| 11:02.18 | Liquid_Ink | Yey |
| 11:02.25 | Liquid_Ink | Let me tell you a dark secret |
| 11:02.34 | Liquid_Ink | <PROTECTED> |
| 11:09.37 | Liquid_Ink | :( |
| 11:14.43 | Liquid_Ink | I heard that scientists observed a black hole spew something out? |
| 11:16.31 | Ghelae | That's quite vague. There probably was an observation of gas being spewed out from a black hole accretion disc or something like that, yes. |
| 11:16.54 | Ghelae | Not something leaving the event horizon, though. |
| 11:17.02 | Liquid_Ink | http://www.blastr.com/2015-11-4/nasa-just-saw-something-come-out-black-hole-first-time-ever |
| 11:18.45 | Ghelae | Well, there you go. I do remember that story (although not from that site). |
| 11:19.20 | Liquid_Ink | It sounds less ominous now that I've read the full thing |
| 11:19.35 | Liquid_Ink | Black Holes usually emit x-rays don't they? |
| 11:20.48 | Ghelae | Yeah; stuff falling towards a black hole tends to get so hot it glows in x-ray light. |

| 14:46.37 | Wormy_ | I did, I thought the ship look like Ralph Mcquarrie design https://i.kinja-img.com/gawker-media/image/upload/s--FUyEiLpU--/c_scale,fl_progressive,q_80,w_800/18lsjl7zu3nqljpg.jpg |
| 14:47.11 | Cyrannian | indeed |
| 14:47.28 | Wormy_ | Not sure about the CG |
| 14:53.35 | Cyrannian | hopefully it's just preliminary |
| 14:53.44 | Cyrannian | Also I read that it's set in the prime reality |

| 21:50.10 | Liquid_Ink | Hello |
| 21:57.08 | Wormy_ | hi |
| 21:58.50 | Liquid_Ink | How are you? |
| 22:03.29 | Ghel | Hello. |
| 22:08.22 | The_Randomness | Wormy_: Sort of random thought, how big do you think the shellfish and worms that the not_Salsetthe would farm would be? |
| 22:10.33 | Wormy_ | Hm, I imagine them to be small |
| 22:10.42 | The_Randomness | yeah, me too |
| 22:11.59 | Wormy_ | They;d be living off bacterial scum for the most part and in a low oxygen environment, and also being smaller makes mobility around the sensitive cave system easier |
| 22:12.19 | The_Randomness | Right |
| 22:13.20 | Ghel | These aren't supposed to be highly motile organisms though, are they? |
| 22:14.23 | *** join/#cyrannus ImpyDroid2 (~Anders@host-119-156-66-217.spbmts.ru) |
| 22:14.36 | Ghel | Saying that, I believe troglobites tend to be small regardless. |
| 22:15.53 | Wormy_ | There would probably be organisms more and less motile, there probably would be lots of tube-worm type things |
| 22:16.38 | Wormy_ | then again, for some organisms in the ocean, the only thing that really stops them growing is being eaten |
| 22:16.49 | Wormy_ | Like certain kinds of squid |
| 22:18.36 | Wormy_ | Well I guess foodstock is a problem but maybe it isn't so limiting considering how big they can get |
| 22:18.43 | Ghel | And tube worms, I imagine. But these ones are certainly being eaten. |
| 22:18.54 | Wormy_ | There was also those funny tube-like organisms that can grow 50 metres long |
| 22:19.02 | Wormy_ | What were they called? |
| 22:19.21 | Ghel | So if they do grow without bound, it might be a balance between letting them grow big and actually eating them. |
| 22:19.36 | Ghel | You might be thinking of salps there. But they're colonial organisms. |
| 22:19.57 | The_Randomness | Alright |
| 22:20.05 | Wormy_ | Pyrosomes https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HPPYNpEbod8 |
| 22:20.26 | Wormy_ | Not very motile (and yeah, colonial) |
| 22:20.40 | Ghel | Yeah, they're either salps or a similar type of colonial tunicate. |
| 22:21.04 | Ghel | Not salps. Salps are a specific type. |
| 22:21.30 | Ghel | Distinct orders within the same class. |
| 22:28.59 | Wormy_ | I watched this documentary, where divers discovered a clump of strobing mucus. None of them knew what it was, so one of them picked it up and spread it into the water. The thing reversed back to its clump and started strobing again. |
| 22:29.15 | Wormy_ | That was probably a colonial organism of some kind. |
| 22:29.43 | Ghel | Yeah. There are plenty of different phyla for them to come from. |
| 22:29.53 | Liquid_Ink | I dreamt last night that my house was home to a nest of tarantulas. With a "queen tarantula" |
| 22:30.36 | Ghel | Well. Okay. |
| 22:30.56 | Ghel | I'm going to go now. Bye! |
| 22:30.59 | The_Randomness | Bye |
| 22:31.46 | Wormy_ | Communal spiders already exist, so perhaps one day they will form proper colonies with organised casts. |
| 22:32.08 | Wormy_ | I think we now know Ghelae's weakness. |

| 22:43.42 | The_Randomness | hm? |
| 22:43.47 | The_Randomness | That looks interesting |
