19:41:29 <ehird`> bsmntbom1dood: that's what i was about to say
19:41:43 <SimonRC> hmm
19:41:49 <SimonRC> indeed
19:41:51 <ehird`> "calxist" returns someone who went into #osdev 2007
19:42:01 <ehird`> calxists returns you asking the same thing: http://tunes.org/~nef/logs/esoteric/07.07.13
19:42:09 <SimonRC> heh
19:42:17 <ehird`> elaborate? :)
19:42:26 <SimonRC> Too complicated to explain
19:42:28 <SimonRC> but
19:42:36 <bsmntbom1dood> oh come on
19:42:43 <bsmntbom1dood> you can't bring it up and not tell us what it is
19:42:47 <ehird`> yeah
19:42:50 <ehird`> that's illegal
19:43:25 <SimonRC> They do want it to be kept semi-queit
19:43:29 <SimonRC> ah, waitamo...
19:43:45 <ehird`> oh for hecks sake
19:43:48 <ehird`> if you want it to be quiet
19:43:51 <ehird`> stfu and don't mention it
19:43:54 <bsmntbom1dood> that's even worse
19:44:26 <SimonRC> http://conworlds.info/cwbb/viewtopic.php?p=2067#2067
19:44:52 <SimonRC> i was trying to remember who was the person/people here that were the founders
19:45:32 <ehird`> without reading a big (for forums) post, summarize it
19:45:34 <ehird`> calxism = ?
19:45:40 <bsmntbom1dood> owtf
19:45:47 <bsmntbom1dood> i broke my 1/8" to 1/4" adapter
19:46:04 <SimonRC> a philosophy
19:46:19 <bsmntbom1dood> conworld = constructed world?
19:46:23 <SimonRC> yes
19:46:29 <SimonRC> Sci-fi, in my case
19:46:32 <ehird`> calxism's core pillars of "LOL OK THIS IS TRUE:" = ?
19:46:38 <ehird`> name 3
19:46:39 <SimonRC> Calxism tries to use logic to get the results we want
19:46:45 <ehird`> that's called science
19:46:51 <SimonRC> no
19:47:21 <SimonRC> Calxism tries to derive things like "murder is forbidden" from its core premise
19:47:34 <ehird`> core premise =
19:47:39 <SimonRC> Actually it ends up deriving "murder should be really expensive"
19:47:42 <SimonRC> ah...
19:47:58 <ehird`> what's the core premise?
19:48:29 * SimonRC tries to think how to explain...
19:48:47 <ehird`> you have a philosophy based on a core premise you can't explain
19:48:52 <ehird`> congrats
19:50:10 <SimonRC> I didn't invent Calxism, I nicked it
19:50:26 <SimonRC> ok, i think this sums it up roughly: "It's more about making a decisicion on what goal we should follow based on incomplete information being a bad call now, I think. There may or may not be a goal, but we should learn as much as we can incase there's something we discover more goalworthy along the way. In other words, more information can never be a bad thing, so for lack of a goal we should learn. If we find a goal we can all aspire to, great, if we d
19:50:35 <SimonRC> (copypasta)
19:50:55 <SimonRC> The idea is that there may be an ultimate goal, if so we need to find it
19:51:02 <ehird`> how do you derive "murder = expensive" from that?
19:51:19 <SimonRC> The people I am lookingfor are the ones that were trying to write a book and start a country
19:51:25 <SimonRC> ehird`: waste of people
19:51:33 <ehird`> SimonRC: how does that follow from the above
19:51:46 <bsmntbom1dood> SimonRC: let's start a country!
19:51:48 <SimonRC> can't remember exactly, it was a while ago
19:51:50 <bsmntbom1dood> i've always wanted to do that
19:52:05 <SimonRC> they added some extra stuff to make an actual legal system
19:52:13 -!- bsmntbom1dood has changed nick to bsmntbombdood.
19:52:42 <SimonRC> the catchphrase "logical means to illogical ends" came up a few times
19:53:14 <SimonRC> I think they planned to give people some money-like stuff depending on how hard they worked, or something...
