I just realized that I've had a twitter account for more than half my life.

BlueBarren

@Avery wut

twitter has been out that long?

DanmakuGrazer

Avery is just very young

BlueBarren

Well I knew that

but that also means Twitter's old and if Twitter's old than I'm old

Avery

well

DanmakuGrazer

I refuse to accept that Twitter is older than 4 years, so Avery must be 8 at most

Fluttershy

15:19

I forget how young @Avery is pretty much daily. <_<

badp

@DanmakuGrazer BANNED

BlueBarren

Guys age is just a number

Avery

I've had a twitter account for 3077 days and lived for 6119 days

MadMAxJr

A legally important number.

badp

my number is better than your number

Avery

15:20

@BlueBarren I know where you're going. Don't do that.

BlueBarren

@Avery we're all 25 at heart?

or maybe 25 is too old for some people, we're all 'young' at heart

MadMAxJr

But if you trigger a buffer overflow you can get a negative age value. This helps you speedrun life.

BlueBarren

Are you saying going backwards can actually lead forward?

quick, someone fly counter-clockwise around the planet at super speed a couple of times

Avery

@BlueBarren it launched on 2006

I registered on 2009

I may have broke a little something called coppa by doing so but who cares

Unionhawk

Yeah it's existed a while

BlueBarren

15:24

@Avery holy crap, I was 10 in 2006. Twitter came out when I was 10!?

Avery

I was 6 in 2006

and yes.

BlueBarren

@Avery stop this madness, people are starting to feel old

Avery

psh

all aboard the @Sterno ride

MadMAxJr

I'm 35, you guys make me feel old because most of you don't have a pre-internet era in your life.

GodEmperorDune

@MadMAxJr yay, another bridger older than me

but i remember pre-internet

BlueBarren

15:25

@MadMAxJr huh, what's "pre-internet"? Is that a new social media platform?

badp

@MadMAxJr pretty much everyone has a pre-computer era in their life.

Beedrill

@MadMAxJr My wife is playing through Kingdom Hearts and when she got stuck briefly she looked up where to go. And it reminded me of when I was a kid and my friend got stuck in the same spot so he was just stuck for an hour until he randomly stumbled in the right direction.

MadMAxJr

In the late 80s and early 90s, mainstream internet access didn't exist yet. But we had local and long-distance call BBS systems.

badp

for me this era did end at the age of 3 or so though

GodEmperorDune

@Beedrill remember you could call the tiplines for 99 cents a minute?

MadMAxJr

15:26

@badp Specifically referencing 'Consumer internet didn't exist yet' not PCs in general

GodEmperorDune

or wait for one of the magazines to come out with a guide

Beedrill

@GodEmperorDune I remember being aware of that but I never seriously considered doing any such thing.

GodEmperorDune

@Beedrill same

badp

@MadMAxJr please do not feel old in a way that you cannot help

please age responsibly

if it helps you were of a different unrecoverable age to me before you told me your actual age

MadMAxJr

Well I've got physical ailments that one shouldn't be at risk for until their 60s, so life is already simply unfair in general, internet or not.

badp

15:27

which goes to show you are not actually as old inside as you technically are

MadMAxJr

But that is neither here nor there.

badp

you may be older or younger

so it is either here or there

and no one knows.

Unionhawk

Hmm

MadMAxJr

The point is, there was this time, where "Google it" wasn't an option.

Unionhawk

This is still not right is it

BlueBarren

15:28

something something relativity

Unionhawk

:/

GodEmperorDune

@MadMAxJr you have to call your doctor immediately if your bridge usage lasts for more than four hours

badp

@MadMAxJr I am familiar with the concept.

There's lots of stuff you can't google

MadMAxJr

Wikipedia? Uuhhhhh. I have a 1987 Encyclopedia Britannica.

badp

I can however claim that I've used the pre-Google internets

GodEmperorDune

15:29

i remember microsoft encarta

MadMAxJr

Encyclopedias, a summary of all general knowledge!

Imagine if Encyclopedias had a 'talk' page where all the editorial notes were kept.

badp

@GodEmperorDune Tahoma 7pt for days

but hey it did have the 3D garden of knowledge sorta thing

hell, remember when MS Sans Serif was the font

before this Segoe UI stuff

before that Tahoma stuff

and thankfully after that Fixedsys stuff

computers still ship with MS Sans Serif but it's just not the same thing after cleartype

@MadMAxJr they probably did

they just weren't on the CD

fredley

Meanwhile, in mining

user15026

@GodEmperorDune my mom would never let me do that.

Avery

@Beedrill psh I know they existed too

badp

15:39

@fredley :100:

user15026

@MadMAxJr we didn't have internet til I was 12, and my parents only had dial up til...2008? Maybe later. I am bad at time.

user15026

is going to be 30 next month, feels old

badp

I'm surrounded by people who insist something snaps in your early mid-30s and your body enters difficult mode

which is just what I wanted for chirstmas

MadMAxJr

You keep talking about encyclopedias on CD. I'm talking about gigantic tomes on a shelf!

