2008-05-05 15:58 < quanticle> amidaniel: What kind of data are you sorting?
2008-05-05 15:59 < quanticle> amidaniel: Radix sort is always a good solution for fixed format data.
2008-05-05 16:01 < Lubaf> I can has teh flesh of teh livin?
2008-05-05 16:03 < quanticle> Lubaf: I'm sorry, but zombie sort just has too much time complexity. amidaniel just doesn't have three and a half days to wait for the zombie horde reanimation process to complete.
2008-05-05 16:07 < Phoenixwi> if he wants a sentient bag of flesh give him one ffs...
2008-05-05 16:09 < quanticle> Phoenixwi: Well, zombies aren't exactly sentient.
2008-05-05 16:09 < Phoenixwi> yes he's not asking foir zombie is he? "I can has teh flesh of teh *livin*?"
2008-05-05 16:11 < quanticle> Phoenixwi: Ah, true enough.

2008-05-05 16:14 < quanticle> Phoenixwi: If its anywhere close to the prettiness of C&C 3, sign me up.
2008-05-05 16:14 < quanticle> Phoenixwi: Heh. I haven't been paying attention to RTS games for a while.
2008-05-05 16:14 < Phoenixwi> in the text on a page were the words "Red" "Alert" and "Three", and they were all capitalised. It's been announced officially now

2008-05-05 16:40 < Yume-no-Neko> Will you keep it in an austrian cellar?
2008-05-05 16:40 < The359> no, quanticle
2008-05-05 16:41 < The359> it was found in a tree outside a bar
2008-05-05 16:41 < The359> no other cats were seen nearby
2008-05-05 16:41 < The359> and it's only about 3 weeks old

2008-05-05 16:42 < Mike_H> in another channel
2008-05-05 16:42 < Mike_H> and I thought of you.
2008-05-05 16:42 < Mike_H> <3
2008-05-05 16:42 < quanticle> Hello32020: Well, to be fair, I wouldn't count the Burmese government entirely blameless in this. After all, a similar cyclone struck Bangladesh last year, and Bangladesh is, by most metrics, even more vulnerable to cyclones (higher population density, lower median elevation, etc.). However, because the Bangladeshi government had prepared for large tropical storms, the population was largely safe.
2008-05-05 16:43 < ThePolecat> werd..
2008-05-05 16:43 < ThePolecat> Bangladesh is a reasonably responsible government that knows how to ask for help.
2008-05-05 16:43 < ThePolecat> *has
2008-05-05 16:43 < ThePolecat> Burma's is batshit crazy.
2008-05-05 16:44 * Ceiling_Cat huggles ThePolecat
2008-05-05 16:44 < ThePolecat> :-)
2008-05-05 16:44 < Demi> isn't it myanmar now? again?
2008-05-05 16:44 < quanticle> ThePolecat: As far as military juntas go, Bangladeshis aren't so bad off. I'd definitely rate Bangladesh as more like Thailand than Burma.
2008-05-05 16:44 < quanticle> Demi: Burma is a hell of a lot easier to type.
2008-05-05 16:44 < ThePolecat> Myanmar is the official name, so some people say it should be avoided
2008-05-05 16:45 < Demi> ah, right, like how some people call it "A New Hope" but i insist on calling it "Star Wars"
2008-05-05 16:45 < kenlyric> hillbillies want to be called sons of the soil, but it's not going to happen
2008-05-05 16:45 < ThePolecat> Whoseanmar?
2008-05-05 16:45 < quanticle> Demi: 'cept that Both "A New Hope" and "Star Wars" have the same number of letters.
2008-05-05 16:46 < Demi> that was more to ThePolecat's point
2008-05-05 16:46 < ThePolecat> Yea.
2008-05-05 16:46 < quanticle> ThePolecate: Euthanasia? But what about the youth in Europe?
2008-05-05 16:46 < Demi> i still call it Army Street, for example, in San Francisco, though its official name now is Cesar Chavez Blvd
2008-05-05 16:47 < ThePolecat> yea, definitely on par in communist-ness :-P
2008-05-05 16:47 < quanticle> Demi: Or, more relatedly, I still call it Zaire, even when its name was "Democratic Republic of the Congo".
2008-05-05 16:47 < Mike_H> quanticle: The youth in Asia, that's a very important issue facing society today.
2008-05-05 16:47 < Mike_H> Do we kill them
2008-05-05 16:47 < Mike_H> or not?
2008-05-05 16:47 < Mike_H> They clearly want release.
2008-05-05 16:47 < quanticle> Mike_H: Euthanize the youth in Asia? Madness!
2008-05-05 16:47 < Mike_H> quanticle: it's okay, you're in the US now
2008-05-05 16:48 < Mike_H> you're exempt
2008-05-05 16:48 < ThePolecat> Youth in ice is euthanasia?
2008-05-05 16:48 < quanticle> At the rate we're going, the raw punnery will be fatal enough.
