Chia ...argh.... this doesn't look good for increasing chances of a nice hard drive sale this year. Glad I bought a few in November.

G4te_Keep3r
but hdd mining is not new
-
atphoenix
who wants to make a LandCoin? it's limited by the square foot of your yard that you dedicate to it. Or an ArchiveCoin? Save more WARCs, get more coin. AT has a headstart there
-
EggplantN
G4te_Keep3r yeah but this shits got big backers and PR
-
EggplantN
its annoying
-
aaeaston
ArchiveCoin could be an implementation of the basicattentiontoken.con
-
aaeaston
* basicattentiontoken.com
-
EggplantN
urgh can eeaston come back
-
EggplantN
imma get him on my lounge instance
-
EggplantN

-
Ajay
Burst coin is the other HDD mining coin
-
aaeaston
Hi.
-
aaeaston
How is everyone's day going?
-
m0nika
pretty good
-
m0nika
EggplantN aaeaston is here
-
aaeaston

-
aaeaston
My presence here is important now?
-
m0nika
Egg asked to be pinged when you came back
-
m0nika
.. maybe lol
-
aaeaston
Anywho what did you need EggplantN?
-
aaeaston
Who is says he has been idle for some thirty mins.
-
aaeaston
*Whois

JAA
It's because your client is the worst.
-
aaeaston
How so JAA?
-
aaeaston
It has dark mode that doesn't work and disconnects randomly.
-
aaeaston
What more do I need?
-
aaeaston
Ironically, it is the only one with higher than four stars on the App Store.
-
JAA
In some channels, your joins and quits are literally the only message on my screen from the past few hours.
-
JAA
In other channels, it's only half of them.
-
aaeaston
Ahaha.
-
JAA
And yeah, any client on a phone without a bouncer will have this problem.
-
aaeaston
Wtf is a bouncer?
-
JAA
-
aaeaston
Basically a VPN?
-
JAA
Bouncer connects to the IRC network from a stable connection, you connect to the bouncer from whatever unstable crap you're on.
-
JAA
The latter never shows up on the network.
-
atphoenix
An intermediary. Proxy of sorts.
-
aaeaston
Got it JAA atphoenix
-
aaeaston
EggplantN: ping me when you are back
-

G4te_Keep3r
phone tag...irc edition
-
Doranwen
LOL
-
Terbium
the idea of the game IRC tag is quite entertaining
-
Terbium
i just hide join/quit/parts messages using the built in option in my client (quassel)
-
Terbium
eliminates the extraneous messages from ephermeral/phone IRC connections
-
Wayward
it's nice to leave /part commands, because 99% of the time they are intentional by manual human motivation, not automation.
-
Wayward
good way to tell when someone becomes disgusted
-
Wayward
i've even gotten some bot coders to switch punishment from "join flooding" to "part flooding" instead.
-
Ajay
I like how element collapses them

