malc_ | chrisl: bought myself a Leopold, boasted abut the purchase to the friend he mentioned his "keys" https://www.aliexpress.com/item/33006060286.html?spm=a2g0s.9042311.0.0.3cc84c4dPVkZR2 i think it's you who had been looking for ergo keybard with decent switches | 04:54.35 |
chrisl | malc_: Not me, no - maybe Robin_Watts? | 07:59.37 |
malc_ | chrisl: hmm... the conversation was prompted by an American Psycho business card spoof | 08:01.06 |
| then me calling someone "english" | 08:01.23 |
| (after this scottish person mentioned that he had to go to London to buy something) | 08:01.46 |
| given that Robin is english it couldn't have been him | 08:02.04 |
chrisl | True. And I am Scottish.... but I also never got on with ergo keyboards | 08:02.55 |
malc_ | chrisl: do you remember reacting to the AP keys video? | 08:03.51 |
chrisl | No | 08:04.06 |
malc_ | aha | 08:04.08 |
| so it wasn't you... definitely | 08:04.19 |
| chrisl: FWIW https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uHt01D6rOLI | 08:05.13 |
chrisl | Will watch later - I don't have speakers on this computer :-( | 08:05.43 |
malc_ | chrisl: gotcha, one has to be familiar with source material to appreciate the video more | 08:06.59 |
| it was kens | 08:09.35 |
chrisl | Ah, well he his also Scottish | 08:09.47 |
malc_ | chrisl: does any of you speak glaswegian? | 08:10.28 |
chrisl | pedro_mac (who's sometimes on here) is from that area - I'm from Edinburgh, and I forget which part of Scotland kens is from. | 08:11.25 |
| Both kens and I have lived away from Scotland for a long time, so our accents are pretty soft | 08:12.03 |
malc_ | yet the hell i received when calling one of you english instead of brittish... | 08:13.45 |
chrisl | I don't tend to get too uppity about it, but I definitely correct the misconception | 08:14.59 |
malc_ | thank gods for the logs - <kens> Who are you calling English ? O.O | 08:19.31 |
| chrisl: sorry once again | 08:19.36 |
| feels like i have an anti scott bias of sorts | 08:20.02 |
chrisl | malc_: Meh, not to worry.... :-) | 08:25.00 |
malc_ | after all, all i can take is your life and never your freedom.. | 08:26.11 |
chrisl | malc_: Quoting that Mel Gibson film offends more as a movie fan than as a Scot ;-) | 08:32.37 |
malc_ | :)) | 08:33.04 |
sebras | here I'm an american, but not actually. | 08:33.48 |
chrisl | sebras: You're English language is too good to be an American! | 08:34.34 |
| Or, "Your" | 08:34.43 |
malc_ | it's funny how original mad max was dubbed into american because original soundtrack had an ozzie accent that was too strong, and yet here we have him butchering (buchering?) scottish | 08:34.57 |
chrisl | Forgive me, it's a Sunday morning | 08:34.58 |
sebras | :) | 08:35.01 |
chrisl | I find it hard imagine Mad Max without the Australian accent | 08:35.47 |
malc_ | chrisl: now consider this... gibson is a yankee originally :) | 08:36.11 |
| brought up in ozlasd sure, but american nevertheless | 08:36.34 |
| *land | 08:36.44 |
chrisl | Crumbs.... I think may I have known that before, and forgotten it | 08:37.03 |
Robin_Watts | malc_: It was me that wanted a mechanical ergo keyboard. | 11:53.47 |
malc_ | Robin_Watts: cool, then the link is for you | 11:54.06 |
| the one who gave me the link says it's good | 11:54.23 |
| and he is in ergonomics... like herman miller chair into it | 11:56.15 |
