19:33:35 <Halcyon> Mew
19:35:40 Nick: Halcyon is now known as Halcyon1
19:36:09 Nick: Halcyon1 is now known as Halcyon_
19:36:20 <Halcyon_> Meh, can't be effed logging in
19:47:13 <Halcyon_> Hey Ampera
19:54:57 <Ampera> Hi Halcyon_
19:56:36 <Halcyon_> What's doing?
19:56:45 <Ampera> my throat is sore
19:56:49 <Halcyon_> Aw no
19:56:51 <Halcyon_> You getting sick?
19:56:58 <Ampera> no
19:57:02 <Ampera> my throat is sore
19:57:07 <Halcyon_> Because?
19:58:59 <Halcyon_> I other news, I'm installing OS X on my new old iMac
19:59:04 <Halcyon_> *In
19:59:12 <Ampera> because it's sore, there doesn't have to be a reason for it
19:59:28 <Halcyon_> Well generally it's because you're injured or ill
19:59:35 <Ampera> not really
19:59:43 <Ampera> most of my sore throats have been random and came as soon as they went
19:59:58 * Halcyon_ hugs Ampera
20:00:08 <Ampera> could be dry, hoarse, or just a very mild thing
20:00:18 <Ampera> something I drank or ate, or nothing at all
20:00:39 <Halcyon_> College today?
20:02:05 <Ampera> yes
20:04:47 <Halcyon_> Sooooooo yeh
20:05:08 <Halcyon_> I'm just waiting for dinner to be ready and the disk to be zeroed on the Mac
20:06:33 <steve30> hi Halcyon_
20:06:44 <Halcyon_> Hey Steve :-D
20:08:48 <Ampera> Why are you zeroing the disk?
20:08:48 <steve30> I went to the gym yesterday :)
20:14:19 <Halcyon_> Because I have no idea what was on it from the previous owner(s)
20:14:33 <Halcyon_> How was it Steve?
20:14:41 <Ampera> Halcyon_, what would that matter?
20:15:03 <Halcyon_> Well, if I ever sell it and the disk had something illegal on it, I don't want to be blamed
20:15:36 <steve30> which iMac model?
20:15:39 <Halcyon_> I zero every second hand disk that enters this house, so I can be certain what's on them
20:15:41 <Ampera> what like a stolen copy of OS/X?
20:15:42 <Ampera> :P
20:16:09 <Halcyon_> Well, child exploitation material etc... who fucking knows
20:16:28 <steve30> Gym was good. I feel better for having been. Also there were a few cute guys there :).
20:16:41 <Halcyon_> Also, copying copyrighted material isn't "stealing" in Australia
20:16:49 <Halcyon_> And mere possession isn't unlawful
20:17:07 <Ampera> but how did you get the copy of OS/X
20:17:18 <Halcyon_> Borrowed a disc from work
20:17:28 <Halcyon_> You know you can freely download it from Apple?
20:17:46 <Halcyon_> Steve: It's this one: https://everymac.com/systems/apple/imac/specs/imac-core-2-duo-2.4-24-inch-aluminum-specs.html
20:17:54 <Ampera> actually you're fine there as they provide it under the condition it's used on a mac
20:18:02 <steve30> Ampera, I notice halcyon kept quiet after I asked about my pregnancy.
20:18:26 <Ampera> because he doesn't want me to call the police for when he tries to abuse your kittens
20:18:27 <Halcyon_> Wha?
20:18:33 <EEVBlog> New EEVBlog Tweet: The No Shit Sherlock award of the day goes to fraudulent dating profiles. It's been a staple of the industry for more than 20 years, only just now being sued for it? LOL https://t.co/VVn1rqOVBy
20:18:41 <Ampera> stay the fuck away from his kittens, Halcyon_, I know you want to hurt them
20:18:44 <Ampera> I won't let you I swear to fuck
20:18:53 <Halcyon_> Stupid cats
20:18:54 <Halcyon_> :P
20:19:21 <steve30> <steve30> We've been wondering in the other channel... Are you responsible for getting me pregnant?
20:19:32 <Halcyon_> Meanwhile in New York, apparently it's unlawful to call someone an "illegal alien" or assert that someone is?
20:19:33 <Halcyon_> WTF?
20:19:38 <K> hello
20:19:46 <Halcyon_> I honestly didn't see that message.
20:19:47 <Ampera> That's NYC and constitutionally unenforceable
20:19:56 <Halcyon_> Yeh it seems that way
20:19:59 <Halcyon_> Sounds like bullshit
20:20:17 <Ampera> and probably something that no cop would ever waste their time on, as NYC is basically the home of the casual jackass
20:20:18 <Halcyon_> How can states or cities just create laws like that?
20:20:31 <Ampera> technically any state can create any law it wants
20:20:45 <Ampera> but when it comes to enforcing it in a court, then the law can be rendered null and void
20:20:56 <Ampera> it might even just be a PR stunt and they don't actually intend to force it
20:21:15 <Halcyon_> Then why bother?
20:21:40 <Halcyon_> Well generally, federal law trumps state law. I would suggest a court would just throw it out as invalid.
