05:55 <KooK> OH!  I got my leaf blower back

05:56 <KooK> Freaking forgot about that...

05:56 <RazorSharpFang> Why blow leaves when you can eat them?

06:48 * Schism sneezes repeatedly. "Gneeeeh." Curls up next to Filly_Nightmares, needs warms.

06:55 <PinkieShy> Going to use my old wordpress like a tumblr for interest and such :)

06:55 <PinkieShy> Why not.. :)

06:55 <PinkieShy> Make it not just about reviews, and news this time.. Make it a little about everything.

07:01 <Cepheid> Time for me to obtain some curtains I think.  I am starting to have trouble sleeping.  Too bright in my room.

07:19 <Cepheid> I am not sure why, but something about Winter changes the properties of light pollution.  There seems to be a lot more light reflected off the clouds at night, or the ground.  It results in a much brighter night time environment.

07:24 <Schism> A higher albedo, yes.

07:25 <PinkieShy> Verizon was so scummy when it comes to Prepaid phones :/

07:25 <Schism> The latter half of that sentence can probably be truncated.

07:25 <PinkieShy> The old moto g4 play I got its version XT1609 where Moto only made it compatible with Verizon wireless..

07:26 <PinkieShy> GSM mhz and other bands isn't support..

07:26 <PinkieShy> Since verizon is only allowing hd voice phones to be activated on their network now.. The g4 play is dead phone so might sell it :P

07:27 <Cepheid> Just integrate it into a botnet.  Least then it will serve a use.

07:27 <PinkieShy> Eco ATM website says i can get $5 for it..

07:28 <Cepheid> The grammar of English is a butchered monster that somehow continues to live to this day.

07:30 <Schism> Cepheid: A Frankenstein's monster, well-meaning but hated by all who struggle with its existence.

07:32 <Cepheid> Studying a bit for my exam later today.  Subject is Linguistics.  Material is covering syntax and morphology of language.  I am currently reading up on the structure of an English sentence.

07:32 <Schism> Germanic languages in general are a bit weird.

07:38 <PinkieShy> Found a game i like :3

07:38 <PinkieShy> cs:go

07:39 * Ali turns it into Fallout 76 *shot repeatedly*

07:39 <Schism> Ali: The players found the keys to the nukes.

07:40 <Ali> Error Bethesda Game Code not found

07:40 <Schism> They found that, too.

07:40 <Ali> The game code?  Was it not just one of their hacking mini games?

07:41 <Schism> Well, it uses the old, hacked-to-heck-and-back engine.

07:41 *** Joins: R0adkill (R0adkill@Pony-rs6.dr8.16.184.IP)

07:43 <Ali> I swear do the monkeys at Bethesda know how to make a game anymore?

07:43 <Cepheid> Yes.  They are just given less and less time to do so.

07:44 <Cepheid> Before being thrown under a bus by marketing and sales.

07:44 <Ali> But mostly sales

07:44 <Ali> Cause they want their broken game to sell for $60 on an ancient engine that still has the same bugs from games 10 years ago

07:45 <Cepheid> No guarantee at this point that a new engine would be better.

07:45 <Ali> But still this game makes FO4's bugs look simple

07:47 <Cepheid> Then make your own game.  I'm sure it'll go well.

07:53 <DerpyBot> New post on Equestria Daily by ExplodingPonyToast: PUDDING [ http://tinyurl.com/ydz3wwqv ]

08:12 <RazorSharpFang> Given how many discrete components bethesda's engine has, bugs are likely multifaceted, and fixing one bug would likely cause others elsewhere

08:14 <PinkieShy> good night.

08:23 <Cepheid> The problem with a new engine is that it takes time to make one.  A lot of time.  Time the higher-ups don't want to spend money on.  Better to re-use what they have.

08:23 <Ali> And it finally caught up to them

08:24 <RazorSharpFang> Development debt

08:38 * ConfusionRift boops Schism with a Spyro plush.

08:39 * Schism counterboops with an Ember plush. Not the MLP version, the Spyro version... who sounds like a certain purple pony princess.

