| 00:35.02 | Arrowmaster | gah decided to play my mage deck in ranked, forgot what cards i had in it and drew nozdormu on the opening |
| 00:37.06 | Icicle | an then alarm bot |
| 00:37.07 | Icicle | and profit |
| 00:37.17 | Icicle | watch them squirm out cards :D |
| 00:38.09 | Arrowmaster | i mulliganed it |
| 00:39.56 | Arrowmaster | damn druids are annoying |
| 00:51.09 | Arrowmaster | ok deck edited, i swapped out the nozdormu for sneeds and added rivendare to go with the thaurissan and kelthuzad in the deck |
| 01:13.28 | Arrowmaster | that was bad i got kel and sneed out and kept fucking around not killing the opponent and he finally got me |

| 23:28.13 | kd3 | whee, got to a bar just in time to watch American Pharoah win the Triple Crown |
| 23:29.18 | Amarande | dammit, I missed the race |
| 23:29.28 | Amarande | and it's the first time the triple crown has been won since before I was born |
| 23:32.08 | zenzelezz | who is American Pharaoh, and what is the Triple Crown? |

| 23:33.41 | Shirik | Simca: MSVC++ is not any more picky than gcc is |
| 23:33.50 | Semlar | it's a horse race |
| 23:33.56 | Shirik | The standard states that the two are implementation defined, and they both have defined an implementation |
| 23:34.21 | Shirik | however <> is meant for standard headers, and "" is meant for inclusion of source files. The fact that g++ does the same thing for both is merely an implementation detail. |
| 23:34.34 | Semlar | it's a 2 minute race that they managed to drag out for an hour and a half |
| 23:35.28 | Shirik | how do you not know what the triple crown is? I thought this was like the ONLY thing the entire world agreed upon |
| 23:35.50 | Semlar | i don't know why anyone outside of the US would know anything about it |
| 23:36.00 | Shirik | isn't it a worldwide sport? |
| 23:36.07 | kd3 | horse racing? |
| 23:36.08 | Semlar | it's entirely within the US? |
| 23:36.12 | Shirik | well then |
| 23:36.13 | kd3 | the US and england |
| 23:36.16 | Iriel | Different countries have their own races |
| 23:36.23 | kd3 | http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Triple_Crown#Horse_racing |
| 23:37.03 | Semlar | it's in kentucky, maryland and new york |
| 23:37.46 | Stanzilla | https://blog.filippo.io/how-plex-is-doing-https-for-all-its-users/ < pretty cool how they did that |
| 23:37.51 | foxlit | "horse racing" "sport" |
| 23:38.21 | zenzelezz | <Semlar> it's a 2 minute race that they managed to drag out for an hour and a half <-- isn't that every American TV show? |
| 23:38.31 | Semlar | yes |
| 23:38.49 | zenzelezz | someone shoots a 30-second "amazing" clip; pow! 10 minutes |
| 23:39.18 | zenzelezz | sadly the Norwegian news sites are doing the same now |
| 23:39.25 | Semlar | it's more like show something about horses for 30 seconds and then have 5 minutes of commercials |
| 23:40.03 | Amarande | the races are all within the US, the horses can come from worldwide |
| 23:40.18 | Amarande | although the US doesn't seem to see as many foreign horses as most nations |
| 23:40.43 | Shirik | at least it's not dragonball z |
| 23:40.47 | Amarande | that's probably because the US tends to place a lot of prestige on dirt racing (e.g., the Crown races are all dirt based) whereas most of the rest of the world tends to use mostly or exclusively grass tracks |
| 23:40.53 | Shirik | 5 minutes? LET'S TAKE 20 EPISODES |
| 23:41.26 | Amarande | and it is quite highly rare for a horse to be talented at both surfaces |
| 23:41.49 | Amarande | this is why whenever it rains too hard in the US and they have to take the turf races off the grass, half the field tends to get scratched along with the announcement |
| 23:41.54 | Shirik | I didn't know grass tracks were a thing |

| 23:42.52 | Amarande | (though really in general, rainy days tend to bring a deluge of scratches with them as well as the rain itself heh) |
| 23:43.29 | Amarande | hmm, I wonder if my old connecticut phone betting account is still around or if it got deleted due to inactivity |
| 23:43.39 | Amarande | it didn't have any money in it anyway, lol |
| 23:44.18 | Amarande | Shirik: pretty common for the more prestigious tracks to have grass, like the New York and Kentucky circuits |
| 23:46.06 | Amarande | California too, though I don't know now if Santa Anita etc. will be forced to give up turf racing due to water conservation measures |
| 23:46.29 | Amarande | and almost every Thoroughbred track outside the US is actually grass only |

| 23:46.54 | Shirik | this is not the chrome window |
| 23:47.07 | zenzelezz | yes it is |
| 23:47.11 | zenzelezz | now enter your credentials |
| 23:47.15 | Shirik | oh ty |
| 23:48.18 | Amarande | the breeders' cup may have made some really duff decisions in that light :( |
| 23:48.23 | Amarande | 2016 and 2017 are both slated to be in California |
| 23:48.57 | Amarande | and there's six grass races in the BC |
| 23:49.03 | Amarande | this is not a good combination :| |
