Idiocy, trolling, incoherence. Setting as perma in Alex, but I guess it could be revoked if they appeal coherently.

23:27 DrMann Taxonomists are still trying to decide just how they want to tackle the reptile problem.
23:28 MrAnakinSpecter Is that a skink?
23:28 Wogglebug Supposedly.
23:28 Voct Wogglebug - they look very much like snakes, yes. But they're not, because they've got eyelids, and earholes, and some species have vestigial legs
23:28 MouseMats haha look at its little arms
23:28 MrAnakinSpecter interesting creatures
23:28 MouseMats its like 'you what mate? you fuckin want some?'
23:28 DrMann Snakes are actually just a kind of lizard; they're in the same group as Iguanians and anguimorphs.
23:29 DrMann Meanwhile, you can't have a common ancestor for lizards and crocodiles that doesn't also include birds.
23:30 Guest46836 is twistedGears really afk now
23:30 Guest46836 guest46836 is now afk
23:31 DrMann The choice seems to be either to fold birds under the reptile name, or else split reptiles up into different groups, consisting of, possibly, lizards (including snakes) and tuataras, turtles, and Archosaurs (birds and crocodilians).
23:31 Voct taxonomy is all arbitrary anyway
23:32 DrMann It /has/ been.
23:32 * Live2Die is now known as Live2Away
23:32 DrMann This would make it /less so/.

23:32 Voct DrMann - it's a nomenclature issue. Nomenclature is arbitrary and externally imposed.
23:32 DrMann The goal now is monophyletic groups.
23:32 - Live2Away is back
23:32 Live2Away Okay, that video is of Containment Breach, and I hate Containment Breach
23:32 Live2Away why should I watch that >:|
23:33 Voct DrMann - how about "organism" ?
23:33 MrAnakinSpecter Who's Markiplier?
23:33 Guest46836 o srry
23:33 Voct "Organism" is a monophyletic group.
23:33 Guest46836 ?away
23:33 DrMann The issue here is that we're trying to model the nomenclature to phylogeny, which isn't arbitrary.
23:33 - Live2Away is away (actually doing shit now)
23:33 Voct Guest46836 - you have to use /

23:33 DrMann Yes, voct. It is. And it has a non-arbitrary basis for being monophyletic.
23:34 Voct hey
23:34 Voct my name is LUCA
23:34 DrMann Saying that nomenclature is purely arbitrary is like saying it doesn't matter which chemicals are called oxides.
23:34 Voct I live on the second floor
23:34 MrAnakinSpecter it really isn't arbitrary to biologists, i'm sure
23:34 DrMann But for nomenclature to be useful, it needs to be referent to something in the real world.
23:34 Voct MrAnakinSpecter - do you know about ring species?
23:35 MrAnakinSpecter no idea. I'm more of a historian
23:35 Voct .g "ring species"
23:35 Alexandra Voct: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ring_species — Ring species - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia: "In biology, a ring species is a connected series of neighbouring populations, each of which can interbreed with closely sited related populations, but for which …"
23:35 Guest46836 im no longer away
23:35 Voct A can interbreed with B, which can interbreed with C, which can interbreed with D, which can interbreed with E… which CANNOT interbreed withA
23:36 Guest46836 i watched this video https://www.youtube.com/redirect?q=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.youtube.com%2Fwatch%3Fv%3DiOztnsBPrAA%26index%3D1%26list%3DPL3tRBEVW0hiDL09lO0xjKEix84OY27xet&redir_token=GocHxF_opuFGqvKzOUagh2GB_5t8MTQyNTMzOTMwMkAxNDI1MjUyOTAy
23:36 Voct it's interesting to conceive of ring species in terms of time rather than space
23:36 Voct Guest46836 - please don't paste the URLs of direct Google hits
23:36 Voct because they're ungodly huge
23:37 GottaGoFeast .seen CryogenChaos
23:37 Alexandra GottaGoFeast: cryogenchaos was last seen 4 months, 3 weeks ago saying: Someone described the relationship between Fuan no Tane and Junji Ito as thus: Junji Ito's works involve characters entering strange situations; Fuan no Tane involve strange situations dropping in on characters
23:37 Wogglebug What's the name for a cylinder with the middle removed?
23:37 Guest46836 i didnt know
23:37 Voct torus?
23:37 Voct toroid?
23:37 MrAnakinSpecter Two more cylinders
23:37 Wogglebug .def torus
23:37 Alexandra Wogglebug: torus: noun: 1. A topological space which is a product of two circles. 2. The standard representation of such a space in 3-dimensional Euclidean space: a shape consisting of a ring with a circular cross-section: the shape of an inner tube or hollow doughnut.
23:38 Wogglebug Maybe
23:38 Voct elongated toroid
23:38 Voct toroidal cylinder
23:38 Voct cylindrical torus
23:38 DrMann Hollow cylinder.
23:38 Voct DrMann - that doesn't imply that there's a hole *through* it
23:38 MrAnakinSpecter it is interesting and I see how it conflicts somewhat with standard taxonomy but I still think there are more benefit than harm in categorization
23:39 DrMann Depends. When used as a model in geometry, it usually does (for the purpose of calculating its volume).
23:39 Guest46836 interesting ring species

23:46 BlackWingACU But does Pewdiepie have cosplayers?
23:46 MrAnakinSpecter DrMann: I'm kind of startled that such a product could be profitable for so long. I remember "lol bacon is random" being a thing, like, three years ago.
23:46 Guest46836 LOL that truck is stupid Vince :D
23:46 Metaphysician yawns.
23:46 DrMann Oh, this company makes all kinds of weird sodas.

23:46 Guest46836 laughs
23:47 MrAnakinSpecter Oh i would drink apple pie. That makes sense
23:47 DrMann They make money by people being curious enough to try it.