2008-05-05 16:48 < Demi> he who would pun would pick a pocket
2008-05-05 16:49 < ThePolecat> or picket [[Pockmark]]s
2008-05-05 16:49 * Ceiling_Cat glues fur, whiskers, and a tail on Mike_H
2008-05-05 16:50 < Demi> amazon is suggesting i get my mother a computer, TV or video games for mother's day
2008-05-05 16:50 < Ceiling_Cat> You can never go wrong giving her a cat
2008-05-05 16:50 < quanticle> Demi: You should follow Amazon's suggestions and get your mom Wii Fit.
2008-05-05 16:50 < Demi> "Surprise mom with a Wacom tablet, a gift she can enjoy year-round. "
2008-05-05 16:51 < Demi> she's super fit actually
2008-05-05 16:51 < ThePolecat> "Mother needs something today to calm her down/and though she's not really ill/there's this game in which you kill..."
2008-05-05 16:51 < Demi> that's a great song

2008-05-05 16:59 < mattbuck> it's philosophy demi
2008-05-05 17:00 < mattbuck> (the question)
2008-05-05 17:00 < Demi> i wonder what the smallest community size is for supporting a general restaurant delivery service
2008-05-05 17:05 < Mike3> this article is somewhat lacking http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crop_%28agriculture%29
2008-05-05 17:06 < mattbuck> very much so

2008-05-05 17:14 < bbot> Besides, I don't think flickr even allows you to upload NSFW stuff.

2008-05-05 17:16 < Ceiling_Cat> bbot - have you had your cat today?
2008-05-05 17:16 < bbot> apparently
2008-05-05 17:17 < quanticle> Ceiling_Cat: I've had my cat today. It was delicious.
2008-05-05 17:18 < bbot> quanticle: Fried, or grilled?
2008-05-05 17:18 < Ceiling_Cat> quanticle - very good. Cat is an excellent source of essentially vitamins and amino acids. The FDA recommends everyone should consume at least 5000 grams of cat daily
2008-05-05 17:18 < Ceiling_Cat> See also: [[The Great Cat Massacre]]
2008-05-05 17:19 < quanticle> bbot: Grilled. Fried cat has too much cholesterol :)

2008-05-05 17:32 < Kerotan> wow, I noticed a change in chatzilla.
2008-05-05 17:32 < Kerotan> I need a medal or something.
2008-05-05 17:32 * quanticle hurls a barnstar at Kerotan
2008-05-05 17:32 < Kerotan> woot.
2008-05-05 17:35 < quanticle> So what's this chatzilla change you noticed, Kerotan?
2008-05-05 17:35 < Kerotan> The icons on the side.
2008-05-05 17:35 < Demi> this presages pod people
2008-05-05 17:35 < Kerotan> They have a pleasing 3D effect now.
2008-05-05 17:36 < quanticle> Ah. A minor change. Not worthy of mention.
2008-05-05 17:36 * quanticle strips Kerotan of his barnstar
2008-05-05 17:37 < Kerotan> its the one I have ever noticed.

2008-05-05 17:39 < quanticle> Hello Cream.
2008-05-05 17:39 < Cream> hi quanticle <3
2008-05-05 17:41 < Demi> essentially any kind of rating site should follow kittenwar's algorithm
2008-05-05 17:41 < quanticle> Demi: What's that?
2008-05-05 17:42 < Demi> pairwise comparison, rather than a number rating
2008-05-05 17:42 < Demi> kittenwar.com
2008-05-05 17:44 < quanticle> Demi: But not all things come in pairs. Are you advocating some kind of tournament based rating system?
2008-05-05 17:45 < Demi> yes
2008-05-05 17:46 < Demi> it solves the problem of one person's 2 being another person's 8
2008-05-05 17:47 < Shiroi_Neko> you guys aware of the CAMERA incident?
2008-05-05 17:47 < quanticle> Demi: So, essentially, if this was applied to the world as a whole, we'd be back to barter, rather than currency. After all, something that's worth $2 to you may be worth $8 to me.
2008-05-05 17:48 < quanticle> Demi: Needless to say, I find your approach... dubious.
2008-05-05 17:48 < Demi> i don't follow you. i'm only talking about rating websites
2008-05-05 17:49 < Demi> "ratings websites" i suppose
2008-05-05 17:50 < quanticle> Demi: Right, that's what I'm saying. Saying one thing is better or worse than another necessarily limits you to the two things that you're comparing. With a more general rating scale you're better able to compare a wider range of items.
2008-05-05 17:51 < Demi> the problem is that i can't use your rating and my rating in the data set in any meaningful way
2008-05-05 17:51 < quanticle> Demi: And, to address the issue of biased scales, that's what calibration is for. You build up a set of games that have been generally acclaimed, like Half Life, Portal, Crysis (to take FPS as an example), and judge where those games lie on the various scales.
2008-05-05 17:52 < quanticle> Demi: By looking at how we rate the same items, we can normalize our ratings.
2008-05-05 17:52 < quanticle> Yay statistics!
