* UmbralRaptop wants to apologize for being flakey about organizing an ANBO meeting, but dealing with the trip logistics has saturated my uncertainty tolerance. =X
<kmath> <bofh453> <sorear> i'd also like to see QFT on something resembling a rigorous foundation ⏎ <@bofh453> I'd like a unicorn as we… https://t.co/8E2vf0xaek
<bofh> UmbralRaptop: no worries :3 it sounds like a messily tight schedule to begin with for you, too.
<UmbralRaptop> thanks
<UmbralRaptop> … for some reason I thought QFT had a rigorous foundation, please expand?
<bofh> depends on how much you consider things like renormalization and the underlying technique behind diagrammatic evaluation rigorous
<bofh> jesus fucking christ, I just got blasted by 28degC 90% relative humidity air trying to step outside just now. it's astronomical twilight right now.
<bofh> like, this was Shanghai in July at it's worst, except now I'm not at 31.21°N on the ocean, I'm at 40.11°N in the middle of the Midwest.
<bofh> fuck *everything* about this.
<bofh> I'd say "kill me now" but the weather seems to already be on it.

<kmath> <ShinraAlpha> Read a thing on Tumblr the other day about how "punishable with a fine" means "legal for rich people" and it's lodged in my head firmly.
<bofh> I love you X11 clipboard, and by love you I mean hate you.
<egg|zz|egg> bofh: switzerland has this interesting thing where fines scale with one's salary
<egg|zz|egg> (based on a number of days, with an upper bound of 3000 CHF per day)
<bofh> egg|zz|egg: see, this is the *correct* way to do it. iirc, Finland does the same, except w/o upper bound.

<BPlayer> I'm sure Raptops need more than that
<UmbralRaptop> Just a bit.
<bofh> UmbralRaptop: huh, that might explain why my tiredness went away after I kind of impulse-ate like two chocolate bars.

<SnoopJeDi> ooh, a spinning CRT
<SnoopJeDi> so retrofuture
<UmbralRaptop> Supports dual monitors as long as 1 is upside down.
UmbralRaptop is now known as NomalRaptop
<SnoopJeDi> NomalRaptop, was that a scanline joke?
<NomalRaptop> SnoopJeDi: Pauli exclusion principle joke.
<SnoopJeDi> okay phew
<SnoopJeDi> into my brain popped a Rube Goldberg contraption, spinning the emitting CRT on a variable height column
<SnoopJeDi> beam on for one screen for scanning top to bottom, on for the other when going back up
<NomalRaptop> egg: please don't let Hidden Fun Stuff into CDG.
<NomalRaptop> SnoopJeDi: o_O
<egg> that's in paris intra muros, not in cdg :-p
<egg> NomalRaptop: and it's just the limestone layer; the RER however goes below that,
<NomalRaptop> hm
<egg> it's basically a bone stockpile in the limestone layer,
<SnoopJeDi> NomalRaptop, I was given a Rube Goldberg calendar for Christmas so I guess it's been on my brain this year
<egg> actually the RER apparently goes above there? but there are places where it goes to 40 m
<SnoopJeDi> catacombs sound incredible
<SnoopJeDi> Catacombs always remind me of The Cask of Amontillado for some reason
<egg> NomalRaptop: complete with aquifer :-p
<kmath> <living_marble> My cask of amontillado brings all the boys to the catacombs ⏎ And they're like, you're entombing us alive ⏎ Damn right,… https://t.co/rDWIhtRsQs
<SnoopJeDi> bofh, yea but even looong before that :P
<SnoopJeDi> once I implicitly understood the -omb in catacomb I think
<SnoopJeDi> I really enjoyed the parts of Deus Ex in France for how suggestive they were
<SnoopJeDi> "This famous place," but Quake 2 level geometry heh
<SnoopJeDi> Or I guess Unreal since that's what it's engine is based on
<NomalRaptop> Don't let the Illuminati know.
<SnoopJeDi> conspiracy theory is like potato crisps. I know this is bad for me, but damn if it doesn't taste delicious
<NomalRaptop> Heh
<NomalRaptop> So, there's a KLM aircraft with "the flying Dutchman" written on it. Is this. bad sign?
<NomalRaptop> Also, this travel thing is a good reason not to attend any of today's protests, right?
<bofh> Ehh, it's why I haven't gone to any (well that & it's death-hot outside), but I'm not a citizen so that makes me a bit paranoid.
<SnoopJeDi> Protesting is also not the only form of activism
<egg> !u Ħ
<Qboid> U+0126 LATIN CAPITAL LETTER H WITH STROKE (Ħ)
<SnoopJeDi> And I think it's safe to say the KSP community (and many others!) overrepresent social anxiety >_>
<NomalRaptop> <_< >_>
<NomalRaptop> Seems right for Asteroid Day. https://twitter.com/_RomanTkachenko/status/1012925954761641984
<kmath> <_RomanTkachenko> Asteroid Ryugu now in color! ⏎ #Ryugu #Hayabusa2 #AsteroidDay #AsteroidDay2018 https://t.co/dRXaM2MS7Q
<bofh> SnoopJeDi: so I don't really social anxiety, tbh.
<SnoopJeDi> introversion maybe then
<SnoopJeDi> I mean, I don't want to assign you a personality profile, I'm talking in general
* NomalRaptop is feeling anxious about the unknowns (at a personal level) about traveling. There will additional anxiety at the conference.
<SnoopJeDi> There's this kind of implicit idea going around right now that activism is only about going to protests, as if single-day events are what political action looks like
* SnoopJeDi ...goes to finish sending Moog's anti-tarriff form letter to NC reps
* NomalRaptop is deeply burned out on voting for the lesser evil and getting the greater evil anyway.

<SnoopJeDi> NomalRaptop, I've become of the opinion that we need to guard our inputs pretty closely
<SnoopJeDi> Too many people gorge themselves on "catching up"
<SnoopJeDi> I mean being in touch is laudable but some people are living and breathing it and burning themselves out
