| 01:38.59 | Tek0516 | f*** f*** f***. Overheating continues, fix supposed to be "by the end of the night". Meanwhile rooms are exceeding 32°C. |
| 01:40.48 | DrodoEmpire_ | Ouch |
| 01:45.29 | Tek0516 | sticks an ice pac on the thermostat |
| 01:51.01 | OfficerJackal | Tek0516: That's genius, if you lower the temperature of the thermostat with that ice pack, the heat in the room will go down! |
| 01:52.10 | DrodoEmpire_ | :O |
| 01:52.32 | Tek0516 | OfficerJackal: In all seriousness, in my case it would help. My room is this hot because the heater thinks it is AC. So I just need to make the thermostat think it doesn't need the AC. |
| 01:53.39 | Tek0516 | TL;DR thermostat making it hotter to try and make it cooler. |
| 01:53.56 | OfficerJackal | :o |
| 01:54.27 | Tek0516 | If I could fool the sensor the AC would turn off and it would cool. >.> |
| 01:55.56 | OfficerJackal | Makes sense. XD |
| 02:01.03 | Tek0516 | I just have no idea where the sensor(s) arem |
| 02:04.38 | OfficerJackal | Do you know what model the Thermostat is? |
| 02:04.44 | OfficerJackal | Like, what company it comes from? |
| 02:05.40 | DrodoEmpire_ | The one that adjusts the heat. |
| 02:06.02 | Tek0516 | Delta DNT-T305-G1B. Found the model online earlier. |
| 02:06.22 | Tek0516 | It's the building that f***ed up though |

| 13:15.41 | Ghel | I'm okay; today I've been making flapjacks for Wednesday afternoon, when I'm going to be presenting the work of my summer project at a stand in the maths building. I have a feeling I'm going to be next to "hydrodynamic simulations of black holes", so I'll need something to make my own work look more interesting. :P |
| 13:15.46 | Ghel | And how are you? |
| 13:16.10 | Ghel | TekDroid_: You have closed your fridge and freezer now, right? |

| 13:25.09 | Ghel | dino82_: The summer project was ten weeks, but since I didn't have anything to do it wasn't too difficult. Although two weeks before the end I discovered that last year's summer student, who also worked on the same project, made an elementary mistake when deriving the main equation I used for all my work. |
| 13:25.18 | Ghel | didn't have anything else to do* |
| 13:25.42 | Ghel | Fortunately, it didn't make much difference to my final results so I didn't have to redo everything. |
| 13:26.25 | Ghel | As for the poster that will be included at my presentation... we were told we were supposed to make it a few weeks ago. The deadline was this Wednesday. I started it on Monday afternoon and finished on Tuesday. So I ran quite close to the deadline there. |
| 13:27.00 | dino82_ | @Ghel: Phew, better you didnt had to redo anything, that would have been a lot of work then? |
| 13:27.13 | dino82_ | Oh haha close run in! |
| 13:27.47 | Ghel | I could have redone everything in a couple of days. It would just have been a couple of days of working very hard. |
| 13:28.07 | Liquid_Ink | Xho, if I understand correctly the Xhodocto would not have been active 20 million years ago, right? |
| 13:28.22 | Xho | Depends on your view what the Xhodocto were doing |
| 13:29.47 | Liquid_Ink | I was just making a precursor race to give some history to my region and thought I could include the Xhodocto in the relations thing but then remembered the nuiances of their being sealed away by the other guys |
| 13:30.13 | Xho | Updated canon indicates they weren't sealed away |
| 13:30.18 | Xho | But they weren't active |
| 13:30.35 | Xho | I should really create an updated canon brief |
| 13:30.49 | Hachiman | Ngh I need Halloween costume ideas for a party coming up at the end of the month |
| 13:30.59 | Xho | Go as yourself because you're scary enough as it is |
| 13:31.13 | Xho | Sorry that was an immediate opporunity for abuse and I took it |
| 13:31.27 | Ghel | Isn't it Zhuleshxi who was sealed away now? |
| 13:31.28 | Hachiman | hur |
| 13:31.37 | Xho | Zhuleshxi sealed himself away |
| 13:31.52 | Xho | But he still wasn't active 20 million years ago |
| 13:31.54 | Wormy_ | I once dressed up as a Borg drone. |
| 13:32.11 | Xho | I once dressed up as a serial killer but it just turned out to be me in a suit |
| 13:32.29 | Xho | And a vampire |
| 13:33.25 | Liquid_Ink | I wasn't going to mention the Xhodocto in general but specifically refer to each of them being regarded differently by this civilisation |
| 13:34.41 | Hachiman | The local pub is hosting a party on Halloween night alongside a death metal lineup, with shots for £1 and cocktails for £4 |
| 13:35.10 | Xho | Shots for £1 |
| 13:35.14 | Xho | Dangerous offer |
| 13:35.30 | Wormy_ | The shots will probably be some cheap punch |
| 13:35.39 | Hachiman | The fact the pub is going to remain open until 3AM does not help much |
| 13:35.47 | Xho | u gon knok urself out |
| 13:36.10 | Xho | Shot tips: Maintain distance from everyone else in the event someone can't down their shots |
| 13:36.29 | Hachiman | Been there |
| 13:36.30 | Xho | Has saved my skin many times |
| 13:36.34 | Wormy_ | Also, you might get pulled into drinking games |
| 13:37.20 | Wormy_ | so much saliva was shared on that day err |
| 13:37.45 | Wormy_ | playing roulette with a shot glass |
| 13:38.13 | Hachiman | Eh, drinking games aren't new to me |
| 13:38.58 | Technobliterator | You could create an updated canon brief...and you could also...rewrite the War of Ages |

