.:+njoos:. http://arstechnica.co.uk/science/2016/01/sperm-off-switch-may-offer-men-reversible-contraceptive/ 

.:+applecider:. I'm skeptical of this

.:+applecider:. but it would be cool

.:+njoos:. The picture of that switch is very disconcerting

.:+njoos:. but otherwise

.:+njoos:. nice

.:+applecider:. but I can't imagine many men jumping at the idea

»» n1njasquirrel gives voice to n1njasquirrel

.:+superbaesedman:. Yeah I feel like the biggest issue in male contraception is actually getting men to give a shit

.:+njoos:. Why not?

.:+reyturner:. Sex like http://vignette2.wikia.nocookie.net/simpsons/images/f/f0/Fight%21_Fight%21_Fight%21_etc..gif/revision/latest?cb=20120327205435 

.:+applecider:. not giving a shit but also being weirded out by having that stuff implanted

.:+Jutranjo:. i would not want hydraulics installed under my skin

.:+Jutranjo:. this isn't the cyber future i was promised

.:+applecider:. otoh it seems no worse than an IUD

.:+superbaesedman:. "That's really weird baby, couldn't you just put a plastic coil in your junk instead?"

.:+applecider:. and women get those all the time

»» n1njasquirrel removes voice from n1njasquirrel

.:+twig:. what is sex

.:+applecider:. personally I think IUDs are fucking terrible but that's me

.:+superbaesedman:. Yeah uh, a friend of mine had a terrible experience

.:+superbaesedman:. they kinda are.

.:+njoos:. I dont know what IUD is, but I'd consider getting one of those implants

.:+applecider:. otoh there's been developments in hormonal BC for men but guess what, lack of funding because everyone seems to not be in a super hurry to make men take birth control

.:+lansbury:. my sister was in pain and bleeding for months and had to have hers taken out

.:+applecider:. an IUD is an intrauterine device

.:+superbaesedman:. Yeah that was my friend's terrible experience

.:+superbaesedman:. It was lodged somewhere it shouldn't have been.

.:+applecider:. it's a tiny T shaped looking thing that is made from metal or plastic and basically agitates the lining of the uterus in order to prevent a fertilized embryo from attaching

.:+njoos:. ah, well many women cant use pills

»» reyturner removes voice from reyturner

.:+applecider:. oh, I know

.:+njoos:. but I can imagine all men could use this

.:+applecider:. I think having as many options as possible for everyone is a great idea in general

.:+superbaesedman:. Also pills have side effects and are damn expensive.

.:+undermind9:. the male oral contraceptive is actually the most promising (despite lack of funding) because its already a known drug ( i think heart related)

.:+undermind9:. there is an silicone injection that is being developed but that's probably 8yrs away from being even practical.  its a 10yr expiration that disolves

»» reyturner gives voice to reyturner

.:+applecider:. but I like the idea of pushing for more responsibility on the part of either partner

.:+superbaesedman:. Is that injection the RISUG thing?

.:+reyturner:. Also aren't vasectomy already reversible?

.:+applecider:. they are...up until a certain point but you should not use it as contraception

»» reyturner removes voice from reyturner

.:+codicier:. the reversal is not cheap and not 100% reliable from what i understand

.:+applecider:. it's way easier to stop taking birth control or a switch or to remove a device, etc

.:+twig:. i avoid all of these problems by never having sex

.:+lansbury:. I'm both encouraged and dismayed by developments in male contraceptive devices that aren't condoms, from a public health perspective

»» reyturner gives voice to reyturner

.:+twig:. easiest solution right

.:+applecider:. well it is the most foolproof form of birth control

.:+applecider:. ABSTINENCE

.:+twig:. like any proper christian boy

.:+lansbury:. twig is the only person who took American public school sex ed to heart

.:+lansbury:. bravo

.:+twig:. sex is a sin and that's why i'm the most holy

.:+lansbury:. you are the only one

.:+twig:. hahaha

.:+codicier:. Sorry to to throw or another tech question in the middle of this debate but what's the best way to move a big chunk of data? To a new hard drive just c&p or is there something more efficient

.:+twig:. copy and paste

.:+reyturner:. That switch seems like a liability nightmare. I can't remember how many times I've come home at night and realized I've left the bedroom light on

.:+njoos:. robocopy

.:+twig:. although if it's got a million subfolders

.:+horza:. copy paste or maybe one of those cloning stations

.:+twig:. there might be a better solution worth pursuing

.:+superbaesedman:. I would assume the switch is more complex than just a light switch, there must be some failsafe

.:+twig:. cause subfolders make copy pastes take way longer than just a giant file would

.:+twig:. preserving that file structure is intense usually

.:+superbaesedman:. Or does it just toggle every time you press on your belly button?

.:+twig:. hahahaha

.:+njoos:. Use robocopy

.:+applecider:. I'm just perplexed at how a switch under your skin works

.:+njoos:. You can resume

.:+njoos:. and shit

.:+njoos:. if it fails

.:+sucks2bme:. i think the article says to turn it on again there is a 2 switch process

.:+applecider:. like is it enough that you can tell it's on/off and if so, can your partner check

.:+applecider:. because I can imagine being like "oh yeah baby I totally have that switch and it's totally ON right now"

.:+njoos:. I would install a speaker too, inside my nipples

.:+lansbury:. "that switch is as turned on as me"

.:+njoos:. that say SPERM ON

.:+njoos:. when I turn it on

.:+Jutranjo:. putting a switch beneath your skin isn't a bit too intrusive?

