00:14 < dasunt> Sometimes I don't understand humans.
00:14 < dasunt> I should, I'm human, but I don't.
00:15 < dasunt> I was talking to my dad today, and he was telling me how some guy tipped over my brother's truck.
00:15 < dasunt> He was trying to use the side-dumb to dump a load downhill.
00:16 < dasunt> (For those who don't understand this, truck = semi tractor trailer, I think lorry is britspeak for it), and a side dump is a trailer that dump a load of dirt or other material to the side.
00:16 < dasunt> Anyways, obviously this is a bad idea.
00:17 < dasunt> So *after* he tipped over the truck once, and they got the truck back upright, the damned guy TRIED TO DO IT AGAIN.
00:41 < ^020d> Hmmm....  the load fell out, they went and got ANOTHER one?
00:44 < ^020d> Otherwise he'd have to be all... "Let's upright the truck... making sure to retain as much of the load as we can...."
00:54 < dasunt> ^020d: Well, a side dump tends to dump it's load.  It just doesn't intend to tip over the truck at the same time.
01:04 < ^020d> That... so how's he try AGAIN?  XD
01:08 < dasunt> The righted the truck and got another load.
01:09 < dasunt> And he's like "lets do this again!"
01:50 <@Dagmar> That's fairly impressive
01:50 <@Dagmar> Have they given him an MRI yet?
01:52 <@Dagmar> It would be worth checking to see if there's any brain activity
02:01 < dasunt> LOL.
02:02 < dasunt> You can't fix stupid.
02:02 < dasunt> I asked my dad if he asked him what he was thinking, but he didn't.  The explanation, I'm sure, would be interesting.
02:07 < ^020d> "I thought if I lowered it SLOWER this time...."
02:08 < dasunt> If you move slowly enough, gravity doesn't notice.
02:08 < ^020d> I have a Ph.d in Moron Physics.  🧐
02:15 < dasunt> His vote counts the same as yours.  Just think about that.
02:21 < dasunt> Okay, a few beers into the evening, I have determined there's no Honda Valks for sale on Craigslist for a good price.
02:22 < dasunt> And I'm not drunk enough to buy any at the prices listed.
02:23 < dasunt> Not really sure what I'd do with a 1500cc motorcycle anyways.  Get poor mpg?
02:24 < ^020d> Become an organ donor and save a life
02:24 < dasunt> I got the 400cc motorcycle for that.
02:25 < dasunt> Which, I determined today, does 75 mph.  Not, in my admittedly would-prefer-to-live opinion, a comfortable 75 mph, but it does 75 mph.
02:26 < dasunt> Probabyl would top out around 83+ mph, if I wasn't actively seeking my own death.
02:29 < dasunt> Er, was actively seeking my own death.
02:30 < ^020d> Had a pal tell me a story of his... back in his younger partying days...
02:31 < ^020d> I'd never do any of this of course but... it goes like...
02:31 < ^020d> He's at this party drinking hard and blazing it up when the cops show up.
02:31 < dasunt> This story has promise..
02:31 < ^020d> So everyone's trying to get out as quick as they can, he stumbles to his truck and drives away
02:31 < ^020d> On the way home he passes this idiot parked on the freeway.
02:32 < ^020d> Soon after, there's another one.
02:32 < ^020d> How weird!
02:32 < ^020d> He then looks at his analog speedometer...  and it's completely pegging at 100 something.
02:33 < ^020d> The End.  Don't drive drunk kids.
02:33 < dasunt> I was expecting more...
02:33 < dasunt> :(
02:33 < ^020d> He had to live to tell me it.
02:33 <@Dagmar> So... they weren't parked?
02:33 < ^020d> Naw he's going like 60 mph faster than them
02:33 < dasunt> Reminds me of the story when a bunch of old truckers started talking about taking amphetamines while trucking.
02:34 < dasunt> Turns out, to put it in physics terms, velocity is great, direction tends to suffer.
02:34 < ^020d> Heh... wrong coast?
02:34 < dasunt> Not that bad.  Just wrong state.  The one two states east, not west.
