11:52:35 <Morbus> i can visit your house, but we can't go bowling together.
11:52:48 <nslater> how come?
11:52:55 <Morbus> cos it sucks ballz? ;)
11:53:41 <nsh> Morbus in the yukay!?!?
11:54:33 <Morbus> i wonder how to get in on the beta.
11:54:46 <nsh> .gs beta-*
11:54:47 <phenny> beta-*: No results!
11:54:51 <nsh> pft
11:55:19 <nslater> meh
11:55:30 <nsh> tsht
11:55:38 <nslater> what I really want, what I really really want, is to be able to fire up the web browser from within a game
11:55:39 <nsh> and other such nondescripts
11:55:47 <nslater> it's absurd that it wont let me
11:55:49 <nsh> you're a strange one noah
11:55:54 <nslater> why?
11:56:04 <Morbus> lol.
11:56:04 <Morbus> http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dHlYzs7XMfI
11:56:07 <nsh> games are where you go to escape the tubulars
11:56:11 <Morbus> (that's gta4)
11:56:15 <nslater> you're playing a game, run into some problems, press a button, bring up google, find the solution
11:56:33 <nslater> instead, i have to run downstairs and use my computer, which is fail
11:56:47 <nsh> oh, i was the assume PC game
11:56:47 <nslater> Morbus: heh
11:56:54 <nsh> people still play on con-soles!?
11:57:16 <nslater> consoles is where it's at, boyo
11:57:49 <Morbus> nsh: ideally, consoles are becoming as powerful, and more integrated, than PCs nowadays.
11:57:57 <Morbus> i find a better gaming experience there, at least.
11:58:05 * nsh was being fatuous
11:58:08 <nslater> well, my ps3 is more powerful than my desktop
11:58:19 <nslater> way more powerful
11:58:38 <nsh> but moar srsrly, i don't like the idea of closed systems
11:58:42 <nslater> and it has an input device designed for playing game
11:58:53 <nslater> keyboards are suboptimal, I don't care what you say
11:58:59 <nslater> nsh: define closed?
11:59:29 <nsh> not open-ended, owner can only utilise in a manner dictated by a third party with a vested financial interest
11:59:36 <nsh> es claro?
12:00:04 <nsh> the co-opting of property into service
12:00:11 <nsh> for the perpetuation of profit
12:00:14 <nslater> comercial computer games are a funny area if you ask me. they cost so much to produce (millions and millions of dollars these days) that the only serious offerings are non-free and already signed up for whatever closed system is out there - so arguing for free software games and open platforms is a bit mute, dont you think?
12:00:22 *** mmmmmrob has quit ()
12:01:04 <nsh> pretty self-fulfilling advocative prophecy mah droog
12:01:44 <nsh> it's ok that the system is oligopolised because there's no-one else making use of it
12:01:59 <nslater> yeah, I realise... I'm not saying it would be a bad thing, just that I don't see what it would buy us in the short term - it's a weird area, and a weird thing to talk about when games are starting to cost as much as movies to pull of properly
12:02:05 <clsn> It's not about free vs non-free software. A desktop is general-purpose computing oomph. A gaming system lacks the flexibility and the ability to be used for anything.
12:02:28 <nslater> clsn: o really? I can install ubuntu on my ps3
12:03:05 <nsh> hobbyism was the impetus behind the computer revolution, s'all i'm sayin
12:03:05 <nslater> which means I could pretty much use it for anything I wanted
12:03:05 <Arnia> nslater: silly argument that. You *can* install it, but how much then works with it?
12:03:05 <Arnia> Installation doesn't mean usable system
12:03:06 <nslater> Arnia: I should imagine most things
12:03:12 <nslater> Arnia: oh no, it is a usable system
12:03:12 <clsn> cool. shows how much I know about gaming systems. still, at best you wind up with a dual-boot system, which is a lot less convenient.
12:03:22 <Arnia> (although that depends what you define as usable I suppose)
12:03:34 <nslater> no no, it is intended that you can install other operating systems
12:03:40 <nslater> ubuntu works just fine without any hacking
12:03:49 * Arnia looks sceptical
12:03:54 <Arnia> What target?
12:03:59 <nslater> there is even a menu in the official playstation interface about installing other operating systems
12:04:09 <nsh> that's pretty sweet
12:04:35 <Arnia> I suppose my question then would be 'why would you want to?'
12:05:13 <nslater> well, one person says "it's a closed system, thats bad", I point out it isn't and now I have to justify why anyone would care that it isn't... feels like I'm fighting a loosing battle :)
12:05:31 * Arnia has no objections to closed systems per se
12:06:20 <nslater> well, I couldn't possibly speak for the people who do install ubuntu, or windows or whatever else they like, because I havn't done so and I can't imagine my self wanting to