09:05 <ConfusionRift> o_0

09:06 <Unixkitty> Microsoft. "We know what we're doing, we swear."

09:10 <Schism> Unixkitty, does Windows 2016 still crash if you try to create a directory named aux/aux?

09:10 <Unixkitty> I'm afraid I haven't and cannot try it at this time

09:11 <Schism> Probably for the best.  Though I seem to recall that the issue persists to this day...

09:11 <Schism> There are certain reserved filenames in Windows which can't be used because they used to be devices.  Names like LPT1, COM1, or AUX.

09:12 <RazorSharpFang> Back in the day of DOS

09:12 <RazorSharpFang> backwards compatibility

09:13 <Schism> Yea.

09:13 <Schism> Dirty Operating System indeed.

09:30 <RazorSharpFang> Well, it's at least it's not using systemd

09:34 <Schism> Hm, right.  With all the snow on the ground, we should be careful about those Canadian Trapdoor Alligators.

09:34 *** Quits: Reia_Hope (Reia_Hope@TheCowPony) (Connection closed)

09:35 <Schism> Cepheid: Have any students fallen victim to them yet this season?

09:37 * Filly_Nightmares curls up on Schism and sneezies

09:37 * Filly_Nightmares sneezies moar!

09:37 * Filly_Nightmares mewls at Schism for warms

09:37 * Schism offers hot lemon tea!

09:37 * Filly_Nightmares licks the tea and curls up in the cup and snugglies into Schism

09:41 <Schism> RSF: The Canadian trapdoor alligator, by the way, is a creature endemic to the Great White North, whose hunting patterns are similar to the majestic drop-bear.

09:43 * Cepheid is twitchy at the moment. For whatever bloody reason, his brain is in a feedback loop. Stressed about becoming more stressed, which is keeping him awake and further stressing him.

09:43 <Cepheid> Kind of not surprised this is happening though.  It's been three full weeks since my last "break".

09:44 <Schism> Ah... yes. Take a personal day?

09:44 <Cepheid> I can't.

09:45 <Cepheid> I have a tutorial to TA for at 8:30 AM, then an exam at 1:30 PM.

09:45 <Cepheid> I'm gonna have to keep it together until that's over.

09:45 <Schism> Ah.  ._.  Decaf tea, maybe?

09:46 <Cepheid> https://i.imgur.com/Yn6ubAZ.gifv

09:47 <Schism> Silent but deadly?

09:47 <Schism> Oh, rakes.

09:47 <Schism> The best weapon in Hitman.  o3o

09:56 * Schism reheats the last cup of coffee for now.

09:58 * Cepheid listens to music quietly.

09:59 <Cepheid> I should probably eat something at some point.

09:59 <Cepheid> Last I ate anything was 9 PM last night.

09:59 <Schism> Oatmeal is a good choice, if you have any.  Or cream of wheat.

09:59 * Filly_Nightmares licks Schism and uses Cepheid as a blanket

10:00 <Cepheid> I'm pretty sure I have some, yes.

10:00 <Schism> Add a bit of brown sugar and cinnamon...

10:00 * Filly_Nightmares eees at Schism for cream of mushroom!

10:01 <Cepheid> I'd rather avoid sugar right now.

10:01 * Schism provides some cream of mushroom soop... added to some macaroni and cheese!

10:01 <Cepheid> As it is, I'm kind of in an internal fight right now, I should eat, but I don't want to.

10:01 <Schism> Ah, yeah.  One of those situations.

10:01 * Filly_Nightmares eees happily and nomfs her food!

10:02 <Unixkitty> It's usually when something light goes well, Cepheid

10:02 <Unixkitty> A yoghurt for example, some cereal

10:03 <Cepheid> The desire to not eat is because of my failing mental state.  Somewhere in my brain is this idea that I don't deserve to eat until after the exam today, and a bit of work that needs doing.

10:04 <Schism> Something small to whet your appetite?  Eggs and toast?