2008-05-05 17:52 < Demi> i disagree, in fact you lose the value of the rating that way. the point is that it's a subjective rating, it's not desirable for us to rate the same thing the same way
2008-05-05 17:53 < Demi> i can see how it would for a recommender, but not really for ranking
2008-05-05 17:54 < quanticle> Demi: Well, if you want to preserve subjectivity, then pairwise comparison is probably too harsh. I mean, if you're saying that one game is "better" than another, you have to justify yourself somehow.
2008-05-05 17:54 < Demi> well, the goal of such websites is usually to produce a ranking of some kind
2008-05-05 17:56 < quanticle> Demi: The entire concept of ranking implies some kind of objectivism. After all, you can't be completely subjective and say that "Game X sucks, game Y is better." You have to justify yourself.
2008-05-05 17:58 < quanticle> Demi: Also, what is the point of ranking if not to recommend?
2008-05-05 17:59 < Gazimoff> What about doing what commonly takes place in sport? A panel of judges rate a performance, the highest and lowest are removed and an average is taken of the rest?
2008-05-05 17:59 < Demi> to see where you, your kitten, your cameltoe, fall
2008-05-05 17:59 < gwern> quanticle: why would it imply objectivisim? some ranking, such as for preference hierarchies, are avowedly subjective
2008-05-05 17:59 * Cream huggles Demi
2008-05-05 17:59 * Cream huggles gwern
2008-05-05 17:59 < Demi> i think you're thinking of gamerating.com or whatever and i'm thinking of hotornot.com, e.g.
2008-05-05 18:02 < quanticle> Demi: Well, I was thinking more along the lines of ratings normalizations used by sites such as Metacritic.

2008-05-05 18:10 < Mike_H> bumm13: oh, which relatives?
2008-05-05 18:10 * Cream fuckles Demi
2008-05-05 18:10 < bumm13> some relatives from California (aunt and uncle)
2008-05-05 18:11 < bumm13> my dad's oldest sister
2008-05-05 18:11 < Demi> on their way to seattle?
2008-05-05 18:11 < Mahlzahn> mew. would an !admin care to fix a "move" done with a copy-paste?
2008-05-05 18:11 < bumm13> my dad was nine years younger than his oldest sister
2008-05-05 18:11 < NotASpy> linky
2008-05-05 18:12 < bumm13> Demi: actually, yes
2008-05-05 18:12 < bumm13> my uncle has a cousin who lives in Renton by Lake Washington
2008-05-05 18:12 < Mahlzahn> NotASpy: [[Kiani (cartoon)]] from [[Kiani]]
2008-05-05 18:12 < Mahlzahn> or just nuke [[Kiani (cartoon)]] and I'll do the rest.
2008-05-05 18:13 < Mahlzahn> per CSD housekeeping
2008-05-05 18:13 < Cream> Mahlzahn, you can do it yourself
2008-05-05 18:13 < Cream> hell
2008-05-05 18:13 < Cream> I'll help
2008-05-05 18:13 < Mahlzahn> thx
2008-05-05 18:14 < Mike_H> I'm watching Mariah's Honey video
2008-05-05 18:14 < Mike_H> she's dancing on a boat with sailors
2008-05-05 18:14 < Mike_H> and she has her old breasts in this one.
2008-05-05 18:14 < Cream> okay
2008-05-05 18:14 < Cream> i'm on it
2008-05-05 18:14 < bumm13> why the hell would Mariah Carey have a boob job?
2008-05-05 18:14 < NotASpy> Kiani (cartoon) is gone.
2008-05-05 18:14 < Cream> what do you want me to do?
2008-05-05 18:14 < Mahlzahn> thx
2008-05-05 18:14 < gurch> HUGGLES :(
2008-05-05 18:14 < Arwen> <bumm13> why the hell would Mariah Carey have a boob job? <-- why not?
2008-05-05 18:15 < Mike_H> She didn't have huge boobs before
2008-05-05 18:15 < Mike_H> but they were fine
2008-05-05 18:15 < Mike_H> you know?
2008-05-05 18:15 < bumm13> they weren't tiny :P
2008-05-05 18:15 < Mike_H> They were probably B's
2008-05-05 18:15 < Mike_H> or maybe a C
2008-05-05 18:15 < bumm13> and having huge boobs seems problematic
2008-05-05 18:15 < Demi> mariah carey seems pretty messed up, actually
2008-05-05 18:15 < bumm13> just a negative attention-getter
2008-05-05 18:15 < bumm13> Demi: she probably is
2008-05-05 18:16 < bumm13> she had some sort of mental breakdown a fear years back
2008-05-05 18:16 < Arwen> cupsizes don't make any sense without accompanying visual examples
2008-05-05 18:16 < Arwen> *hint hint*
2008-05-05 18:16 < Mike_H> Arwen: hold
2008-05-05 18:16 < Demi> my message to the women of the world is, stop messing around with your breasts and just show me what you've got
2008-05-05 18:16 < Mike_H> http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u-xk1oSi5JQ
2008-05-05 18:16 < bumm13> fake boobs really annoy me
2008-05-05 18:16 < Mike_H> The ship dancing scene starts at 4:13
2008-05-05 18:17 < bumm13> they're a poor substitute for the real thing, IMO
2008-05-05 18:17 < Arwen> Mike3, video quality much?
