55:09 <Nothing\> hola
55:15 <Nothing\> question
55:42 <Ampera> Yes, it is gay to like men.
55:45 <rust_collector> what time is it in west benagal?
55:46 <Ampera> Next question
55:54 <Nothing\> is it indeed worth downloading battle.net for the new remake of diablo 2? or should I just forego all of that in lieu of getting the Switch version and potentially missing out on PC exclusive content later on
56:01 <rust_collector> no
56:03 <Nothing\> and superior graphics and perfomance
56:09 <Ampera> playing blizzard games is never worth it
56:13 <rust_collector> skip all of that
56:17 <Ampera> just go outside
56:19 <Ampera> try camping
56:21 <Ampera> or hiking
56:23 <Ampera> fish, swim
56:25 <Ampera> make friends
56:29 <Ampera> hug a tree
56:32 <Nothing\> why?
56:42 <Ampera> because I fucking told you to
56:46 <Nothing\> touche
56:55 <Nothing\> Ampera, i got my second jab yesterday
57:11 <Ampera> I got mine months ago
57:20 <Nothing\> i really shouldn't have got it in the same arm i tore my rotator cuff in, but i figure if i didn't i'd have no side to sleep on
57:25 <Nothing\> and i'm a total side sleeper
57:31 <Nothing\> Ampera, lol the first one was easy to get
57:56 <Nothing\> but the second one, every damn place i called was like "dur we don't have them, and we don't know when we're getting any"
58:12 <Nothing\> finally after 2 weeks of calling multiple pharmacies a day i found one that had 2 doses left
58:31 <Nothing\> i was about ready to write my MP
58:57 <Nothing\> and you know a cannuck/limey's pissed when they write their MP
59:49 <Nothing\> man the oil in this cannabis concentrate tastes weird
59:57 <Nothing\> it tastes like popcorn, but not buttery popcorn
00:05 <Nothing\> it just tastes like plain, unflavoured popcorn
00:10 <Ampera> I've never written a letter to a politician and I've never known a single person in real life who has ever done so
00:25 <Nothing\> Ampera, that's cuz your generation has no follow-through
00:29 <Nothing\> hell, mine barely has any
00:39 <Ampera> can you stop talking about generations like everyone my age thinks exactly the same?
00:40 <Nothing\> and it just gets weaker with each successive generation
00:44 <Ampera> it's irritating baseless generalization
01:01 <Nothing\> Ampera, my apologies. I don't intend to lump you in with them
01:10 <Ampera> I'm about to hurt someone
01:12 <Ampera> probably you
01:20 <Nothing\> i thought it would go without saying you're not one them but i can understand taking offense at it
01:35 <Ampera> I didn't say I was offended, I said I was irritated
01:37 * Nothing\ hugs Ampera 
01:49 <Nothing\> Ampera, doesn't irritation stem from disgust
02:00 <Nothing\> or vice vesa?
02:05 <Ampera> irritation stems from my ass
02:06 <Nothing\> i forget how the emotion wheel goes
02:28 <Ampera> I hate identity politics
02:35 <Nothing\> speaking of politics
02:47 <Nothing\> what's this shit i'm hearing about a whistleblower and facebook now
02:50 <Ampera> it's one of the most destructive mentalities that is bringing the world ever further from peace
02:59 <Ampera> facebook went down for hours yesterday
03:01 <Nothing\> i tried reading the news stories but they were so vague i couldn't get any useful information from them
03:06 <Nothing\> no no
03:18 <Ampera> facebook also had a whistleblower that publicly said things that everyone already knew were true
03:24 <Nothing\> a whistleblower went in front of congress today and made facebook's shady practices public
03:29 <Nothing\> the ones the public doesn't know about
03:38 <Nothing\> and now they're pushing for legislation to keep it in check
03:42 <Ampera> that facebook is designed specifically to foster hatred and anger, because they profit off people being too mad to shut up
03:51 <Ampera> I knew about it
03:54 <Nothing\> but all the articles really say is facebook "puts profits ahead of user security"
04:00 <Nothing\> so i have clue wtf it's on about
04:01 <Ampera> I know about it because that is how mass media works today
04:16 <Nothing\> Ampera, that too they were talking about how much it hurts youths
04:19 <Ampera> Because, funnily enough, almost every single resource that is reporting on it does the exact same thing
04:21 <Nothing\> psychologically
04:30 <Nothing\> yeah they've been saying this for years
04:34 <Ampera> That's just traditional won't someone think of the children nonsense
04:42 <Nothing\> i guess i was so confused about it because i thought it was common sense
05:10 <Ampera> I don't trust the take of any news outlet on this case since an honest overview is mutually incompatible with their business model
05:13 <Nothing\> lol my brother's ex had facebook accounts for their daughters by the time they were 10
05:19 <Nothing\> actually no
05:20 <Nothing\> 6
05:41 <Nothing\> i remember now, when they were living with me when they were 6 their mother actually got them fucking facebook accounts
05:43 <Ampera> The sucky part is the media are trying to spin a hate crime and bad juju perspective on this
05:49 <Nothing\> wtf does a 6 year old need facebook for?
