| 20:00:05 | Lucifer | Welcome, all |
| 20:00:15 | goomba | bens resume says $21 million |
| 20:00:17 | Lucifer | Tonights topic is "Apathy and Irony" |
| 20:00:44 | prometheus | Who cares? |
| 20:00:58 | Lucifer | I think it was Sat who pointed out the similarity to that hit song "Ebony and Ivory" |
| 20:01:03 | Lucifer | I had to kill him |
| 20:01:17 | localroger | So THAT's why he's not here tonight? |
| 20:01:26 | Lucifer | either that or he's at martial arts again |
| 20:02:06 | Lucifer | The discussion tonight will be fairly open to tangents |
| 20:02:19 | localroger | Is there, like, a starting context? |
| 20:02:30 | Lucifer | I just wanted to get some ideas about how to deal with apathy with respect to our little community here |
| 20:02:39 | rhino | rhino (rhino@[death to spam].ipa204.212.tellas.gr) has joined #virus |
| 20:02:39 | ChanServ | Mode change [+o rhino] on #virus by ChanServ |
| 20:02:48 | Lucifer | * Lucifer welcome rhino with a chew toy |
| 20:03:05 | goomba | no one cares about virus? :> |
| 20:03:13 | Lucifer | interest is waning |
| 20:03:16 | rhino | hey Lucifer. did we start? |
| 20:03:19 | localroger | You know it's funny, but I am writing another /passages/ story right now that starts off with the main (human this time) character being too depressed/bored to go out. |
| 20:03:19 | Lucifer | just now |
| 20:03:42 | Lucifer | localroger, interesting, where did you get the inspiration for that? |
| 20:04:03 | localroger | Seems like a common problem. Bringer "solves" it in, shall we say, a refreshing way :-) |
| 20:04:27 | Lucifer | I'm looking forward to this next installment, the first 2 were excellent |
| 20:04:47 | localroger | I was really thinking of the differences between the post-singularity existences of humans in the /passages/ and /prime-intellect/ universes. |
| 20:05:09 | goomba | virus needs grandiose projects ;) |
| 20:05:16 | localroger | Besides the lack of omnipotence, the /passages/ AI's don't have any three-laws thing going on. They are friendly in, actually a more Eliezer-like sense. |
| 20:05:34 | localroger | They are free to occasionally do shocking things -- like Bringer's dash for home. |
| 20:05:52 | Lucifer | and, hence, more interesting to human readers |
| 20:05:53 | prometheus | Virus needs rational passion. |
| 20:06:01 | Lucifer | prometheus, bingo |
| 20:06:15 | goomba | sounds ironic :P |
