[02:07] <snap-l> Finished off an interview with the band Cryogen
[02:07] <snap-l> Hoping to get that up on the site tonight. :)
[02:07] <rick_h__> party
[02:09] <snap-l> yeah, should be a good one
[02:09] <snap-l> they've got a really tight sound
[02:10] <snap-l> and they have a kickstarter going on
[02:10] <snap-l> so hoping to get more folks involved with that.
[12:58] <snap-l> Good mornig
[13:06] <jrwren_> good morning
[15:34] <greg-g> morn

[17:17] <snap-l> I <3 it when people say they'll stick to IRC because of the NSA
[17:17] <snap-l> as if logging bots aren't a thing. :)
[17:17] <snap-l> or even relay servers. ;)
[17:18] <snap-l> Here's your new and improved all-digital tin-foil hat. Enjoy.
[17:28] <brousch> run your own server
[17:29] <greg-g> WMF is probably going to throw up a Freenode server :)
[17:29] <greg-g> pending legal approval
[17:39] <snap-l> greg-g: Awesome.
[18:38] <jrwren_> cryptocat FTW
[18:48] <rick_h__> jrwren_: who are you working for now? /me keeps mixing it up
[18:51] <rick_h__> jrwren_: nvm, see arbor networks now. I keep mising them and baracuda networks up
[18:52] <jrwren_> :)
[18:53] <rick_h__> mis/mix
[19:37] <snap-l> TIL: there is a blorple.com
[19:37] <snap-l> (no, I don't know what it is outside of a DNS lookup)
[20:14] <greg-g> so, a tricky question to ask someone: "Have you heard of this story that you don't really want to hear?"  .... if I answer yes, I lie. If I answer no, I get to hear the story I don't want to hear. I have to then say "no, but I don't want to hear it" and sound like an ass. :/
[20:16] <greg-g> there's this one person who does this all the time, which is really annoying
[20:17] <snap-l> greg-g: The problem is you've limited yourself to either/or dichotomy
[20:17] <greg-g> Right, it's how the question was asked!
[20:17] <snap-l> There's more than a yes/no answer, along with the associated guilt / endurance
[20:17] <greg-g> how would you answer to get out of it?
[20:17] <brousch> Punch him in the groin and run away
[20:17] <snap-l> Other answers include:
[20:17] <snap-l> 1) Answer: MUP! and then walk away.
[20:17] <greg-g> brousch: it's a she, but also a coworker, so a no go ;)
[20:18] <brousch> More fun for you then!
[20:18] <greg-g> snap-l: I'm being ambushed at my desk!
[20:18] <brousch> "I would love to hear it, but I really need to <work thing> right now"
[20:18] <snap-l> 2) Yell "CAPTCHA" and then show her a hand-drawn squiggle on a piece of paper.
[20:20] <greg-g> brousch: yep, that's it.
[20:20] <greg-g> snap-l: though this gets an honorable mention
[20:21] <snap-l> greg-g: say plainly "I need 30 minutes of uniterrupted focus for this project. Please come back, and I'll be with you then
[20:22] <snap-l> generally speaking folks won't return
[20:24] <snap-l> and if she doesn't get the hint, ask her for the number of words that have been written about all Marvel properties because Disney wants a cut.
[20:52] <wolfger> greg-g: I vote for "no, but I don't want to hear it". I'm ok with being an ass when it comes to those situations.
