    Agatha Macbeth: Hello recorder
    Agatha Macbeth: Yay
    Agatha Macbeth: Hi Wolliekins
    Wol Euler: aggerses.
    Wol Euler: happy sunday
    Agatha Macbeth: Or should that be Lola Montez? :p
    Wol Euler: nah
    Wol Euler: just a rumour
    Agatha Macbeth: Amazing outfit
    Wol Euler: 99$ at Boudoir
    Wol Euler: retirement sale
    Agatha Macbeth: Oh
    Wol Euler: want the LM?
    Agatha Macbeth: She's leaving?
    Agatha Macbeth: Pls
    Wol Euler: no, the outfits are :)
    Agatha Macbeth: Ahhh
    Wol Euler: a dozen or so
    Agatha Macbeth: Ty
    Wol Euler: this was the only one I liked that I didn't already have
    Wol Euler: yw
    Agatha Macbeth: Haven't been there in ages
    Wol Euler: it's huge now
    Wol Euler: hundreds of outfits, quite an immense selection
    Agatha Macbeth: It was huge before if I remember rightly
    Wol Euler: huger now
    Agatha Macbeth: Like Topsy?
    Wol Euler: yup
    Wol Euler: hence the sale, methinks
    Agatha Macbeth: I must say feathers suit you
    Wol Euler smiles.
    Wol Euler: thank you
    Agatha Macbeth: Did you get my IM about AVid?
    Wol Euler: um, no
    Agatha Macbeth: Oh
    Agatha Macbeth: Strange
    Wol Euler: when was that?
    Agatha Macbeth: Wonder who got that then?
    Agatha Macbeth: Umm
    Agatha Macbeth: Wednesday-ish I think
    Agatha Macbeth: Oh well
    Wol Euler: last thing in my IM chat with you is from the 2nd
    Wol Euler: that was Tuesday I believe
    Wol Euler: what did you want to say?
    Agatha Macbeth: Darwin has marked *everything* down to 450L
    Wol Euler: wow!
    Agatha Macbeth: And i mean *everything*
    Wol Euler: incredibule.
    Agatha Macbeth: I was practically having an orgasm
    Agatha Macbeth: Practically...
    Agatha Macbeth: Buona sera QT
    Agatha Macbeth: Now I can all those outfits I always wanted and couldn't afford
    Qt Core: Buona sera Agatha, Wol
    Wol Euler: hello again qt
    Wol Euler: had a nice day?
    --BELL--1315
    Agatha Macbeth: Gym maybe?
    Qt Core: no, bicycle at the park
    Agatha Macbeth: (It's QT's gym but not as we know it)
    Wol Euler: heheheh
    Agatha Macbeth: Ah a bike ride is nice this time of year
    Qt Core: and some window shopping in the afternoon ( i fell in love with the samsung galaxy tab s 8.4 inch edition...)
    Agatha Macbeth: Must google that
    Wol Euler tries to work out what 8.4 inches means in real units
    Wol Euler: 21 cm or so?
    Agatha Macbeth: Sounds about right

    [multiply by 10 and divide by 4]

    Qt Core: the maximum size one could hold with a hand (that's whi i like that and not the 10.1 one)
    Agatha Macbeth: Where has the lag meter moved to in FS now?
    Agatha Macbeth: It's not in avatar health
    Qt Core: reviews compare it to ipads with retina display, but it costs "only" 499 euros and ur to this months end it will be 350
    Qt Core: *up
    Agatha Macbeth: Nice
    Agatha Macbeth: I'm getting that 'I may crash soon' feeling
    Wol Euler: oops
    Agatha Macbeth: Everything seems to have slowed down
    Qt Core: maybe a prehemptive relogin may help
    Agatha Macbeth: Hm
    Agatha Macbeth: I'll sit it out, may never happen
    Agatha Macbeth: Wonder where Brucie is?
    Wol Euler: it's a mystery.
    Agatha Macbeth: I was here 5 years on Sep 3
    Wol Euler: awww, and we missed it
    Wol Euler: happy pabiversary, dear aggers
    Agatha Macbeth: Ty
    Agatha Macbeth: What times we have had
    Wol Euler nods.
    Agatha Macbeth: I'm still sorry I missed the first year tho
    Wol Euler: well :) one can spend one#s whole life regretting missing stuff, and thus miss even more stuff
    Agatha Macbeth: Hm
    Agatha Macbeth: Wow Wollie's nearly 2500 now
    Wol Euler: 44 more days :)
    Agatha Macbeth: You old git ♥
    Agatha Macbeth: Why am I lagging suddenly?
