<Ellied> what language are those labels in?
<DeterministicRaptor> For the dissected mouse? Russian.
<egg> DeterministicRaptor: it's a rat though
<Ellied> ah okay I see it now. my recognition of written languages is already poor, and handwritten doesn't help.

* egg and the hydra pet Ellied
* Ellied pets egg
* Ellied also pets the hydra
<DeterministicRaptor> Ellied: it helps that it's via whitequark. Narrows the search space a bit.
* DeterministicRaptor carefully gives the hydra headpats.
<Ellied> I'm not actually familiar with what languages whitequark speaks. did they say while I wasn't around?
<DeterministicRaptor> Russian and English definitely.
<Ellied> well uh, given that they don't really sound like Google Translate, I might've guessed the latter.
<whitequark> lol
<whitequark> egg: wat
<Ellied> fsef
<whitequark> that's not a cat
<whitequark> that's a rat
<whitequark> egg: oh i see
<whitequark> so like
<whitequark> my roommate with ADHD brought a stray cat into the house.
<whitequark> with ADHD.
<whitequark> TIL cat ADHD is a thing.
<egg> whitequark: any catpics?
<egg> DeterministicRaptor: moar cats for ANBO letters
<DeterministicRaptor> kitty!
<egg> DeterministicRaptor: I keep wanting to read "mean anomaly" as "mean nomaly"
<DeterministicRaptor> egg: You feel anxious about solving the kepler equation.
<egg> yes, also I found an incorrect formula in some wikipedia page
<egg> (but all hail the tests, I found it!)
<egg> (amidst 50 code paths)
<egg> well no, more like 30ish, but testing that both for elliptic and hyperbolic orbits...
<egg> whitequark: I assume the cat just dissected the rat and dumped it on your table
<whitequark> egg: had to do that to pass anatomy course
<whitequark> anyway, cat pics, sec
<whitequark> we carried the cat to a vet and on the way back i got doused with large amounts of cat urine
<egg> ow
<whitequark> and then she decided that today she REALLY wants to fuck some sort of male cat. and loudly demanded to be let out
<egg> cute cat though
<whitequark> well it was okay for half a hour and then a hour but not a hour and a half
<whitequark> then we looked up how cat contraceptives work and took printer's contraceptives and approximately adjusted them to a reasonable dose
<egg> O_o
<egg> whitequark: I get that the dissection was something about anatomy courses, but I assume the cat is a personal touch (and if I see a cat next to a dead rat I assume the cat has something to do with it)
<whitequark> they're basically the same thing. ethinylestradiol and a different progestin than what's usually used in humans
<whitequark> but that one is also used in humans, just in different countries and/or cases so w/e
<whitequark> when we gave the cat the REALLY SMALL part of the pill (it should be approximately 1/20th of a human one) you know what she did? she went on the table, took my goddamn cup of water and drank from it
<whitequark> instead of like, spitting it out or w/e
<whitequark> good cat
<egg> O_o
<whitequark> jesus i hope this works
<whitequark> my psyche is just really not built to live in the same apt as a very horny cat okay
<egg> DeterministicRaptor: catpic ^
* DeterministicRaptor blinks.
<whitequark> egg: fwiw the cat is completely random on that pic
<egg|phone|egg> Aargh microcoupure
<egg|phone|egg> That's rare here

<Ellied> UmbralRaptor has random outcomes once again?
<Ellied> our department has this handheld x-ray fluorometer that we get out from time to time. I'm not sure where we got it as it looks a little more expensive than our usual budget, but there it is.
<Ellied> it looks like a 60s sci-fi ray gun.
<Ellied> dunno what's supposed to fit into that dock on top. Some kind of PDA maybe? the connector's not familiar to me
<Ellied> the cable plugged into the front is an RS-232 interface, using a plug that looks like a NIM-CAMAC connector modified to have seven pins instead of one.
<UmbralRaptor> Ellied: It took a few hours to refill my entropy pool after the statistics test.
<UmbralRaptor> Also o_O at the PDA slot.

<Ellied> why does attempting to go on facebook result in needing to break out the 'pkill -9 -f' at least 50% of the time?
* egg does not use facebook and therefore has no answer
<Ellied> something involved is extremely shitty, and I'm not convinced it's my browser or CPU.
<egg> WTF 2.337771065477673e+03 * Degree
<egg> dear jet propulsion laboratory, what the fuck MA= 2.337771065477673E+03

<kmath> egg: 177.7710654776729
* UmbralRaptor avoids facebook, but notes that twitter sometimes seems to eat CPU for Reasons.
<Ellied> twitter eats CPU whenever I have a lot of posts loaded at once, but that's fixed easily enough by opening it in a new tab every so often
<Ellied> honestly I just have facebook for the ubiquitous messenger app at some point. I'm constantly hoping they'll publicly fuck up badly enough that all my friends will leave it, and I can convince them to move to less frustrating chat systems.
<UmbralRaptor> Unfortunately, Google is trying very hard to mal their chat software useless. >_<
<egg> (but which one)
<UmbralRaptor> At least there are IRC and SMS/MMS?
<UmbralRaptor> egg: eggsactly!
* egg has never really been into SMS/MMS
<egg> but IRCFTW
<egg> ok, JPL HORIZONS is just borked for Voyager, fuck it