2008-05-05 18:17 < Mike_H> Arwen: I didn't upload it!
2008-05-05 18:17 < Arwen> bumm13, there's not a lot of "real" D cups
2008-05-05 18:17 < Mike_H> Sony BMG did!
2008-05-05 18:17 < bumm13> ick
2008-05-05 18:17 < Arwen> wow, Sony has shit quality :P
2008-05-05 18:17 < Demi> i have little evidence that anyone getting a boob job is trying to attract me. but if they are, i would much rather have smaller natural breasts than large bags of sand.
2008-05-05 18:18 < Mike_H> One of my girlfriends said that Mariah's boobs are at a C now
2008-05-05 18:18 < Mike_H> so she had a B before
2008-05-05 18:18 < bumm13> she did all that for a C?
2008-05-05 18:18 < bumm13> seems pointless
2008-05-05 18:18 < Arwen> Mike3, and what would an "A" be?
2008-05-05 18:18 < Mike_H> Arwen: a board.
2008-05-05 18:18 < bumm13> (after all, it's still surgery)
2008-05-05 18:18 < Ramon> good day everyone
2008-05-05 18:18 < bumm13> hi
2008-05-05 18:18 < Mike_H> bumm13: She wanted to look ho-ish
2008-05-05 18:18 < Mike_H> but not too ho-ish
2008-05-05 18:18 * Ramon Ramon is here
2008-05-05 18:18 < Mike_H> so a C
2008-05-05 18:18 < bumm13> :P
2008-05-05 18:18 < bumm13> heh
2008-05-05 18:18 < bumm13> such a sad state

2008-05-05 18:19 < bumm13> (chicanos)
2008-05-05 18:20 < Ramon> few days ago I said wikipedia is this and that,, critising a bit. what I meant was that Wikipedia content is rather western viewic of world <-----
2008-05-05 18:20 < Demi> our fourth anniversary of moving to oregon
2008-05-05 18:20 < Ramon> when I said judaic
2008-05-05 18:20 < bumm13> Demi: really? cool
2008-05-05 18:20 < Lubaf> Hydrofluoric acid.
2008-05-05 18:20 < Ceiling_Cat> HF is nasty stuff
2008-05-05 18:20 < Ramon> dunno if anyone is reading
2008-05-05 18:20 < Ramon> lol
2008-05-05 18:20 < Ramon> gtg soon
2008-05-05 18:20 < Messedrocker> hydrofluoric acid?
2008-05-05 18:20 < Messedrocker> yes
2008-05-05 18:20 < Ceiling_Cat> see [[Hydrofluoric acid]]
2008-05-05 18:20 < Ceiling_Cat> it's a contact acid
2008-05-05 18:20 < The359> You again, Ramon?
2008-05-05 18:21 < Ceiling_Cat> goes right through skin and etches your bones
2008-05-05 18:21 < bumm13> nasty indeed
2008-05-05 18:21 < Ceiling_Cat> and it's a topic anathestic, so you don't feel the damage it does
2008-05-05 18:21 < Ceiling_Cat> topical*
2008-05-05 18:21 < Ramon> western vievic and a lot of the content is fiction, like about harrpy potter and star trek and such
2008-05-05 18:21 < Demi> it will also hunt down your snitches and give them colombian neckties
2008-05-05 18:21 < Ceiling_Cat> until it's too late and you need a limb amputated
2008-05-05 18:21 < The359> It's not, Ramon
2008-05-05 18:21 < Ramon> the359, yep me
2008-05-05 18:21 < The359> we've already told you that
2008-05-05 18:21 < The359> you keep claiming you "read it somewhere"
2008-05-05 18:21 < The359> but you're mistaken
2008-05-05 18:21 < Ceiling_Cat> Demi - does it stay in your closet until you turn out the lights and then steal your innocence?
2008-05-05 18:22 < Ceiling_Cat> oh wait, that's therapist_cat
2008-05-05 18:22 < Ceiling_Cat> nevermind
2008-05-05 18:22 < Demi> under your bed if you don't have a closet
2008-05-05 18:22 < Ramon> most of the words written in english wikipedia is about entertainment stuff, like harry potter, star trek and such
2008-05-05 18:22 * bumm13 has been watching cheap old sci-fi B-movies lately
2008-05-05 18:22 < The359> But they aren't, Ramon
2008-05-05 18:22 < Ramon> the359, Can I ask you to prove me wrong?
2008-05-05 18:22 < Demi> bumm13 - oh, not that this is a B cheapo, it's good, but we got Fantastic Voyage recently and my son can't get enough of it
2008-05-05 18:22 < bumm13> today's "highlight" - Gamera vs. Monster X (1970)
2008-05-05 18:23 < bumm13> I'm not familiar with that one
2008-05-05 18:23 < The359> You've hardly proved you're right, Ramon
2008-05-05 18:23 < The359> I've pointed out examples where people compare 1 fiction article to 1 real world article
2008-05-05 18:23 < Ramon> the359, I know, again im not here with sources
2008-05-05 18:23 < Demi> that's where raquel welch and whoever else gets shrunken down and treats a man from a submarine injected into him
2008-05-05 18:23 < The359> but those examples have flaws
2008-05-05 18:23 < Ramon> and data
2008-05-05 18:23 < The359> Then you aren't here with facts, Ramon
2008-05-05 18:24 * Lubaf gets out a container of chlorine trifluoride.
