09:51 Raihosha I see people...
09:52 zf what, did you see non people before?
09:53 Raihosha Yep, I saw no-people before.;)
09:53 zf then you were disctracted for a while
09:54 zf how goes things?
09:55 Raihosha Fairly well. My doctor tells me I need to work on my diet and lose a bit of weight...
09:56 Raihosha And I was right... if dooky is here, then he has updated Amazoness!
09:56 zf ooo.
09:56 zf i usually check in the morning
09:58 Raihosha So did I... but I checked again when I saw dooky.
10:08 zf those borders have an interesting effect
10:09 Raihosha You mean looking like photos?
10:09 zf no...
10:09 zf like a cloud border, i think
10:10 zf cause my mind suddenly goes to "happy somewhat-distant story time"
10:11 Raihosha Oh, the gradient at the sides.
10:12 zf yeah
10:12 zf border is at the sides, yes?
10:12 zf also, i finished doctor who the other night
10:13 Raihosha Yes, I get the "memory time" with the "old photos" , but the happy doesn't come across to me because of the color palette.
10:13 Raihosha Oh? How'd you like it?
10:14 zf ^_^
10:15 zf i got lee to start watching it
10:15 Raihosha Oh? We grab yet another one to the cult? ^_^
10:16 zf hehe i hope so
10:17 zf i watched 3 entire ST shows with him
10:17 zf so now he can watch something he likes anyway
10:18 Raihosha AH ha.
10:18 UltraMatt heya
10:18 zf hee, i'm crafty, ne?
10:19 UltraMatt you need to start watching classics, ZF :P
10:19 Raihosha Hi Matt.
10:19 UltraMatt hey..just glad to be here right now
10:19 zf we've been over that
10:19 zf torchwood first
10:20 UltraMatt *nods*
10:20 UltraMatt actually I was just going to put in some DW :P
10:20 zf mostly cause i've seen most of season 2 already
10:20 UltraMatt to cheer myself up after a scary morning
10:21 zf ...why are there spaces after your name?
10:21 UltraMatt I have no clue
10:21 Raihosha Scary morning, Matt? What happened? (I assume this is prat of your "just glad to be here" statement?
10:21 UltraMatt my dad went to the hospital after suffering a diabetic fit on the road
10:22 Raihosha Ouch. THat's scary, indeed.
10:22 UltraMatt yeah..I only found out about it..right when I woke up
10:22 zf did they say he's going to be okay, though?
10:22 UltraMatt yeah. he's back home now
10:23 UltraMatt he just needed to get his blood suger back to normal
10:23 zf he is actually diabetic, then?
10:23 Raihosha So he didn't crash the car...
10:24 UltraMatt yes he is, ZF
10:24 UltraMatt no, luckly
10:24 UltraMatt he was forced off the road though..he doesn't remember any of it
10:24 zf that's probably a good thing
10:24 UltraMatt that's how bad it was
10:25 UltraMatt buuuut now I'm just trying to be cheery again
10:26 Raihosha Well, Matt, have you finished the most recent season?
10:26 UltraMatt YES
10:27 UltraMatt that was an awesome ending
10:27 zf hee it was
10:27 UltraMatt I'm glad they tied up the storylines the way they did
10:28 zf leaves everything free for the future
10:28 Raihosha Yes indeed. I'd rate it at Shinji-level awesomeness. :D
10:28 Raihosha With Moffat coming in, leaving a clean slate is a good move by Davies.
10:28 UltraMatt oh...
10:29 UltraMatt did you hear who's going to appear in Sarah Jane Adventures??
10:29 zf though i've been wondering, what they're going to do when they get to the end of the doctor's regenerations. i mean, they can only have like 2 more actors
10:29 Raihosha No. When does season 2 start?
10:29 zf oh, stop adding to my list
10:29 UltraMatt well..it's a bit of a spoiler...
10:29 UltraMatt so maybe I should post the info up in the box
10:30 zf so message him if he wants to know
10:30 UltraMatt oooh
10:30 UltraMatt forgot
10:30 Raihosha That woorks...
