10:25:53 <ServalSpots> DHess_US: You do know the current administration has pretty significantly increased drone strikes, right? :P
10:32:55 <ServalSpots> A good account of strikes resulting in at least one death can be found here: https://www.thebureauinvestigates.com/projects/drone-war
10:40:54 <DHess_US> ServalSpots, only distantly. That just makes the link more relevant.

11:23:33 <steve30> hi
11:24:02 <ServalSpots> hi steve30

11:32:37 <Halcyon> Gee Dave's busy this morning
11:32:39 <steve30> i was really tired yesterday
11:32:47 <steve30> I feel better now I've slept though
11:34:37 <Halcyon> I did the same
11:34:41 <Halcyon> I got up at 1100 this morning
11:34:54 <Halcyon> Just made a coffee :)
11:35:15 <Halcyon> Aw Steve, did you see Clive Swift died?
11:37:28 <steve30> Nope, but then I've no idea who that is
11:37:33 <EEVBlog> New EEVBlog Tweet: I see that Instragram is still completely retarded, you still can't post from a desktop browser.
11:37:36 <Halcyon> He played Richard Bucket in KUA
11:39:33 <EEVBlog> New EEVBlog Tweet: Test post, nothing to see here https://t.co/UTVJCcCSXf
11:40:04 <steve30> OK, still no idea who/what that is
11:40:09 <Halcyon> Keeping Up Appearances
11:40:13 <Halcyon> You never watched it?
11:40:24 * T3sl4 meows at steve30
11:40:38 <steve30> nope
11:41:01 <rust_collector> Metal Health'll cure your mad
11:41:42 <Halcyon> What kind of Brit are you?
11:41:43 <Halcyon> :P
11:41:44 <T3sl4> metal health'll drive you mad!
11:42:06 <rust_collector> oh yes
11:44:42 <rust_collector> I have no idea why, but that song is stuck in my brain today
11:45:35 <Halcyon> Mmmmbop
11:46:45 <T3sl4> RATTs, you have a song stuck in your head?
11:47:42 <rust_collector> good try, Halcyon, but I am immune to that
11:47:49 <Halcyon> *grin*
11:48:54 <T3sl4> yesterday would've been karaoke night, if it weren't cold as bitches balls
11:49:30 <Halcyon> Anyone come across this...
11:49:49 <T3sl4> so i don't mind random song references ;)
11:49:53 <rust_collector> karate night
11:49:55 <Halcyon> I'm trying to delete a folder from my NAS via SMB on Linux. It seems to delete fine, but then you refresh and its still there
11:50:08 <T3sl4> i hate it when that happens
11:50:12 <T3sl4> try renaming the folder?
11:50:29 <Halcyon> It renames fine, but I still can't delete it
11:50:54 <Halcyon> Actually I might try forcing the permissions recursively...
11:51:19 <Halcyon> Nope
11:51:22 <Halcyon> Grr
11:52:12 <rust_collector> can you ssh into the thing?
11:52:21 <Halcyon> Yes, but I was being lazy :P
11:52:21 <T3sl4> power cycle it
11:54:34 * steve30 cuddles Halcyon to warm up
11:54:37 <Halcyon> There we go
11:54:41 <Halcyon> rm via SSH worked
11:54:48 <Halcyon> Aww hi Steve :)
11:54:56 <Halcyon> It's rainy and meh here today, about 23C outside
11:55:14 <rust_collector> we have weather, I think

11:55:59 <steve30> Its about 0 here
11:56:06 <rust_collector> I don't use windows, so I would have to go outside to figure it out
11:58:03 <rust_collector> -2c here. we have had around -10 for a while now, and it is just nice. makes sense that it is the weekend, and the temp goes up enough to make the snow blah
12:01:09 <Halcyon> We've had temperatures over 35 most of this week and last week
12:01:16 <Halcyon> I'm glad it's cooler and wet now
12:01:28 <Halcyon> I've been trying to water my new lawn and keep it moist but stuggling
12:01:40 * steve30 pinches a few degrees off Halcyon
12:06:49 <Halcyon> So when's your date Steve?
12:06:52 <Halcyon> Next week?