2008-05-05 18:24 < Ramon> the359, yes i have no facts with me this time either. but let's face it, a big portion of wikipedia is about comic books, tv series and movies
2008-05-05 18:25 < Ramon> wikipediass content*
2008-05-05 18:25 < Lubaf> Next person to threaten me with hugs gets a batch of chlorine trifluoride in the face.
2008-05-05 18:25 < Ceiling_Cat> I've seen Loooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooonger cats
2008-05-05 18:25 < Lubaf> Anyway.
2008-05-05 18:25 * Looooooooong_Cat kicks Ceiling_Cat's balls
2008-05-05 18:25 < bbot> Ramon: big portion != "majority"
2008-05-05 18:25 < The359> And comic books, TV series, and movies are in the real world
2008-05-05 18:25 < Demi> i don't have any facts or data to support this, but let's face it: idahoans are a lot smarter than everyone else.
2008-05-05 18:25 < Lubaf> How's obscure chemicals that can burn concrete?
2008-05-05 18:25 < The359> So why would we not have articles on them?
2008-05-05 18:26 < bbot> Lubaf: You read In The Pipeline?
2008-05-05 18:26 < Ceiling_Cat> Every time you huggle lubaf, an angel gets his wings
2008-05-05 18:26 < Ramon> the359, yes but that stuff didnt use to be on world telling encyclopedias
2008-05-05 18:26 < The359> we're not a book Encyclopedia
2008-05-05 18:26 < The359> we're allowed to discuss more subjects
2008-05-05 18:26 < bbot> http://pipeline.corante.com/archives/2008/02/26/sand_wont_save_you_this_time.php
2008-05-05 18:27 < Lubaf> bbot: Never heard of it.
2008-05-05 18:27 < bumm13> Demi: reminds me a bit of Inner Space
2008-05-05 18:27 * Ramon I think wikipedia should be divided to a real encyclowikipedia and entertainment wikipedia <--
2008-05-05 18:27 < bbot> Lubaf: It's a organic chemistry blog
2008-05-05 18:27 < Demi> yes, same premise
2008-05-05 18:27 < bbot> an
2008-05-05 18:27 < The359> Entertainment is real world
2008-05-05 18:27 < bumm13> Wizard of Mars was rather cheapo
2008-05-05 18:27 < Demi> gamera is the giant turtle, right?
2008-05-05 18:28 < bumm13> Eegah (1962) took the cake for the worst that I saw
2008-05-05 18:28 < bumm13> yeah
2008-05-05 18:28 < bumm13> it was actually a decent film (for that genre)
2008-05-05 18:28 < bbot> If, however, this coat is melted or scrubbed off, and has no chance to reform, the operator is confronted with the problem of coping with a metal-fluorine fire. For dealing with this situation, I have always recommended a good pair of running shoes.
2008-05-05 18:28 < bumm13> the kids calling out "instructions" to Gamera got old fairly fast though
2008-05-05 18:29 < bumm13> a rather unusual promo for Expo '70 in Japan
2008-05-05 18:29 < bumm13> (since they didn't have video games and Pokémon back then)
2008-05-05 18:29 < Demi> heh
2008-05-05 18:29 < Demi> which was the one with the moth girls?
2008-05-05 18:30 < Demi> was that rodan?
2008-05-05 18:30 < bumm13> that's a Godzilla flick
2008-05-05 18:30 < bumm13> that's one of the better ones
2008-05-05 18:30 < bumm13> very strange
2008-05-05 18:30 < Ramon> the359, of course it's is it's about created "art", but entertainment wikipedia should cover that. entertainment is "real world", that's not an argument. ok maybe everything what the mayas say is not the correct one, but at least that is about culture not about created stories of highly imaginative stuff, acted stuff, written entertainment, really iz not about "real world"
2008-05-05 18:30 < bbot> troll
2008-05-05 18:30 < The359> Yes it is
2008-05-05 18:31 < bumm13> Godzilla vs. Mothra
2008-05-05 18:31 < Demi> oh, mothra, duh
2008-05-05 18:31 < Mike_H> keep bleeding
2008-05-05 18:31 < Mike_H> keep keep bleeding love
2008-05-05 18:31 < Ramon> I hope it is seeked that how harry potter, star threk and such could have their own wikipedia
2008-05-05 18:31 < The359> it wont happen
2008-05-05 18:31 < bumm13> 1964 according to imdb
2008-05-05 18:31 < Mike_H> 1964
2008-05-05 18:31 < Mike_H> the same year the earthquake hit Anchorage.
2008-05-05 18:31 < bumm13> :)
2008-05-05 18:32 < bumm13> yep
2008-05-05 18:32 < Demi> is that the one that caused a tidal wave in hawaii?
