cmaloney | how's the day so far? | 13:58 |
rick_h | wheeeee | 13:59 |
jrwren | just getting started. Good morning. | 13:59 |
jrwren | How about with you, cmaloney ? | 13:59 |
cmaloney | Getting started as well | 13:59 |
cmaloney | just ate breakfast and am awaiting coffee | 13:59 |
* rick_h agrees coffee is a good idea | 13:59 | |
jrwren | what was for breakfast? | 13:59 |
cmaloney | debating on whether or not to go to the doc for a sinus thing that has been going on over a week | 14:00 |
cmaloney | which gets better during the day and then gets worse at night | 14:00 |
brousch | cmaloney: Did you see https://dadabots.bandcamp.com/album/coditany-of-timeness ? | 14:06 |
cmaloney | Checking | 14:19 |
cmaloney | Yes | 14:19 |
cmaloney | They claim no copyright / fair use on it, but I'm not sure I agree with that assessment | 14:20 |
brousch | I just found the concept interesting: black metal generated by AI | 14:21 |
cmaloney | Yeah, that's more thought than some bands put into it for sure | 14:21 |
cmaloney | "chang chang chang chang chang chang chang chang chang chang chang chang chang chang chang chang" | 14:22 |
cmaloney | "oooooooooOOOOOOOOOOORRrrrrrrrrrrrrreewwwwwaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaayyyyyyyyyyyyyy" | 14:22 |
cmaloney | rick_h: http://www.californiatypewriter.com/shop/white-olympia-sm-3 | 17:18 |
cmaloney | You don't need this. :) | 17:18 |
rick_h | Lol | 17:19 |
rick_h | cmaloney: what kind of enabler are you :p | 17:19 |
cmaloney | Now, if it was a VT101 terminal... | 17:20 |
rick_h | lol | 17:21 |
rick_h | Tom Hanks in the show is great. | 17:21 |
rick_h | Seeing him geek out was so much fun | 17:21 |
cmaloney | Is there an actual show about typewriters? | 17:22 |
* cmaloney isn't culturally savvy anymore | 17:22 | |
rick_h | cmaloney: there's the documentary I mentioned called California typewriter I watched | 17:23 |
rick_h | That was what I was talking about in the Twitter post | 17:23 |
cmaloney | Ah, OK. | 17:23 |
cmaloney | I figured there was some form of connection | 17:24 |
cmaloney | and yes, I think the typewriter is an wesome no-frills writing device | 17:24 |
rick_h | http://m.imdb.com/title/tt5966990/ | 17:24 |
cmaloney | but damn | 17:24 |
cmaloney | If you really want a nice single-tasker get Atari Writer. ;) | 17:24 |

brousch | I brought a typewriter to college with me. Used it a lot before I learned how to computer and print | 17:26 |
cmaloney | As soon as I had a printer and AtariWriter I was pretty much spoiled for anything that wasn't a wordprocessor | 17:27 |
cmaloney | write it by hand? Screw that. | 17:27 |
brousch | I still like to write by hand, but not typewriter. | 17:28 |
rick_h | Yea but I love my fountain pens. I want less screens not more. | 17:28 |
cmaloney | Yeah, I like writing with pens too | 17:30 |
brousch | I prefer pencils | 17:30 |
_stink_ | gtfo | 17:30 |
cmaloney | Yeah, I like mechanical pencils | 17:31 |
brousch | pens are messy and slow | 17:31 |
brousch | and hard to erase | 17:31 |

brousch | wow | 17:33 |

greg-g | So, I bought Rowan a hobby quality level RC truck for xmas (er, it's from Santa). ECX brand. It came today and I'm so excited I can't wait until xmas. :) | 22:58 |
greg-g | it's on the slower side (25 mph instead of 30+) but it has a higher clearance than other 1/18th scale ones (and i didn't want to spend the money to go up to the 1/10th scale ones) | 22:59 |
jrwren | awesome. | 23:00 |
jrwren | I thought about getting something liek that for my kiddo for christmas this year, but I don't know if she'd love it or not. | 23:00 |
greg-g | (continuing thought) and I can upgrade battery/motors for more speed, but harder to upgrade ground clearance | 23:02 |
rick_h | greg-g: cool stuff | 23:17 |