12:14:32 <Halcyon> Don't you just want to roll around with them
12:15:00 <rust_collector> mmmm, taco
12:17:50 <steve30> monday
12:20:31 <Halcyon> YAY! Monday!
12:27:16 <steve30> Only trouble is he has dogs :/
12:28:00 <Halcyon> Dogs are awesome
12:29:34 <rust_collector> be happy he does not have.... uuhm.... goats?
12:29:54 <Halcyon> Heheh goats are funny
12:29:56 * steve30 meows
12:29:58 <Halcyon> As are chickens
12:30:20 <rust_collector> not when they eat your couch
12:30:32 <rust_collector> table
12:30:35 <rust_collector> lamp
12:30:40 <rust_collector> door
12:30:44 <Halcyon> Goats don't belong inside
12:30:48 <rust_collector> curtains
12:30:58 <rust_collector> no, neither does dogs
12:31:14 <Halcyon> Dogs are no worse than children
12:31:19 <Halcyon> In fact, they are probably better
12:31:31 <rust_collector> no, I would probably go for a dog
12:31:43 <steve30> cats ftw
12:31:51 <rust_collector> cats taste funny
12:31:52 <Halcyon> Cats are moody and bitchy
12:33:21 <rust_collector> and hide dead birds and mice in weird place
12:33:22 <rust_collector> s
12:33:39 <rust_collector> yeah, cats are cool
12:35:13 <steve30> I just put on a thermal shirt and a hat and I'm still cold
12:35:20 <Halcyon> And pee in random places. At leasts dogs when they are young pee where it's obvious
12:35:42 * Halcyon is wearing board shorts and a T-shirt :)
12:36:27 <rust_collector> when your pet cow pees all over your cough
12:36:36 <rust_collector> SPLASH!
12:36:45 <Halcyon> Hahaha
12:37:18 <rust_collector> ooof. I can see those little decorative pillows floating acroff the floor in a yellow river
12:37:24 <rust_collector> across
12:38:02 <rust_collector> Ok, my typing is broken. just translate it ok?
12:38:14 <Halcyon> :)
12:39:33 <rust_collector> I was at an induction bending company today. that was pretty interesting
12:40:09 <rust_collector> pipes, tubing, h beams, i beams... anything

12:48:02 <Halcyon> Stupid cat
12:48:14 <Halcyon> You know it just wants to eat your face off
12:48:27 <steve30> he looks cosy :)
12:57:49 * steve30 makes coffee
12:58:52 <Halcyon> I'm trying to decide what to make for dinner
12:59:43 <DogWomble> You should make food for dinner, food makes the best of all the dinners
12:59:55 <Halcyon> True :) Food was on my shortlist
13:00:19 <Halcyon> I'm thinking something meaty/stewy
13:00:27 <Halcyon> Maybe with mashed potato
13:02:51 <DogWomble> Potato is a very versatile vegetable
13:04:35 <Halcyon> Or I could do beef wellingtons
13:04:48 <rust_collector> stew is good.
13:05:12 <Halcyon> Yeh I'm thinking stew, it's cold and wet. Good weather for it
13:06:30 <Halcyon> Or Tikka masala... mmmm
13:07:06 <rust_collector> chicken and spice stew
13:07:25 <Halcyon> https://www.taste.com.au/recipes/brie-thyme-bacon-dauphinoise-potato/445af1f6-06da-46c6-b9c6-14ddeb79a39e?r=recipes/winterrecipes&c=98d446c4-cf38-4ad0-a19a-3f077a677fe5/Winter%20recipes
13:07:30 <Halcyon> Damn those look like good potatos
13:08:02 <Halcyon> I might just do that with some steamed veg
13:08:48 <rust_collector> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RRGpCAYGkEI
13:09:26 <Halcyon> Hahah what the hell is this
13:09:35 <rust_collector> food
13:11:05 <Halcyon> It does look good though
13:11:31 <rust_collector> boris has a few recipes, and they actually work, and are usually simple
13:14:08 <DogWomble> my idea of a recipe iis 'how long does this need in the microwave?'
13:15:13 <rust_collector> microwaves are for heating ball bearings. do you eat ball bearings?
13:17:03 <DogWomble> do cashews count?
13:17:26 <rust_collector> how long do you nuke those?
13:19:44 <DogWomble> those take 'collect them in aisle 5' long