2008-05-05 18:32 < Ramon> I look on the issue, maybe see again in.. 10 years.. or 50 years?
2008-05-05 18:32 < Mike_H> that was the last time the entire Earth vibrated
2008-05-05 18:32 < bumm13> Anchorage was totally destroyed pretty much
2008-05-05 18:32 < Mike_H> as a result of an earthquake
2008-05-05 18:32 < bumm13> luckily it wasn't so large then
2008-05-05 18:32 < Demi> (Demi, it's a *tsunami*, idiot)
2008-05-05 18:32 < Ramon> anyway, i just wanted to say it's really not the place for encyclopedia the stuff to be
2008-05-05 18:32 < Mike_H> Demi: I don't think it caused one in Hawaii
2008-05-05 18:32 < Mike_H> but it did in Alaska, British Columbia, and a lot of the West Coast of the US.
2008-05-05 18:32 < bumm13> it did trigger a tsunami
2008-05-05 18:33 < bumm13> yeah
2008-05-05 18:33 < Demi> come to think of it, i think the one i'm thinking of was in the 50s, maybe, and the result of an earthquake off Peru
2008-05-05 18:33 < bumm13> the Anchorage quake was intense
2008-05-05 18:33 < Mike_H> Demi: The strong earthquake in Peru was in 1970.
2008-05-05 18:33 < The359> well your suggestion is taken
2008-05-05 18:34 < bumm13> and in Washington state....2001! :x
2008-05-05 18:34 < The359> But Wikipedia includes everything, Ramon
2008-05-05 18:34 < The359> and it's not being changed
2008-05-05 18:34 < bumm13> (6.8?)
2008-05-05 18:34 < bumm13> California hasn't had a significant earthquake since 1994
2008-05-05 18:34 < Mike_H> May 31, 1970
2008-05-05 18:34 < Mike_H> Peru
2008-05-05 18:34 < Mike_H> 7.9
2008-05-05 18:34 < bumm13> it just keeps burning in S. CA :P
2008-05-05 18:36 < Mike_H> Demi: We don't have an article on the 1970 Peru earthquake
2008-05-05 18:36 < Mike_H> you should write it!
2008-05-05 18:37 < Demi> i wonder why we don't have more earthquakes here
2008-05-05 18:38 < bumm13> I have never heard of a significant quake in Oregon
2008-05-05 18:38 < bumm13> oddly enough
2008-05-05 18:38 < ThePolecat> Why doesn't the lawyer get a drink?
2008-05-05 18:38 < Demi> a volcanically active mountain range runs through it, you would think it wouldn't be unusual
2008-05-05 18:38 < Mike_H> bumm13: "Nisqually" sounds like the name of a Chuck-E-Cheese character
2008-05-05 18:38 < ThePolecat> because he always waits to be admitted to the bar.
2008-05-05 18:38 < bumm13> and who knows how long ago it was when Mt. Mazama (Crater Lake) imploded
2008-05-05 18:39 < bumm13> Mike_H: heh
2008-05-05 18:39 < Demi> "roughly 7000 years" i think
2008-05-05 18:39 * Looooooooong_Cat spanks bumm13
2008-05-05 18:39 < bumm13> I'm not sure what the word means
2008-05-05 18:39 < bumm13> ah
2008-05-05 18:39 < Mike_H> The last notable earthquake in Oregon was in 1873.
2008-05-05 18:39 < Sfan00> Evenin all
2008-05-05 18:39 < Sfan00> ;)
2008-05-05 18:39 < bumm13> geez
2008-05-05 18:39 < Mike_H> 7.3
2008-05-05 18:39 < bumm13> whereabouts?
2008-05-05 18:39 < Mike_H> on the border with California.
2008-05-05 18:39 < bumm13> figures
2008-05-05 18:39 < Ceiling_Cat> lulz
2008-05-05 18:39 < Ceiling_Cat> http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Undelete/Image:Jennifersantiagogenesis.jpg
2008-05-05 18:39 < bumm13> nobody lived there then
2008-05-05 18:39 < Demi> right around here, then
2008-05-05 18:40 < Ceiling_Cat> I think we need to do a better job of community outreach
2008-05-05 18:40 < bumm13> except maybe some Natives
2008-05-05 18:40 < Sfan00> Ceiling_Cat: What do you imagine?
2008-05-05 18:40 < Ceiling_Cat> [[User_talk:Santiagoesq]]
2008-05-05 18:40 * Ceiling_Cat boggles
2008-05-05 18:40 < Ceiling_Cat> Sfan00 - well, if someone had asked him to put a license tag on that photo
2008-05-05 18:40 < bumm13> CA: 1994 , WA: 2001
2008-05-05 18:40 < Ceiling_Cat> we wouldn't have had to delete it...
2008-05-05 18:40 < Demi> i think they were mining silver in jacksonville by then, would have to look it up
2008-05-05 18:40 * Ceiling_Cat counts
2008-05-05 18:40 < bumm13> yeah, probably
2008-05-05 18:40 < Sfan00> Oh
2008-05-05 18:40 < Ceiling_Cat> 15 times
2008-05-05 18:40 < bumm13> most of the Natives were put on reservations by 1855 in the Northwest
2008-05-05 18:41 < Ceiling_Cat> jesus
2008-05-05 18:41 * Ceiling_Cat is going to be writing something about this
2008-05-05 18:41 < Sfan00> Sometimes it's easier to write the Rationale...