10:30 zf RP box is still public, we can seeeee it
10:32 UltraMatt but yeah
10:32 UltraMatt I should rewatch Season 3 sometime...didn't see much of it
10:33 UltraMatt I think in fact..I only saw three of the stories
10:34 UltraMatt I hope Moffat does a good job
10:34 zf yes, you should watch all those episodes you skipped
10:35 Raihosha As to your question zf... Well, The Master has managed the feat, and given that The Doctor is "the last" he may come up with something...
10:35 zf yeah, since there are no others to restrict him...
10:35 UltraMatt yeah
10:36 UltraMatt like fine a loophole
10:36 UltraMatt find
10:36 Raihosha And since this is the 10th Doctor, he has three more incarnations.
10:36 UltraMatt though I doubt The Doctor would do what The Master did to stay alive >>
10:36 zf 3 then
10:36 zf probably not, he's going to be restricted by his morals
10:37 Raihosha Well no, but if the High Council can grant a new cycle of incarnations (something they offered the Master once), and given the fact (as seen in the five doctors) that the "old " time lords had unlimited regenerations...
10:38 Raihosha I suspect the limit is more legal than biological...
10:38 zf ah
10:38 zf well then would that be bred in, or you just don't regenerate the last time?
10:38 UltraMatt ahhh
10:39 Raihosha I suspect there is some temporal component to the regeneration that might be blocked with tech...
10:39 zf yes, i was actually just thinking that
10:40 zf they have the technology to do it
10:40 Raihosha It is hard to say without knowing who the writer that will have to deal with it is... There are a number of solutions, picking one at this point is just speculation.
10:40 UltraMatt true
10:42 Raihosha And I just got an AD?
10:44 zf yeah, it happens ><
10:44 zf ><
10:44 zf hm...
10:44 zf it doesn't do the <
10:44 zf well, the other one
10:44 Raihosha >>
10:44 Raihosha <<
10:44 Raihosha You're right...
10:44 Raihosha <
10:45 zf that's the code for it?
10:45 Raihosha I think... &;lt
10:45 Raihosha One of those... it's tough to keep all that in biological memory...
10:46 Raihosha maybe ;<
10:46 zf ::fu
10:46 zf does that ad have to appear that often??
10:47 UltraMatt that one?
10:47 UltraMatt lately yes
10:47 UltraMatt just found out some more stuff about what happened..
10:47 zf well i don't think it's regular
10:47 zf oh?
10:47 UltraMatt apperently one whole side of the truck is smashed in
10:47 Raihosha It probably 1) is the only ad in rotation and 2) is set for a particular number of posts (of any length).
10:48 UltraMatt my dad's new truck
10:48 Raihosha Ouch.
10:48 UltraMatt by when then police rammed him off the road
10:48 UltraMatt *from
10:48 zf hopefully insurance will pay for it?
10:49 Raihosha It seems like the type of thing that they would cover...
10:49 UltraMatt hope so...but my dad's going to be pretty upset
10:49 UltraMatt that truck was practicly his entire life
10:49 Raihosha Well, he still has his life, so he can rebuild the truck.
10:50 UltraMatt he can't rebuild it
10:50 UltraMatt it's pretty much totaled
10:50 zf that bad?
10:50 Raihosha Replaced then...
10:51 UltraMatt yeah
10:51 UltraMatt plus he really doesn't care about his life >>
10:51 zf heh.
10:52 UltraMatt *pokes the ad*
10:52 Raihosha Ah. Well I'll hope he can be somewhat philosophical. At least he's okay.
10:53 Raihosha Happy thoughts, Matt, remember? ^__^
10:54 UltraMatt heh true
10:54 zf do you have a list of things that make you happy?
