05:18:22 [Puyopuyo]I think I killed a window by hitting it with 60 tabs.
05:18:32 [Puyopuyo]Looks like it safely recovered.
05:18:35 [Puyopuyo]Let's add some more!
05:19:03 [Puyopuyo]Nathan, smart people just type /ns
05:19:09 [Puyopuyo]Forget /nickserv
05:19:32 [nathanbp]:(
05:19:43 [nathanbp] /ns doesn't work for me
05:19:46 [Puyopuyo]Really?
05:19:50 [Puyopuyo]Your client sucks.
05:19:54 [Puyopuyo]/ns rocks
05:20:21 [Puyopuyo]I am also amused by how much Nathan/Chescheir conversation I managed to miss.
05:21:05 [Puyopuyo]Also, with respect to hacking the 3DS...has it honestly been hacked? I thought it just ran R4s because of legacy hardware.
05:21:22 [Puyopuyo]So Nathan, has ANBU continued to fail you?
05:21:30 [nathanbp]yes :(
05:21:43 [Puyopuyo]Boooo!
05:22:30 [AChes]if 7 comes out I' switching to someone else
05:23:15 [Pipian]Puyopuyo: Well yeah. But that doesn't make retarded comments less retarded
05:24:11 [Puyopuyo]Ian: Won't disagree that the comment was stupid and nonsensical.
05:24:35 [Puyopuyo]http://www.nytimes.com/2011/03/02/us/02volunteers.html <- The solution to our budget problems with respect to public services.
05:26:22 [Pipian]Well duh
05:26:27 [Pipian]The Free Market solution!
05:26:28 [Pipian]It'll work!
05:26:53 [AChes]the free market solution, hope people will do it for free?
05:27:11 [Pipian]Well yeah
05:27:17 [Pipian]If people want police protection
05:27:23 [Pipian]Obviously people will volunteer to do it for free
05:33:39 [Puyopuyo]Oh hey, Ian, Pokemon Black & White Aussie...not Region Locked.
05:46:03 [Pipian]Neat to know
05:46:40 [Pipian](I mean it's not DSi-only I don't think?)
05:47:14 [Puyopuyo]It's not, but the Japanese version of the game is locked to not work in DSis.
05:47:22 [Puyopuyo]Well, American or Aussie DSis.
05:47:25 [Pipian]Ah
05:47:29 [Puyopuyo]The Aussie versions work in Japanese DSis for some reason.
05:47:35 [Pipian]Huh.
05:47:48 [Puyopuyo]We're suspecting that it's developer-based region-locking, and not hardware-based.
05:47:58 [Pipian]Innaresting
05:48:09 [Pipian]One of these days
05:48:17 [Pipian]I will make it through the E4 on that Nuzlocke run
05:48:28 [Pipian]When I have an evening to try about 10 times
05:49:08 [Puyopuyo]Nooo! My top percentage of Rattata!
05:55:45 [nathanbp]haha chapter 134 of TWGOK is tittled Strike Witches
06:00:10 [Pipian]No chapter next week :-|
06:09:12 [AChes]I finished making some beer today. If folks were interested I could probaly find a way to bring a littl to pax
06:10:03 [Puyopuyo]Making your own is pretty cool. One of my relatives does that as a hobby.
06:10:32 [Puyopuyo]Not a drinker myself though.
06:12:43 [Pipian]As long as it's not like this
06:12:44 [Pipian]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zXhw28Mz4n4&feature=player_detailpage#t=479s
06:13:32 [AChes]Mitchell and webb is fine stuff
06:13:42 [Pipian]It is
06:13:43 [AChes]I'd hope mine is better than than
06:13:44 [Pipian]I should watch more
06:13:57 [Pipian]But I sorta didn't follow up after my brother showed me the first few
06:14:02 [AChes]have you seen "Peep SHow"?
06:14:13 [Pipian]Dunno
06:14:22 [AChes]it's another show they are is
06:14:23 [AChes]in
06:14:34 [Pipian]Probably not then
06:14:54 [AChes]it's a kind of odd sitcom
06:16:42 [Puyopuyo]I liked "they are is" better.
06:17:03 [Puyopuyo]Only because now I've got Brit grammar stuck in my head.
06:17:16 [Puyopuyo]And this is lower middle class Brit grammar, not proper Her Majesty's English.
06:18:35 [Pipian]you know what
06:18:45 [Pipian]If this could be silk-screened on a t-shirt
06:18:51 [Pipian]I would actually consider getting it
06:18:53 [Pipian]Just because
06:18:54 [Pipian]http://phuzion.mirror.waffleimages.com/files/a6/a68d347458b17cf0603fb3052ede4e885f8f7d5e.png
06:19:47 [AChes]I don't see why not, I think the text is a slightly different color though
06:19:58 [AChes]also what is it about?
06:20:36 [Pipian]Touhou
06:20:47 [AChes]I should always guess that
06:21:38 [Puyopuyo]Nah, that's a bad conclusion.
06:22:15 [Puyopuyo]...oh, Youkai Jesus.
06:22:24 [Puyopuyo]Yeah, didn't play UFO
06:22:52 [nathanbp]aren't they doing a real Touhou anime?
06:22:58 [nathanbp]that will make the characters eligible for saimoe?
06:22:59 [Puyopuyo]"real"
06:23:17 [Puyopuyo]I don't know about thaaaat.
06:23:29 [Pipian]If Maikaze didn't qualify
06:23:37 [Pipian]Pretty sure the Animate thing won't
06:24:04 [Puyopuyo]Quick Nathan, learn how to set yourself on fire with manly passion for your job.
06:24:19 [nathanbp]that would take some work
06:24:46 [Puyopuyo]You can do it! I believe in Keroro who doesn't give a damn about you!
06:24:54 [nathanbp]can I set myself on fire with manly passion for The Wise Man's Fear instead?
06:25:07 [nathanbp]haha Sam
06:25:07 [Puyopuyo]You don't have manly passion for The Wise Man's Fear
06:25:09 [Puyopuyo]ONLY DESPAIR.
06:26:24 [nathanbp]we've gone from Animate to Gurren Lagann to Zetsubou sensei?
06:28:16 [Puyopuyo]I mostly lump them together.
06:28:56 [nathanbp]that's a pretty mishapen lump
06:29:48 [nathanbp]wow way to end on a cliffhanger with no chapter next week
06:30:29 [Puyopuyo]Not really.
06:31:03 [Puyopuyo]Animate is about manly passion. Gurren Lagann is about manly passion. Zetsubou sensei is about unmanly passion...in a negative sense.
06:33:39 [nathanbp]well I don't really know that much about Zetsubou sensei so I'll just have to assume you're right
06:42:11 [AChes]how good is MAria Holic 2 likely to be? ie. should I watch 1?
06:42:50 [Puyopuyo]...
06:42:59 [Puyopuyo]I am not really qualified to answer that, as I hated 1.
06:43:19 [Puyopuyo]It had a few good instances, but mostly it was just Shaft being Shaft and a stupid series with unlikeable characters being stupid and unlikeable.
06:43:55 [Puyopuyo]I find tsundere difficult to tolerate normally. With the premise of their trap being tsundere...the show was not entertaining.
06:46:14 [AChes]that does not sound too appealing
06:47:29 [Puyopuyo]Well, it's shaft-random...and the main character is a pushover.
06:48:12 [Puyopuyo]The "love interest" is essentially this abusive asshole who is a jerk to everyone because...well, he can get away with it. (Or we can justify this with a "It's a hard shell he must put on to deal with his difficult lifestyle etc. etc." but that's pretty much bull.)
06:48:39 [Puyopuyo]And pretty much everyone else DOESN'T MATTER. Their subplots are unmemorable and mostly viewed through the kaleidoscope of pushover.
06:49:07 [Puyopuyo]It's one of those series where I'm hoping there's a Nice Boat at the end.
06:52:44 [AChes]yeah next seaon isn't inspiring glee
06:52:59 [AChes]TIGER&BUNNY could be an amusing train wreck