2008-05-05 18:41 < bumm13> Demi: and gold in Gold Hill? ;)
2008-05-05 18:41 < Sfan00> than bother trying to clue some people
2008-05-05 18:41 < Ceiling_Cat> this is absurd
2008-05-05 18:41 < Ceiling_Cat> anyway, the guy submitted it to OTRS
2008-05-05 18:41 < Demi> i don't know that there was ever a lot of gold around here, i could be wrong
2008-05-05 18:41 < Ceiling_Cat> so I am going to do it the right way
2008-05-05 18:41 < bumm13> gold isn't so common, anyway
2008-05-05 18:42 < bumm13> I know there's a gold mining operation in northeast Nevada
2008-05-05 18:42 < bumm13> but it costs money to extract that gold
2008-05-05 18:43 < bumm13> no silly Sutter's Mill stuff
2008-05-05 18:43 < ThePolecat> "Enos Throop" is an awesome name
2008-05-05 18:43 < Demi> i'm not a big consumer of gold
2008-05-05 18:43 < bumm13> me neither
2008-05-05 18:44 < Sfan00> Anyone here able to answer a question for me?
2008-05-05 18:44 < Sfan00> When will Wikipedia start to remove the troublemakers, permenantly?
2008-05-05 18:44 < bumm13> the West had three major "strikes" in California, Nevada and Alaska (Yukon, technically)
2008-05-05 18:44 < Demi> you mean like hiring hit men?
2008-05-05 18:44 < bumm13> heh
2008-05-05 18:45 < Sfan00> Demi: Nah , Just 'disconect' them
2008-05-05 18:45 < ThePolecat> "the" troublemakers are a group that is too fuzzy to define
2008-05-05 18:45 < Messedrocker> Let's play it safe and remove everyone from Wikipedia
2008-05-05 18:45 < Demi> we'll do that when we start putting the bad guys in prison
2008-05-05 18:45 < Messedrocker> Except Andrew Lih, because he rules.
2008-05-05 18:45 < bumm13> it's funny how Nevada became a state rather early due to the Comstock Lode and all that
2008-05-05 18:46 < Sfan00> Demi: Hasn't Wikipedia vandlaism already got one person Jail time?
2008-05-05 18:46 < ThePolecat> VANDALISM CAN BE PUNISHED WITH UP TO TWO YEARS IN... oh that was Uncyclopedia.
2008-05-05 18:46 < bumm13> Virginia City - former largest city in the West ;)
2008-05-05 18:46 < ThePolecat> this channel has an obsession with fuzzy threatening law.
2008-05-05 18:46 < Sfan00> I think under Englands laws, you can sue someone for computer vandalism
2008-05-05 18:47 < Kerotan> sfan00 yeah threats on wikipedia got one person arrested recently
2008-05-05 18:47 < bumm13> ThePolecat: I challenge ye to a duel!
2008-05-05 18:47 < Sfan00> Although I'm not aware of any precedents
2008-05-05 18:47 < Messedrocker> Sfan00, Morrow was arrested for harrassment, not vandalism, and I think his arrest was peripheral to Wikipedia
2008-05-05 18:47 < Demi> oh yes, well, you can send someone to jail here for "unauthorized computer use"
2008-05-05 18:47 < SKuhn> is there a german wikipedia channel?
2008-05-05 18:47 * ThePolecat duels
2008-05-05 18:47 < Sfan00> SKhun: try #Wikipedia-de
2008-05-05 18:47 < bumm13> Skuhn - #wikipedia-de
2008-05-05 18:47 * Demi demands satisfaction!
2008-05-05 18:47 * Ceiling_Cat impales ThePolecat with his pole
2008-05-05 18:47 < bumm13> Mark Twain got kicked out of Nevada for a duel that he never actually participated in
2008-05-05 18:47 < ThePolecat> oh... Vlad_Cat!
2008-05-05 18:48 < SKuhn> bumm13: ty - strange I must have mistyped it initally
2008-05-05 18:48 < Ceiling_Cat> :)
2008-05-05 18:48 * Demi isn't touching that one with a 3.2 meter pole
2008-05-05 18:48 * Sfan00 starts to draft the first holy text of the First Terran Portal to the Outer Space...
2008-05-05 18:48 < Sfan00> (aka the Protocols)
2008-05-05 18:48 < ThePolecat> how much is 3.2 meters?
2008-05-05 18:49 < Demi> no one really knows
2008-05-05 18:49 < Demi> that's the problem with the metric system
2008-05-05 18:49 < ThePolecat> I mean, does that work in another measurement type?
2008-05-05 18:49 < Sfan00> About 6ft?
2008-05-05 18:49 < ThePolecat> no
2008-05-05 18:49 < Demi> it's one of those questions that doesn't have an answer, like "why is the sky blue?"