10:56 Raihosha Ye Gods! Look at this: [url=http://www.i4u.com/article18807.html]50megapixel CCD sensor[/url]
10:56 Raihosha
http://www.i4u.com/article18807.html
10:57 UltraMatt well sort of
10:58 UltraMatt ooo that's neat
10:58 Raihosha And here's something for Xadium to play with
http://www.lively.com/html/landing.html
10:58 Raihosha it seems like a perfect match for this place...
11:00 zf something else to make character stuff on...just what i need??
11:01 Raihosha ;P
11:02 zf actually, what i need is a mapmaker
11:03 Raihosha There aren't a lot out there, particularly if you want to do D&D-like maps. And most you have to pay for...
11:04 zf um...world/continent map
11:04 Raihosha Or rather you pay for all of the ones I've seen so far.
11:04 zf lol
11:04 zf i keep coming up with more things i need to do...
11:05 Raihosha I haven't found anything other than a random generator or two that do the continent scale thing...
11:05 zf OH. and biologist to tell me what's wrong with my physiology. that would be great, too.
11:06 Raihosha Err... hang on a moment, I do have a site that will help. ^_^
11:06 zf really?
11:07 zf cause i did up a thing on lupa physiology the other week and lee thought some of it was weird
11:08 Raihosha THis is a great resource: http://www.cix.co.uk/~morven/worldkit/
11:10 zf oo
11:10 zf thanks
11:10 zf ^_^
11:10 Raihosha I like it because it has lots of formulae as well as a discussion of how the formulae work.
11:11 zf ok
11:12 Raihosha As for weird physiology... I don't have links to any sites like that, unless you want a basic primer on evolution, since I'm a former bio major and didn't need to look for such a thing...
11:15 zf eh...what i'm actually most concernted about right now is internal body temperatures and whether a body built to survive the heat would naturally be lower or higher as the normal temp.
11:15 Raihosha I've also found
http://www.io.com/~sjohn/demog.htm
useful for population figures.
11:15 UltraMatt physiology is always tough for me
11:16 Raihosha Ah. An interesting question. It comes down to the point where your proteins cook...
11:17 zf well for example, vulcan is a desert planet, but their normal temp. is like 91*F
11:17 Raihosha But the basic body temp matters less than the ability to regulate that temp within a broad range.
11:17 zf but that really doesn't tell us how high their internal temp can get before it kills them
11:19 zf ok
11:19 zf that helps some
11:21 Yaijinden Oh gawd online courses why aren't you working so I can take this test and get on with my life.
11:21 zf aww. hi yai
11:21 Yaijinden /wave
11:21 Raihosha Hi Yai.
11:22 UltraMatt hi, yai
11:22 Yaijinden (faaaaaaaaawk)
11:22 Raihosha So, how's the time sense thing going? (Yes, I'm internets stalking you via your blog... ^__^)
11:23 Yaijinden Just about as it has been, really. All days are work days, whether they be spent in employment or education.
11:24 Yaijinden It's somewhere between annoying and infuriating.
11:24 Raihosha But, zf, I'd say anything you want between 85 and 120 degrees F, is reasonable as long as they can maintain it (and higher temps require more calories).
11:25 Yaijinden Eagerly looking forward to fall when I can start doing something I like (id est substituting again). Argh.
11:25 zf oo. that's good to know, actually...
11:25 Raihosha Yes, Days off are vital to a sense of well being. It's good enough for Gods, therefore it's good for we mortals as well. ^_^
11:25 Yaijinden (in the meantime, Blue Man Group radio on Pandora is keeping me from entering a murderous rage)
11:26 UltraMatt heh
11:27 Yaijinden LOOK OUT IT'S THE TALKATHON
11:27 Raihosha (murderous rages are a good thing to avoid.)
11:27 Yaijinden (at least when there aren't enemies with whom to douse said rage in)
11:28 Raihosha It is a bit annoying, isn't it.
11:28 Raihosha (or at least an excellent alibi when the police come by to ask about the bloody remains in the yard.)
11:28 Yaijinden Intrusive, even!
11:28 Yaijinden IN CROM'S NAME
11:29 zf Crom? What?