| 13:39.22 | Technobliterator | If I can rewrite the Ottzello wars, you can too! |
| 13:39.28 | Wormy_ | And two others which open the door to a secret knock |
| 13:39.44 | OluapPlayer | You struggled to write sections about Loron killing people |
| 13:39.52 | OluapPlayer | War of Ages is slightly bigger than that |
| 13:40.02 | Hachiman | The pubs in my area are very metal-oriented, not ideally a place for casual hangouts on a weekend |
| 13:40.10 | Hachiman | Oh it's also bonfire night in my area tonight so |
| 13:40.20 | Technobliterator | This is true |
| 13:40.30 | Technobliterator | But I struggled to write it because some of them were boring |
| 13:40.36 | Technobliterator | while no War of Ages sections are boring |
| 13:41.29 | Hachiman | Probably not going to drink much tonight since I need to save for a new headset and other luxuries and necessities, such as, you know, food |

| 17:36.53 | DrodoEmpire | Hellrock: Well I'd say first thing to do is to actually plan things out |
| 17:37.04 | DrodoEmpire | Its really important to talk things out in advance |
| 17:37.30 | DrodoEmpire | In my experience fictions are rarely things you just sorta jump in to; They can be quite an investment of time |

| 17:40.14 | Hellrock | So I'm in the C2 of the Carina arm. |
| 17:43.19 | Hellrock | In my writing, the pilot is pretty much about having first experience in the First Gigaquadrant, by getting beaten up by mediocre ships. |
| 17:45.26 | OfficerJackal | Hmm, so is he independent then, or is he part of an organization? |
| 17:46.02 | Hellrock | Wait, what does that mean? |
| 17:46.34 | DrodoEmpire | Is he working on the behalf of a nation or other group? |
| 17:46.41 | OfficerJackal | Like, does he operate on his own, not connected to any organizations like governments or corporations or other entities o- Yeah, basically. |
| 17:46.43 | DrodoEmpire | Like is he an ambassador? A military commander? |
| 17:46.54 | DrodoEmpire | A head of state? |

| 21:33.47 | ImpyDroid | processes Freedom(TM) into ÐÐСТ FreedomForRussianMinorities and proceeds to spew it at Tybusen calling thousands of not-Russian troops to not-attack Tybusen |

