tritiumhello!00:58
quassel243Damn. Recompiled my quassel and now I have to reset everything :/00:59
tritiummneptok: please pass the Canadian bacon.  We're drowning in American pork spending.01:05
mneptoktritium: ojnk!01:13
tritium;)01:13
* nickrud stimulates tritium 01:19
* mneptok defibrillates nickrud 01:26
* tritium hides from nickrud01:28
nickrudthere's no hiding, tritium you WILL take your money!!01:28
tritiumnickrud: which?  The new $13/wk tax break?  Ooh, McDonald's here I come!01:29
nickrudand the unfired civil servants, the upgraded roads! (me is spending that money on his prescriptions)01:30
nickrudit's a paradox though: the people who have jobs will just save that tax refund, the ones that don't will spend01:31
tritiumToo little tax relief, too much wasteful spending.01:31
mneptoktritium: where TF do people that work in Los Alamos *actually live*?!01:32
nickrudtoo much tax cutting, not enough spending!01:33
tritiummneptok: some live in Los Alamos, some live in surrounding areas such as Santa Fe.01:33
tritiumnickrud: haha01:33
* nickrud is a full blown keynesian01:33
tritiumCongress' own Budget Office says it will fail: http://www.washingtontimes.com/news/2009/feb/04/cbo-obama-stimulus-harmful-over-long-haul/01:34
nickrudtritium, that cbo report is non existent: http://video.aol.com/video-detail/rachel-maddow-show-stimulus-showdown-and-debunked-nonexistent-cbo-report/1909451132/?icid=VIDURVNWS02 . the wa times is not exactly a quality source01:35
mneptoktritium: s/surrounding\ areas/expensive\ surrounding\ areas/01:35
tritiumnickrud: and 62% want more tax relief and less spending: http://www.rasmussenreports.com/public_content/politics/obama_administration/february_2009/62_want_stimulus_plan_to_have_more_tax_cuts_less_spending01:35
nickrudtritium, we need an -off-off-off-topic channel :)01:36
tritiumnickrud: indeed01:36
tritiummneptok: yes, they are expensive areas to live01:36
nickrudtritium, my attempt at last word: I would take your expert advice in certain obvious fields over any poll; similarly with macroeconomics01:37
tritiumnickrud: I'm no expert :)01:37
mneptoknickrud: s/-off-off-off-topic/age\ 25+/ ;)01:37
* nickrud compares himself to a baseline, and says 'from my perspective, yes'01:37
mneptokthe more time i spend near -offtopic, the more ancient i feel.01:38
nickrudmneptok, yeah, I only go in there when requested. I have it open for logging, mainly to look at people's history01:38
mneptokOK, planet.u.c. post is up. here comes the e-mail flood.01:38
* mneptok cringes01:39
* tritium looks01:39
tritiummneptok: native New Mexicans can hardly afford to live in Santa Fe anymore.  It's now mostly rich Californians and Texans, and actors like Val Kilmer, etc.01:40
nickrudwow, I'm not going to email, just figure you'll have more time for #ubuntu now that you don't get paid to have fun01:40
mneptoki'm expecting 50% "D0000D! could i have ur JAWB!?!??!?!?!" and 50% "D0000D! get me a HAWT JAWB!!!1!!!1!!"01:40
mneptoktritium: somehow Val lives up there and still (apparently) has money for (a lot of) groceries.01:41
nickrudah, neutral ground for me and nalioth!01:41
tritiumnickrud: note MSNBC leans about as far left as any MSM source01:41
tritiummneptok: hah!01:41
mneptokis he running or not?01:41
nickrudtritium, no further than the wa times does right: owned by Rev Moon and all, you know01:41
tritiummneptok: he says he is, so far01:41
nickrudwhat an interesting idea. The Jesse Ventura of New Mexico01:42
mneptok"New Mexico Legislature, this is Iceman. I'm 20 clicks out and coming in hot."01:42
tritium:)01:43
nickrudtritium, I always prefer primary sources: http://www.cbo.gov/doc.cfm?index=998701:48
tritiumagreed01:49
tritiumAh, it does show GDP going potentially going down, and at best, not up.01:50
nickrudafter 2014, the effect is 0 to .2% net change of GDP01:51
nickrudthat's relative to whatever the GDP would be at that time without the stimulus.01:52
nickrud-0.2% that is01:52
* mneptok is investing in lottery tickets01:53
nickrudops means off-topic political scrutiny, for a moment I guess. 01:53
nickrudI am a political junkie, and sometimes bring it up in awkward times and places. If someone is offended, well, I am sorry on reflection01:54
tritiumnickrud: not your fault, I poked mneptok, asking for Canadian bacon.01:54
mneptoktritium: happy to oblige, but i'll have to gain some weight before producing meat01:55
nickrudok, you get 20% of the blame, I couldn't follow the change of topic afterwards ;)01:55
tritiumI definitely take my share of the blame.01:55
tritiummneptok: scary thought.  I'm glad dinner is much later...01:57
* mneptok can always turn a topic of politics to one of gigantic butts. very similar topics.01:58
nickrudyou will not turn a classic rock song into a political thing. Even I have some respect02:00
tritium"classic rock song" might be a bit of a stretch ;)02:01
mneptok*blink*02:01
mneptokare you thinking Queen? if so, that makes me a "Fat Bottomed Girl" in my example above.02:01
* tritium assumed nickrud was referring to "Baby Got Back"02:02
nickrudeither will do02:02
nickrudbut I think mneptok and I are showing our age ;(02:02
tritiumI'd agree with the Queen song being a classic, but not the Sir Mix-a-Lot one.02:03
* nickrud doesn't think Sir Mix-a-Lot considers his music rock, anyway02:04
tritiumirssi always complains about me joining too many channels.02:35
tritiumI'm sure there is a setting I need to change somewhere.02:35
genii-aroundMy regular nick will be /away til I get these latest Quassel issues sorted out....03:01