13:08:45 [nathanbp]hey we said that about this season too
13:09:43 [nathanbp]Although at the moment the only standouts for next season are STEINS;GATE and the new harem show from the Shuffle! people >_>
13:09:58 [nathanbp]and TWGOK S2 which might be better than S1 as it features better characters
13:11:57 [nathanbp]Ano Hi Mite Hana no Namae o Boku-tachi wa Mada Shiranai and Hana-Saku Iroha probably have potential too (and for everyone, unlike those previous 3 which are probably more like "Oh, Nathan" shows >_>;; )

17:05:03 [Puyopuyo]* Puyopuyo watches the Keynote.
17:39:47 [nathanbp|work]don't do it Sam!
17:39:53 [Puyopuyo]Why not?
17:39:55 [nathanbp|work]It'll eat your brain?
17:40:14 [Puyopuyo]Nah.
17:40:22 [nathanbp|work]I've been informed that this link contains chapter 1 of Ghost Story (the next Dresden Files book): http://us.penguingroup.com/static/pages/extras/ghoststory/index.html
17:40:39 [nathanbp|work]I'll probably just wait for it to come out tho

20:35:08 [Puyopuyo]Oh?
20:35:10 [nathanbp|work]And everyone still regrets grabbing an iPad cause they're freaking useless