18:46:42 <Halcyon> I'm making that with some steamed veg
18:47:06 <Ampera> I might be able to stomach that
18:47:10 <Ampera> what's a rasher though?
18:47:17 <Halcyon> A slice of bacon
18:47:30 <Ampera> how big are your slices?
18:47:53 <Halcyon> The ones I have in the fridge are about 25-30cm long x about 7-10cm wide
18:47:55 <Ampera> I could eat 3 slices of our fried bacon in 10 seconds
18:48:03 <Ampera> holy fucking shit
18:48:09 <gremlinz> noms
18:48:21 <bigbadwolv> mmmmm bacon
18:48:27 <Halcyon> I think you guys have "streak bacon" there which is the thin part normally
18:48:27 <Ampera> anyways, machine the bot is on has been updated, so you got to see the bot go sproing
18:48:43 <Ampera> That's pretty much all we have, I know there's back bacon and streak bacon
18:48:49 <Ampera> but we pretty much don't have anything but streak bacon
18:49:23 <Halcyon> The one I buy is basically the streaky bacon with the "shortcut" bit still attached
18:49:27 <gremlinz> i have this t-shirt https://i.ebayimg.com/images/g/gysAAOSw44BYMi2T/s-l640.jpg
18:49:52 <Ampera> Barium Cobalt Nitrogen?
18:50:14 <Ampera> anyways, how do Halcyon
18:50:14 <Halcyon> So kind of like this: https://3yis471nsv3u3cfv9924fumi-wpengine.netdna-ssl.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/02/Smoked-bacon-440x293.jpg
18:50:16 <Halcyon> But longer
18:50:23 <Ampera> that's back bacon
18:50:37 <Halcyon> I'm doing well, going to go see Book of Mormon at the theatre for a second time tomorrow
18:50:39 <Halcyon> Can't wait
18:50:47 <gremlinz> yup
18:51:38 <Ampera> Halcyon, this is pretty much exactly what we have in the land of the free: https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/e/e8/RawBacon.JPG/1280px-RawBacon.JPG
18:51:56 <Halcyon> Pretty much
18:52:16 <Ampera> sometimes it's a bit thinner, but I love this stuff
18:52:19 <Halcyon> I like the meaty bit ("back" bit if you like) still attached
18:52:24 <Ampera> I'll eat it just like you see it in the picture.
18:52:25 <Halcyon> It's all porky goodness
18:52:31 <Ampera> what do you mean still attached?
18:52:35 <Ampera> it's a completely different cut of meat
18:52:46 <Halcyon> *shrug* no idea, I'm not a butcher
18:52:58 <Ampera> our bacon is from pork bellies, yours is from the loin
18:53:00 <Halcyon> The ones I get are really long, they have to fold them in half in the packaging
18:53:04 <Halcyon> Mmmm loin
18:53:12 <Halcyon> I do like pork belly though
18:53:13 <Ampera> literally the back of the pig
18:53:19 <Ampera> well that's what ours is
18:53:21 <gremlinz> i dont care where the bacon comes from ill eat it all
18:53:24 <Halcyon> Especially with crispy skin
18:53:29 <gremlinz> ALL OF IT
18:53:43 <Ampera> I love bacon uncooked, it's fuggin delicious
18:53:49 <Halcyon> This kind: http://www.freedomfarms.co.nz/wp-content/uploads/2016/06/pork-belly.jpg
18:54:11 <Ampera> I've had that, but that's our bacon, just cut differently and cured
18:54:12 <Ampera> sometimes smoked
18:54:23 <Halcyon> Pigs are such awesome animals

18:54:34 <Ampera> I made my curry smoked chicken, the recipe I gave you
18:54:52 <Ampera> I have tons of it, but I wish I had a way to cook it without waking people up
18:55:17 <Halcyon> Could you not just prep it and throw it in the slow cooker for 6-8 hours in the afternoon/early evening
18:55:21 <Halcyon> Then it's ready when you want it
18:55:57 <Ampera> what?
18:56:04 <Halcyon> Which part?
18:56:07 <Ampera> it's already cooked, I should have said heat up
18:56:13 <Halcyon> Oh right
18:56:16 <Halcyon> *nod*
18:56:22 <Ampera> and it's not a curry, it's smoked chicken flavoured like curry
18:56:26 <Halcyon> Get a little billy can and a fire going :P
18:56:32 <Ampera> https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/310478241989263371/541140484001759232/IMG_20190201_113157.jpg
18:56:33 <Halcyon> Or use a butane torch
18:56:47 <Ampera> I've sometimes thought about just taking the entire fucking microwave downstairs for a second, or even buying my own
18:56:47 <DogWomble> you mean kill it with fire?
18:56:59 <Ampera> the second one I might actually do if I had a place I could put the damn thing.
18:57:04 <Halcyon> DogWomble: Wrap it in foil first
18:57:07 <Halcyon> Then torch it
18:59:42 <Ampera> 4 hours until people wake up and I can cook chicken >:(
18:59:55 <Ampera> maybe I'll do VR during the gap
