| 02:03.20 | Vincent20100 | Spent whole day cooking freaking potatoes |
| 02:03.27 | Vincent20100 | 10 whole bags of them... |
| 02:03.55 | DrodoEmpire | Well Knight, "What a day" can be followed by anything from "I've been crowned Emperor for life!" to "I got mugged by rabid honeybadgers!" |
| 02:03.58 | Knight_Alien | We were talking about Potatoes on the Irc XD |

| 02:29.39 | DrodoEmpire | Yeah, same. |
| 02:30.12 | Knight_Alien | I think what happens is that they watch Anime and just overall stuff of Japan and they cloud themselves with it. |

| 02:31.54 | DrodoEmpire | No, not literally |
| 02:32.04 | DrodoEmpire | They just think katanas are the best swords on earth |
| 02:32.25 | DrodoEmpire | They're fairly good swords and effective for what they do; But they're no match for European armour. |
| 02:32.37 | DrodoEmpire | *for what they're up against |
| 02:32.55 | Knight_Alien | oh. |

| 18:07.24 | Monet | According ti wikipedia (so don't quote me) there are only about a million of them |
| 18:12.05 | Monet | So I guess MBFAGW may come across as one of these esoteric culture shows (i'm guessing) wheras in the UK it's yet another reality TV serial |
| 18:14.11 | Monet | Also I find it funny how the British version of 10 Years Younger is about economic, simple and manageable ways to look younger than you are, while the US version goes for the full plastic surgery package. |
| 18:15.28 | Monet | So while the UK version uses beauty tricks for the common woman, the American version is a money-no-object show. WHich I guess could potentialyl reflect the attitudes of their respective media cultures. |

| 20:28.18 | Wormy_ | If its hydrogen gas being collected |
| 20:28.33 | Xho | https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ni0VlWPQadQ&feature=youtu.be I got bored again so I made this |
| 20:28.47 | Xho | What I basically had in mind for that track is whatever anyone hears when Caligaduro is present |
| 20:29.00 | Monet_ | Wouldn't hydrogen be sparser in the intergalactic medium than in galactic space? |
| 20:29.53 | Wormy_ | But David Deutsch said there is enough in a cubic light year to build a space station (using fusion reactor to transmutate elements) and build a space station for scientists. Resources are plentiful, but knowledge is scarce |
| 20:30.21 | Wormy_ | Though that isn't relevant, I find that interesting |
| 20:30.27 | Monet_ | The visualisation I have of mining ops in the IG void is panning for gold in a river miles from civilisation when there's a big gold vein that is much closer. |
| 20:30.36 | Wormy_ | Of course |
| 20:31.23 | Monet_ | Although maybe this could be a plot point? Not every exploratve venture has to be a roaring success. |
| 20:31.27 | Wormy_ | These intergalactic rifts would have to contain an exotic material that is not only extractable but also economically viable |
| 20:31.54 | Catface | Xho: Sounds like someone with sleep apnea. |
| 20:32.08 | Xho | hur |
| 20:33.25 | Monet_ | Galaxies are large. Thing is, the gap between Andromeda (the *closest* proper galaxy to ours) and the MW is 2.5 *million* light years. |
| 20:33.51 | Monet_ | That is a hell of a lot of ground to cover. |
| 20:34.40 | Monet_ | Its about 25x the diameter of the milky way with perhaps 1000th of the star density. |
| 20:34.46 | Wormy_ | Monet_ Technically, any resource in which one is confident of and yet is viable (easy) to extract can be economical http://www.endomines.com/images/jorcresourcesandreserves.jpg |
| 20:35.23 | Wormy_ | If the resource doesn't uccur much in galaxies it might well be "mined" |