    Wol Euler: too many pigeons sitting on the wires.
    Agatha Macbeth: Underground?
    Wol Euler: their scaly toes hold back the electrons.
    Agatha Macbeth: Ah
    Agatha Macbeth: Like on your balcony?
    Wol Euler: right
    --BELL--1330
    Agatha Macbeth: Did any more come of that accident last week?
    Wol Euler: the tram incident?
    Agatha Macbeth: Yep
    Wol Euler: not htat I heard, though the residue of the burned-out car is still visible
    Agatha Macbeth: Really?
    Wol Euler: shards of glass in plastic/rubber melted onto the road
    Wol Euler: the car itself is long gone of course
    Agatha Macbeth: Oh my
    Wol Euler: but this stuff baked on
    Wol Euler: dunno how they will get it off
    Agatha Macbeth: Well the occupant(s) was/were lucky it seems
    Wol Euler nods.
    Wol Euler: I infer that they were
    Wol Euler: since there was only one ambulance called and it wasn't busy
    Agatha Macbeth: Glad to hear it
    Wol Euler nods.
    Agatha Macbeth: Was the tram badly damaged?
    Wol Euler: I gather not
    Wol Euler: since it drove on
    Wol Euler: but who knows :)
    Agatha Macbeth: I guess the Germans build those things to last
    Wol Euler: they are pretty robust, and also quite high off the ground
    Agatha Macbeth: Vorsprung durch technik and all that
    Wol Euler: likely that the floor plate was at the level of hte car's roof, so no damage to passenger compartment
    Wol Euler: or driver
    Agatha Macbeth: Good
    Wol Euler: I've seen a few such accidents, though it would be more accurate to call them "negligents" :)
    Agatha Macbeth: Hm, yes
    Wol Euler: I mean, it's four metres tall and nearly three metres wide and painted bright yellow. And it runs on rails. What more do you want?
    Wol Euler: it can hardly take you by surprise!
    Agatha Macbeth: Yes, hard to miss (in both senses)
    Wol Euler: perhaps simply too big to see :)
    Qt Core: it should emit signals that stops phones in the nearby cars ;-)
    Agatha Macbeth: Could be
    Wol Euler: probably so, qt
    Agatha Macbeth: Like the elephant
    Wol Euler: or deliberate idiocy, "of course I can get past before it crosses the junction."
    Agatha Macbeth nods
    Wol Euler: "nah, the red light doesn't apply to ME, not really"
    Agatha Macbeth: I've heard of people doing really stupid things at level crossings
    Wol Euler: indeed
    Agatha Macbeth: Like zig-zagging round the barriers for god's sake
    Wol Euler: youtube is full of videos of people nearly being killed by trains, by disregarding signs and driving /walking around barriers
    Wol Euler: no conception of trains as moving objects, apparently
    Agatha Macbeth: Which both odd and rather stupid
    Wol Euler: yup
    Wol Euler: I assume it's stupidity and arrogance, always a fine combination
    Agatha Macbeth: Oh yes
    Agatha Macbeth: Specially in politicians
    Agatha Macbeth: They seem to specialise in it
    Wol Euler: we seem to be drowning out poor QT :)
    Agatha Macbeth: I think he's having a quiet night
    Qt Core: :)
    Agatha Macbeth: Probably looking on amazon for that pad :p
    Agatha Macbeth: Do you still script stuff Wollie?
    Qt Core: ;-) already did this afternoon, one of the few times amazon, real shop and other sellers agree on a price
    Agatha Macbeth smiles
    Wol Euler: :)
    Agatha Macbeth: Hello Mat
    Matjaz Rives: hello there
    Wol Euler: I don't do much scripting any more, just little tweaks to stuff
    Wol Euler: hello matjaz, nice to see you again
    Agatha Macbeth: Have you been to PaB before?
    Agatha Macbeth: Ah
    Qt Core: hi Matjaz
    Matjaz Rives: Hi everybody
    Matjaz Rives: yeah
    Agatha Macbeth: I infer that means 'yes' so no worries :)
    Agatha Macbeth: I don't have to go through  that silly intro
    Agatha Macbeth: How are you?
    Matjaz Rives: I'm good, how are you?
