@mavica I love it

@revolverocelot honestly the only reason we haven't so far is that it's really hard to set fire to stuff underwater

@revolverocelot there's a theory that the next species to conquer the earth will be octopuses

so... uh... hi, I'm your new overlord

@mavica 🌽

@mavica I've got an ebay alert going for OEM mavica spares but nothing's come up so far so unfortunately the bodge of additional lenses will have to do

both are fruit, but while an apple has a thin peel and firm flesh, an orange has a much thicker peel and far juicier flesh

there, I just compared apples to oranges

so the government is telling people to "use [their] common sense" in measures to contain the virus

yeah

we're all gonna die aren't we?

@codl nor have I

I was under the impression that's what it was for, but :blobshrug:

to be honest the only reason I have a pgp key is the vague feeling that I should probably have one, never actually used it for anything

@codl ah, so they're focusing on ways to make a perfectly serviceable keyserver worse

that explains why they all seem to be building stuff on blockchain

@kirby I recall something about chat, yeah

I'm not sure why as encrypted chat apps are everywhere and it doesn't really need building in to a keyserver

Was there something like auto-updates of keys? That sounds like something, although that could also be accomplished with a Very Small Shell Script

So I'm seeing people start building replacements for keybase now that it's been bought by zoom

Is that not just a keyserver? Or have I been unaware of some features that keybase had?

@Fliss_the_Squid ah, that's pirate metal, I was thinking more What Shall We Do With the Drunken Sailor by way of Pendulum

new musical genre that's a combination of nautical shanties and hardcore

I call it sea bass

@timleach @jk but... all those wizards are using quills

that's like, the one place where a penknife is completely required

@noelle this sounds like it should be one of those test pangram things but doesn't include all the letters

@cassolotl yeah, none of that has any relation to "stay alert"

"basic infection control and distancing, motherfuckers" would be a far better slogan

"Dorset knob-eating contest to be held online"

:thaenkin: would appealing a case to the supreme court of the usa be considered a Constitution saving throw?