| 20:37.50 | Monet_ | Hi |
| 20:38.22 | Wormy_ | Well |
| 20:39.07 | Wormy_ | I don't think it should be too difficult |
| 20:39.28 | Wormy_ | Soon it will be possible to extract Rare Earth elements from asteroids |
| 20:39.57 | Monet_ | Its the distance that concerns me |
| 20:40.06 | Wormy_ | And the abundance of such elements in the Crust is comparatively scarce |
| 20:41.13 | Wormy_ | Again, if its just hydrogen gas we are talking about, then yeah, using intergalactic space as a resource is a silly idea. |
| 20:42.11 | Ghelae | Yes, intergalactic space is practically empty, economically speaking. |
| 20:42.31 | Ghelae | The "intergalactic rifts" containing useful material are just SporeWiki fiction. |
| 20:42.37 | Wormy_ | The degree of resource confidence would be low given its poor measure |
| 20:43.35 | Monet_ | So we have two options: One is a we add a super-rare wooden-needle-in-a-field compound that makes the whole thing viable, or we stick to simpler elements like oxygen and hydrogen making up the medium and perhaps make it open to exploring when an exonomic venture doesn't go all hunky-dory. |
| 20:43.39 | Wormy_ | There are minerals reserves in the Earth's crust which are simply unviable to extract |
| 20:44.21 | Wormy_ | Maybe it has a negative energy that is repelled from galaxies? |
| 20:44.44 | Ghelae | If we don't have the equivalence principle, sure. |
| 20:44.46 | Wormy_ | Of course, it would have to be strong enough to escape the positive gravitational force |
| 20:45.13 | Ghelae | If it's attracted by gravitational fields, what repels it? |
| 20:45.34 | Wormy_ | Could it be self-interacting? Thus repelling itself? |
| 20:45.42 | Wormy_ | Or is that nonsense |
| 20:45.59 | Wormy_ | I've heard of self-interactions mentioned in particle physics |
| 20:46.19 | Ghelae | Like electrical charges repel each other, but that doesn't cause them to disperse into intergalactic space. |
| 20:46.30 | Monet_ | I've tried indicating before that modern science has gone past the age-old exploration philosophy of "best way to explore viably is to go there" that sci-fi like Star Trek was built on. |
| 20:47.01 | Ghelae | Of course, that's partly because there are opposite charges too. But the principle still applies that it shouldn't make the matter more dense outside of galaxies. |
| 20:47.09 | Wormy_ | The best way to colonise space is to use self-replicating machines to do the work for you |
| 20:47.45 | Monet_ | So sending manned ships or even probes controlled fro mhome to explore the IG medium is perhaps an outdated way of working. |
| 20:48.21 | Monet_ | For one here on Earth we're estimating the makeup and atmospheric environment of planets tens of light-years away. |

| 20:50.51 | drom | Guten tag |
| 20:51.17 | Monet_ | Star Trek may have popularised the idea of exploring space, but that doesn't mean we have to forever follow Star Trek's method. As Wormy suggested ,what about Von Neumann probes? |
| 20:51.47 | Monet_ | OKay more accurately Apollo 11 popularised the idea |
| 20:52.16 | Ghelae | Probes make more sense for exploration. They're less fragile than humans. |
| 20:53.09 | Monet_ | But Star Trek was a big help in this idea of exploring space in a purpose-designed vessel full of crew. Probably because several high-ups liked the idea of a drama series set in deep space. |
| 20:53.19 | Catface | Ghelae: But less fun! I mean, do probes cry and beg for mercy when you threaten to skin them alive? |
| 20:53.41 | Ghelae | Catface: No, which is why TV series tend to be about crewed spaceships instead of probes. |

