mircea_popescu: in other, related news, apparently the kid fashion these days is to identify as "demisexual". which you all know and love as the old "being a woman", which is to say, not getting turned on by looks, but by "other things". you know...
BingoBoingo: of course
mircea_popescu: gotta rename all the things.

pete_dushenski: so i tried a wall sit for the first time in, like, 5 years last night.
pete_dushenski: i don't remember being able to do much more than a minute-thirty back then, but i figure, hey, let's give this another shot
pete_dushenski: next thing i know, five minutes and ten seconds have elapsed, and i'm collapsed on the floor, writhing in discomfort but strangely satisfied
pete_dushenski: i impress me !
mod6: back in the day coach used to make us do those for punishment.
pete_dushenski: sounds about right
mod6: after about ~1 minute your legs feel like they're going to burst into flames.
pete_dushenski: i mentally associate wall sits with beep tests and the like
pete_dushenski: mod6: what sport were you playing back in the day ?
mod6: hockey
mod6: from about 4 to 18
pete_dushenski was freak child who DIDN'T grow up playing organised hockey in alberta
mod6: i still feel like im better on skates than on regular shoes sometimes
mod6: i got a buddy who played for calgary a while back. maybe 10 years.
pete_dushenski: well next annual general meeting we'll bring our skates, find a rink, and lace-up !
mod6: i like canadian style hockey.
mod6: pete_dushenski: ha, that'd be awesome.
pete_dushenski can still skate quite well
pete_dushenski: despite lack to 'organised' teamery
shinohai: The bane of Southern living is having to play street hockey on rollerblades, so that's all I know.
mod6: every now and then i go to open-skate just to `think & clear my mind' type of thing. every now and then guys try to get me to join mens league but I just don't have the extra time.

mod6: i played in one in tucson, but most guys couldn't play very well, and I had a hard time adjusting to no-contact.
mod6: pff. "hey, im mod6 yoh!"

pete_dushenski: this is like claiming you're spiderman

mod6: i always liked it. most guys in the US can't deal though -- here most kids are taught the physical game but more emphisis is put on skating and puck handling.
pete_dushenski: mod6: hockey in canada is definitely where the 'men' congregate, sort of how i imagine the culture around american football is, but for upper-middle-class white kids
pete_dushenski: if that's not a parallel stretched too far
mod6: yeah, in the US ``men'' play/watch football mostly. i think for one thing its readily accessable; it's inexpensive to play. all you gotta do is buy shoes and show up. the rest is pretty much provided by the team.
pete_dushenski: though the hockey bois here still do the cum-cracker thing, and the like, which boggles my mind, but i suppose it isn't that different than the primal pickle nignogs http://www.contravex.com/2015/09/26/o-brother-where-art-thou/#footnote_10_5413

mod6: hockey is very expensive. much higher barrier of entry.
pete_dushenski: mod6: big time. not many kids who make it to 'the show' have anything less that white-collar professional parents
mod6: haha, i never saw any wild stuff like that in all of our hockey travels. except for some typical locker-room boxing and pranks, etc.
pete_dushenski: eg. jerome iginla, whose dad is a lawyer here
mod6: ah.
mod6: yeah, ice time is expensive. but it does help if you live in an area where you can get free outdoor ice time.
mod6: i think the rink near where i live is like $300/hr
mod6: this year it hasn't been cold enough to have outdoor ice yet. we just got our first snow yesterday. was like ~5 inches.
mod6: which sucks for me, because that pretty much means the end of pheasant season.
mod6: i shot 8 birds last weekend. so ended the season on a high note.
pete_dushenski: lol when i saw 'shot 8 birds' i immediately thought golf, and was mi-hi-hightily impressed
pete_dushenski: brown christmas is lame though, we had a perfectly timed cold-snap. -20C all last week. bizarrely, JUST what i wanted for this time of year.
pete_dushenski: i'd usually be in cuba or something at this time of year, but i'm quite enjoying being around with the little fam. the city's calm and quiet like nothing else.
mod6: nice.
mircea_popescu: mod6 i don't think i ever ate 8 birds a year anyway. plenty, neh ?
mod6: i've got 50+ in the freezer.
shinohai was hoping it was "shot 8 cops", leaves disappointed
mod6: i had probably 65-70 last year.
mircea_popescu: are the pheasants there grouse sized or something ?
mod6: they're bigger than grouse. bout the same size as a chicken, maybe a bit bigger.
pete_dushenski: shinohai: terrorist !
mircea_popescu: ah. ro pheasants are kinda turkey-sized
mod6: i cook three of 'em at a time. we eat 'em quite a bit.
mod6: last year i probably gave away like 10.
mircea_popescu: so you know... 50 birds is like 500lbs of meat, easy
mod6: ooh. hah, yeah, these are probably like 2-4lbs.

mircea_popescu: is the hen legal too, there ? or just rooster ?
mod6: Most ones we see are "Mongolian ringneck"s
mod6: yeah, hens too. at least here.
mod6: i suppose each place has different laws.
mircea_popescu: easy enough way to protect the population, if it has any wildlife habitat. make hunt rooster-only for a while.
mod6: yeah. there used to be a lot more wild birds here in minnesota, so say the old timers. but the land development and introduction of a lot more nest-feeding animals like skunks, coyote, wolves and foxes have shrank the population.
mircea_popescu: yeah foxes are a problem. can't really have lotta fox and lotta turkey/pheasant/grouse in the same place.
mod6: south dakota still has a lot from what I hear. i've never hunted there yet. but i hear that you'll see like 100 birds get up at a single time. so many, it's hard to actually pick a target.
mod6: yeah. sometime, i wanna try turkey hunting.
mod6: gotta walk a lot though, from what i'm told.
mircea_popescu: euro turkeys are kinda midgety. from what i hear us and canada have some real huge ones.
mircea_popescu: well that's the point of hunting innit ? exercise the dogs.
mod6: yeah. totally. and yes, they do have some pretty big turkeys here.
mircea_popescu: "you're not a real man for as long as you get outwalked by a dog"
mod6: the dogs always amaze me. they just don't stop. even with broken toe-nails, or iced over paws, they just keep on going.
BingoBoingo: pete_dushenski: sure, who isn't
mod6: i'd say, that's probably one of the best parts of hunting for me; watching the dogs work.

deedbot-: [Qntra] Ian Murdock Dead After Police Encounter - http://qntra.net/2015/12/ian-murdock-dead-after-police-encounter/
mircea_popescu: wow he actually did it huh.
BingoBoingo: Indeterminate. Could have died from head trauma during beating. Also police officers could have come out for round 3 as he was drafting the blog post.
BingoBoingo: He got Schweich'd
mircea_popescu: BingoBoingo i wonder if this has anything to do with the ongoing systemd-ization of foss.
BingoBoingo: It could be. Mebbe he had an uneventful arrest after a holiday party and Poettering killed him and framed it as suicide using Murdock's phone.
mircea_popescu: or maybe he was going to do the equivalent of the trb but for debian and well... couldn't have that.
mircea_popescu: a comb thr0ugh the githubs / mailing lists may turn out something. then again... huge workload, unsure payoff.
