schestowitz | Hey, thenixedreport | Mar 28 00:32 |
thenixedreport | Keep up the good work. | Mar 28 00:33 |
thenixedreport | It looks like Miguel's tongue slipped so to speak. | Mar 28 00:33 |
schestowitz | People saw that | Mar 28 00:34 |
schestowitz | Byfield tried to cover up for him, as usual | Mar 28 00:35 |
schestowitz | But I saw the comment on his spin | Mar 28 00:35 |
thenixedreport | So why is Byfield saying what he is saying? | Mar 28 00:37 |
thenixedreport | I am wondering if he simply does not like conflict. | Mar 28 00:37 |
schestowitz | Sometimes conflicts are justified | Mar 28 00:37 |
schestowitz | See Churchill quotes | Mar 28 00:37 |
schestowitz | good night | Mar 28 00:40 |
thenixedreport | Going to bed already? | Mar 28 00:41 |

_goblin | " It looks like Miguel's tongue slipped so to speak." - What have I missed? | Mar 28 02:31 |
thenixedreport | I was commenting on him stating how Microsoft shot itself in the foot. | Mar 28 02:33 |
thenixedreport | With all the patent threats. | Mar 28 02:33 |
thenixedreport | And how it hurt .NET. | Mar 28 02:33 |
_goblin | ah... | Mar 28 02:35 |
_goblin | I thought for a minute he had appeared on a podcast and accidently slipped up on cam.... | Mar 28 02:35 |

*DaemonFC facepalms | Mar 28 07:41 | |
schestowitz | Oh no, not *that* debate | Mar 28 07:46 |
schestowitz | You're going to Planet Hell for sodomy | Mar 28 07:46 |
schestowitz | They haven't found that planet yet | Mar 28 07:46 |

DaemonFC | I'm 26 years into infinity I guess | Mar 28 07:48 |
schestowitz | Looks like hell to me | Mar 28 07:48 |
schestowitz | There is no infinity in nature | Mar 28 07:49 |
schestowitz | Just conceptually | Mar 28 07:49 |
DaemonFC | That's why I don't get this idea of hell | Mar 28 07:49 |
schestowitz | Like, if you're a caveman | Mar 28 07:49 |