AK
EggplantN: My brewdog box just arrived,
brewdog.com/uk/staycation-48 Currently on the punk IPA
-
AK
(And catching up on yahoo chat)
-
EggplantN
Are you dumb son AK
-
AK
uhoh
-
EggplantN
That must be one of the worst brewdog bundles I’ve ever seen
-
AK
yes
-
EggplantN
Kaz
-
EggplantN
come take a look at this
-
AK
I just wanted a mix of random shit
-
EggplantN
So you got a box of seltzer’s?
-
AK
lol
-
EggplantN
Jeez man
-
EggplantN
Did I share you lowcostbeer
-
EggplantN
Also do you like Sake AK?
-
AK
Yeah but I forgot about it
-
AK
Never tried it
-
EggplantN
-
EggplantN
Good ducking deal right now
-
EggplantN
-
AK
Damn
-
AK
I want that fridge
-
EggplantN
Don’t you all
-
EggplantN
Yeah AK I’ve got a shop like 1hr up the road that does short date beer for cheap
-
EggplantN
amongst other shit
-
EggplantN
-
EggplantN
It’s super strange
-
AK
Man I love bargain stores like that
-
AK
Can fill up on so much crap food and snacks
-
AK
Also eww north of England
-
EggplantN
Oh yeah there’s all sorts of random shit.
-
CounterPillow
-
AK
k but y
-
HCross
AK: he's unfortunately from _the grim north_
-
Kaz
EggplantN AK oh no
-
Kaz
£50 tho
-
EggplantN
50
-
AK
The big 5 0
-
Kaz
beerhawk.co.uk/beer-hawk-beery-gift-box not as good value, but you can get this for £10 if you have Monzo plus
-
Kaz
and/or I'll give you a code
-
AK
OOh I do have monzo plus
-
Kaz
v much considering the brewdog box
-
Kaz
the seltzer stuff can just _exist_ for a while until required
-
AK
EggplantN don't cry
-
Kaz
sainsburys still doesn't have lost, so I have to go to tesco for it
-
EggplantN
seltzer is pointless
-
EggplantN
i have vodka
-
EggplantN
i'll mix it with council pop if i want low cals
-
atphoenix
EggplantN, is the BB Store mostly short dated or even past-dated items?
-
EggplantN
yep it is
-
atphoenix
we have those in the US too. They're awesome if you know how the dates really work.
-
atphoenix
The stuff they get is kind of randomthey have random stuff
-
atphoenix
oops meant to use backspace there not enter
-
nyany
that looks like a store i'd want to walk through and read all the labels
-
nyany
not gonna lie
-
atphoenix
best part of these kind of stores is the randomness in what they carry. We've been able to try all sorts of products we'd never normally find in our area. Or that we'd never pay full retail price for.
-
nyany
yeah
-
nyany
I like stores that have a little bit of everything
-
atphoenix
worst part of these kind of stores is if you find you really liked something...good luck finding it there again. Or possibly finding it anywhere, as they're often also closeout items.
-
Jake
I... was about to type this
-
EggplantN
best things to buy are multi packs atphoenix. the date on the box is usually a month or 2 before the dates in the box
-
nyany
liquidation stores
-
EggplantN
I've had like 96 cans of goose had dates of like Jan, all cans were for June
-
nyany
saywhatnow
-
nyany

-
nyany

-
EggplantN
Goose Island
-
EggplantN
beer
-
nyany
oh
-
nyany
never heard ofit
-
EggplantN
I like grey goose tho
-
EggplantN
what fine country you from
-
nyany
i was going to say the land of the rain but that'd mean england and i'm a wee bit far away from that
-
EggplantN
goose is very USA and a decent bit in UK
-
nyany
i'm canadian
-
EggplantN
> land of rain
-
EggplantN
> wee bit far
-
EggplantN
ok scotsman
-
nyany
i could really throw you off
-
nyany
but i promise i'm in the land of mcflurries
-
nyany
wait hold up they're available in the us never mind
-
atphoenix
you mean natural McFlurries from the sky?
-
nyany
I WISH
-
nyany
-
atphoenix
I was referring to weather...in Feb, TX got a taste of Canadian cold
-
atphoenix
TX didn't like it much
-
atphoenix
MN didn't flinch
-
nyany
no they did not\
-
atphoenix
of course now TX companies are now trying to get MN and other northern states to pay for TX's mess
-
Kaz
wait no fuck it's this channel
-
Kaz
_bought_
-
nyany
what'd you buy?
-
EggplantN
why kaz
-
EggplantN
theres better bundles
-
Kaz
i wanna try their seltzer stuff, and the pineapple cider
-
Kaz
and am no broke
-
Kaz
oh shit im unemployed rn
-
EggplantN

-
EggplantN
i thought they just hired you
-
Kaz
contract at employer #1 ended today, employer #2 starts on monday
-
EggplantN
ah
-
Kaz
been there since sep 2015
-
atphoenix
so you are literally between jobs
-
nyany
i'm on a contract right now
-
nyany
it's just being repeatedly extended and will hopefully become an agreement so we'd be considered full time permanent instead of full time temps
-
atphoenix
that's like my brother saying he was homeless after selling House 1 but before buying House 2. He lived with me until the House 2 purchase completed.
-
AK
I had a weekend between my jobs, it felt weird knowing that I was technically unemployed for four days
-
Kaz
i am also homeless, i own 0 homes
-
Kaz
tragic
-
hook54321
McFlurries aren't that great
-
nyany
hook54321: ok you and i need to have a chat
-
nyany
They're OK in this area
-
nyany
I can't wait for July though, McLobster should be coming back
-
hook54321
nyany: they taste like very plain ice cream with oreo bits in them, and feel overpriced. not sure if they're different there though.
-
hook54321
it's not bad, just not my favorite
