I just posted that I was writing a new wordpress plugin and widget... and got over 600 unique visitors 02:33 < aestetix> RangerZ: 14.04 03:09 < aestetix> ok I think that fixed it 03:09 < aestetix> god wtf is wrong with ubuntu 03:16 <@RangerZ> aestetix: you want a chronological list? alaphbetical? Topological? or perhaps a word buble? also descending or ascending ? 03:19 < aestetix> I think I have fixed the major issues I was having 03:19 < aestetix> But wow. 03:20 < aestetix> I cannot in good faith recommend this distro to non-technical users 03:23 < aestetix> RangerZ: case in point, in order to fix my wifi, I had to remove a kernel module and reload it with a new setting. 03:23 < aestetix> Someone who barely can use bash is not going to be able to do that. 05:08 < aestetix> interesting 05:08 < aestetix> https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Devil%27s_advocate#Origin 05:08 < PigBot> Title: Devil's advocate - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia (at en.wikipedia.org) http://tinyurl.com/gl6mbdk 05:08 < aestetix> Turns out the term Devil's advocate originated with the Catholic Church 05:32 -!- LastChild [~Android@DHCP-129-59-122-53.n1.vanderbilt.edu] has quit [Ping timeout: 244 seconds] 07:06 -!- jaake [~h4ckm3@129.59.122.17] has joined #se2600 09:02 -!- rattle [041c8581@tor/regular/rattle] has joined #se2600 09:02 -!- mode/#se2600 [+o rattle] by ChanServ 09:19 -!- klixa [~klixa@unaffiliated/klixa] has joined #se2600 09:19 -!- mode/#se2600 [+o klixa] by ChanServ 10:29 <@Evilpig> asshole doctors. I want to claw my fucking arm off now 10:48 <@oddball> aestetix: makes sense, since I believe that's where the idea of the Devil originated. 11:02 < aestetix> oddball: I'm actually not sure where the devil comes from, now that I think about it. 11:02 <@oddball> It's not the Bible. 11:02 < aestetix> I wonder if it was monotheised the same way Zeus turned into God 11:04 <@oddball> I thought it was more Egyptian than Roman. 11:04 < aestetix> Well, both. 11:04 < aestetix> The Romans took a lot of things from the egyptians. 11:04 <@oddball> right 11:05 < aestetix> For example, one intresting theory I saw was that Moses's name comes from Ramses 11:05 < aestetix> because "ramses" -> rmses -> mses -> moses 11:05 <@oddball> And the Jews had a rather srious connection to Egyption culture around the time that they went monotheistic. 11:05 < aestetix> and no, I did not mean to deify RMS :p 11:06 < aestetix> well yes 11:06 < aestetix> the whole wandering the desert thing 11:06 <@oddball> yep 11:06 < aestetix> One of the reasons I'm so tired of these "new atheists" is that they don't know those basic stories. 11:07 < aestetix> I am totally down with you not believing in anything, but at least fucking learn what it is you are disavowing. 11:07 <@oddball> Are those the evangelical atheists? 11:07 < aestetix> Yes. The Hitchens/Dawkins crowd. 11:07 < aestetix> Dawkins in particular has a rather facile understand of theology. 11:07 <@oddball> 'cause I want to punch those people in the face just as much as I want to punch the evangelical Christians, etc. 11:08 < aestetix> yep 11:11 < aestetix> oddball: the bay area is full of them. 11:11 <@oddball> Not surprised. 11:11 < aestetix> I dunno if they were abused as kids or something, but they have an axe to grind. 11:11 < aestetix> It's fucking annoying. 11:11 <@oddball> They've just turned atheism into a religion... including the hatred of other religions. 11:11 < aestetix> And I don't mean by priests, because I am starting to really suspect the numbers re: catholic priest abuse are loaded. 11:12 < aestetix> Since I know a lot of people who were raised Catholic (many wound up in the bay), and none of them were abused. 11:12 < aestetix> So I wonder where this hatred comes from. 11:15 <@oddball> The thing I have issue with the Catholic Priest molestation thing is that it's well documented that the church was complicit in covering it up. They paid hush money, moved offenders around to keep them from getting arrested, and even were behind smuggling a few out of the country. 11:16 <@oddball> If it was any other organization, the org would be declared a conspirator. 11:16 < aestetix> oddball: let me put it this way 11:17 < aestetix> I know a lot of women who have been abused. I have never met *anyone* abused by a catholic priest. 11:17 <@oddball> understood. 11:17 < aestetix> I mean, sure, maybe they just don't tell me, but then why are the women so open? 11:17 < aestetix> I'm also curious why there are no reports of abuse from other churches. Surely it's not just a catholic thing, if it's a thing? 11:18 < aestetix> It's just, when you look at the narrative with a scientific analysis, it falls apart. 11:18 <@oddball> Partly because the cases have typically been boys. 1. folks tend not to talk about it when they're children, and 2. men are basically told that it makes them not men. 11:19 < aestetix> But if I say anything, I get called a catholic apologist. When I'm really not, I am just interested in fact/truth. 11:19 <@oddball> Oh, it very much happens at other churches. 11:19 < aestetix> Then why doesn't that make the news? 11:19 <@oddball> It has around here. 11:20 < aestetix> Interesting. 11:20 < aestetix> I never hear jokes about Lutheran priests, etc. 11:20 <@oddball> I think a large part of why it doesn't make bigger news is that they're not part of a powerful international org that has done its best to cover it up. 11:21 < aestetix> heh 11:21 < aestetix> Covering things up never works. Just ask Nixon. 11:21 <@oddball> I think the lack of jokes might have something to do with other orgs allowing their clergy to have sexual partners. 11:21 < aestetix> Some do, certainly. 11:21 < aestetix> But not all. 11:22 <@oddball> And then some things just get into society's memory and just won't let go. 11:23 <@oddball> How many people make fun of or even really remember the brakes not fucking working on Toyotas a couple years ago? 11:24 <@oddball> Now, on the other hand, you have the Ford Pinto that everyone remembers as "the car that explodes" even though Ford won that case and it was found that the Pinto wasn't any more at risk than any other compact car on the road at that time? 11:40 -!- rattle [041c8581@tor/regular/rattle] has quit [Ping timeout: 252 seconds] 12:03 -!- Catonic [~catonic@adsl-98-83-44-212.bhm.bellsouth.net] has quit [Ping timeout: 240 seconds] 12:06 -!- rattle [041c8581@tor/regular/rattle] has joined #se2600 12:06 -!- mode/#se2600 [+o rattle] by ChanServ 14:08 -!- Catonic [~catonic@adsl-98-83-44-212.bhm.bellsouth.net] has joined #se2600 14:08 -!- mode/#se2600 [+o Catonic] by ChanServ 15:20 -!- jaake [~h4ckm3@129.59.122.17] has quit [Ping timeout: 248 seconds] 15:34 <@rattle> DC is shutting down the entire metro system for 24 hours at midnight.
