People were fucking horrible to each other. 00:21 < dasunt> I'm just wondering about stories such as dressing up as a prostitute to seduce one's father-in-law to get pregnant by him. 00:21 <@Dagmar> King James jsut got completely lost in the stories that were otehrwise used to bore people into behaving like decent people 00:21 <@Dagmar> dasunt: Perhaps you are unaware of the concept of "Florida Man", which exists to this day 00:23 < dasunt> This is in the context of "history of the monarch's ancestors and, btw, the ancestors of our prophecized messiah." 00:26 < dasunt> Weirdly, archeological evidence suggests that the writers made up a bunch of shit (a unified state under a single monarch, with a monothestic religion), but apparently left a ton of unflattering stuff in. 00:31 <@Dagmar> They were worried about getting their stories straight 00:31 <@Dagmar> The content wasn't something they were concerning themselsves with 00:32 <@Dagmar> What concerned them was getting their heads lopped off if what they brought back differed from what the other scholars brought back 00:49 < K`Tetch> Dagmar - nah, he just wanted to piss off the church. It's always hillarious seeing a hardcore biblebasher clutchnig a KJV 00:49 < K`Tetch> amazing how few people know about all the male lovers James had as a young teenager, and how they were murdering each other to get in his 14yo bed 01:12 < dasunt> Weird that so many fundamentalists like KJV, considering how flawed that translation is. 02:02 <@Dagmar> Since they're fundamentalists, it's not a matter of "liking" the KJV. They really have no concept of any other "Bible" being valid 02:04 < dasunt> Crazy is what crazy does. 03:33 -!- strages [uid11297@gateway/web/irccloud.com/x-gjntjuagxrrcqcbv] has quit [Quit: Connection closed for inactivity] 05:55 -!- K4k [elw@unaffiliated/k4k] has quit [Read error: Connection reset by peer] 07:00 < aestetix> so dasunt what you're saying is that the bible was the first incest porn 07:00 < aestetix> so maybe pornhub owes the bible royalties 07:27 <@Corydon76> Probably not the first. So much of the Bible is plagiarized from elsewhere. 07:29 <@Corydon76> Most of the stories about Jesus, for example, can be found in earlier sources in competing religions. 09:50 <@oddball> Oh, incest stories go back further than the Bible. The Greek Pantheon were all brothers and sisters, after all. 09:54 <@Corydon76> and fathers and daughters and mothers and sons. 11:29 < Synx_hm> morning bitches 11:46 -!- Imgur[m] [nebimgurma@gateway/shell/matrix.org/x-wfsgmrmksmdbowmt] has quit [Quit: killed] 12:30 -!- Imgur[m] [nebimgurma@gateway/shell/matrix.org/x-yyclpqkxmutndjmk] has joined #se2600 15:18 <@dc0de> sup ho 16:43 < Synx_hm> spent all morning solder super fine smd pads fml 16:43 < Synx_hm> my hands are not made for this fine detail :( which is quite depressing as i get older 16:46 <@Dagmar> Getchu some loupe glasses on Amazon 16:55 < Synx_hm> ohh good idea 16:55 < Synx_hm> though the vision is only half the issue 16:55 < Synx_hm> my hands shake 16:56 < xray> Same here.

The speed was technically slower than my cable is here at the new house, but it seemed faster at least most of the time because it was symmetric and guaranteed bandwidth. 23:49 <@Dagmar> K'Tetch: Actually I was thinking about the wee tiny Asians 23:50 <@Dagmar> Not that they're suppsoed to be hand-soldering SMT either, but they at least look less like they're trying to do things with giant sausage fingers --- Log closed Tue Dec 24 00:00:53 2019
