@Wipqozn yeah the solution is clear, they need to fix it on their end so it flows through to your side
 
and there others that are "The internet is a fad. The print paper will never die."
 
@Wipqozn LOLOLOL
the paper might not die, but the readers will
 
Long fad guys
 
@Wipqozn Ah, the Trump generation
 
@Wipqozn I got into an argument with the local paper canvasser about their insistence on pay walls for online articles.
 
5:01 PM
Newspapers have tried to kill several other mediums and failed each time
 
I think the internet got disqualified as a fad once it hit 2 decades old
 
They failed to kill radio
 
@Frank tbh i don't like paywalls but i don't have a better business model for papers
 
I assume they tried to kill the internet but were so massively unsuccessful nobody talks about it
 
good journalism is expensive to do properly
 
5:01 PM
@Frank gl
 
@GodEmperorDune Unfortunately, the value of information has dropped like a rock. Printed paper just can't keep up.
 
@Frank eventually we will need to rectify that

FoodSET Food Science Engineering and Technology

Proposed Q&A site for food Professionals, all Agrifood chain.

Currently in definition.

1
networking

Proposed Q&A site for network equivalent of super user. From theoretical protocol questions to local data links like i2c through questions about popular web applications.

Currently in definition.

 
or no one will put up the money to do decent investigations on things and we will just get memes and clickbait all day
 
@NewlyOpenedProposalsforEntertainment "all Agrifood chain" eh?
 
5:04 PM
> How to export in ᴘᴅꜰ in Microsoft word ?
that doesn't have anything to do with networking?
oh wait
they mean superuser for webapps
 
@GodEmperorDune So, Webapps?
 
@murgatroid99 is there a webapps.se?
 
@murgatroid99 yep, looks like a dupe then
 
5:07 PM
@badp This is fascinating
 
Email sent. Told them the same thing I always do, with data sent along .The stories may have mostly the same text, but the GUID is different, and so is the byline.
 
@GodEmperorDune And I think the first part of the description is just Network Engineering
 
@murgatroid99 yeah that's what threw me
the example questions are all webapps but the description and name sound like network engineering
actually the name sounds like a workplace.se activity
 
Close as duplicate of programmers.se
problem solved
 
holy crap
They replied with "Thanks for the detail, we'll pass it along"
 
5:09 PM
lol
hwat
 
I'm so happy. I thinkt hey finally get it. It took 5 months, but they finally got it.
 
@twobugs but but but the police needs to be able to not do any investigative work, just hit a key on their super secret super backdoor super internet super presidential super bypass and throw criminals in jail just like that
 
superjail, presumably
 
THis is like christmas
 
@Wipqozn thanks. that will be 5k rep
 
5:10 PM
@GodEmperorDune Your mother
BACK TO WROK
that was intentionally btw
 
*wok
 
@Wipqozn urmom went back to wrok
 
I've decided to always type wrok so you never know when I make a typo
 
(ftfy)
 
Although if I actually type work then you'll know it's atypo
Damn it
 
5:10 PM
you can't fool Marie
 
@Wipqozn your typos are lame, you'll never reach @gnomephone levels of stardom
 
@badp Yeah I certainly don't think they should have backdoors and malware inserted into other applications with legitimate uses
 
@badp But can he fool @badp?
 
i like wiponz complet esisregard for english and person al standards
2
 
On a scale from 1 to 7 how much did that hurt to type
 
5:12 PM
@Unionhawk but can he fool @firebass?
 
@Unionhawk so long as you can't fool Marie, it doesn't matter whether the individuals are fooled
@StrixVaria Wiponz is by far the worst ponzi scheme
 
@Unionhawk B probably.

Q: Can I supply sectors with strategic resources?

S.WesselsI had a couple of Betharian power plants on planets within my empire. I recently reached my core planets limit so I created a new sector, the Betharian resource is no longer being supplied to those power plants and now I'm loosing energy due to the lack of them being powered. Can I give my Betha...

 
@GnomeSlice I have not played Fract yet, no.
 
@Unionhawk jopi kenow i it is acvuylaluy nto vueru paingefuf to nto ahave any wisyandarcs sawhatixs er
 
5:16 PM
@badp There's an art to making it awful to read but still comprehensible.
 