11:30 Yaijinden Clearly someone hasn't read nearly enough Conan in whatever media
11:30 Yaijinden dot period end sentence dot.
11:31 zf no, but i'm certainly familiar with another crom
11:31 Yaijinden Conan #0 in graphic novel format. Oh gawd. Crazy psycho kid.
11:31 Yaijinden Awesome crazy psycho kid.
11:31 Raihosha Or remembers the movie where Crom is mentioned as well.
11:31 Yaijinden Clearly!
11:32 zf Crom is a Hold in the Pern stories, fyi
11:32 Yaijinden Nah, amn't referring that.
11:32 zf heh, didn't think so
11:32 starcat|ss2 Full stop!
11:33 Raihosha It is? I sort of remember that, I think. Trailing stop.
11:33 zf Fax's original hold was Crom
11:33 starcat|ss2 Crom nackers.
11:33 starcat|ss2 :x
11:33 UltraMatt hmm?
11:34 Raihosha Fax was the one who took over Ruatha hold, right? Jaxom was his child?
11:34 starcat|ss2 Crom nackers.
11:34 zf yesu
11:34 zf he had like ...7 Holds in his possession, i think? something like that?
11:35 Raihosha Yes, because of the "Long Interval"...
11:35 Raihosha 6 or 7.
11:35 zf because he forcibly took them over. though yeah, otherwise the weyrleaders would have been able to stop him politiclaly
11:36 starcat|ss2 Crom nom nom.
11:36 Raihosha Well, he wouldn't have WANTED to take them over if the memories of the Passes were clearer.
11:37 zf he might have, you never know
11:37 zf though i don't exactly remember his exact reasons at the moment
11:39 Raihosha This is true, but as he was written, he was ambitious, not an idiot. If the memories of the Passes were clear, well there were very good reasons that there was one leader to one hold.
11:39 zf anyways
11:39 UltraMatt yesh
11:40 Raihosha Right.
11:40 zf you haven't read any of these books have you, matt?
11:42 UltraMatt nope
11:43 zf you should read the harper hall books, you'd probably like them
11:43 Yaijinden (problem still existant)
11:43 Yaijinden (cold hate still building)
11:44 Raihosha Stay good, Yai!
11:44 UltraMatt sounds like it ^^
11:44 zf (ik. how long to you have to take the test)
11:44 starcat|ss2 stay good
11:45 starcat|ss2 or I will install a morality core to stop you from filling the building with deadly neurotoxin
11:45 starcat|ss2 <3
11:45 starcat|ss2 (L)
11:45 zf hehe
11:46 zf and i should get going. at least for now.
11:46 zf later peoples
11:46 Raihosha And the cake is still a lie... unless it's Thursday.
11:46 starcat|ss2 aw, bye.
11:46 Raihosha Later.
11:46 starcat|ss2 s'Friday. =<
11:46 Yaijinden /wave
11:47 starcat|ss2 But that's okay 'cause Friday I'm in love. ;D
11:47 Yaijinden >:|
11:47 Yaijinden ...
11:47 Yaijinden Oh I'm going to break something for its emoticons.
11:47 Yaijinden >=|
11:47 starcat|ss2 D:
11:48 Yaijinden I have another fifteen, twenty minutes. If it's not starting by then, I'm not going to have the time to take it AND go to work.
11:48 starcat|ss2 Possible to take it AT work?
11:49 starcat|ss2 ^(is it)
11:49 Yaijinden Afraid not. It'll damn-near require me to have the book to do anywhere reasonably at it.
11:49 starcat|ss2 Ahh.
11:49 Raihosha Explain the problem to the instructor?
11:49 Yaijinden Did so. I'm pretty sure he's working as he can.
11:50 starcat|ss2
http://mfrost.typepad.com/cute_overload/2008/07/wa…
Consolation giraffe lips. :<
11:50 starcat|ss2 >:
11:50 Raihosha Get an extension?
