| cmaloney | lmorchard: You have opened the floodgates. | 02:57 |
|---|---|---|
| cmaloney | lmorchard: Prog metal is one of my favorite genres | 02:58 |
| lmorchard | Heh, I figured I might | 02:58 |
| cmaloney | Just added some more to the G+ post. | 02:58 |
| lmorchard | Realized I was in a rut on like just 2 albums from 2 bands & needed to expand | 02:59 |
| cmaloney | Yeah, I've been there. Usually lasts a week. ;) | 02:59 |
| lmorchard | I think I listened to just 2 dream theater albums on repeat when I wrote my last book | 03:00 |
| cmaloney | What's your opinion of the more metal trappings? (growl vocals, mega fast tempos, heavy distortion)? | 03:00 |
| lmorchard | Lately for some reason I've been stuck on just one Mastodon album as my "get down to business" playlist | 03:00 |
| cmaloney | Ah, now I have something to work with. :) | 03:01 |
| cmaloney | Which album? | 03:01 |
| lmorchard | Crack the Skye | 03:01 |
| cmaloney | http://depthsnc.bandcamp.com/album/pizza-party-ep | 03:01 |
| lmorchard | I can kind of go back & forth... I was on a Kansas trip like all last summer, but I can appreciate a lot of metal | 03:01 |
| cmaloney | Did you pick up "The Hunter" from Mastodon? | 03:02 |
| lmorchard | Hmm, been meaning to check that one out | 03:02 |
| cmaloney | Blood Mountain and Crack The Skye are like Mastodon's "Master of Puppets / Ride the Lightning" | 03:03 |
| cmaloney | The Hunter is their And Justice for All | 03:03 |
| cmaloney | Solid album | 03:03 |
| cmaloney | Opinions n Yes? | 03:04 |
| lmorchard | Yeah, I'm a big Yes fan | 03:04 |
| cmaloney | Fly from Here is a solid effort | 03:04 |
| lmorchard | I'm a little so-so on the very newest stuff since Union, but haven't checked out Fly from Here yet | 03:05 |
| cmaloney | I'm not a huge yes fan | 03:05 |
| cmaloney | Jon ANderson was a take it / leave it part for a while | 03:05 |
| lmorchard | This Pizza Party EP sounds like something I can get down with | 03:06 |
| lmorchard | Looks like I got some playlists to load up for tomorrow :D | 03:06 |
| cmaloney | http://cloudkickermusic.com/album/beacons | 03:08 |

| cmaloney | http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JfZMTDcqKnQ | 03:10 |
| cmaloney | The Ocean: Pelagial is my album of 2013. | 03:10 |
| cmaloney | Played the fuck out of that album for a few weeks | 03:10 |
| cmaloney | There's two discs: w/ Vocals and Instrumental | 03:10 |
| cmaloney | I actually prefer the vocals which is rare for me. | 03:11 |
| lmorchard | Heh, I forgot youtube lifted that old 10min limit on videos | 03:12 |
| cmaloney | Yeah, it's nice to be able to preview an album without plunking down cash | 03:12 |
| cmaloney | https://bandcamp.com/craigmaloney | 03:13 |
| lmorchard | I've also been listening to a lot of Spotify, but still spring for albums occasionally | 03:13 |
| cmaloney | not all of these are prog, but some of them | 03:13 |
| cmaloney | are | 03:13 |
| lmorchard | Heh, I see I've found a nicely sized iceberg here | 03:14 |
| cmaloney | Oh yeah | 03:14 |
| cmaloney | https://earache.bandcamp.com/album/outer-isolation | 03:15 |
| cmaloney | if you can get over the guy's screaming vocals (took me a bit) this one is really rewarding | 03:15 |
| cmaloney | thrash with technical death elements. | 03:15 |
| lmorchard | Heh, Tetrastructural Minds starts off like I just hit the boss level | 03:16 |
| cmaloney | You have. | 03:17 |
| lmorchard | And I'm saying heh a lot | 03:17 |
| cmaloney | But yeah it took me a little bit to get over the vocals | 03:18 |
| lmorchard | Hmm, yeah, I could see that... might have to be in more angsty mood to really get into that | 03:20 |