@StrixVaria but that would be missing the point of not having any standards
 
But there's an ART. to making it awful to read and incomprehensible but maybe it's words
 
@Wipqozn's isn't art, it's just @Wipqozn. Mine was merely an imitation of @Wipqozn's innate @Wipqoznness.
 
if you don't have any standards, you don't care if people actually can get there
 
@StrixVaria @badp is a world class ARTist though
 
5:17 PM
I did retouch the first half of the sentence
 
this is paint taken to its next logical form:
 
but then I ran out of standards and left the rest genuine as is
 
You can't be a true ARTer without standards
 
typing beyond poorly
 
I'm disappointed in you @badp
 
5:18 PM
on purpose
 
I have standards
I have the best standards
like a limit on the number of ctrl-z's I get to have while mspainting
 
The Best Standards Mexico Didn't Pay For
 
or like, if I'm resizing or retouching things, it needs to be painfully obvious, in order to truly underline the derivativenessitudelyness of the work
or like, a healthy disregard for shame
 
Watching a dog eat peanut butter is one of the most enjoyable things.
If I'm on mobile and therefore can't see the star list, does that mean nothing exists?
 
SHE LIVESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS

5:25 PM
@spugsley @spugsley pls
 
@spugsley Babies will rue this day!
 
why you always make us think you die?
 
So. Things have been interesting.
 
anyways welcome back
 
@spugsley IA IA @SPUGSLEY FTHAGN!
 
5:26 PM
@spugsley YYYYYYYYYYYYYYAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAYYYYYYYYYYYYYY
cc @Ktash
 
We found out yesterday that Ian's job no longer exists here in Charlotte and we have to move to Redmond, WA BY AUGUST FUCKING 1ST
I feel like cc @Ktash is also appropriate here
 
@spugsley Ooo, I applied for a job in Redmond.
 
west coast best coast
 
they gave us a bomb ass relocation package but also AUGUST 1ST
 
Probably not going to get it, but I figured I'd put that out there.
 
5:27 PM
@Yuuki good luck :)
 
@GodEmperorDune I only visited CA once but it seems this way.
 
@GodEmperorDune yea, we have an ocean here
 
anywhere that isn't North Carolina is best
 
@Dragonrage all the coasts have oceans
 
@GodEmperorDune yes, but we have the best ocean
 
5:27 PM
@spugsley So it sounds like you're excited to move.
 
@StrixVaria um. Yes and also completely fucking terrified in every way
 
@spugsley so ~3 months?
 
@spugsley Legit.
 
I haven't told my mom yet X_x
 
@GodEmperorDune I don't think you've been to Oklahoma, the state with the most coastline in the continental US.
 
5:28 PM
@Dragonrage probably less. He needs to start work on Aug 1st
 
And yes, that is a fact.
 
3 months from now would be july 19th right?
 
oh yeah so about 3months
 
A wild @spugsley appears! :O
 
@Dragonrage That would be 2 months
 
5:29 PM
(And yes, Oklahoma is landlocked. And still has more coastline than Florida)
 
@Yuuki are you using some weird definition of "coast"?
 
@Yuuki AHEM
 
Coast also includes things that aren't oceans
 
Here in Michigan we do one thing right
 
@GodEmperorDune Oklahoma has hella artificial lakes.
 
5:30 PM
Things I have already learned: 1)I will miss Charlotte's cost of living because good god WA 2)trying to find an apartment or living situation while across a FUCKING COUNTRY is terrifying 3) I will know no one except Ian
so that's that
 
@KevinvanderVelden not according to google
> the part of the land near the sea; the edge of the land.
 
a ~3k mile move. thats intense. ive moved a few times and its stressful, especially when you are the people moving everything
 
@GodEmperorDune seas aren't oceans
 
> Oklahoma has more man-made lakes than any other state, with over one million surface acres of water and 2,000 more miles of shoreline than the Atlantic and Gulf coasts combined.
 
hope all goes well
 
5:32 PM
> combined
 
@Yuuki shoreline != coastline
 
@GodEmperorDune Sounds like something a Californian would say.
 
@spugsley good luck on the move!
How are you doing aside of the terrified/excieted for the move?
 
@spugsley I'll be there for you!

Q: shore, shoreline, beach, coast, coastline

nimaI have browsed the Internet several times, and eventually, I failed to learn what is the difference exactly between those. It would be appreciated, if someone please through a marked or signed picture show me their differences. Or, where are they located or imagined exactly-- or, which oart of ...