10:04 <Cepheid> I can't play music loud enough to drown out that internal monologue.

10:04 <Schism> And ... not eating won't help with that exam...

10:04 <Cepheid> You misunderstand schism.  It is my brain telling me that I do not deserve to eat right now.

10:04 <Unixkitty> Something small, "eggs and toast", Schism? :P

10:04 <Cepheid> That my current state of affairs is my fault, and that I should suffer for it.

10:04 <Schism> Unixkitty, that is small!

10:05 <Unixkitty> I consider that and a cup of coffee quite a full breakfast

10:05 <Cepheid> If I had just taken my sedative after waking up last night, I'd be better off.

10:05 <Cepheid> But nope.

10:05 <Unixkitty> You are your brain, Cepheid

10:05 <Unixkitty> The brain is you

10:05 <Cepheid> I think we've already determined that my brain isn't functioning right.

10:07 * Unixkitty violently caffeinates Cepheid

10:21 <Cepheid> https://www.newshub.co.nz/home/world/2018/11/stop-setting-yourselves-on-fire-for-likes-burns-specialists.html ... I'm awake, right?

10:21 <Schism> Surely that's not... but why...

10:21 <Cepheid> Apparently it is.

10:22 <Cepheid> Setting yourself on fire, the new biggest craze on the Internet!

10:22 <ConfusionRift> ...

10:22 <Schism> "It's too stupid in too many ways to be real." -Sarda

10:23 <ConfusionRift> So cutting yourself and bleed to death is not enough?

10:23 <Cepheid> This is clearly trolling, ConfusionRift.

10:23 <Unixkitty> Let idiots destroy themselves. Who cares?

10:23 <ConfusionRift> ...good point.

10:23 <Schism> Rather not let 12 year olds do that to themselves before they have a chance to grow up and be adult idiots.

10:24 * ConfusionRift rubs his head. "Uuurgh... this... just... why?

10:25 <Schism> Of course, it's not like this sort of behaviour originated with the internet.  This sort of ritual hazing and self-flagellation for the sake of 'belonging' has been around forever.

10:25 <Cepheid> The first step to educating people is making sure they remain alive long enough to educate them, so yes, it would be preferable if these idiots didn't do this.

10:27 <Schism> I can certainly understand hot sauce challenges, ice bucket challenges, even eating a spoonful of cinnamon.  Stupid, painful, but comparatively harmless.

10:27 <Cepheid> This isn't even hazing or anything of the sort.

10:27 <Cepheid> This is just being plain malicious.

10:27 <Schism> Mmm.

10:27 <Cepheid> People who have no concept of right versus wrong, or the type of people who would gladly commit murder if they could get away with it.

10:27 <Cepheid> The worst of the worst kind of people.

10:28 <Unixkitty> This is children, so I very much doubt any serious warnings posted in news or even on their parts of internet are going to do anything.

10:28 * Schism nods, "Indeed. Telling children to set themselves on fire..."

10:28 <Cepheid> You'd be surprised, Unixkitty.

10:28 <Unixkitty> If they have parents, that would be their job. If not, what could possibly be done?

10:29 <ConfusionRift> ^

10:29 <Unixkitty> At what, kids reading serious articles? Laughable.

10:29 <Unixkitty> All those that even think about such idiocy can do is "be cool", follow their peers and get into trouble.

10:31 <Cepheid> I don't know what's more distressing, that society as a whole has reached a point where it'd rather just see stupid behavior face deadly consequences rather than you know, try to do something.

10:32 <ConfusionRift> Lately, parents have been... how do you say... useless? Yes, that's the word. So further reinforcing that these issues can harm them or worse, would help in the situation. Alas, if the parents let them be free and do whatever they feel like, it's gonna be difficult to correct as they grow.

10:33 <Cepheid> In any case, I should bow out of this discussion.  I should not have started it in the first place.

10:33 <ConfusionRift> I hate to admit... I have been feeling like that. Sometimes, the best way to correct stupidity that's beyond reason, is to let them get rammed for it.