06:05 <Ampera> I've seen nothing but the news going on about how facebook is not stemming hate speech and misinformation
06:13 <Nothing\> teenagers i can get. They're the most social of all human demographics
06:15 <Ampera> which is entirely not what is going on, but is a sly way to word what actually is the problem
06:16 <Nothing\> western teens
06:38 <Ampera> I have never used facebook, and I am entirely fine with that being written on my tombstone
06:54 <Nothing\> i use it to keep in touch with family i otherwise would never see or talk to
06:56 <Nothing\> that's it
07:09 <Ampera> I've been able to do that since before Facebook existed
07:10 <Nothing\> and to maybe keep in touch with a hand full of old friends
07:17 <Ampera> through these marvelous inventions known as the mail and telephones
07:24 <Nothing\> well i'm not you
07:30 <Ampera> why not
07:38 <Nothing\> because god has a heart
07:41 <Ampera> I am god
07:43 <Ampera> and no I don't
07:45 <Nothing\> says you
07:55 <Ampera> well if I'm god, then I am correct
07:57 <Nothing\> you know, i genuinely thought i was god for years
08:12 <Ampera> good thing you snapped out of that delusion and have come to realize that I am actually god
08:27 <Nothing\> i held a belief called solipsism, which in the variety i believed it states the only thing we can know that exists for certain is our conscious mind
08:42 <Ampera> I do not believe I exist.
08:45 <Nothing\> and i took it a step further and posited that the world is a physical manifestation of my conscious mind
08:56 <Ampera> I am certain that I do not, and that I am not presently experiencing any feelings or emotions
09:11 <Ampera> of course it is
09:11 <Nothing\> Ampera, you've gotta ask yourself though, is that truly what you believe? or is it just wishful thinking?
09:18 <Ampera> I don't think anything
09:24 <Ampera> this is all shitposting
09:28 <Ampera> I don't have beliefs
10:00 <Ampera> My mind is too busy dealing with my actual, practical real life problems to be worried about the finer points of nothing.
10:20 <Ampera> and I don't see any openings in that schedule coming for a few hundred million years.
10:56 <Nothing\> i was thinking, if god is omnipresent
11:02 <Nothing\> that means he pervades all of space, right
11:09 <Ampera> yeah I do
11:14 <Nothing\> and if space and time are one and the same
11:23 <Nothing\> that means god must also occupy all points of time
11:30 <Ampera> of course, I created space and time
11:35 <Nothing\> therefor time is meaningless to god
11:42 <Ampera> time has meaning to me
11:54 <Ampera> you can see all of a blank sheet of paper if you have a mirror
11:56 <Nothing\> lol dude
11:59 <Ampera> does that mean the paper is meaningless to you?
12:00 <Nothing\> i only just took the drugs
12:03 <Nothing\> give it some time
12:59 <Ampera> Nothing\, https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/315713347368648705/895005200446787604/20211005_133405.jpg
13:07 <Nothing\> so i was reading up on how they surgically repair a torn rotator cuff. It's pretty ingenious the way they do it. Not to mention a ton less invasive than i imagined
13:30 <Nothing\> i always imagined they'd have to open your shoulder up and stitch your tendon back together
13:48 <Nothing\> but they do it arthroscopically, just with 2 or 3 little 1in incisions
14:09 <Nothing\> and they just screw a couple of these special screws with a sort of eyelet in it into your shoulder
14:32 <Nothing\> then loop a stitch through it and stitch the muscle down onto the bone like the tendon would naturally do
14:49 <Nothing\> and then somehow that causes the tear to hear
14:56 <Nothing\> anyway, clicking pic
15:08 <Nothing\> oooh that's a bright bastard
15:16 <Nothing\> i can see your camera trying to compensate
15:37 <Nothing\> Ampera, i'm a sucker for catalytic mantle type light generators like this
15:52 <Ampera> normal people call them lanterns
16:15 <Nothing\> yeah but not all that rely on catalysts are lanterns
16:32 <Ampera> it's not really a catalyst I don't think
16:36 <Ampera> it's just simple incandescence
16:56 <Nothing\> nah, incandescence requires extremely high temperatures
17:03 <Ampera> but that's exactly how it works
17:15 <Nothing\> if you do it in open atmosphere rather than under vacuum as in a light bulb, the filament just burns right up
17:21 <Ampera> the yttrium salts in the mantle form a ceramic when burned
17:37 <Nothing\> but then you'd have to replace the yttrium salts
17:40 <Ampera> https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gas_mantle
17:41 <EEVBot> [Title] - Gas mantle - Wikipedia
17:45 <Nothing\> actually i guess the mantles wear out over time, don't they?