BOOM
to all you
 
5:33 PM
cue Friends opening theme
 
@Arperum well, my hair is totally purple now so at least there's that :)
 
@spugsley I feel like you're going to love it there. So many photogenic places.
 
@Fluttershy I'm pretty gosh darn excited about that tbh
 
@spugsley yes, think of the hawt pics
 
@spugsley Oooh! I got mine recolored just this afternoon :)
 
5:33 PM
@Arperum yay! :D
 
You guys with your exciting hair.
 
@Yuuki california has the 3rd most coastline of any us state. 1st is alaska, and 2nd is florida
 
it looks fantastic!
 
@KevinvanderVelden \o/ Convenient inb4!
 
5:34 PM
 
@spugsley your purple is better
 
I'm reminded of that theorem that says that the length of a coastline/shoreline grows as the precision of the measurement does
 
@spugsley That looks amazing!
 
@KevinvanderVelden Has anyone told @Arperum that he looks like that dude from Silicon Valley?
 
@Yuuki shoreline is a superset of coastline because it includes lakes
@spugsley so hawt
 
5:35 PM
@KevinvanderVelden Her hair was bleached first. Mine isn't.
 
@Arperum I AM GOING TO MISS MY STYLIST I WANT TO MOVE HER TO WA WITH ME
 
@Yuuki I dunno, contrary to popular opinion I am not, in fact, @Arperum
 
@Yuuki i was thinking that
 
@spugsley just put her in your trunk! It'll be fiiiine
 
@KevinvanderVelden I don't know how people could be fooled into thinking @Arperum was Half Life 3
 
5:36 PM
@KevinvanderVelden she's prob be chill with that considering NC is the fucking worst
also I googled "big ass spiders in Washington" so I knew what I was getting myself into and apparently a demon called the "Giant House Spider" is my new reality
IT HAS GIANT IN THE NAME
 
@KevinvanderVelden My girlfriends hair is also that color when freshly recolored :) But you've seen how it washes out after a while. (it turns blue, and now blueish green.
 
Blueish green best colour though
 
@spugsley spiders are your friend
 
@spugsley Better that than Scorpions if you had to move to AZ, right?
 
they eat bugs and stuff
 
5:37 PM
@Arperum mine has turned pinkish at the roots and is fading super silver all around. It's pretty rad. It's like two looks for the price of one
 
@spugsley those are fun, we have those over here. I recommend a vacuum
 
Hey, it's @spugsley! With purple hair!
 
I'm trying to find the solution to this Oklahoma shoreline thing and I'm confused as hell now
 
@KevinvanderVelden blergh
 
Also damn you guys now I'm thinking about coloring my hair
 
5:38 PM
@KevinvanderVelden YES YES YES
 
Oklahoma is claiming they have 55k miles of shoreline, but that's completely goofy
 
@spugsley My hair dresser does not understand how my girlfriends hair washes out to blue.
 
@twobugs Solution?
 
18 secs ago, by spugsley
@KevinvanderVelden YES YES YES
 
@twobugs Again, a lot of artificial lakes.
 
5:39 PM
@Yuuki To the question of who has the most shoreline, but more importantly "how can I prove Yuuki wrong"
 
I'm probably going to bleach mine somewhere this summer and then go for blue hair.
 
Until you've driven around Oklahoma, you don't understand how many lakes Oklahoma has.
 
@KevinvanderVelden but if we all colored our hair, then would colored hair would lose its magic?
 
@twobugs shoreline includes lakes, oceans, and seas. coastline includes just oceans and seas
 
I just find it very difficult to believe that Oklahoma can support that many lakes. Don't they have to deal with droughts?
 
5:39 PM
@Arperum lol yeah that makes zero color theory sense
 
@badp no because then we can just walk around and look like a rainbow from the top
 
I have relatives in Oklahoma and part of my family is from there, but this sounds like a more recent development
 
@badp blasphemy
 
@spugsley Let's see if I can find some pictures on tumblr :p
 
YEAH!
 
5:40 PM
besides i thought minnesota had more lakes
 
@KevinvanderVelden that requires someone to be blonde or brown
 
Minnesota doesn't, iirc
 
12 mins ago, by Yuuki
@GodEmperorDune I don't think you've been to Oklahoma, the state with the most coastline in the continental US.
 
I guess black-haired people don't get a free pass though
 
Well it's probably less colour theory and more chemicals
 
5:41 PM
@Yuuki meant shoreline here rather than coastline
so its wrong
 
What if I dyed my hair black?
 