19:53:26 <bsmntbombdood> that's called capitalism
19:53:44 <ehird`> heh
19:53:50 <SimonRC> no, it is more restricted
19:53:53 <SimonRC> and more centralised
19:53:58 <bsmntbombdood> oh great
19:54:00 <SimonRC> there issome communism in there too
19:54:08 <bsmntbombdood> restriction and centralization, my favorite things
19:54:08 <ehird`> restricted centralized capitalism
19:54:10 <ehird`> just what we need
19:54:20 <bsmntbombdood> it's called "soviet union"
19:54:30 <ehird`> (... Communism, just what we need)
19:54:41 <SimonRC> they had some other stuff that actually made it sound almost workable
19:54:58 <SimonRC> and you could spend your "money" on things
19:55:07 <bsmntbombdood> omg!
19:55:15 <SimonRC> there was no crime as such, just really expensive stuff
19:55:33 <ehird`> do i have to spend money to go to the toilet?
19:55:39 <SimonRC> dunno
19:55:40 <bsmntbombdood> oh joy, so the RIAA can murder me if they want
19:55:42 <SimonRC> I didn;t invent it
19:55:45 <RodgerTheGreat> that's quite literally the definition of "money". A representative object or objects that can be exchanged for goods or services.
19:55:49 <bsmntbombdood> but i can't afford to fight back
19:56:00 <SimonRC> but it isn't inheritable for a start
19:56:11 <SimonRC> bsmntbombdood: I raised that point
19:56:43 <SimonRC> except I think it is personal and non-transferrable
19:56:54 <ehird`> non-transferrable money?
19:56:59 <ehird`> isn't that called... "rocks"?
19:57:00 <SimonRC> umm
19:57:09 <ehird`> or maybe... "air"?
19:57:12 <ehird`> how about "void"?
19:57:14 <bsmntbombdood> huh?
19:57:46 <bsmntbombdood> oh, right
19:57:49 <SimonRC> possibly there was some restriction on how you could transferr it
19:58:00 <SimonRC> anyway, I wasn't terribly convinced that such a country would work
19:58:11 <SimonRC> the channel has gone very quite
19:58:12 <RodgerTheGreat> money's entire function is in the act of transfer. You'd have to get pretty metaphysical and impractical to design an economy without monetary exchange.
19:58:26 <RodgerTheGreat> It'd make "money" more like karma.
19:58:48 <SimonRC> it wasn't exactly money, it was a measure of how much resources you werew allowed to use for your own leisure
19:59:14 <RodgerTheGreat> so basically a metric by which your value to society is measured.
19:59:15 <ehird`> this sounds like a very happyfun society
19:59:23 <ehird`> (Note: here be sarcasm)
19:59:35 <SimonRC> (the whole thing is a great illustration of "a little knowledge is a dangerous thing" here applied to philosohpy)
19:59:39 <SimonRC> ehird`: yup
19:59:49 <SimonRC> RodgerTheGreat: yes, ish
20:00:09 <RodgerTheGreat> "beancounting communism". interesting.
20:00:40 <bsmntbombdood> lol wut
20:00:49 <RodgerTheGreat> hahaha
20:00:50 <bsmntbombdood> this doesn't make any sense >_<
20:01:24 <RodgerTheGreat> http://www.nonlogic.org/dump/images/1190260876-inetargument.png
20:01:32 <ehird`> bsmntbombdood: you have to pay to go to the toilet, basically
20:02:06 <RodgerTheGreat> public bathrooms in Germany charge a small fee to contribute to the maintenance and cleaning of said bathroom.
20:02:33 <bsmntbombdood> bathrooms in america have to pay to hook up to the sewer and for flushing water
20:02:37 <SimonRC> RodgerTheGreat: damn I wish I were funny like you can be
20:02:56 <SimonRC> re the cartoon, i mean
20:03:04 <RodgerTheGreat> if that's sarcasm, it wasn't supposed to be amazing or anything
20:03:27 <bsmntbombdood> it wasn't sarcasm
20:03:35 <bsmntbombdood> was it?
20:03:39 <oklopol> i like the country i live in
20:03:46 <SimonRC> or rather, I mean that I was able to write+draw comics at all
20:03:52 <oklopol> although i've always wanted to live in one of those sex cults
20:03:53 <RodgerTheGreat> oh. then thanks. :)
20:04:01 <bsmntbombdood> oklopol: me too!
20:04:14 <ehird`> oklopol: i've always wanted to sex in one of those live cults
20:04:16 <bsmntbombdood> have you heard of dumba?