| 20:54.51 | drom | Probes are automations too, automations do lack intellectual senses and capacities as what humans and other sentients do. |
| 20:55.08 | TekDroid | Not necessarily |
| 20:55.30 | Monet_ | drom: I say it depends on the intelligence inside |
| 20:55.45 | Catface | Basically what it comes down to is probes are less fun to tell stories with. |
| 20:55.51 | Monet_ | One could easily fit an AI or swarm intelligence inside. |
| 20:56.20 | Monet_ | Catface: Its still possible, maybe by focusing more on what the probe finds and how local aliens interact with it? |
| 20:57.14 | Monet_ | For a long time TV and film used humans or humanlikes as the main cast so the audience could relate and metaphorically insert themselves withi nthe setting. |
| 20:57.25 | Catface | Monet_: Good point. |
| 20:58.32 | Monet_ | Its one of the possible reasons why SUperman was so generic: So kids in the 30s and 40s could imagine themselves growing up to be him (if I recall, originally he wasn't an alien, or had much backstory apart from being a homegrown kid) |
| 20:59.05 | Monet_ | Metropolis could have been any major city that the reader happened to live in or want to live in. |
| 20:59.12 | Xho | Murica powers |
| 20:59.14 | Xho | Now ded |
| 20:59.24 | Xho | Actually no, no ded |
| 20:59.58 | Catface | Personally I do prefer manned exploration missions. Though, I don't see any reason why you couldn't combine the two. Like...have the probes go on first and then send a manned expedition to servery the areas closer. |
| 21:00.22 | Monet_ | So like how Mars has been explored? |
| 21:00.26 | Catface | Monet_: Comic books were an escape for kids during the great depression. |
| 21:00.29 | Catface | Yeah. |
| 21:01.00 | Monet_ | Sending probes up is 1/100th of the price of sending a person up |
| 21:01.02 | Ghelae | Also, sending humans into space is still useful (although not actually necessary) for colonisation. If they colonise a habitable planet, they could explore it in the old-fashioned way (or any number of ways) then. |
| 21:01.37 | Wormy_ | Humans DO need to colonise space, I'm certainly not denying it. But Von Nuemann machines would be very useful tool |
| 21:01.46 | Monet_ | I'm not saying we completely ditch the idea of manned exploration. I was merely pointing out that these days its not the only way to explore. |
| 21:02.17 | Wormy_ | Its possible too, that such machines could contain human minds... |
| 21:02.21 | Monet_ | Back in the Star Trek era, they didn't have stuff like Gravity Probe B, Kepler or Hubble. |
| 21:02.26 | Ghelae | If you don't send humans for colonisation, you'll probably still either grow them from scratch or download personalities into replicated bodies. They can still explore the planet later, but it'll probably take longer before they're able to. |
| 21:02.41 | Wormy_ | If the consensus about Strong Ai is correct. |
| 21:03.07 | Ghelae | Wormy_: Of course, the logical conclusion of this is human (or human-like) consciousnesses inside utility fog-like clouds. |
| 21:03.27 | Monet_ | Sending out a manned spaceship, in the wake of the Apollo Program, made a lot of sense to viewers at the time even if it used space magic to travel light years in minutes. |
| 21:03.51 | Wormy_ | I want to be be turned into one |
| 21:04.09 | Ghelae | Although as far as stories are concerned, this takes away some of the drama, in that even if all of the foglets are destroyed, the explorer will probably still survive in some form (like a central processing unit somewhere safe). |
| 21:04.21 | Monet_ | This may sound a bit goofy but the original Enterprise DID indicate we'd still have cathode ray screens by the 2200s. |
| 21:04.56 | Wormy_ | Science fiction writers will just have to find new plots |
| 21:05.03 | Monet_ | Even though the ISS is decked out with flatscreens. |
| 21:05.30 | Wormy_ | Maybe we could find a way to damatise floglet men |
| 21:05.38 | Wormy_ | foglet men |
| 21:06.54 | Catface | Wormy_: Space is explored by large swarms of nanites with hyperspace capabilities. |
| 21:08.00 | Monet_ | I think this goof can be boiled down to the scope of vision and cultural perceptions at the time - something that will always be the case with authors: Automatic doors, antimatter and faster-than-light travel were amazing must-have ideas. But Flatscreens? A wireless PC (with screen) the size of your palm? Back the nthat was -really- pie-in-the-sky. |
| 21:08.37 | Wormy_ | Catface: Of course, the aliens are all around us |
| 21:09.33 | Hachiman | The Nostramo in the original Alien movie had a lot of 70s/80s aspects to it |
| 21:09.44 | Hachiman | Like the computer screens, floppy discs, etc |
| 21:09.46 | Monet_ | I recall that in 1893, U.S. Postmaster General John Wanamaker predicted that mail would still be delivered by stagecoach. |
| 21:10.05 | Monet_ | Hachiman: Those two things being largely extinct in the modern office |