2008-05-05 18:49 < ThePolecat> about 10-11 ft
2008-05-05 18:49 < Demi> ThePolecat - the saying is "touch it with a ten-foot pole"
2008-05-05 18:49 < Sfan00> Speaking of awful jokes...
2008-05-05 18:49 < ThePolecat> I thought it amounted to a round number in some of the odd fortnight-based systems of yours
2008-05-05 18:50 < ThePolecat> Thanks.
2008-05-05 18:50 < Demi> yes, ten feet is equal to one sloth-fortnight
2008-05-05 18:50 < Sfan00> I knew someone was known as Upminster Bridge by his friends, Why? because he was many stops past Barking !! ;) (I Thank you!!)
2008-05-05 18:50 < bbot> Demi: shorter wavelengths of light refract more than longer wavelengths
2008-05-05 18:50 < bbot> is why the sky is blue
2008-05-05 18:50 < Demi> bbot - yes, it was a joke
2008-05-05 18:50 < ThePolecat> oh, tube jokes
2008-05-05 18:50 < Sfan00> bbot: Do keep up at the back
2008-05-05 18:50 < bbot> Oh yeah? Well, your face!
2008-05-05 18:51 * ThePolecat waits for ...and your mum's
2008-05-05 18:51 < Demi> bbot - you're wasted here, you should be trading barbs with oscar wilde in heaven
2008-05-05 18:51 < Sfan00> ThePoleCat : But do you know how to get to 'Ari Jabba from Bow? ;)
2008-05-05 18:51 < ThePolecat> No.
2008-05-05 18:51 * Sfan00 smiles and wonders if anyone else does...
2008-05-05 18:51 < ThePolecat> Harry...
2008-05-05 18:52 < Demi> i ain't got time for jibba jabba
2008-05-05 18:52 < ThePolecat> I don't think Cockney inside jokes have awfully wide currency here.
2008-05-05 18:52 < Sfan00> The Polecat : ;)
2008-05-05 18:53 < ThePolecat> Bow is Galloway Country
2008-05-05 18:53 < Sfan00> 'Ari Jabba from Bow is simple, Guv.... You take the A12 !
2008-05-05 18:54 < ThePolecat> Brb.
2008-05-05 18:54 < Sfan00> If you check the page for [[A12 Road]] you will understand the joke ;)
2008-05-05 18:54 < Demi> in england and southern california, people say "the <route number>"; anywhere else?
2008-05-05 18:55 < Sfan00> Bits of the us use it for Interstates,.... as in I94, and Route 66 and so on
2008-05-05 18:55 < Demi> anywhere besides southern california, though?
2008-05-05 18:56 < Sfan00> http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/A616_road - LOL About the hauntings given the fuss about 616 being the REAL number of something ;)
2008-05-05 18:56 < quanticle> Sfan00: The Protocols of the Elders of Zion?
2008-05-05 18:56 < Sfan00> quanticle: Nah
2008-05-05 18:56 < Sfan00> The Protocols I was reffering to were the Protocols of the First Terran Portal to the Outer Space...
2008-05-05 18:57 < Sfan00> Which are not comprehensible literally to people that exist outside the Celestial Exchange
2008-05-05 18:58 < quanticle> Does anyone else here read a webcomic called Crimson Dark? http://www.davidcsimon.com/crimsondark/index.php?view=comic&strip_id=1
2008-05-05 18:59 < Sfan00> and of course the Celestial Exchange has various Switching levels within it...
2008-05-05 19:00 < Sfan00> of course the reallly high swtiching levels are Outer Spacers that have reached Binary Compatibility, as opposed to people that just read the texts... ;)
2008-05-05 19:00 < quanticle> Sfan00: Sounds like you're referring to a book series...
2008-05-05 19:00 < Sfan00> qaunticle: Are you a dirsuptive phreaker of something?
2008-05-05 19:00 < quanticle> Sfan00: Unfortunately, I haven't read enough space opera to know what you're referring to.
2008-05-05 19:00 < quanticle> Sfan00: Nope.
2008-05-05 19:01 < Sfan00> quanticle: Well the First Terran Portal has Phreakers, but it doesn't like disruptive Phreakers....
2008-05-05 19:01 < Sfan00> and only phreakers would refer to the Protocols as a 'book series'.... ;)
2008-05-05 19:02 < CrazyChemGuy> The on hold period for my GAN, aspirin, is about to expire, and I've yet to find someone who is any good with prose and capable of making a copyedit that doesn't sound as technical as the journal articles cited. Oh, woe is me...
2008-05-05 19:02 < Sfan00> because they've not modfied thier interfaces for compatibility..
2008-05-05 19:03 * Ceiling_Cat lulz at today's xkcd
2008-05-05 19:03 < boks> http://www.encyclopediadramatica.com/Wikipedia
2008-05-05 19:03 < boks> It are fact
2008-05-05 19:03 < Sfan00> Whilst some may see space opera in FTP-OS , it's not a drama... It's a way of Interfacing with the cosmos to achive the goal of Univeral Binary Compatibility within the Celestial Exchange