Oh man, I'm older than Ash?

Any older and I'm going to be a Dark Souls hollow sitting here.

Avery

@MadMAxJr stares at sterno

GodEmperorDune

15:49

@badp can confirm, it happened between 30 and 31 for me

MadMAxJr

Only instead of swinging a sword or poking a spear when I see The Chosen Undead run by, I just point and vote to close.

GodEmperorDune

my metabolism put in it's 2 weeks notice

badp

@MadMAxJr you do realize all paper encyclopedias ever didn't spontaneously combust as soon as Google was a thing

Of course my parents and grands have one

It's occasionally fun to flip through a volume idly

as an alphabetical compendium of human knowledge

I don't think I can afford buying one for myself

Maybe once I have kids

fat chance

GodEmperorDune

@badp is it an italian one? how many volumes are dedicated to pasta sauce?

badp

15:56

@GodEmperorDune yes. Not enough

MadMAxJr

The load time on paper encyclopedias were ridiculous. Unoptimized searches too.

badp

@MadMAxJr can't be worse than tape drives

Unionhawk

Isn't the load time of paper 0?

🤔

badp

PLEASE INSERT FLOPPY DISK #2417

but for tape drives

GodEmperorDune

@Unionhawk until you get PC load letter

Yuuki

16:08

kfcpls

GodEmperorDune

@Yuuki so thats how they get to 19 different herbs and spices

BlueBarren

Switch has screenshot button Here let me take a picture of the screen with my phone!

cringe

Yuuki

That screenshot button goes straight to Facebook or Twitter, I thought?

Unionhawk

Nope

Yuuki

No wait, the share options are only Facebook and Twitter.

But it stores locally.

Unionhawk

16:14

Yes

GodEmperorDune

so they made a candy crush gameshow...

Yuuki

Wish I could just email it or something.

I don't use Facebook or Twitter.

BlueBarren

Still 100% worth it vs taking a picture of a screen

John

16:30

@Unionhawk Wait, what happened to lpmf?

Unionhawk

Same thing that happened to @twobugs

He's just not here

Frank

Wee! Power surges!

Knocked out something in our building; we're DOA right now.

GodEmperorDune

@Unionhawk RIP

@John RIP

Kevin van der Velden

16:46

@Frank doa?

BlueBarren

@KevinvanderVelden dead on arrival

Kevin van der Velden

Not sure that's what he meant which is why I'm asking

GodEmperorDune

@KevinvanderVelden yeah, dead in the water might have been a better expression to use

Kevin van der Velden

Yeah, if he meant dead on arrival my next question is what arrived? =p

BlueBarren

I find the expression is commonly used to express situations like @Frank's

badp

16:49

PROTIP

BlueBarren

it's just away to say you're out of commission

badp

$data = [ map {s/'//g} @{$data} ];

wrong

$data = [ map {s/'//gr} @{$data} ];

correct

Kevin van der Velden

still wrong

Cause it's still perl

GodEmperorDune

@KevinvanderVelden at least its not php

Kevin van der Velden

That's not even wrong, that's @Wipqozn

badp

16:50

@KevinvanderVelden less wrong

GodEmperorDune

@KevinvanderVelden @Wipqozn is joining the enlightened and doing django

Kevin van der Velden

He's still @Wipqozn though

Frank

@KevinvanderVelden dead on arrival, yep.

Company is down until we get power back.

BlueBarren

I'm jealous...

I mean... uh...

my company is great, I love always working at 100% efficiency all the time

but of course still following proper law by taking breaks and such

Unionhawk

I shouldn't have named that last shelfset "my change description - final"

adds "my change description - final 2"

nailed it

Yuuki

16:58

my change description - absolutely definitely final this time guys I swear

BlueBarren

Oh you people

having other people that might look at that stuff

I'm all by myself

my change description could be poop and no one would know

Unionhawk

Oh god dammit I left an automatically generated event handler in

welp

Kevin van der Velden

"my change description - final 3" it is

Unionhawk

I'll probably leave it

BlueBarren

@Unionhawk my change description - I'm an idiot

Unionhawk

17:00

It's nothing major

BlueBarren

classic @uni

Yuuki

@Unionhawk inb4 handles event onpageload and crashes the entire app

Unionhawk

@Yuuki It handles tabcontrol.ontabchanged and does nothing

so I'll just check in the version that doesn't have it, no real need to shelve that

I hate that visual studio does that

but oh well

gogo monkey selfie

Yuuki

17:45

@TimStone Oh, for a few minutes there, I thought "Naruto" was referring to the anime/manga and not the name of a monkey.

I'll admit that it made the judge's question of how PETA could be considered a friend of Naruto to be much more amusing.

Unionhawk

I think I accidentally copy pasted a control I didn't mean to and it generated the code for it

>_>

Yuuki

doggo says hi

Fluttershy

So the Castlevania anime on Netflix is pretty great.