20:04:18 <ehird`> damn, that doesn't work
20:04:37 <oklopol> dumba?
20:04:51 <RodgerTheGreat> http://www.nonlogic.org/dump/images/1190338381-deal.png <- I liked this one better.
20:05:13 <bsmntbombdood> or seen shortbus?
20:07:11 <oklopol> shortbus seems nice
20:07:40 <SimonRC> "shortbus"?
20:07:45 <bsmntbombdood> a movie
20:08:25 <bsmntbombdood> any movie that's not a porno but starts off with an autofelatio scene has to be good
20:08:34 <SimonRC> a
20:08:36 <SimonRC> er
20:08:39 <SimonRC> never heard of it
20:08:52 <SimonRC> and you must have to be flexible to do that
20:08:59 <bsmntbombdood> yeah
20:09:03 <SimonRC> waitamo...
20:09:04 <SimonRC> hmm
20:09:13 * SimonRC feels that length of his ribcage
20:09:16 <SimonRC> *the
20:09:27 <SimonRC> the rib-cage can't bend...
20:09:35 <ehird`> remove your ribcage!
20:09:41 <RodgerTheGreat> IMDB trivia on "shortbus": "To make the actors more comfortable, the director and the cameramen were stripped naked while filming the orgy scene."
20:09:45 <SimonRC> and the vertebrae below it have a total length less than it...
20:09:50 <SimonRC> heh
20:10:04 <SimonRC> and it isn't porn?
20:10:09 <RodgerTheGreat> I don't want to know
20:10:13 <bsmntbombdood> i'll see if i can find a screenshot
20:10:33 <RodgerTheGreat> DO NOT WANT.

20:10:42 <RodgerTheGreat> aw, christ
20:10:50 <bsmntbombdood> some fag covered the penis though
20:11:07 <ehird`> bsmntbombdood: first thought: ouroboros
20:11:51 <bsmntbombdood> SimonRC: yeah, it's not porn
20:12:31 * SimonRC agrees with RodgerTheGreat
20:13:48 <bsmntbombdood> :(
20:13:58 * SimonRC wonders when it will become commercially possibleto re-activate the human tail genes
20:14:11 <SimonRC> they occasioanlly re-activate on their own
20:14:27 <RodgerTheGreat> it will be a wonderful day for furries and a dark day for every sane human on earth.
20:14:33 <ehird`> SimonRC: when all biologists become furries
20:14:35 <SimonRC> there are a very tiny number of people with monkey-like tails, about 30cm long
20:14:48 <bsmntbombdood> that's awesome
20:14:49 <RodgerTheGreat> I think ehird` and I are on the same wavelength here.
20:14:50 * SimonRC recalls the events of 2043
20:14:52 <bsmntbombdood> are they prehensile?
20:15:01 <SimonRC> bsmntbombdood: dunno
20:15:20 <SimonRC> they look ugly due to no fur
20:15:20 <ehird`> RodgerTheGreat: quick, detune
20:15:25 <ehird`> i don't like wave interference
20:15:34 * RodgerTheGreat smashes his head against a desk
20:15:44 <SimonRC> RodgerTheGreat: um?
20:15:46 <ehird`> much better
20:16:23 <RodgerTheGreat> Is that a waveform collapse I taste? Or possibly blood.
20:17:14 <RodgerTheGreat> SimonRC: I think adding a naked, ratlike tail to a human is one of the few ways you could possibly make us look more ridiculous.
20:17:35 <oklopol> RodgerTheGreat: i've seen both those strips before :<
20:17:38 <oklopol> good though
20:17:42 <ehird`> RodgerTheGreat: I think the furry biologists will probably work on that.
20:17:43 <RodgerTheGreat> oklopol: sorry

20:18:27 <ehird`> All humans fuck retarded people now?
20:18:34 <ehird`> ... probably true

20:21:55 <SimonRC> "based on"?
20:21:58 <RodgerTheGreat> based on.

20:22:17 <RodgerTheGreat> as in not literally me, but in many ways similar.
20:22:25 <SimonRC> ah, ok
20:22:29 <SimonRC> makes sense
20:22:44 <RodgerTheGreat> he is, for example, a hardcode DOS guru, whereas I am a mac user.