    Agatha Macbeth: Feeling Sunday-ish
    --BELL--1345
    Agatha Macbeth: Shame about the scripting Wollie, you were rather good at it
    Wol Euler: well, I keep thinking of stuff to try to build, but never get around to doing it
    Wol Euler: there's a big barrier to entry now in learning mesh
    Agatha Macbeth: Aye there's the rub
    Agatha Macbeth: How is mesh different from prim in that respect?
    Agatha Macbeth: (This really points up my ignorance of SL building)
    Wol Euler: mesh can only be made outside of SL in programs like Blender
    Qt Core: me too, don't worry Aga
    Agatha Macbeth: Ahh I've heard of that
    Wol Euler: so you have to get and learn a new program
    Agatha Macbeth: A friend mentioned it recently
    Agatha Macbeth nods
    Agatha Macbeth: So you do it out of SL then import it?
    Wol Euler: mmhmm
    Qt Core: they realized that a mesh editor in world would have been too big and too hard to write
    Agatha Macbeth: How cumbersome
    Agatha Macbeth: But wait, don't LL charge you for everything you bring in?
    Qt Core: tath is a unexpected nice side effect ;-)
    Agatha Macbeth: If so, that's quite a racket
    Wol Euler: I believe the price is the same as importing an image, L$10, but I don't know
    Agatha Macbeth: All the same, multiply that by how much regular builders must bring in and it's a fair amount
    Agatha Macbeth: I must look up this Blender thing more
    Wol Euler: I saw Berti log on, has he sent an announcement yet?
    Agatha Macbeth: No, I wondered
    Agatha Macbeth: Knowing Bert he probably forgot :p
    Agatha Macbeth: Bless him
    Agatha Macbeth: Anyway shall we trundle on over?
    Wol Euler: yeah, he says there is a session as usual
    Agatha Macbeth: Yay
    Wol Euler: okay, farewell, qt. Have a nice week :)
    Agatha Macbeth: Ciao QT
    Qt Core: i'll try
    Agatha Macbeth: Bye Matjaz, nice to meet you
    Matjaz Rives: Ciao QT
    Qt Core: have fun
    Matjaz Rives: Ciao
    Matjaz Rives: you too
    Wol Euler: and bye matjaz, take care


    Bruce Mowbray: 's current display-name is "Bruce".
    Matjaz Rives: we still on?
    Qt Core: formally the session end in a couple minutes
    Matjaz Rives: oh okay
    Matjaz Rives: I'm in too many places at the same time
    Qt Core: but if you have something you like to talk about...
    Qt Core: ahh, multitasking ;-)
    Matjaz Rives: lol
    Matjaz Rives: yeee man
    Qt Core: muliple viewers or just multiple conversation
    --BELL--1400
    Matjaz Rives: multiple conversations
    Matjaz Rives: Facebook, here, another website
    Matjaz Rives: lol
    Matjaz Rives: what do you wanna talk about?
    Qt Core: don't know, how you found this place ?
    Matjaz Rives: I found it two years ago
    Matjaz Rives: so I can't really recall
    Matjaz Rives: I was just searching for things
    Qt Core: sometimes is hard remembering yesterday
    Matjaz Rives: lol
    Matjaz Rives: yeah mayn
    Qt Core: speaking about the sunday feeling, i have hope for this monday, the Monza F1 gp is finished and so traffic from home to work should be (maybe just a little) less
    Matjaz Rives: where do you live?
    Qt Core: near Milan, Italy
    Matjaz Rives: I'm in Slovenia
    Matjaz Rives: so we're very close
    Qt Core: was this summer cold and rainy there too ?
    Matjaz Rives: yeah man
    Matjaz Rives: fucking hell
    Matjaz Rives: well I spent most of my summer in Canada
    Matjaz Rives: but when I got back it's been mostly rain
    Qt Core: don't know about CAnada but i read that northern USA got a cold summer too
    Matjaz Rives: yeah
    Matjaz Rives: but not as much rain as here man
    Qt Core: in the end it wasn't bad for me, i didn't go anywhere but the colder weather was great to go to a nearby par with my bicycle
    --BELL--1415
    Matjaz Rives: mhm
    Matjaz Rives: yeah man, you do what you gotta do
    Qt Core: time to go, something to be done and then sleep
    Matjaz Rives: ok man
    Qt Core: bye Matjaz
    Matjaz Rives: take care Qt
    Matjaz Rives: nice talking