10:33 <Unixkitty> No worries, Cepheid

10:33 <ConfusionRift> Yeeeaaaah. It would be a good idea.

10:33 <Cepheid> If I stay involved, I am going to pass the breaking point.

10:33 <Cepheid> And I need to keep everything contained.

10:34 <RazorSharpFang> Some people just want to see the world burn

10:34 <ConfusionRift> We'll move to something else.

10:34 <Cepheid> Almost lost my temper a couple of times there as is.

10:34 <Unixkitty> s/world/themselves/

10:34 <Cepheid> "the themselves"

10:34 <Unixkitty> So Cepheid, it seems as though you've not slept tonight

10:34 <Cepheid> More or less.

10:34 <Cepheid> I'd sleep now, but it's a bit late for that.

10:35 <Cepheid> And I have to be in at school for 8:30 to help a bunch of students figure out how to press CTRL+C and CTRL+V

10:35 <Unixkitty> Didn't manage even knowing you'd have an exam later in the day?

10:35 <Cepheid> I tried.

10:36 <Cepheid> Instead, all my body decided to do was start stressing over the fact that I'm getting stressed.

10:36 <Cepheid> And that I can't sleep.

10:36 <Unixkitty> What a silly thing to do, body

10:36 <Cepheid> I even tried turning off every single light source in my bedroom I could find, and applied sheets to my window to block out external light.

10:37 <Cepheid> But, it doesn't really shock me that I'm here in this state

10:37 <Cepheid> My damned mind follows a cycle.  Every two weeks, my mind just stops functioning properly and I have a break.  Somehow I managed to go three weeks this time.

10:37 <Unixkitty> Sounds like you could have used some sort of sedative or sleeping pill

10:37 *** Joins: Felix (Felix@Pony-mtbb9h.static.versatel.nl)

10:37 <Cepheid> I have to break sooner or later.  It's guaranteed.

10:38 <Unixkitty> Not sure what the proper term is, but there is medication that simply calms you down, some with additional sleepiness

10:38 <ConfusionRift> Huh. RazorSharpFang, not sure you remember, there was a time you were asking about using cabling and such to extract the copper and sell it as a form of getting some income.

10:39 <ConfusionRift> A relaxant?

10:39 <Unixkitty> Probably

10:39 <Cepheid> Antipsychotics, tranquilizers, sedatives.

10:39 <Cepheid> I have a sedative I take, but it's meant to be taken only for agitation, and while I can take it every six hours, I don't like taking it more than once a day.

10:39 <Unixkitty> Relaxant sounds like something you'd take to relax your muscles though

10:40 <Cepheid> I should have taken a second one last night.

10:40 <Cepheid> But nooooo, I had to be stupid.

10:40 *** Quits: Ali (Ali@Pony-cvibue.iplsin.sbcglobal.net) (Quit: Leaving)

10:40 <Cepheid> And now I'm here, in a worsening mental state because of my choice.

10:40 <ConfusionRift> Medication that helps regulate blood flow and muscle tension. They don't necessarily put you to sleep, but can happen.

10:40 <Cepheid> Which is recursively feeding itself.

10:42 <Unixkitty> Goodness, why is it so cold in my office today

10:42 <Unixkitty> Seems to be warmer outside than it's been in the past few days

10:42 <Cepheid> I'm gonna go eat, then take a shower.  Back in 20 or so.

10:43 <Unixkitty> Okays

10:43 <ConfusionRift> Okayday, hope it helps.

10:43 <Unixkitty> Hm, maybe central heating is being regulated oddly

10:43 <Unixkitty> Because I still have it at full

10:47 <RazorSharpFang> ConfusionRift, yes, do you have some information?

10:50 <ConfusionRift> Was watching someone stripping cabling to get the copper out. What he did was he used a press that had its teeth with enough space to pass the cables through, and a box cutter blade. He pressed the blade in such a way that it helps score the cable as he pulls the cables through. So, he pulled with both arms to separate the insulation, and the copper wiring.

