Everyone in Sweden gets paid in SEKs

<Deozaan> What the carp is a SEK?
<Deozaan> This bandcamp album costs 56 SEK.
<Deozaan> https://wintergatan.bandcamp.com/album/wintergatan
<Deozaan> ~$6.50 USD
<w3bcrawler> people might misunderstand if you tell them they are owed Y SEKs
<Deozaan> Why SEKs? :P
<Deozaan> "Why not?"
<w3bcrawler> it could be a new payment option on donationcoder
<app> Swedish Krona
<w3bcrawler> aha
<Deozaan> I should start accepting payment in SEKs.
<app> if you started your own bank and allowed people to exchange their USDs for SEKs, would that make you a prostitute?
<w3bcrawler> how would that work if someone wants to deposit SEKs in the ATM
<app> and if you filmed it, would it be considered porn?
<w3bcrawler> swedish bitcoins.. cyberSEKs.
<Deozaan> O_o
<Deozaan> CryptoSEKs.
<w3bcrawler> lmao
<w3bcrawler> crypto- makes it sound so devious.
<app> just think...all the Swedish porn stars get paid in SEKs
<Deozaan> Is that consensual SEKs?
* Deozaan is suddenly reminded of the "ma na ma na" song.
<w3bcrawler> everyone in Sweden gets paid in SEKs.
* w3bcrawler packs his bags
<app> lol
<Deozaan> No wonder it's the happiest place on the planet!

Windows 8 is Painful. Here's How Microsoft Can Fix It…

<mouser> om windows 8 is painful
<w3bcrawler> indeed
<w3bcrawler> my dad got a new laptop a few weeks ago and it came with w8
<w3bcrawler> it's quite the break from the usual windows user experience
<mouser> yes and a break in my sanity
<w3bcrawler> i just keep hitting the 'back' arrow until i get to a 'normal' desktop :D
<mouser> microsoft could solve this easily
<mouser> just voice detect screaming
<mouser> and when you hear screaming, go back to desktop
<w3bcrawler> or just concede victory to *nix
<w3bcrawler> it would be the sensible thing to do :D

The computer known as M.O.M

My daughter once had a dream in which I was assimilated into a defense computer, whose acronym was M.O.M:

<daughter> The Multi-tasking Omniscient Mainframe!
<daughter> You were part of my superhero team...
<daughter> the mega computer that kept our base safe and helped us with our missions.
<daughter> Definitely NOT a nightmare!
<daughter> You were totally badass. :D

Social Sharing Buttons: Now you see them, now you don't

<Metshrine> Mouser
<Metshrine> I hear the world is ending
<Metshrine> You added social media buttons to DC?!?!?
<mouser> DO NOT WANT
<mouser> stephen made me
<Metshrine> Welcome to the 21st century!
<Metshrine> Now move on to SMF 2.0 :-D
<Metshrine> You have exceeded Josh time on this one
<Metshrine> bwahahahaha
<app> of all the social buttons you could have added, you picked one of the most annoying?
<GamingPhoeni> where are these buttons?
<mouser> they are pretty, but annoying
<mouser> they are gone
<mouser> i couldnt keep them on any longer
<mouser> not after app told me to remove
<GamingPhoeni> I might have too if I wasn't gaming
<mouser> i try to do whatever stephen says to do
<GamingPhoeni> I hate those buttons
<mouser> but app overrides stephen
<mouser> :)
<GamingPhoeni> hehe
<GamingPhoeni> sudo remove buttons : )
<mouser> sorry steph, thats just the way the app crumbles
<mouser> we'll have to find some better buttons

house.fix()

<edvard> ive been dreaming about coding lately
* edvard is slightly disturbed
<edvard> because in my dreams, im trying to figure out some particularly gnarly problem, but it's a real-life problem and i grumble and get out my keyboard to try and fix it
<edvard> like a part of my house is broken, so i get out my keyboard and start coding house.fix();

The "Yay" Script

<edvard> i have a script in my path called yay
<edvard> it prints out the message "well played, sir!"
<edvard> so when i successfully compile something, or a script runs correctly, i say "yay" and my computer congratulates me
<edvard> who needs ai when you have total compliance?

Getting Your Ass Kicked by Turkey/Giraffe Mutants in a Real Life PvP Zone

<w3bcrawler> back
<w3bcrawler> went around the bird park.. got cornered by 3 geese at one point
<lanux128> you! you bird watcher!
<w3bcrawler> seriously man they were scary as @$#@
<app> cody's minions
<w3bcrawler> they had their necks all tucked in ready to attack, and were hissing and spitting
<w3bcrawler> i try to go around them and they fan out
<w3bcrawler> lol @app
<lanux128> did you aggro them all at once?
<w3bcrawler> 3 geese "so where's your NANY pledge for this year?"
<lanux128> didn't you learn anything from MMOs? :P
<lanux128> you aggro one at a time then kite them
<lanux128> :D
<app> i guess he wasn't wearing his special hat
<w3bcrawler> if it wasn't illegal i would have just walked by and beat the piss out of them if they tried anything
<lanux128> or carrying his special staff
<app> or maybe he needs to level up first
<lanux128> he needs to respec 1st
<lanux128> he was all geared up for dragons and wargs
<lanux128> :D
<w3bcrawler> worgs*
<w3bcrawler> worgen*
<app> wrong realm
<lanux128> lol
<w3bcrawler> i just walked into a PvP zone without knowing it
<lanux128> teleported without checking
<lanux128> leroy jenkins!
<lanux128> a gander of geese, right?
<lanux128> no, a gaggle
<app> at least he didn't have to do battle with the goose that eats the golden coins...yet
<w3bcrawler> it would be shit out of luck cuz i haz no coins
<app> you might have a hard time getting him to believe that when he's hungry