12:14:13 <nslater> so, I found a charity called LOL the other day
12:14:21 <nslater> .wik Locks of Love
12:14:21 <phenny> "Locks of Love is a non-profit charity based in the United States." - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Locks_of_Love
12:14:28 <nslater> "The organization accepts donations of human hair and money, with the stated intention of making wigs for needy children who have lost their hair due to a medical condition."
12:14:35 <clsn> Hey! I donated my hair to them two years ago I think.
12:14:39 <nslater> LOL
12:14:45 <nslater> sounds creepy
12:14:47 <clsn> Didn't put together the acronym though.
12:15:40 <nslater> they dont accept dreadlocks apparently
12:15:50 <clsn> Well, collecting cast-off human body-parts does tend to go against our expectations, but it isn't that bizarre.
12:16:24 <nsh> wtf
12:16:30 <nslater> "Locks of Love has received criticism for its practice of selling donated hair, rather than using it in wigs as the donors expect. According to a 2003 report by the Better Business Bureau’s Wise Giving Alliance, in 2002 alone Locks of Love had raised over $150,000 by selling donated hair and had received another $213,000 in charitable contributions and grants, but provided only 113 human-hair and 39 synthetic wigs."
12:16:31 <nsh> wtf
12:16:36 <nslater> sounds like scam to me
12:16:40 <nslater> a very weird scam
12:16:43 <nslater> but scam non the less
12:16:44 <nsh> that's fucking genius
12:16:53 <clsn> Huh. That is weird.
12:17:15 <clsn> I hope it wasn't them that I donated to, then. :)
12:17:35 <nslater> "Though the representatives and show hosts normally suggest that the hair collected during the show will go into a wig, that the wigs are given free of charge to children with cancer, neither of these outcomes are guaranteed."
12:17:41 <nslater> oh man, I might set up a charity like that
12:18:01 <nslater> "give me your money and dead skin, I will use it to help starving children, probably"
12:18:27 <clsn> Don't say "probably". Then they can catch you lying if the probability is under 50%.
12:18:30 <clsn> Say "maybe"
12:18:38 <nslater> truedat

13:53:33 <Morbus> nope, i'm fine now,
13:53:36 <Morbus> i have 9 trophies.
13:53:41 <Morbus> is it still only showing 2?

13:54:50 <Morbus> sounds like you have 10, then?

13:59:14 <Morbus> there's a local co-op mode, yes.
13:59:20 <Morbus> and then a online co-op for $4.99, i think.
13:59:28 <Morbus> and that's the one with the trophy.
14:00:08 <Morbus> http://www.ps3trophies.org/game/super-stardust-hd/guide/

14:00:36 <Morbus> yeah, i think so.
14:00:41 <Morbus> i don't have a second controller yet.
14:00:56 <jsled> Right right. I tried the 45 sec trophy like 5 times before looking at the guide last night to realize it requires the expansion.
14:01:03 <jsled> They really should list that shit in the info.
14:01:03 <Morbus> hehehe
14:01:17 <Morbus> they do, exactly - they list the mode prior to the achievement.
14:01:23 <Morbus> "Survivial"
14:01:29 <Morbus> there's no Survival mode in the default game.
14:01:47 <jsled> Well, if you realize that's a Game Mode and not just a generic category. :p

14:06:05 <jsled> There's a new expansion that has a ship editor and a 5.1 orchestral soundtrack.
14:06:13 <Morbus> yeah, is that the Solo Pack?
14:06:18 <Morbus> there are some trophies in there too.
14:06:19 <jsled> So I guess I'm dropping $10 on SSDHD this week.

18:17:48 <nslater> Yes. You know why? Because when you masturbate what do you have to think of? You're not thinking of pure thoughts when you masturbate but more so fornication, porn, or unclean thoughts. God's word, the Bible reminds us to "Keep abstaining from the unclean thing".
18:17:49 <MoiraA> I am sick
18:17:52 <nslater> It also reminds of to abstain from fornication, adultery, etc., so masturbation is obviously not having marital intercourse with your spouse, so it is not from God; it is from what is not from God. If we are to keep ourselves clean and upright, worthy of God's new system after Armageddon, we can make this sacrifice and keep our thoughts busy with good works and godly deeds. We must work diligently to keep ourselves of clean and sound mind and ...
18:17:58 <nslater> ... judgment for those drawing close to God he will draw close to you. You then will be worthy of his gift of everlasting life free of illness, sin and death.