| 21:42.26 | ImpyDroid | <PROTECTED> |
| 21:42.38 | Tybusen | points out the flaw in ImpyDroid's plan as the army of Donald Trumps simply build an impenetrable wall between the US and Russia |
| 21:42.49 | The_Randomness | <PROTECTED> |
| 21:43.21 | Tybusen | Donald Trump actually compared his wall plan to the Great Wall of China |
| 21:43.32 | Tybusen | He says the Great Wall did a good job of "keeping the immigrants out" |
| 21:43.42 | The_Randomness | Seriously? |
| 21:44.05 | Tybusen | Unfortunately that is more or less a direct quote |
| 21:44.07 | ImpyDroid | Gengez El Khan |
| 21:44.29 | ImpyDroid | He will breach the walls |
| 21:44.42 | TekDroid | The entire Republican party is crazy. I saw one guy tried to claim education was better in the 1830s. O.o |
| 21:44.44 | The_Randomness | Trump being classy as usual |
| 21:45.02 | The_Randomness | Well, in general, Republican politicians are especially crazy today |
| 21:45.07 | Tybusen | ImpyDroid: I believe you mean Cesar Gengez de la Khan |
| 21:45.17 | The_Randomness | Since Gingrich basically purged the moderates from the party a while ago |
| 21:45.43 | TekDroid | I swear literally all of their candidates are crazy. |
| 21:45.51 | Tybusen | Actually, I've seen more people point to gerrymandering as the reason why the Republican party is now such a mess |
| 21:46.09 | The_Randomness | That hasn't helped things either |
| 21:46.16 | The_Randomness | The party itself is also divided in itself |
| 21:46.17 | Tybusen | Since by concentrating all of the Republican voters into a district they also concentrated the loonies into a district |
| 21:46.44 | The_Randomness | The Tea Party is unfortunately one of the more powerful/vocal powers within the party itself |
| 21:47.44 | Quark8 | So... |
| 21:47.54 | Quark8 | Go Hillary? |
| 21:48.05 | The_Randomness | Hillary/Bernie for me |
| 21:48.05 | Tybusen | I find it sad how far the Republican Party has gone since I do think that America still needs some conservative voice to rein in any possible overextension of the government that might result from unchecked liberalism |
| 21:48.38 | Tybusen | Bernie's my man, though I suppose Hillary will be fine if I end up having no choice |
| 21:48.56 | ImpyDroid | Hillary wants to fight us which is logical for you but hardly fun for us hur |
| 21:48.57 | Monet_2 | Dunno if the Tea Party is powerful but it certainly it loud. |
| 21:49.12 | Monet_2 | is loud* |
| 21:49.15 | Monet_2 | There is a difference. |
| 21:49.19 | The_Randomness | True |
| 21:49.27 | ImpyDroid | Generally she seems a nice fellow though |
| 21:49.52 | TekDroid | All I know is that every major Republican candidate seems to be one of the Tea Party crazies. |
| 21:50.02 | Tybusen | Monet_2: The Tea Party actually does have large influence now that a lot of their members have seats in Congress. It's the reason why the Repubs are so far right now |
| 21:50.23 | Tybusen | TekDroid: Not only that, but the moderates have to shift right to even compete with the Tea Party types |
| 21:51.37 | TekDroid | That's what I'm hearing |

| 21:56.06 | dinoman9877 | The false dinoman, yay! <_> |
| 21:56.12 | Tybusen | A lot of it is the GOP establishment's own fault for 1.) not taking the Tea Party seriously as a political threat and 2.) gerrymandering the districts such that they now have to lean even further right just to win |
| 21:56.18 | Tybusen | Hello |
| 21:56.35 | dinoman9877 | And I have one question and one question only. Did EA take the Spore servers down? |
| 21:56.59 | Tybusen | Supposedly they're working on it |
| 21:57.07 | dinoman9877 | Supposedly. |
| 21:57.26 | dinoman9877 | I tried like, three months ago and couldn't connect then. |
| 21:58.00 | Tybusen | It's EA, so this is mostly within my expectations |
| 21:58.36 | dinoman9877 | It's not within my expectations. They haven't tried to charge us for every creation downloaded, claiming it as DLC |
| 21:59.30 | Tybusen | well technically it is DLC |
| 21:59.39 | Tybusen | since it's content that you download |
| 22:00.00 | dinoman9877 | But not official, developer made content. :3 |
| 22:00.20 | Tybusen | Come to think of it, from day one, one of Spore's biggest draws was essentially "free DLC" |
| 22:00.59 | dinoman9877 | And Spore would've died faster than Evolve did if EA ever tried. |

| 22:04.44 | Tybusen | Which means it's more of a matter of getting the right Dem candidate to the general |
| 22:04.47 | Tybusen | aka bernie |
| 22:04.51 | Technobliterator | This mainly matters to me because I'm going to live in the States in a few year's time |
| 22:05.06 | Tybusen | Really? Where? |
| 22:05.39 | Technobliterator | Most likely San Francisco, since that's where I'm most likely to get a job |
| 22:05.55 | Tybusen | Oh nice |
| 22:06.26 | Tybusen | Just a warning though that there's a lot of homeless in SF and the city is starting to get very gentrified |
| 22:06.52 | Technobliterator | Yeah, I've been there when Wikia invited me to their office |
| 22:07.02 | Tek0516 | O.o |
| 22:07.36 | Tybusen | It's mostly because of higher-income Silicon Valley workers living in SF that the gentrification is intensifying |
| 22:08.06 | Technobliterator | Mhm |
| 22:08.22 | Technobliterator | I know Naughty Dog are based in SF as well |