02:35 < ^020d> Also... trunks can't drive on water apparently
02:35 < dasunt> They can.  Temperature has to be right.
02:35 <@Dagmar> Yeah they do it in Alaska all the time
02:36 < dasunt> My dad has, or at least had, a SUV he hauled out of a lake one year.  Turns out that when an entire family dies in one, it goes cheap for salvage.
02:36 < dasunt> I think he used a semi to haul it out.
02:36 < ^020d> Ok got one for ya... just heard it today...

02:36 <@Dagmar> Yeah, ghosts are one thing, but ghost of kids whining "Are we there yet?  I have to go to the bath-room!" are something no one wants
02:37 < dasunt> It ran pretty well for being submerged.  I'll admit the creepy factor was high.
02:37 < dasunt> Speaking of which, he has a Voyageur XII that I'm interested in.  Previous owner decided to commit suicide.
02:37 < dasunt> Not sure if I should buy a death motorcycle.
02:37 < ^020d> On the plus side, you could turn into the Wraith.
02:38 < dasunt> It's nice, and he's only 5'8", so he finds it a PITA.  But he overpaid for it.

02:39 < dasunt> Okay, that movie may be added to movie night rotation.
02:40 < dasunt> I may have to veto the host of movie night.
02:43 < dasunt> I do kind of want suicide bike though.
02:44 < dasunt> I'll look at it next weekend when I'm up, assuming I don't spend too much time cutting out my exhaust system on the Saturn at my dad's garage.
02:45 < dasunt> Huh, they have a 1800cc version of the Valkyrie.  Just in case you think a 1.5L engine in a motorcycle is just a tad too wimpy.
04:28 <@shadow404> dasunt: I use to ride a 1200cc

05:04 < aestetix> your move, SJWs
06:14 <@Dolemite> mr0ning, be0tches and h0ez!
06:17 <@Dolemite> Ha!   I love that SQLite code of conduct.
06:54 < aestetix> So do I
06:55 < aestetix> it may be the best one I have seen
06:55 < aestetix> and I mean
06:55 < aestetix> one of the biggest issues with codes of conduct is how well they work
06:55 < aestetix> and I'd say that one has a pretty good track record
07:00 <@Dolemite> I may have to adopt the same thing for openDCIM
07:01 <@Dolemite> We've had plenty of people bitch about the sarcastic comments that Pig makes when people ask stupid questions that have already been answered ad nauseum.
07:04 < aestetix> I'm sad. HOPE had the best CoC IMHO.
07:04 < aestetix> But I'm not sure that's true anymore.
07:11 <@Dolemite> Holy shit.   Did you see the report about one of the Kashoggi killers dressing up in his clothes, afterwards, and walking around Istanbul to try to create false sightings?
07:54 <@Mirage> the could have done without all the god bullshit
07:54 <@_NSAKEY> Mirage: I'm thinking there needs to be a Roman law version.
07:57 <@shadow404> Someone shoot write a don't be a dickhead common sense law CoC
07:57 < aestetix> shadow404: that's what we all used to have
07:57 < aestetix> until the SJWs came along and demanded there be rules
07:57 <@shadow404> kind of pn has in its rules
08:12 <@Corydon76> You can make any rules you like, but it all comes down to the strictness of enforcement.
08:13 <@Corydon76> Reality:  no matter how enforcement is done, there will always be someone who disagrees.
08:15 < aestetix> rea
08:15 < aestetix> oops
08:20 <@shadow404> Corydon76: Rule enforcement like not throwing chairs off hotel roofs??? (ware)
08:20 <@Corydon76> shadow404: any comment I make about that is going to get me in trouble.
08:21 <@shadow404> go on
08:21 <@Corydon76> So... noooo comment.
08:22 < aestetix> Ok. Let's tell a story. There is a boy named pear who throws a bear off the roof. What does Morydon have to say about the situation?
08:22 < aestetix> Remember, this is a fictional account
08:22 <@shadow404> any relation to real life individuals or events is purely coincidental
08:34 <@Corydon76> Jesus.  Gilead just upped their patient assistance program to $7,200 a year.