| cmaloney | It grows on you. It's a little jarring right out of the gate | 03:20 |
| cmaloney | but it's one of my more listened to albums | 03:20 |
| cmaloney | https://semanticsaturation.bandcamp.com/album/solipsistic | 03:21 |
| lmorchard | I also used to listen to a lot of self-indulgent goth music, so it's not totally out there | 03:21 |
| cmaloney | This one is one of those prog instrumental albums with Derek Sherinian / Virgil Donati | 03:22 |
| cmaloney | Sounds a lot like Planet X to me | 03:22 |
| cmaloney | https://toundra.bandcamp.com/album/iii | 03:25 |
| cmaloney | Haven't picked this one up yet | 03:25 |
| lmorchard | I see I'll have to spend some time on bandcamp too | 03:25 |
| cmaloney | yeah, bandcamp is amazing | 03:25 |
| cmaloney | I think the post rock tag will keep you busy for a year. | 03:26 |
| cmaloney | https://krimh.bandcamp.com/album/explore-2 | 03:27 |
| cmaloney | https://metropolisrecords.bandcamp.com/album/weapon | 03:28 |
| cmaloney | *cough* | 03:28 |
| lmorchard | Yeah, this is all good stuff, thanks for throwing it my way :) | 03:28 |
| cmaloney | np. More than happy to share. | 03:28 |
| cmaloney | If there's anything you want to check out feel free to ping me. | 03:29 |
| lmorchard | Oh yeah, I think I bought that Skinny Puppy album, but haven't queued it up again since it came out | 03:29 |
| cmaloney | lmorchard: It's fucking brilliant | 03:30 |
| lmorchard | Have you heard any of the Ohgr stuff? | 03:30 |
| cmaloney | I'm finding I prefer listening to the newer stuff | 03:30 |
| cmaloney | No, sadly I haven't picked any up | 03:30 |
| cmaloney | Not sure what my problem is, other than I don't think his stuff gets the distribution | 03:31 |
| lmorchard | Ohgr's a lot like this new Skinny Puppy | 03:31 |
| lmorchard | Maybe even a bit more poppy, oddly enough | 03:31 |
| cmaloney | Yeah, that's what I've heard. | 03:31 |
| cmaloney | Fuck, there's a new FLA album | 03:31 |
| cmaloney | I can't keep up | 03:31 |
| lmorchard | Heh | 03:32 |
| lmorchard | Yeah, just when I thought all those bands were done, they get more work done | 03:32 |
| cmaloney | I think that's why I've graviated away from industrial: there's a new album every year. | 03:32 |
| cmaloney | I'm glad Ministry is calling it a day. | 03:32 |
| lmorchard | Yeah, I lost track of Ministry probably like 10 years ago | 03:33 |
| cmaloney | Ever since Filth Pig I lost interest. | 03:33 |
| cmaloney | And everything since sounded like Psalm 69 revved up | 03:34 |
| lmorchard | I will say that they did a cover of What A Wonderful World that hurt my brain, but yeah pretty much variations on Psalm 69 | 03:34 |
| cmaloney | I liked the covers album | 03:34 |
| cmaloney | at least it wasn't bitching about Bush | 03:35 |
| lmorchard | Wow, crimony they have a lot of albums I never noticed | 03:36 |
| cmaloney | Ministry or FLA? | 03:36 |
| lmorchard | Ministry.. yeah I think I checked out around Filth Pig too | 03:36 |
| lmorchard | But FLA too | 03:36 |
| cmaloney | FLA has been pretty consistently awesome when they're not fulfilling a contract. | 03:36 |
| cmaloney | Monument was a corporate album | 03:36 |
| lmorchard | Last FLA album I actually bought was Civilization | 03:37 |
| cmaloney | everything since has been pretty solid. | 03:37 |
| lmorchard | like in 2004 | 03:37 |
| lmorchard | Though I think I got Airmech too, but didn't realize it was FLA since it's also the sound track to a pretty neat game | 03:37 |
| cmaloney | hah | 03:37 |
| cmaloney | Artificial Soldier is quite good | 03:38 |