.:+twig:. haaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa

.:+applecider:. in order to turn the sperm off you have two keyholders and they both have to turn the keys to the right at the same time

.:+twig:. ded

.:+twig:. im ded

»» reyturner removes voice from reyturner

.:+applecider:. I am trying so hard not to laugh at my desk right now

.:+applecider:. like so hard

.:+twig:. me too

.:+njoos:. lol

.:+twig:. DEEP BREATHS

.:+Jutranjo:. just have a few LED under your foreskin so it lights up warning blinkers when it's on 

.:+undermind9:. id like my switch to be wifi

.:+njoos:. rofl

.:+twig:. the leds can spell out SAFE SEX on your torso

.:+applecider:. OMG STOP lmao lmao

.:+njoos:. One of those orange spinning lights

.:+Jutranjo:. you don't want your sperm/dick to be hacked undermind9 

.:+applecider:. I'm fucking dying

.:+Jutranjo:. that's bad business

.:+twig:. me tooooooo

.:+twig:. ahhhh hahaha

.:+twig:. i can't breathe

.:+Jutranjo:. DO NOT TURN YOUR GENITAL WI-FI ON OUTSIDE YOUR HOME'S FARADAY CAGE

.:+twig:. THERE ARE TEARS IN MY EYES

.:+applecider:. AAAAH

.:+applecider:. CRY

.:+Jutranjo:. Safe E-Sex Tips

.:+Jutranjo:. Sync your sperm's viability with your twitter and facebook! Have people follow your dick's twitter account

.:+njoos:. You can hook your E-sperm up to your philips hue

.:+njoos:. Anyways, you can buy a lot of condoms for that 5000 USD price tag

.:+shibboleth:. hello~~~~!!!

.:+sucks2bme:. "I just ejaculated!"  post to twitter for 5 sperm coins. Sperm coins can be used at the shop for cosmetic upgrades

.:+dibs:. link it to your iphone

.:+applecider:. AHAHAH

.:+twig:. !

.:+applecider:. I can't deal right now

.:+dibs:. siri will help you out

.:+Jutranjo:. Siri, sperm on

.:+twig:. sperm coins oh my god

.:+twig:. AHHH

.:+applecider:. the cosmetic upgrades are better shaders on your dick LEDs

.:+Jutranjo:. "What could be easier? Hands free sperm viability switching!"

.:+njoos:. RGB LEDs

.:+applecider:. are we essentially writing an erotic Shadowrun game right now or something

.:+twig:. the dick leds are like an airport runway when you have the switch on

.:+Jutranjo:. finally my Winamp Visualizer Plugin folder will be hip again

.:+applecider:. OMG

.:+applecider:. OMG

.:+undermind9:. i have a vendor that that makes localized RF RGB changing lights...and UL rated for wet/damp/dry locations

.:+codicier:. The New FitDick wearable sperm monitor (cumming soon to all good retailers)

.:+Jutranjo:. "Why not also buy our prostate massager implant?"

.:+horza:. this truly is the cyber future we deserve

.:+njoos:. There is already a thing like that, in the form of a penis ring @codicier

.:+undermind9:. oh yea, cant wait to go through one of those TSA orb things...Sir - is that a switch in your scrotum

.:+Jutranjo:. What if terrorists are hidding bombs in their dicks

.:+Jutranjo:. or knives

.:+twig:. is there a way to archive a conversation in slack because goddamn

.:+Jutranjo:. i'm saving all convos in my IRC client

.:+twig:. perfect

.:+Jutranjo:. i think, maybe, whatever it defaults to

.:+horza:. just send the chatlog to Charlie Brooker

.:+horza:. don't think he's done with black mirror s3 yet

.:+applecider:. we need a bash channel that we just copy good convos into for posterity

[Dinosaursssssss]

there was some discussion a while back about wanting a chill place to hang out on voice chat, so tonight (and probably other nights in the future like tomorrow, who knows) I'll be hanging out on the Discord doing Unity work and maybe some modeling? come hang out with me.

[Badfinger]

Neat! I was wondering if anyone was using the discord server still. I convinced friends who were still using the built-into-gmail IM to use Discord in a way I never got them to try Slack, so I use Discord much more frequently than anything else now.

[Dinosaursssssss]

Twig and AppleCider and I are hangin' out, come chit chat and do work or whatever

[Twig]

why aren't you in slack yet

 

[Jordan A]

I have two-factor authentication turned on and Slack isn't sending me the SMS message with my code when I try to log in to the Thumbs channel.

 

I didn't write down any backup codes (like a dummy,) because hey, I figured the messages would get through with my code.

 

 

 

Can someone turn off my 2FA? It says the team owner is able to do it. Username is jordan_a

[Twig]

I just turned it off!

[Dewar]

I'm way late to the slack train, but I'd like to get in if it's still active. The link in the OP doesn't seem to be functional.

[clyde]

That's funny. I assumed you were Hank because of the similarities in avatar.

I don't know why the link isn't working. Sorry.

Maybe try googling Slack and looking for the IdleReaders channel? Idk

[Bjorn]

Darth just got the signup link fixed, should be working now Dewar.

[neonrev]

Should be back up now, Dewar.

Edit: Dammit

Saving this link for the next time we run out of space from posting too many cute cat pictures.

[Twig]

warning: it's very very inefficient, that's why i used last time

[tabacco]

It's more efficient than individually deleting them all by hand.

[Twig]

Oh definitely, but it's still got an awful UI that tells you it deleted everything but actually lies and you have to refresh a thousand times and even after doing that oops a bunch of uploads persist because reasons.