20:22:37 <Ampera> this is higher than federal law
20:22:39 <Ampera> this is constitutional law
20:23:16 <Ampera> you have constitutional > federal > state > county > incorporated territory
20:23:21 <Halcyon_> *nod*
20:23:52 <steve30> Halcyon_, I ended up on some pregnancy mailing list, which keeps sending me emails about my so-called pregnancy.
20:24:08 <Halcyon_> Oh right
20:24:10 <Halcyon_> Weird
20:24:21 <DogWomble> Is that the new penis enlargement?
20:24:26 <Halcyon_> Hey Tim
20:24:29 <DogWomble> hey :)
20:25:03 <Halcyon_> I suspect that Steve has had more jizz in him than he has deposited, I could see how he might be preggas :P
20:25:17 <Halcyon_> Love you Steve ;-)
20:25:43 <Ampera> You're all disgustingly flawed human beings and I am grossly disappointed in the lot of you .
20:25:52 <steve30> The theory is that it *might* be halcyon's, but I also think he wouldn't want to risk ending up with kittens.
20:25:56 <Halcyon_> Oh please, you're the American one
20:26:11 <Ampera> and the only one who isn't a purile fag
20:26:18 <DogWomble> I have no problem admitting to being flawed, we are all flawed in some way
20:26:42 <Halcyon_> I agree with the "fag" part, the rest of what you said is untrue
20:26:51 <K> oh deary me
20:26:58 <Halcyon_> Also, this is cool: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z-q8ehzHeQQ
20:27:16 <steve30> Saw that yesterday :D
20:27:44 <Ampera> anyways I gotta fuck off
20:27:46 <Ampera> bbl
20:30:33 <Halcyon_> Fuck off Ampera
20:30:34 <Halcyon_> :P
20:31:11 <DogWomble> that monitor looks cool
20:31:27 <Halcyon_> Yeh, I didn't know they existed
20:31:37 * steve30 want
20:32:14 <Halcyon_> Seems like an overly complex design
20:34:24 <steve30> I'm going to go and do some work in the garage
20:34:52 <Halcyon_> What you doing to the bike?
20:35:05 <DogWomble> that reminds me, i need to lube my chain :P
20:35:11 <Halcyon_> Fags
20:35:12 <Halcyon_> :P
20:35:21 <steve30> installing new parts
20:50:44 Quit: ThunderSqueak ([email protected]) Quit: Leaving
20:54:27 <Ampera> I think my walking's become a bit faster, don't you think, Halcyon_?
20:55:34 <Halcyon_> I'd say so
20:55:55 <Halcyon_> That's fitness for ya
20:56:34 <Ampera> Halcyon_, no that's public transportation for ya
20:56:39 <Halcyon_> Hah
20:56:44 <Halcyon_> Feeling lazy today?
20:56:50 <K> riding with plebs, eh
20:56:54 <Ampera> no feeling like I don't want to get piddled on
20:57:09 <Ampera> also my legs are still setting from NYC, and I don't want to disturb them too bad
20:57:18 <Ampera> since that can make me less fit than if I were to exercise them
21:00:27 * Halcyon_ is sleepy
21:00:53 <Ampera> my school has a strange sign (display thing) reading "bedazzle a bra for breast awareness"
21:01:04 <Ampera> and all I could think of was, oh gee neat, I wasn't aware breasts were a thing until now
21:02:16 <Halcyon_> You could you put sparkles and things on yours?
21:03:04 <Ampera> that'll be a no
21:03:08 <Ampera> you fag
21:06:10 <Halcyon_> :P
21:32:55 * Ampera throws chunky stew at Halcyon_
21:33:08 <Halcyon_> Nom
21:33:11 <Halcyon_> Meaty
21:33:17 <Ampera> that's what she said
21:33:23 * Ampera throws some at T3sl4
21:33:40 <K> how does one throw chunky stew?
21:33:57 <Ampera> by taking it and lobbing it
21:34:07 <K> with your hand?
21:34:15 <Halcyon_> Or a spoon?
21:34:15 <Ampera> with anything
21:34:20 * Ampera spoons Halcyon_
21:34:24 <Halcyon_> Naww
21:34:28 <Halcyon_> Only if you're little spoon
21:34:42 * Ampera calls the police
21:34:50 <Halcyon_> Moshi moshi?>
21:35:03 * Ampera calls the police more
21:35:37 <Ampera> I am tired
21:35:38 <Halcyon_> Speaking of Police, I don't want to go to work tomorrow
21:35:43 <Halcyon_> I just want one sleep-in day
21:35:55 <Ampera> you say that every day
21:35:58 <Halcyon_> I know
21:36:01 <Halcyon_> I need a holiday
21:36:05 <Ampera> you're a lazy cunt
21:36:15 <Halcyon_> I'm not, I'm feeling burnt out
21:36:39 <Ampera> my great grandma always said
21:36:41 <Ampera> eat shit
21:36:46 <Ampera> (in french)
21:36:50 <Halcyon_> Mmm nutty
21:37:06 * Ampera nuts all over Halcyon_
21:37:18 <Halcyon_> Ew, stringy