| cmaloney | IED is pretty good as well | 03:38 |
| cmaloney | https://plus.google.com/u/0/+AndrewChason/posts/Cbk4bukZ9CC | 03:39 |
| lmorchard | This should be good | 03:48 |
| cmaloney | lmorchard: Also congrats on finding Spock's Beard. They're an amazing band. | 04:03 |
| cmaloney | one of my favorites | 04:03 |
| jrwren | +1 on Skinny Puppy and Ogre | 04:04 |
| cmaloney | I lucked into them on some mailing list | 04:04 |
| cmaloney | (I think Dream Theater related) | 04:04 |
| cmaloney | and by the kindness of strangers someone sent me their first few albums | 04:04 |
| lmorchard | Yeah, I think I just randomly threw something at google like "give me another band like dream theater" and Spock's Beard came up | 04:05 |
| cmaloney | lmorchard: Familiar with King's X? | 04:05 |
| lmorchard | I'm somewhat amazed lately by Google returning useful stuff when I just vomit things into the search box | 04:05 |
| lmorchard | I want to say I listened to some of their stuff in the 90s | 04:06 |
| lmorchard | Oh probably the 80s, since I just peeked at wikipedia | 04:06 |
| cmaloney | yeah, that was their key-day. | 04:06 |
| cmaloney | hey-day. | 04:06 |
| lmorchard | and embarassingly enough in relation to Bill & Ted's Bogus Journey | 04:07 |
| cmaloney | gretchen goes to nebraska was 1989 | 04:07 |
| cmaloney | To me they're what Kansas would have been had Jimi Hendrix fronted them. | 04:07 |
| lmorchard | Huh, that's an interesting idea | 04:08 |
| cmaloney | and had they been a power-trio | 04:08 |
| cmaloney | http://www.dailymotion.com/video/x19t76c_king-s-x-performing-jimi-hendrix-s-manic-depression-at-woodstock-94_music | 04:11 |
| cmaloney | lmorchard: Also: http://www.reddit.com/r/progrockmusic/ | 04:42 |
| cmaloney | http://www.reddit.com/r/progmetal | 04:42 |
| cmaloney | Good morning | 13:36 |
| rick_h_ | morning | 13:36 |
| brousch | morn | 14:00 |
| brousch | rick_h_: You still here? I thought you left | 14:00 |
| rick_h_ | brousch: car arrives in an hour | 14:00 |
| rick_h_ | hopefully, never taken a metro car to the airport before | 14:00 |
| brousch | That's right. Flee before the snow storm. You can't handle the snow! | 14:01 |
| rick_h_ | oh yea...scared me | 14:01 |
| rick_h_ | spend $$ on snow blower than leave so I don't have to use it | 14:02 |
| rick_h_ | nothing worse than getting a new toy you can't use | 14:02 |
| brousch | Speaking of toys, my profit sharing bonus came in, so I'm ordering a N10 and wireless charger for my wife | 14:04 |
| brousch | I'll probably give my N7 to my son, sell the weak tablets, and get an N10 for myself | 14:04 |
| cmaloney | brousch: nice! | 14:10 |
| cmaloney | Hope they net something | 14:10 |
| brousch | They will: HP touchpad is still beloved by many, and Transformer Infinity is still worth something | 14:11 |
| cmaloney | brousch: You looking at the "Buy It Now" prices on Ebay? | 14:12 |
| brousch | I'll keep the Nook Color with CM as an Android 2.3 test device | 14:12 |
| brousch | cmaloney: Hah, no | 14:12 |
| ColonelPanic001 | cmaloney: good game, btw. | 16:02 |
| ColonelPanic001 | that was fun. Much better on mobile, the notifications made all the difference | 16:02 |
| brousch | Go? | 16:03 |
| cmaloney | ColonelPanic001: Actually I think you might have won that one | 17:13 |
| cmaloney | wasn't sure about that one stone | 17:13 |
| cmaloney | brousch: Yeah. | 17:13 |
| cmaloney | We've been doing a play-by-post game on the Dragon Go Server | 17:13 |
| cmaloney | ColonelPanic001: I have another game invite for you if you're interested. | 17:14 |
