<guitarplayer> According to this article I just read, major rivers are currently so low that ships can only transport about half their load. And that in central Europe where a shortage of water is normally not one of your problems.
<Izambri> did that happen before?
<Izambri> the level of the Rhine so low, I mean
<guitarplayer> it's been the driest year since they started recording it (whenever that was) IIRC
<Izambri> regarding water and rivers in Middle Europe the only news I recall reading/hearing here are floodings
<guitarplayer> idk, but usually you have the opposite problem
<guitarplayer> so yeah, floods instead of drought
<guitarplayer> last year we had floods, this year it's drought
<Izambri> basically it goes this way: Middle Europe, floods; southern Europe, droughts and fires; Scandinavia, nothing noticeable; British Isles, wind storms; France, fiery protests.

<pharazon> i'm 100.000000000000000000000000000000000000000000% gay
<CUM_SIURAN> pharazon: lol gay
<CUM_SIURAN> also thats a lot of digits of precision
<CUM_SIURAN> are you sure you're that accurately gay?
<pharazon> yeah the recent SI change made it that by definition
<twabs>
<pharazon> hello twabs
<CUM_SIURAN> pharazon: so the SI unit of gayness is now linked to the Pharazon Gayness Universal Constant?
<Izambri> that's great news
<pharazon> i don't make the rules
<Izambri> I can't wait to buy a gay-o-meter and measure my gayness in pharazons.
<Whimemsz> it's called a gaydar, plz
<Izambri> I differentiate between a gaydar (for me that's a gay radar) and a gay-o-meter (the machine that measures gayness).
<Whimemsz> hmm
<Slereah> what is your level on the gay-o-meter
<Whimemsz> fair point
<Izambri> the Gaydar™ being a detector of gays.
<Izambri> although you can have the deluxe version which integrates a Gaydar and a gay-o-meter.
<Izambri> the supreme tool