Yuuki

Isn't like only 4 episodes?

murgatroid99

Yeah. It's basically the introduction to the series

Avery

17:56

it got recommended to me yesterday. I should check it out.

Fluttershy

Yep. It's loosely based on Castlevania III: Dracula's Curse.

Which was a prequel to the original Castlevania.

They've already confirmed season 2 will have more episodes.

Kevin van der Velden

@TimStone I don't think peta is gonna win

Unionhawk

yeeeah

MadMAxJr

Castlevania 3. Of all the ones to do a script on.

I mean, deep down inside, I'd love a dramatic "YOU STEAL MENS SOULS, AND MAKE THEM YOUR SLAVES!" etc etc bit animated.

user15026

18:15

@TimStone Wait, I thought this was resolved? What's the issue now with the selfie?

user15026

@Yuuki Nah, I think this is specifically pink tax related

Unionhawk

@Ash Sounds like district court?

appeals woo

Yuuki

@Ash Oh, the Komen people?

Unionhawk

Also holy crap this one handed run from sgdq

badp

TFW you can't solve a data issue without a code rollout

I wonder how you'd even solve data issues by hand if your application was like written in Java or whatever. You'd probably have to write a new program every time

with all of the relevant overhead

and someone would probably be like "what is this and why are you modifying production data from your mystery meat thing"

user15026

18:24

@Yuuki nah, pink tax is the fact that lady crap is more expensive even when it is the same crap but pink

user15026

Like disposable razors, etc

Kevin van der Velden

"Bic for Her"

user15026

So the game is the same but pink so therefore it will appeal to ladies because they like pink and they can then charge more

user15026

@KevinvanderVelden ooh, that's also a good example

user15026

cnbc.com/2017/03/28/…

Yuuki

18:25

Aaaahhh...

BlueBarren

I find it silly we charge for things that we need to keep us healthy and hygienic

like toothpaste

user15026

That article does a pretty good job of explaining it

BlueBarren

are you saying people should just let their teeth rot and die?

Unionhawk

yes

user15026

@BlueBarren Don't even get me started on the cost to be a human who menstruates...because that stuff is EXPENSIVE.

Unionhawk

18:26

#capitalism

Yuuki

user15026

Mhm.

Yuuki

indiscriminate rage

user15026

Sorry, it didn't do that to me :(

Yuuki

And it scrolls down with your scrolling.

BlueBarren

18:27

@Ash of course, I was just trying to pick something relate-able to everyone like toothpaste

Kevin van der Velden

Anti-adblock?

Doesn't do it for me either

Unionhawk

inspect->hide element

user15026

@Yuuki Ruuuude

Unionhawk

or delete element

user15026

@BlueBarren Teeth are important!

Yuuki

18:27

Is news media seriously wondering why people are annoyed at their websites?

Unionhawk

Yes

BlueBarren

@Ash so is menstruation! Or why it happens? Not sure how to word this but understand my sentiment that the cost of health and hygiene products is an insult to all humans!

you should only pay for stuff you don't need like the latest Nintendo gaming system or a copy of Bad Rats

Unionhawk

> you may be wondering why the text is japanese but the voice is english. First of all it annoys purists which amuses me greatly, but actually english voices are faster, but japanese text is faster on loading screens

BlueBarren

although that kind of sentiment would probably put the world economy on it's head but this is also why I don't make important decisions

murgatroid99

To be fair, this is just a regular consequence of capitalism. The price of everything is a function of supply and demand

BlueBarren

18:33

if we were communist this wouldn't be a problem, right?

Yuuki

@murgatroid99 Hey. The Secretary of the Department of Energy has stated on record that demand is a function of supply.

If you have the supply, the demand will be there.

So really, the price of everything is a function of supply.

Unionhawk

Well, I mean to be fair demand is partially a function of price so

economics is complicated woo

@Ash :C

Avery

> women's clothing cost 8% more than men's

lol no

the difference is much, much more.

user15026

18:47

@Avery extra so if you are a feminine-dressing human of size.

Avery

On the identical same thing the price difference might be that but when you account for the expectations of the society in terms of your apparel, the difference gets much mroe.

badp

How to dress

1. Pick loosely matching socks

2. Pick shirt

3. Use yesterday's trousers

also maybe underwear

BlueBarren

Instead of buying clothes I think we need to buy more cats (Yes I know this has been posted here before but I saw it reposted on Reddit so I'll just repost it here)

Avery

see I can grab a whole set of acceptable male clothing for ~50try but if I want a decent feminine tshirt or whatever I need to pay more than 50try.

BlueBarren

18:54

clothing prices should only vary on 2 things, material and complexity of design (assuming the design makes it harder to manufacture)

if we have a plain (like it's just a t-shirt) 'male' t-shirt and a 'female' t-shirt both made out of cotton it should cost the same

badp

I honestly I don't know how I manage to dress every morning

BlueBarren

@badp it's probably because the law dictates that you do

badp

especially when it's one of these mornings when I wake up because I'm sleeping so well I must be late for work

BlueBarren

being s-nekkid is illegal

badp

like this morning