10:53 <ConfusionRift> Also, copper melts at 1984'F (1085'C). Rubber burns and melts waaay before that point. You could burn it off, and then melt the copper. But be ready to scoop more impurities.

10:56 <ConfusionRift> They should sell heat resistant PPE at hardware stores.

10:57 <RazorSharpFang> I'm not sure neighbors would appreciate me burning plastic and producing fumes.

10:58 <ConfusionRift> Then option A should do it.

10:59 <ConfusionRift> The only thing that will give you issues would be superconductors, some audio cabling, and very thin wires.

10:59 <ConfusionRift> Actually, thin wiring is easy.

11:00 <ConfusionRift> Their insulation tends to be weak, so you can score a corner and pull the copper while stripping it off its insulation.

11:02 <ConfusionRift> !link https://youtu.be/N710G0FtI0s?t=37

11:02 <DerpyBot> I need to ask Twilight about that one.

11:05 <RazorSharpFang> Twilight is asleep presumably.

11:05 <ConfusionRift> For molds, you can probably get something at the hardware store, or (as odd as it sounds) a place where they sell ammo and reloading equipment. Sometimes, they have reloading equipment, which include molds for casting excess lead.

11:06 <DerpyBot> Twilight told me this video is about Trash To Treasure - Cable To Coins - Pouring Copper Coins From Scrap

11:06 <ConfusionRift> Derpy... do you need a library guide?

11:08 * Filly_Nightmares shivers and huddles on ConfusionRift

11:09 * ConfusionRift snugs Filly_Nightmares.

11:10 * Filly_Nightmares floofs up for snugglies

11:10 * Filly_Nightmares eees for moar

11:12 <RazorSharpFang> ConfusionRift, given the amount of effort to melt and cast copper into ingots, I'd not bother. Just strip the wire and sell it.

11:13 <ConfusionRift> The reason why they bother casting is to avoid the situation of getting ID checked at the scrapyards.

11:13 <ConfusionRift> Or the scrapyard reporting suspicious behavior.

11:13 <RazorSharpFang> And melting it into ingots is less suspicious?

11:14 * DashedRainbows groans

11:14 <ConfusionRift> Yes, because its already refined and its most likely purchased or acquired materials, rather than stolen.

11:14 <DashedRainbows> I can't get into deep sleep

11:15 <ConfusionRift> It's the whole thing of catching people who steal copper from houses.

11:15 <ConfusionRift> As I said, it's probably not the same there.

11:16 <RazorSharpFang> Hmmm.

11:16 <RazorSharpFang> Eh, I'd be mostly stripping out defunct products donated, or that I've decomissioned.

11:16 <ConfusionRift> Also, seriously, you spent the time stripping everything. A thief would try to sell cabling and rods as they find them.

11:17 <ConfusionRift> To me, whether they are stripped or refined is kinda the same to me.

11:18 <ConfusionRift> Yes, redundantly redundant.

11:18 <RazorSharpFang> I wonder how dense I could get a container of copper wire compared to the density of copper...

11:18 <RazorSharpFang> Maybe 20%?

11:20 * DashedRainbows hugs all the pones

11:20 <ConfusionRift> About, probably.

11:20 * ConfusionRift huggles DashedRainbows. :P

11:31 * Filly_Nightmares uses Finwe as a bed, ConfusionRift as a blanket and DashedRainbows as a plushie!

11:31 * Filly_Nightmares curls up and goes sleepies!

11:31 <Filly_Nightmares> Nini!

11:31 * Sleeping_Nightmares purrs and snugglies into Finwe

11:31 <Sleeping_Nightmares> Nini!

11:31 <DashedRainbows> I good plushie

11:32 <Finwe> Schism: I have to admit that I have brutally neglected the raking today.

11:32 <ConfusionRift> Have a good one!

11:32 <Schism> Finwe: Alas!  If there's a forest fire, it's all your fault.

11:33 * DashedRainbows curls up on ConfusionRift and tries to sleep again

11:33 * ConfusionRift huggles DashedRainbows.