17:47 <Ampera> it says incandescence right here
17:58 <Nothing\> where if they were catalytic, they would work indefinitely
18:06 <Nothing\> since none of a catalyst is used in a reaction
18:27 <Nothing\> Ampera, but it reminds me of these old hand warmers i saw on big clive
18:34 <Ampera> catalyst isn't even present in the article
18:53 <Nothing\> okay you've established this already
19:00 <Nothing\> and i've relented
19:30 <Nothing\> but anyways there are these hand warmers, which ran on alcohol catalyzed by platinum
19:39 <Nothing\> methanol i believe
20:09 <Nothing\> it's a cool reaction because all you have to do is put a warm platinum mesh in some methanol vapors and it glows just like a mantle
20:12 <Nothing\> hence my confusion
20:29 <Nothing\> oh Ampera
20:40 <Nothing\> have you guys upgraded the server at all recently?
20:45 <Ampera> what server
20:48 <Nothing\> this one
20:55 <Ampera> how should I know, I don't run austnet
21:02 <Nothing\> my and another user noticed significantly lower latency lately than is usual
21:13 <Nothing\> i thought you were an admit
21:15 <Nothing\> admin
21:17 <Ampera> nope
21:40 <Nothing\> ah my bad
21:52 <Nothing\> but yeah, latency's down to like 0.2s
22:07 <Nothing\> 0.2-0.5
22:15 <Nothing\> where it used to be 1-2 seconds
22:34 <Nothing\> maybe not 2, closer to 1 second but still
22:42 <Nothing\> it's a noticeable improvement
23:35 <Ampera> I don't have an easy means to measure server ping handy

25:20 <steve30> hi
25:28 * Ampera hugs steve30 
25:33 <Nothing\> huh
25:35 * Ampera gives steve30 some tea flavored coffee
25:49 <Nothing\> diablo II ressurected is $5 cheaper on battle.net than on the switch
25:55 <Nothing\> guess it was worth it
26:12 <Nothing\> also heya steve
26:18 * Nothing\ power hugs steve30 
26:45 * steve30 fires the tea flavouring back at Ampera 
27:01 * steve30 purrs at Nothing\ 
27:05 <Nothing\> i bet orange peel would go good in tea
27:12 <Nothing\> or orange oil
27:28 <Nothing\> not the bitter white part, but the actual peel. Like a bit of zest.
28:02 <steve30> my "new" thinkpad came today
28:09 <Nothing\> nice
28:14 <Nothing\> is it everything you hoped?
28:26 <Nothing\> my mum and i almost bought a glider rocker on amazing
28:30 <steve30> yup, nice machine, and the battery seems decent too
28:40 <Nothing\> but i stopped us at the last minute citing my rule to never make impulse purchases
28:58 <Nothing\> and to alwasy give something 2 weeks consideration before buying if it's over $100
30:24 <Nothing\> dang it, i forgot to get my mum to take me out to get an iced cap before she went to be
30:27 <Nothing\> d
30:52 <Nothing\> never in a million years would i expect that i'd get addicted to caffeine again. But damned if it hasn't happened.
32:34 <Nothing\> recommended memory for diablo II resurrected is 16gb
32:36 <Nothing\> jeez
32:47 <Nothing\> gtx 1060
33:17 <Nothing\> yeah i definitely think the pc version was better to get just based on that. I doubt the switch could compete with a computer of those specs.
34:56 <Nothing\> alright, it's been bought
35:03 <Nothing\> sorry Ampera, i'm a sheeple
44:39 <Nothing\> ugh
44:48 <Nothing\> 3 day old mock redbull does NOT taste good
45:14 <Nothing\> and here i drank a moldy can of ice tea this morning