| 22:17.56 | Xho | So it's not an urbanised death trap like London |
| 22:18.47 | Xho | London's like New York in the aspect of having a massive green area enclosed in a city five times its size |
| 22:19.04 | Tybusen | Is the transit in Southampton "terrifying" in the sense of "shit-tier quality" terrifying or "holy shit I think I'm gonna die on this train" terrifying |
| 22:19.13 | Xho | Shit tier quality |
| 22:19.33 | Xho | I've never feared for my life safety wise |
| 22:19.45 | Xho | Though Southampton is notoriously dangerous for violence |
| 22:20.07 | Xho | A couple of my friends were subject to a random beating on a night out |
| 22:20.39 | Xho | The attackers thought one of my friends was Pakistani, he's actually Zimbabwean |
| 22:20.45 | Xho | Just goes to show how dim some people are here |
| 22:21.10 | Tybusen | There's idiots like that everywhere though |
| 22:21.18 | Xho | True |
| 22:21.28 | Xho | Southampton has a much higher crime rate for violence than the average though |
| 22:21.53 | Xho | National average is 16.7 per 100,000 |
| 22:22.02 | Xho | Southampton is 42.4 per 100,000 |
| 22:22.07 | Tybusen | jfc |
| 22:22.08 | DrodoEmpire | Jesus christ |
| 22:22.20 | Xho | There's 250,000 people living in this city as well |
| 22:22.27 | DrodoEmpire | How do you assault four-tenths of a person!? |
| 22:22.30 | DrodoEmpire | <.< |
| 22:23.03 | Tybusen | DrodoEmpire: That's easy, you rip off four-tenths of their body and beat it with a copper pipe |
| 22:23.12 | DrodoEmpire | Oh right |
| 22:23.13 | Xho | I think it was reported that there's 202 crimes for every 1000 people in Southampton |
| 22:23.15 | DrodoEmpire | Pretty brutal |
| 22:23.25 | Xho | Sounds about right |
| 22:23.42 | Xho | Pretty much everyone I know has broken the law in some way |
| 22:23.51 | Xho | Or been subject to criminal offence |
| 22:24.12 | Tybusen | DrodoEmpire: http://i.imgur.com/XgCq6NU.png |
| 22:24.19 | DrodoEmpire | olol |
| 22:24.20 | Xho | Basically don't go out alone in Southampton because there is a significant chance you will get fucked up |
| 22:25.12 | DrodoEmpire | Sounds like Halifax but worse |
| 22:25.28 | Xho | The North is safer than the South from what I gather |
| 22:25.32 | Xho | Except from Manchester |
| 22:25.38 | Xho | Manchester is doom on the streets |
| 22:26.02 | Xho | But that being said the concentration of population is much higher in the south |
| 22:26.56 | Xho | On an unrelated note I saw an article on Twitter the other day that had Martin Vargic on it |
| 22:26.58 | Xho | Or 9988 on the wiki |
| 22:27.09 | Xho | Guy's getting pretty famous on the internet now |
| 22:27.16 | Tybusen | Yeah apparently 9988 makes a lot of cool maps |
| 22:27.36 | DrodoEmpire | Really? |
| 22:28.04 | Xho | Yep |
| 22:28.05 | Tybusen | I think he was the one who made that iconic image of the internet as a world map |
| 22:28.08 | Xho | He was |
| 22:29.16 | Tybusen | His website is called "Halcyon Maps" |
| 22:54.24 | DrodoEmpire | test |
| 23:04.47 | ImpyDroid | Xho: How can you mix a Paki with a Zimbabwean |
| 23:05.04 | Xho | >paki |
| 23:05.12 | DrodoEmpire | test |
| 23:05.53 | ImpyDroid | And yes why is Paki offensive in the first place |
| 23:06.06 | ImpyDroid | Doesn't that means pure or something in Urdu |
| 23:07.07 | ImpyDroid | Did I just break Xho? |
| 23:08.06 | DrodoEmpire | I'm pretty sure its offensive because its a diminutive of Pakistani. :p |
| 23:08.47 | ImpyDroid | Yes but Pakistani means "Pure land" |
| 23:08.52 | Wormy_away | So I found this shitty site which charges itself with its own criticism http://www.skepticalaboutskeptics.org/ |
| 23:09.12 | DrodoEmpire | Impy: Racial slurs do not have to or often do make sense. :p |
| 23:09.14 | ImpyDroid | Like in most cases you get the name of the ethnicity of people from the stsnd |
| 23:09.16 | ImpyDroid | stans |
| 23:09.25 | ImpyDroid | By taking the Stan out of it |
| 23:09.35 | DrodoEmpire | Most people don't know that or care to know. |
| 23:09.38 | ImpyDroid | So Kazakhs live in Kazakhstan |
| 23:09.52 | DrodoEmpire | Its *intended* as a diminutive. |
| 23:09.55 | Wormy_away | "Skeptical About Skeptics is dedicated to countering dogmatic, ill informed attacks leveled by self-styled skeptics on pioneering scientific research and researchers." |
| 23:10.14 | ImpyDroid | Actually wait we have an ethnic slur like that too |
| 23:10.23 | ImpyDroid | We call Dagestanis "dags" |
| 23:10.43 | Wormy_away | The site makes an attack on parallel universes that arise in quantum physics, which is such an ill informed leveled attack based on their common sense view |
| 23:11.29 | Wormy_away | http://www.skepticalaboutskeptics.org/investigating-skeptics/whos-who-of-media-skeptics/media-skeptics-a-l/deutsch-david/ |
| 23:12.34 | Wormy_away | I've read David Deutsch's book and he makes a sound argument based on what quantum theory is actually telling us, not "no evidence". However Brian Josephson merely assumes quantum mechanics will explain telepathy for no stated reason# |
| 23:12.53 | Wormy_away | Sorry for the rant |
| 23:13.09 | DrodoEmpire | Nah its fine |
| 23:16.42 | Xho | We call Pakistanis Pakistanis for a reason |
| 23:18.58 | DrodoEmpire | ...Because they're from Pakistan? |
| 23:19.23 | Xho | Yes |
| 23:19.38 | Xho | Paki is a racist term because it's a racist term, no real reason behind it |