11:33 <Finwe> Some sources, though, have indentified this whole thing as rake news.

11:33 <Schism> Made up by a rake-onteur.

11:34 <DashedRainbows> Good night

11:34 <Finwe> Make America Rake Again

11:35 <Schism> Indeed.

11:35 <Finwe> Or was it "Rake America Great Again"?

11:37 <Schism> Whatever the case, unsurprisingly, Niinistö says the conversation never happened.

11:37 <Schism> At least, that part of it.

11:38 <Finwe> He had spoken with Trump about forestry, but not about raking.

11:38 <Schism> https://twitter.com/aaporau/status/1064245187277455366

11:38 <Finwe> Someone had photoshopped president Trump in this painting and added a rake in the end of the stick he's holding: https://static.mvlehti.net/uploads/2018/09/Nikolai-J%C3%A4rnefelt-Raatajat-rahanalaiset.png

11:40 * Cepheid hands Fined a rake.

11:41 <Finwe> Why did you fine it with your hands?

11:41 <Cepheid> ...  stupid autocorrect

11:41 <Cepheid> That was supposed to be Finwe.

11:41 <Finwe> o3o

11:42 * Finwe rakes like he's never raked before.

11:43 <Cepheid> So terribly and slowly?

11:43 <Finwe> Schism: I think that it is an abbreviation of Rakennuskeskus or something.

11:44 <Finwe> The company at least is a real estate business.

11:45 <Schism> Yes, that's the case there.

11:49 <RazorSharpFang> Seems like most people use a gas tank to fuel their metal melting furnaces.

11:50 * ConfusionRift nods. "Propaaaane."

11:51 <Cepheid> Guh my head huuurts.  Between finding myself constantly clenching my teeth, I have sore spots all over my head.

11:52 <Schism> Got any aspirin or advil?

11:53 <Cepheid> I took some aleve.

11:53 * Schism nods.

11:58 <Finwe> https://www.fireweatheravalanche.org/fire/

11:59 <Finwe> Looks like there is awfully lot of demand for raking.

12:03 <Schism> That's putting it lightly.

12:21 <Cepheid> Raking is supposed to be a preventative measure.  It won't do much against the fires.

12:22 <Cepheid> Also I don't feel too well.  I was crossing a street to get to my bus stop when I felt like I had literally just fallen asleep and awoke rapidly. o3o

12:30 <Schism> Oh... dear.  Microsleep...

12:31 <Finwe> I didn't know that Google had used dogsleighs in Street View.

12:36 <RazorSharpFang> Cut down all trees, salt the earth, burn everything flammable, and then you'll be safe from fires.

15:02 <Cepheid> I am being advised against taking a nap right now.

15:02 <Cepheid> There's apparently people going around trying to steal stuff.

15:02 <Finwe> o3o!

15:03 <Cepheid> So security is A)  Heightened, B)  Not allowing anyone to sleep on campus, and C)  Everywhere.

15:04 <Cepheid> So for the interim to my exam, I think I'll just stay awake and work on my assignment that's due tomorrow.  That I haven't started.

15:04 <Cepheid> ...

15:04 <Cepheid> Which, if I'm reading this correctly..

15:04 <Cepheid> Is 100% identical to the tutorial I did last Friday.

15:05 <Schism> Hmmm.

15:05 <Schism> I'd ping your prof on that and make sure of the situation.

15:06 <Cepheid> No, it's correct.

15:06 <Cepheid> She did this last assignment.

15:06 <Cepheid> Which means it amounts to about 1 hour worth of effort at best.

15:08 <Schism> I guess she's rewarding her students for actually doing the tutorials.

15:25 <Koopz> screw those guys saying that

15:25 <Koopz> i still stick with private

15:25 <Koopz> i also declare about 99% of my classes final

15:26 <Cepheid> This prof is... questionable, regarding her knowledge of C++.

15:27 <Cepheid> She abuses friendship in strange ways, insists on using classes everywhere, even when a struct might be more appropriate, and encapsulation is an arcane concept to her.

15:38 <Cepheid> That's C++.