Acceptable, assuming it's a jet black
 
@Yuuki your rainbow membership card is instantly destroyed
 
@spugsley Do I have ou on steam? I'll link to her tumblr there :)
 
perhaps? I have no idea what my steamname is :3 I'll get it in a few
 
5:42 PM
@KevinvanderVelden But what if my hair is a natural jet black?
 
ugh I think today I should probably tackle closets. It's pretty cool that we get to donate almost all our shit
 
@Yuuki hmmm tricky
 
im going to dye my hair my natural hair color
 
@spugsley Mine is arperum, and I have the same picture as in here.
 
Actually I think Minnesota does have more lakes
 
5:43 PM
@Arperum I added you :)
 
@spugsley I lived in WA for four years, and only had to deal with one giant house spider. So it should be okay.
 
in case you wanted them
 
thanks!
 
yep
 
@spugsley I would not have guessed that was you
 
5:47 PM
amg, @spugsley is moving? :O
 
@Fluttershy How giant
 
@GnomeSlice 2 feet
 
Moving sucks, but hopefully being somewhere else will be great
 
@TimStone to WA. By Aug 1st. Yes.
 
@KevinvanderVelden Maybe more, but the average scientist doesn't have enough feet to measure.
 
5:48 PM
@GnomeSlice do an image search for "Giant House Spider". It's fucking horrible
 
I changed my mind, I don't want to know
 
@GnomeSlice Three inch diameter, maybe?
 
good choice. I regret it. But I needed to know how horrifying the insects in WA are
 
eugh
 
Maybe four.
 
5:50 PM
@spugsley nightmare fuel
 
^^^^^
 
But they tend to stick to themselves. They're spiderbros.
 
and I heard they don't bite and they try to run away because they are scared of everything
doesn't help though
 
i used to have spiders for pets.
i fed them wasps
 
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
 
5:51 PM
@spugsley When a spider successfully runs away, that's the worst.
 
@spugsley This is accurate. They just hang around and eat the bad bugs.
 
@Dragonrage don't encourage them
@StrixVaria they are summoning more, for sure
 
@GodEmperorDune i kept black widows and wolf spiders
 
@Dragonrage that's probably the most metal thing I've ever heard
"I kept spiders for pets. I fed them wasps."
 
spiders are fine. wasps are evil
 
5:52 PM
okay I need to get something done today. At least write a to-do list. This is all very overwhelming
 
so what better way to kill a wasp than by feeding it to a spider so that they get to experience excruciating pain from poison?
 
@Fluttershy I think my parents had at one point one of these that had a web in their bedroom, they sorta gave it a name and ignored it for the rest. It might have been an other smaller sort of spider, but is was a seriously big ass spider either way.
 
man fuck spiders, seriously
 
@StrixVaria My typos are true to my soul
 
i had several wolf spiders that were about 3 inches in diameter
 
5:53 PM
@GodEmperorDune Have you met mosquitos?
 
@Yuuki screw them too
 
the black widows were only slightly smaller
 
Because in Houston, thank god for spiders.
 
Spiders are not allowed in my home unless they formally request an embassy first.
 
also black widows will fight any bug that gets stuck in their web, so i also fed them fig beetles
 
5:55 PM
I am willing to shop at spider bake sales but I don't want them n my neighborhood
 
 
those things can break free of almost any web, and very few spiders will attack them
but black widows can kill them pretty easily, and black widow web is strong enough to hold them pretty easily
basically i used my spiders to get rid of any bug that i found that i didnt want
 
@Dragonrage So you fed them code?
 
@Dragonrage backs away slowly
 
5:58 PM
RIP @twobugs
 
@Arperum i wasnt actually programming at the time. this was back in high school
 
@Dragonrage leave @twobugs alone
 
While I understand, maybe, the utility of having a spider as a pet, what about NOPE
 
Rip: my pc doesn't boot
 
I don't think I could have a pet that I didn't want to touch, be near, see, or even know exists.
 
5:59 PM
People like Tarantulas as pets and I'm sorry, that's pure nope
 
Bah, why didn't we just make this class thread safe? Alternatively, why didn't we make the calling code for one particular instantiation of this class thread safe?
 
I kinda wanna get a snek.
 
@Yuuki sneks are smelly
 
@Yuuki I would get a hundred snake pets before I got a spider.
 
At least pet ones are kept in terrariums
