-04-06 21:24 < SWATJester> Predator drones counter ghost type etc.
2008-04-06 21:24 < SWATJester> since there are no humans to possess
2008-04-06 21:24 < gwern> I dunno. those pikachus can put out serious kilowattage
2008-04-06 21:24 < bumm13> (and availability decreased a few years ago due to a major lab bust in California several years ago)
2008-04-06 21:24 < gwern> SWATJester: what? physical attacks don't work against ghost types
2008-04-06 21:24 < gwern> you need elemental attacks against ghost
2008-04-06 21:24 < bumm13> oops, Dept. of Redundancy Dept. :P
2008-04-06 21:24 < Alkivar> http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xvEH64F6Upk
2008-04-06 21:24 < Alkivar> ZOMG
2008-04-06 21:25 < SWATJester> So make it an electronic warfare predator drone
2008-04-06 21:25 * bumm13 has no experience with such substances
2008-04-06 21:25 < gwern> SWATJester: I don't think electronic warfare techniques would be helpful
2008-04-06 21:26 < quanticle> SWATJester: For ghost type pokemon you'd need GhostBuster gear
2008-04-06 21:26 < gwern> quanticle: no, flamethrowers would be appropriate, iirc
2008-04-06 21:26 < SWATJester> ok so maybe not strong against ghost
2008-04-06 21:26 < gwern> I believe fire attacks affected ghost
2008-04-06 21:26 < SWATJester> but ghost would be ineffective against predator
2008-04-06 21:26 < SWATJester> since there's nothing living for it to damage
2008-04-06 21:26 < Nihiltres> true enough
2008-04-06 21:26 < quanticle> gwern: That too. Flamethrowers/gas weapons might be ok, since they are more area-denial weapons.
2008-04-06 21:27 < Nihiltres> but don't they have acid/poison attacks?
2008-04-06 21:27 * Nihiltres has a little brother
2008-04-06 21:27 < quanticle> Nihiltres: That's where antidotes/acid-resistant garb comes into play.
2008-04-06 21:27 < gwern> they should; not all their attacks are pure status attacks
2008-04-06 21:27 < gwern> I'm sure Gengar at least had some non-mental attacks
2008-04-06 21:29 < bumm13> Lucifer_Cat - in the Netherlands, a license is required to possess LSD
2008-04-06 21:29 < Lucifer_Cat> bumm13: what does it take to get it
2008-04-06 21:29 < Leslie_S> wow, weird. I thought i had brownish-reddish hair (to the point where people were telling me that my hair was red, and not brown!)
2008-04-06 21:29 < Leslie_S> But apparently it was just rust deposits from crap well water!
2008-04-06 21:29 < bumm13> no idea
2008-04-06 21:29 < bumm13> possibly research credentials
2008-04-06 21:29 < Lucifer_Cat> looks like i'll have a month long trip to Neatherlands, to live out my filthy perverted fantasies
2008-04-06 21:29 < gwern> Leslie_S: interesting. is just brown hair an improvement?
2008-04-06 21:30 < Lucifer_Cat> just FYI, my fantasies involve nothing younger than 17
2008-04-06 21:30 < Leslie_S> gwern no, the old color wsa fine, except it made my highlights look a little bit on the orange side instead of blonde
2008-04-06 21:30 < quanticle> Leslie_S: The fact that your water has enough rust to color your hair is just slightly disturbing.
2008-04-06 21:30 < Leslie_S> gwern but the highlights were orange-ish even when i first did them, which is odd.
2008-04-06 21:31 < Leslie_S> quanticle 4ppm. enough to clog anything you use to try to remove it.
2008-04-06 21:31 < bumm13> apparently, LSD is subject to so-called international law
2008-04-06 21:31 < Leslie_S> quanticle i live elsewhere now. i just have to deal with chlorine now
2008-04-06 21:31 < bumm13> so it's basically not legal anywhere
2008-04-06 21:31 < Leslie_S> bumm13 thats really sad ;/
2008-04-06 21:31 < quanticle> Leslie_S: Ah. So your hair color is changing now that there's no rust in the water?
2008-04-06 21:32 < Leslie_S> quanticle no, it changed because i used a shampoo intended to remove crap like that and make the real color of my hair show
2008-04-06 21:32 < quanticle> Ah. Ok.
2008-04-06 21:33 < quanticle> SWATJester: Hmmm, could fire-type pokemon use their fire attacks to create "flare" or decoy targets for the heat seeking missiles?
2008-04-06 21:33 < SWATJester> I think the'd be hotter than the decoys
2008-04-06 21:33 < quanticle> SWATJester: Also, what would you use against ice-types? Flamethrowers?
2008-04-06 21:33 < quanticle> Oh, I know! Thermite grenades.
2008-04-06 21:34 < bumm13> in 2006, Mexican president (former?) Vicente Fox apparently refused to sign a bill that would have legalized a ton of drugs that aren't normally legal in most countries
2008-04-06 21:34 < Messedrocker> former
2008-04-06 21:34 < SWATJester> Sure, incendiary devices
2008-04-06 21:34 < bumm13> (drugs in small quantities)
2008-04-06 21:34 < bumm13> yeah, I thought so
2008-04-06 21:36 < quanticle> SWATJester: I'd actually like to see this game now, even though it has less than a snowball's chance in hell of actually getting licensed.
2008-04-06 21:38 < Leslie_S> bumm13 wtf
2008-04-06 21:40 < NotACow> HIDE!
2008-04-06 21:40 < SWATJester> Fuck licensing, I'd want to play a flash game of it
2008-04-06 21:40 < Lucifer_Cat> mooo
2008-04-06 21:41 * NotACow revokes SWATJester's license
2008-04-06 21:41 < SWATJester> you could just mod a rom of one of the basic pokemon games, and change the attacks to various gun types
2008-04-06 21:41 < Messedrocker> SWATJester, modding the Pokemon ROMs is notoriously hard
2008-04-06 21:41 < SWATJester> o rly?
2008-04-06 21:41 < Messedrocker> because the code is arranged so awkwardly
2008-04-06 21:41 < gwern> Messedrocker: really? why
2008-04-06 21:42 < SWATJester> unsurprisng
2008-04-06 21:42 < SWATJester> nintendo would intentionally do that
2008-04-06 21:42 < SWATJester> brb running downstairs
2008-04-06 21:42 < Messedrocker> I don't know
2008-04-06 21:43 < Messedrocker> It's not like other games are notoriously difficult to mod