| cmaloney | I have a hard time determining what is considered a dead stone | 17:14 |
| cmaloney | and I wish the computer was better at picking those out | 17:14 |
| cmaloney | ColonelPanic001: And yeah, it was a good game. Thank you for the chance to play against a real human | 17:15 |
| cmaloney | I won one game against GNUGo with the highest handicap I could get. It was rather surreal | 17:16 |
| cmaloney | It just started passing after I made a pretty major capture | 17:16 |
| rick_h_ | brousch: wireless charger for it? That's got to be a pita to use | 17:30 |
| rick_h_ | brousch: I got https://www.amazon.com/gp/css/order-history/ref=ohs_order_orderid?ie=UTF8&hasWorkingJavascript=1&opt=ab&qid=&search=105-5667181-1176227&sr= and like it | 17:31 |
| ColonelPanic001 | cmaloney: sure, I'll try and remember to start it up later | 17:51 |
| cmaloney | ColonelPanic001: Cool | 17:57 |
| * cmaloney played another quick game at lunch. 5 handicap vs. Gnu Go on 9x9. Managed to get ahead again and gain territory. | 17:57 | |
| cmaloney | I look forward to the day when I can win on 9x9 without training wheels. | 17:58 |
| cmaloney | The 19x19 board without training wheels seems a long way off. :) | 17:58 |
| ColonelPanic001 | heh | 17:59 |
| cmaloney | https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-aQAuN_2gbUk/Us50rhHwasI/AAAAAAAAGCE/BaQYOu8M-Cc/w299-h775-no/9_3_coding.jpg | 17:59 |
| ColonelPanic001 | I like the one for latex | 18:00 |
| cmaloney | My only regret with LaTeX is I don't have many uses for it on a daily basis | 18:02 |
| cmaloney | but I know that if I ever decide to publish RPG stuff it'll all be done in LaTeX. | 18:02 |
| cmaloney | unless it's for Steve Jackson Games because they have some funky Word template they use. | 18:03 |
| cmaloney | ;) | 18:03 |
| lmorchard | cmaloney: Getting into Go? | 18:25 |
| brousch | rick_h_: I can't see that link since it looks like a link to your order. I guess this charger isn't wireless, just magnetic http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00D8IC2IY/ref=oh_details_o01_s00_i00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 | 18:26 |
| rick_h_ | brousch: ah ic | 18:26 |
| rick_h_ | http://www.amazon.com/Original-Cable-Google-Faster-Charge/dp/B00D7NZLK6/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1391192799&sr=8-1&keywords=nexus+10+pogo+charger is what I got, something like it | 18:26 |
| brousch | looks similar, but without a dock | 18:27 |
| rick_h_ | but yea, a pogo cable that's magnetic but no dock | 18:27 |
| rick_h_ | I've got it in a case and such and not sure how a dock would work | 18:27 |
| rick_h_ | because I want the case to stand it up when movie watching/playing games for the boy | 18:27 |
| rick_h_ | http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B009RZPH1G/ref=wms_ohs_product?ie=UTF8&psc=1 | 18:27 |
| brousch | I have that for N7 | 18:28 |
| brousch | Well, similar | 18:28 |
| rick_h_ | still fits in a dock? | 18:28 |
| brousch | No. The Touchpad has a wireless charging dock that makes it nice to grab and use | 18:29 |
| brousch | I wanted similar for the N10 | 18:29 |
| cmaloney | lmorchard: Yeah, a little bit | 18:36 |
| cmaloney | If it's good enough for Nolan Bushnell to name his company after it I figure I should give it a go. ;) | 18:36 |
| brousch | http://laughingsquid.com/nasty-icons-a-collection-of-50-very-rude-vector-icons/ | 18:43 |
| brousch | Replace bookie icons with those | 18:49 |
| jrwren | zomg, alt-left and alt-right changes windows? is this tmux default or byobu? | 19:11 |
| jrwren | its byobu | 19:11 |
| jrwren | pretty nice | 19:11 |