08:37 <@Dagmar> Ware wasn't a matter of strictness of enforcement
08:37 <@Dagmar> Ware was a matter of the universe making bigger idiots
08:39 <@shadow404> Dagmar: and then trump came to power to reinforce that point
08:40 < aestetix> is ware stll around?
08:40 <@Dagmar> Somewhere or other
08:41 <@Dagmar> At least, I've not heard he auto-darwinated by being Ware
08:41 < aestetix> you mean he had a kid?
08:41 < aestetix> oh I misread that
08:41 <@Dagmar> He's exactly the sort of guy you'd expect to expire from having wrapped himself entirely in dry-cleaning bags or something
08:41 <@shadow404> lawl
08:42 <@shadow404> aestetix: lets hope he never reproduces
08:42 <@Dagmar> _Normally_ a reasonably sharp character, but regularly interspersed with incidents of doing things so dumb you'd literally jawdrop
08:43 < aestetix> oh wow phreaknic was this past weekend
08:43 < aestetix> how was it?
08:43 <@Dagmar> Tiring
08:43 < aestetix> why tiring
08:44 <@Dagmar> Although I did hear an interesting story about certain people getting caught getting busy in the back of a Smart car
08:44 <@shadow404> nice, i need to attend a pn soon
08:44 < aestetix> there is a back seat in a smart car?
08:44 <@shadow404> not for the smart car sex, just because i miss pn
08:44 <@Dagmar> I mentioned it to my boss and he, despite being a serious "good ol' boy" also completely ignored the "gay dudes" aspect and focused on the "you can even get two people in the back of a Smart car?" aspect
08:44 <@Dagmar> As did I
08:45 <@Dagmar> I think the guy who mentioned it expected more people would be surprised by the revelation of gayness
08:45 <@Corydon76> I drove a Smart car for several years.  You'd have to be really short to do that.
08:46 <@Dagmar> Apparently that's not always true
08:46 <@Corydon76> I don't see how else
08:46 <@Corydon76> Unless they're making bigger Smart cars these days
08:46 <@shadow404> oh man, i'd look a fool in a smart car
08:46 <@Dagmar> This is why I think that it was in a Smart car is far more notable than someone being "outed"
08:46 <@shadow404> whats the max height for a g-wiz?
08:47 <@Corydon76> shadow404: you'd be surprised.  German-made cars are built for people who are tall.
08:47 <@Corydon76> American cars, sedan or SUV all seem to be built for people who are only 5 foot tall
08:47 <@shadow404> my mazda 3 hatchback fits me well
08:47 <@shadow404> not a true sedan, but close
08:48 <@Corydon76> shadow404: you know how big Penn Gillette is, right?  He drove a Mini for years.
08:49 <@Corydon76> I think he's taller than you are.
08:49 <@shadow404> NOPE
08:49 <@shadow404> Corydon76:  one sec
08:49 < aestetix> I cannot hear russian women talk without badly wanting them to say "babuska"
08:50 <@shadow404> can you get pigbot to give you a tinyurl in pm?
08:50 <@shadow404> Corydon76: as you can see where are about the same height, im slightly taller if i stood up in that pic
08:51 <@Mirage> When Skydog was looking into getting a Mini he said that he was suprised by the fact that he had more head/leg room in it than he did in his Xtera.
08:52 <@Corydon76> Mirage: yep.  Every German-made car has been extremely roomy.  The American-made cars are always cramped for me, and I'm only 6'0
08:52 <@shadow404> Penn and I: https://tinyurl.com/yakawczl

08:53 <@shadow404> there is some disturbing similarities to him and skydog....
08:53 < aestetix> wierd al yakawzl?
08:54 < aestetix> for a second there I thoght shadow404 got really old
08:54 <@shadow404> i just saw car karaoke with wierd al
08:54 <@Corydon76> shadow404 did get really old.  That's what happens when you migrate to Germany and don't come to hacker cons for several years.