11:50 starcat|ss2 *hug*
11:51 Yaijinden There're a few days left to take it, honestly. But I really really really don't want to have to drive up to school again, and it irritates me that this may be necessary anyway.
11:53 Raihosha Well, let's avoid flooding any buildings with neurotoxin Yai. My sympathy for any plant that crosses your path, though. ^_^
11:53 Yaijinden Oh, it's not people who would suffer the brunt of my undying fury. It's inanimate objects that are causing me problems.
11:54 Yaijinden Subsequently, it's the inanimate objects that would delight in my crushing. Or me that would delight in my own crushing. Or something of that recursion.
11:55 starcat|ss2 let's install morality cores on them, then
11:55 starcat|ss2 then they won't ca--no never mind
11:55 starcat|ss2 that doesn't work that way
11:56 starcat|ss2
http://wrongdistance.com/?p=1937
but, uh...this is cool =D
11:57 Yaijinden That's actually pretty awesome.
11:59 Yaijinden Aww, baby sea turtles too.
12:00 starcat|ss2
http://0at.org/summer-2008.html
State of the Internet Address? Sure, why not?
12:01 Raihosha I must run. Later.
12:01 Yaijinden /wave
12:02 starcat|ss2 Ta
12:04 UltraMatt seeya
12:09 starcat|ss2 ergh
12:09 starcat|ss2 My hair is long enough to put it back into one ponytail :S
12:10 Yaijinden Is this a good thing or a bad thing or either specifically?
12:10 starcat|ss2 Bad.
12:10 starcat|ss2 well
12:10 starcat|ss2 And good-ish.
12:10 starcat|ss2 I hate having hair on my neck.
12:11 starcat|ss2 So I like to keep it short.
12:11 starcat|ss2 But if it's long enough to put it in a ponytail then I can keep it OFF my neck...
12:11 starcat|ss2 but I generally prefer two ponytails instead of one.
12:13 starcat|ss2 [/senselessbabble]
12:14 Yaijinden Isn't long enough for two thens?
12:16 starcat|ss2 It is.
12:17 starcat|ss2 It's just almost ALWAYS long enough for two because of the style I've got.
12:17 starcat|ss2 One is much trickier to accomplish.
12:17 Yaijinden Aaaaaaah.
12:17 starcat|ss2 It's a bob that's significantly shorter in the back.
12:18 starcat|ss2 So the back's got to get long before it'll all manage to reach to one point in the middle.
12:19 Yaijinden /sage nod
12:19 starcat|ss2 Haaaaair
12:19 starcat|ss2 It's much less important than I make it out to beeee
12:20 Yaijinden Hair can be pretti awesum tho.
12:20 starcat|ss2 Yarr.
12:27 Yaijinden And there ends my ability to wait for this to resolve itself. Time to waste the next while on the interbutts!
12:27 starcat|ss2 TV tropes is excellent for that.
12:31 Yaijinden I can only sift through TV Tropes for fifteen minutes before the smug postmodernism gets to me.
12:31 Yaijinden But oh those fifteen minutes.
12:35 starcat|ss2 =D
12:46 starcat|ss2 MoonPrincess!

16:13 starcat|ss2 What's nanami togarashi?
16:17 Bucket A blend of hot peppers, dried orange peel, ground seaweed and black sesame seeds. Japanese condiment.
16:18 Bucket Actually had to get up and check
16:18 Bucket Hot pepper, ginger, ground seaweed, ROASTED orange peel and black and yellow sesame seeds.
16:19 Bucket I saw this person at a farmer's market and found out he'd be there when my newspaper interviewed him and I was like ZOMG

21:06 Kuri-Kara lol, no, me ^_^ my friend threw me a surprise party and invited a bunch of our old friends and classmates over at his house ^_^
21:08 Kuri-Kara But I'm glad I have a chance to spend some time on here, I kinda missed everyone
21:34 Kuri-Kara Sorry to cut my visit short, but I need to pack, I'm going camping tomorrow
21:36 Kuri-Kara Bye