| 21:10.05 | Hachiman | Coffee makers and stuff rather than replication technology |
| 21:10.20 | Ghelae | I'm going to go now. Bye! |
| 21:10.22 | Wormy_ | Actually its like the Fermi Paradox, all it takes is one species to create von numenann machines that eventually spread close to the speed of light, and the galaxy should have been swamped millions even billions of years ago |
| 21:10.25 | Monet_ | Well, the computer screens at the time, which only had green text |
| 21:10.41 | *** part/#sporewiki Ghelae (05970017@gateway/web/freenode/ip.5.151.0.23) |
| 21:11.00 | Xho | Is it me or is Oluap being moody again |
| 21:11.13 | Monet_ | Wanamaker's statement howeve,r neglected the thought of vehicles going fown roads and not being powered by horses. |
| 21:11.30 | Hachiman | He's not had a good day |
| 21:11.39 | Xho | explain dis shi |
| 21:12.02 | Hachiman | His manager was on break and his colleague went off sick so he's had to deal with answering phones all day and a load of computers he doesn't know what to do with because he doesn't know what's wrong with them |
| 21:12.15 | Catface | I just go with what makes the best story. *shrugs* |
| 21:12.30 | Xho | Right |
| 21:12.33 | Hachiman | So he's been alone all day and if anything went wrong in the office it would most likely be pinned on him |
| 21:12.38 | Catface | Of course, that doesn't mean you should throw logic/sense out the window. |
| 21:13.20 | Hachiman | And now he's gotta go do college |
| 21:13.56 | Monet_ | Which circles back to my concern earlier: Exploring the intergalactic medium for viable resources without considering the logistical and distance issues. |
| 21:14.07 | Monet_ | Or if you would find anything of value |
| 21:14.31 | Monet_ | that couldn't easily be found in a galaxy |
| 21:15.27 | Catface | Monet_: Governments could always use criminals to explore those areas as, like, a pardon or something. |
| 21:15.46 | Monet_ | I recall that's what the UED tried in StarCraft. |
| 21:16.36 | Monet_ | Unfortunately those exploration ships got lost and over 500 years the colonists spread out amongs the Koprulu sector without any word form Earth. |
| 21:16.51 | Catface | I don't know anything about Starcraft lore. |
| 21:16.58 | Monet_ | And fought the UED when they arrived, |
| 21:17.07 | Monet_ | UED = United Earth Directorate |
| 21:17.13 | Catface | Still, it could make for interesting stories. |
| 21:17.14 | Catface | k |
| 21:17.47 | Monet_ | Ehh convict labour I guess it depends on the culture |
| 21:18.13 | Catface | ULE would do it. |
| 21:18.29 | Catface | They work their criminals until they die. |
| 21:18.46 | Monet_ | England isn't a country that uses penal labour so I don't know much of the nuances of it. |
| 21:19.16 | Monet_ | Like the feelings of the working convicts or how likely they are to escape |
| 21:19.24 | Catface | lolpenal |
| 21:21.02 | TekDroid | Well you guys did have a penal continent. :P |
| 21:21.23 | Catface | More like a penile continent. |
| 21:21.28 | Monet_ | Yeah but Austrailia was more of a case of getting rid of the "undesireables". |
| 21:21.34 | Catface | doesn't know what he is getting at. |
| 21:22.02 | Catface | That's kind of the case with the ULE and penal labor. |
| 21:22.13 | Catface | And stuff. |
| 21:22.58 | Monet_ | But penal labour in England and Wales was abolished in 1948 |
| 21:23.53 | Catface | It was abolished in the US in 1927. Of course, the private prison system is working around the laws. |
| 21:23.56 | Catface | Anyways. |
| 21:24.14 | Catface | I wish that I had time to write about the ULE slave culture. |
| 21:24.18 | Monet_ | Yeah here in England passing an act of penal laabour is impossible. |
| 21:25.10 | Monet_ | No prblic system, no private workaround. England simply does not force its criminals to work anymore. |
| 21:25.45 | Catface | Do you think they should? |
| 21:25.51 | Catface | Within reason, of course. |
| 21:26.15 | Monet_ | I prefer erhabilitation. Its slave labour of registered citizens otherwise. |

| 21:44.15 | Wormy_ | I like it when in le Tour de France, one rider punched some idiot who was standing out on the road |
| 21:44.28 | Wormy_ | taking a selfish selfie |
| 21:44.52 | Wormy_ | Now I saw some news featuring a selfie |
| 21:45.16 | Knight_Alien | Selfies are stupid I believe. |
| 21:45.30 | Wormy_ | To be fair, it was a selfie of a Peregrine Falcon but it certainly didn't mean to take it |
| 21:47.49 | Wormy_ | You know sometimes I feel a bit behind techwise. I only use my phone as a phone, despite its smart features (and its old anyway by some years), I really don't care for smart phones or the latest gaming shitbox |
| 21:48.20 | Wormy_ | And many of these social networking fads really don't interest me |
| 21:48.28 | Wormy_ | Nor does facebook interest me much |
| 21:49.18 | Knight_Alien | It is a follow the leader thing and it is stupid. |