| 23:32.31 | Wormy_away | hi |
| 23:33.55 | TekDroid | Hi Wormy_ |
| 23:35.40 | Wormy_ | https://www.newscientist.com/article/dn28357-people-with-parkinsons-walk-again-after-promising-drug-trial/ |
| 23:38.10 | DrodoEmpire | Huh. |
| 23:38.13 | DrodoEmpire | Well that's good |
| 23:39.34 | Wormy_ | I read about a promising treatment for cancer found recently too, based on a Malaria protein |
| 23:39.43 | DrodoEmpire | Oh? |
| 23:40.18 | Wormy_ | it still needs testing on humans |
| 23:40.22 | DrodoEmpire | Well actually Wormy, I've been talking to some stoners and *they* tell me weed's the *real* cure... <.< |
| 23:40.29 | Wormy_ | http://www.independent.co.uk/news/science/cure-for-cancer-might-accidentally-have-been-found-and-it-could-be-malaria-a6693601.html |
| 23:41.34 | Monet_2 | Reminds me of how having one alleile for sickle-cell aenemia instead of 2 makes you immune to malaria but doesn't ruin your life from inefficient blood cells. |
| 23:41.46 | DrodoEmpire | But in all seriousness, interesting stuff. |
| 23:42.00 | Wormy_ | If it was a real cure, we would be using it already. Really the idea that these drugs are suppressed makes no economic sense, and it means even the elites die from cancer (unless you go the conspiracy mile further to believe cancer is unnatural) |
| 23:42.17 | DrodoEmpire | ^ |
| 23:42.23 | DrodoEmpire | Yeah its all crazy |
| 23:43.18 | DrodoEmpire | Like you'd think doctors and scientists would patent and produce the drug at worst out of selfish motives; Everybody gets cancer after all, including him or his family. |
| 23:43.33 | DrodoEmpire | If not for the benefit of society or financial gain |
| 23:44.24 | Wormy_ | I think it can treat some diseases to a limited extend, someone I know swears by it treating pain caused by <can't remember what its called> and sometimes you actually read about scientists studying these drugs for potential benefits |
| 23:44.52 | Wormy_ | But it ain't some "cure" or suppressed treatment |
| 23:45.31 | Monet_2 | Don't forget that "cancer" has hundreds of variations |
| 23:45.37 | DrodoEmpire | ^ |
| 23:46.12 | Monet_2 | No guarentee a cure for leukemia will work on lung cancer. |
| 23:46.56 | Wormy_ | There can never probably be a cure for cancer, but hopefully one day effective ways to treat them, or repair or replace organs damaged by cancer or other diseases that would have killed them today. |
| 23:47.21 | Monet_2 | True |
| 23:47.36 | Wormy_ | Of course, it you are trying to promote cacer charities or awareness to the public, you probably want to use the slogan "We'll find a cure one day" |
| 23:47.48 | Monet_2 | You can't "catch" cancer, its a fault of the body. |
| 23:48.46 | Monet_2 | You always develop it, and when it comes to those sorts of ailments, spreading a cure to kill it off (like with vaccines) doesn't really work |
| 23:49.48 | Wormy_ | There is one example, fortunately not in humans which defies this. The Tazmanian Devils are threatened by a face eating tumour disease that can actually spread. |
| 23:50.18 | Wormy_ | its weird |