08:55 <@shadow404> Corydon76: thats aestetix
08:55 <@shadow404> ill be migrating to mexico and then thailand when i get the chance
08:55 <@shadow404> at least thats the plan
08:56 <@shadow404> and that pic was like 3-4 yrs ago at that
08:56 <@Corydon76> shadow404: I know.  But from his perspective, we all got old, because he hasn't seen us for a decade.
08:56 < aestetix> Corydon76: viellecht könntest du ein Beruf als Versorgungsunternehmenmitarbeiter bekommen
08:57 < aestetix> Ich denke dass es ein paar offenen gibt
08:57 <@Corydon76> aestetix: I'd rather get a job as a dusty old Unix wizard, buried in the basement and forgotten
08:57 < aestetix> haha
08:58  * Corydon76 notes that he works alone in a basement as a Unix wizard.
08:58 < aestetix> oder als Abwallunternehmenmitarbeiter?
08:58 < aestetix> Vielleicht passt das besser
09:00 <@Corydon76> I miss the old days when spammers were trying to sell me something, instead of poor attempts to blackmail me into sending them money.
09:02 <@opticron> mine are all still credit card debt, car warranty, and health care
09:04 <@Corydon76> A good portion of mine are "I hacked <throwaway-email-address>, send me bitcoin"
09:11 < aestetix> oh one of those
09:11 < aestetix> I've gotten 2 or 3 of those
09:11 < aestetix> using an old password from a hacked database dump
09:14 <@Corydon76> Yes, a password that has long since been changed.
09:15 <@_NSAKEY> that's what password re-use gets you
09:15 <@Corydon76> But a few of them didn't even bother doing that, either.  They just assert that they hacked an email (for which there is no password, because it's an alias).
09:15 <@_NSAKEY> There was some comedy over the weekend, involving one of those ransomware porn scare warnings on the business center computer at the hotel.
09:33 <@Mirage> Corydon76: I feel left out, I haven't gotten any of those emails
09:34 <@Corydon76> Mirage: you don't regularly peruse your spam folder to find emails that get erroneously classified?  That's the only reason I see them.
09:34 <@Corydon76> I occasionally read them out of morbid curiosity
09:36 <@Mirage> I scan my quarantine for valid stuff from, people I know.  For some reason emails from my dad get misclassified often....probably because most of them are just emails of whatever he got last time he went hunting/fishing
09:36 <@Mirage> just pictures..no text..or very minimal text
09:40 <@Mirage> I think there must just be something about ppl named "Ware" and doing stupid shit.

10:06 <@Mirage> So, what'd everyone think about last night's Doctor Who?
10:08 <@shadow404> that we can easily replace actors portraying the doctor and should do so asap in this case
10:08 <@Evilpig> better than the first two, pretty ham fisted
10:08 <@Mirage> Personally I thought the writing was shit as far as the antagonist was concerned.   There was nothing really explaining what he was doing there, why he was doing it, etc.   The few interactions between the doctor and him were pretty weak./
10:09 <@Evilpig> I really wanted more on that as well.  i'm guessing he will make a return in later episodes
10:15 <@Dolemite> Haven't seen this week's Dr. Who, yet.   Watched this week's Titans, last night, instead.
10:16 < aestetix> and now RMS steps into the forway

10:29 <@rhia> my biggest complaint with this Doctor is the writing seems to be changed from writing for The Doctor to writing for OMG a FEMALE oh, who also happens to be a timelord
10:29 <@rhia> the whole concept of having a woman Doctor seems to have been reduced to a stereotype - bah
10:30 <@Evilpig> missy wasn't treated that way, this is just a failure on their part
10:30 <@rhia> yep
10:31 <@rhia> hoping they get over that and start giving her some true Doctor roles
10:32 <@Mirage> I'm also a little fuzzy on why Rosa Parks would have been so important to someone in the UK or the UK in general.   The write is presumably someone in/from the UK, so I guess there is some notoriety, but I don't really get it.
10:32 <@Mirage> s/write/writer/
10:33 <@Evilpig> as a general human rights event it is definitely significant
10:33 <@rhia> remember, they did a Kennedy assasination plot, too
10:37 <@rhia> kinda like US shows seem to think England is Churchill or Queen Victoria or Robin Hood