DaemonFC | I currently lack funding to replace it | Mar 28 07:53 |

schestowitz | DaemonFC: don't | Mar 28 08:00 |
schestowitz | Use public transport then | Mar 28 08:00 |
DaemonFC | and they punish you for not going into debt by raising your interest rates when you do get a loan | Mar 28 08:00 |
_goblin_ | daemonfc: Im proud to say I have no credit what so ever - I don't believe in it. | Mar 28 08:00 |
DaemonFC | I believe that I will be walking around town a lot | Mar 28 08:01 |
_goblin_ | paid my mortgage off last year.... | Mar 28 08:01 |
DaemonFC | cause there's not public transportation at all here | Mar 28 08:01 |
DaemonFC | does not exist | Mar 28 08:01 |
DaemonFC | *no | Mar 28 08:01 |
_goblin_ | what about getting a bike? | Mar 28 08:01 |
DaemonFC | yes, a bike | Mar 28 08:02 |
_goblin_ | or those bouncy boots that make you run like an alien. | Mar 28 08:02 |
DaemonFC | where do you ride those at? | Mar 28 08:02 |
DaemonFC | the sidewalks that don't exist here | Mar 28 08:02 |
_goblin_ | I mean a motorbike. | Mar 28 08:02 |
DaemonFC | yes, surely | Mar 28 08:02 |
DaemonFC | ahhh | Mar 28 08:02 |
DaemonFC | that's another problem | Mar 28 08:02 |
_goblin_ | I can recommend an R1 | Mar 28 08:02 |
DaemonFC | then you can't ride them from November to March | Mar 28 08:02 |
_goblin_ | yes you can.....you just have to be a nutter.... | Mar 28 08:03 |
DaemonFC | you obviously don't understand | Mar 28 08:03 |
_goblin_ | are you meaning in the winter? | Mar 28 08:03 |
DaemonFC | you are NOT going to ride it in northern Indiana in December | Mar 28 08:03 |
DaemonFC | explain to me how riding it in 3 feet of snow and ice works | Mar 28 08:03 |
DaemonFC | B-) | Mar 28 08:04 |
_goblin_ | like I say... | Mar 28 08:04 |
_goblin_ | a nutter | Mar 28 08:04 |
DaemonFC | I don't even think it's possible to ride it on that | Mar 28 08:04 |
_goblin_ | put a snow plough on the front.....its got the power to push it. | Mar 28 08:04 |
_goblin_ | chains on the tyres....youre sorted. | Mar 28 08:04 |
DaemonFC | even if it was, there's that gigantic hill that you'd have to go up and down to reach the other side of town | Mar 28 08:04 |
DaemonFC | I'm really probably going to have to get a loan at the bank | Mar 28 08:05 |
DaemonFC | which is NOT something I want to do but beats all other options | Mar 28 08:05 |
_goblin_ | and I bet my R1 has enough HP to push through 3 foot of snow....they are quite powerful you know..... | Mar 28 08:05 |
_goblin_ | how about...... | Mar 28 08:06 |
_goblin_ | a snowboard then....you say you have a hill....why not use it.....? | Mar 28 08:06 |
DaemonFC | a car | Mar 28 08:06 |
DaemonFC | I'm going to need a car | Mar 28 08:06 |
_goblin_ | a car would have difficulties if you are claiming 3foot of snow.... | Mar 28 08:07 |
_goblin_ | just as much as a bike. | Mar 28 08:07 |
DaemonFC | maybe if it's the kind you guys drive :) | Mar 28 08:07 |
DaemonFC | no weight on it, 1.5 liter engine | Mar 28 08:07 |
DaemonFC | I could see how this becomes a problem in winter | Mar 28 08:07 |
_goblin_ | sorry to disapoint but the engine really doesnt make much difference to the snow condition... | Mar 28 08:08 |
DaemonFC | yes it does | Mar 28 08:08 |
_goblin_ | should I get a knackered up heavy US vehicle. | Mar 28 08:08 |
DaemonFC | I'd hate to have anything less than a V6 | Mar 28 08:08 |
_goblin_ | My wifes ford KA handles better in the snow than my Audi | Mar 28 08:08 |
DaemonFC | for starters, there's the snow, and then there's also acceleration | Mar 28 08:09 |
_goblin_ | like I say....the KA handles snowy hills far better than my TT. | Mar 28 08:09 |
DaemonFC | no acceleration means you'll be stuck trying to get out of a lot and onto the street | Mar 28 08:09 |
DaemonFC | people see you trying to get out and so they speed up | Mar 28 08:10 |
_goblin_ | no it doesn't....too much accelleration churns up the snow and causes slipage...your best best is a slow steady drive....try to accelerate too quite and your tyres spin.....thats basics. | Mar 28 08:11 |
_goblin_ | *too quick | Mar 28 08:11 |
DaemonFC | if they're bald, they will | Mar 28 08:11 |
DaemonFC | get some proper tires with good tread and you won't have an issue | Mar 28 08:11 |
_goblin_ | in order to keep traction you can't accelerate too quick....you ever driven in the snow? you ever driven at all? | Mar 28 08:11 |
DaemonFC | driven in the snow every winter for the last 10 years | Mar 28 08:12 |
_goblin_ | thats not immediately obvious to me.... | Mar 28 08:12 |
DaemonFC | including down the highway in a white-out | Mar 28 08:12 |
DaemonFC | couldn't tell the field from the road | Mar 28 08:13 |
_goblin_ | no sign posts? | Mar 28 08:13 |
DaemonFC | the state lets some highways get that bad | Mar 28 08:13 |
DaemonFC | once in a while | Mar 28 08:13 |
DaemonFC | I mean nothing to guide you | Mar 28 08:13 |
DaemonFC | except the truck you're following | Mar 28 08:13 |
_goblin_ | then you are probably best off with a snowboard. | Mar 28 08:13 |
_goblin_ | and you won't need a loan | Mar 28 08:14 |
_goblin_ | you can accelerate as fast as you like.....the less traction the better for a snowboard. | Mar 28 08:14 |
DaemonFC | There's no way to get around without a car | Mar 28 08:14 |
DaemonFC | there's just no way to | Mar 28 08:14 |
_goblin_ | spiked shoes? | Mar 28 08:14 |
_goblin_ | ski? | Mar 28 08:15 |
_goblin_ | husky drawn sledge? | Mar 28 08:15 |
DaemonFC | yes, and what happens when I need to go to the store? | Mar 28 08:15 |
DaemonFC | 3 miles away | Mar 28 08:15 |
DaemonFC | and make it back with stuff | Mar 28 08:15 |
_goblin_ | I think your best bet is the huskies then. | Mar 28 08:15 |
_goblin_ | or reindeer? | Mar 28 08:15 |
_goblin_ | yeah.....I think I can see you on a reindeer drawn sledge.... | Mar 28 08:16 |
_goblin_ | you could be like santa with your shopping on the bacl | Mar 28 08:16 |
_goblin_ | *back | Mar 28 08:16 |
DaemonFC | car loan is really the only option here | Mar 28 08:16 |
DaemonFC | all joking aside | Mar 28 08:16 |
_goblin_ | sorry afk there....youre probably right...even reindeer would have probs with 3ft of snow......unless you fit them with stilts... | Mar 28 08:22 |
_goblin_ | or tasteful booties. | Mar 28 08:22 |