15:38 <Koopz> each class in it's own file

15:42 <LibrarianofHope> its weird comunnism

15:42 <LibrarianofHope> ponyism

15:44 <Cepheid> We need a new word to describe socialism without using the word "socialism" because in North America(Some parts of Canada included), Socialism = Communism = THE RED PEOPLE! = EEEEEVIIIIILLLLL!

15:45 <Schism> "Making sure our citizens stay alive" seems like a pretty decent start.

15:54 <Cepheid> Schism:  All I'm gonna say on the topic of government is that we need it in some form.  People disagree with me of course, but it is a necessity in a group situation.  Even in the smallest of groups, one person is picked as the leader to lead the rest, and that is, in a sense, government.  Without it, we have anarchy, and people running up and down the streets killing whoever doesn't agree with their views.

15:56 <Schism> There was a discussion about libertarianism I had the other day, when it was agreed that it sounded like a perfectly ideal system for groups of less than two.

15:57 <RazorSharpFang> less than two? So, one?

15:57 <Cepheid> The reality is, as the "group" of individuals gets larger and larger, one or more leaders, and some sort of governance is required to coordinate things.

15:58 <RazorSharpFang> Cepheid, the other reality is that certain kinds of structures function better over time than other kinds of structures.

15:58 <Cepheid> Mmhmm.

15:58 <LibrarianofHope> i believe in equilibrium, everyone exercises their abilities and is free within their abilities and capacity

15:58 <Cepheid> I'm relating more to anarchists.

15:58 <RazorSharpFang> And different kinds of structures behave differently at different population scales either.

15:58 <Cepheid> Of which seems to be a growing movement.

18:48 <Cepheid> http://www.scp-wiki.net/scp-foundation-gripe-sheet I'd write off the first one as a joke if it was not for the fact that I see that problem every bleedin' day.  Students who cannot use the card readers properly.  It is not rocket science!

18:51 <Cepheid> "Near containment breach due to rollie chair."

18:52 <Cepheid> "New mop given to another janitor that doesn't attempt to subdue an SCP with a mop"

18:54 <Schism> It can be both a joke /and/ an honest complaint.  (It can also be both a floor wax and a dessert topping.)

19:00 <Schism> I just wanna bang on my drum all day.

19:09 <Schism> "Door to containment cell Y-88 makes a funny noise."

19:18 <ADragonDreaming> Schism: found myself bored with the single-planet challenge

19:27 <Schism> Oh?

19:27 * Schism also blehs.

19:27 <ADragonDreaming> Yeah... I like the colonizing and expansion and etc.

19:28 <ADragonDreaming> To keep the single-planet thing, I have to give up any conquered planets as vassals.

19:32 <Schism> Yeah, it's a long slog to start out, until you get the tech required to steamroll everything.

22:52 <Cepheid> It is a good way to start a fire or get killed.

22:55 <PinkieShy> plus it don't go up all the way like it used to..

23:05 <Cepheid> One of those sliding/rotating switches for lights?

23:05 <PinkieShy> Nope just one of the regular old basic kind.

23:07 *** Quits: Mpon (Mpon@Pony-s3c3bt.business.telecomitalia.it) (Ping timeout: 121 seconds)

23:08 <Cepheid> Hmm.  Yeah that switch probably needs to be replaced then.  The noise is probably sparking.  Not unheard of, but if it is frequent it should be looked into.  Plus it doesn't sound like it is latching very well if it "don't go up all the way like it used to."

23:09 <PinkieShy> Cepheid if the sparking got to bad the ground wire should trip the breaker right?

23:09 <PinkieShy> Hmm Imma going to google and ask what is the point of ground wire on light switch :3

23:10 <PinkieShy> googled and got answers :) With an ordinary toggle switch like the ones on the right, the ground wire is strictly a safety feature. If you flip a switch with wet hands, having a ground connection reduces the chance of you shocking yourself

23:15 <Cepheid> I am no authority on electrical stuff.  You are better off asking someone else, or yes, searching.
