| 00:08.08 | file[desk] | I had a course in counterfeit currency last summer |
| 00:08.19 | file[desk] | it was very interesting |
| 00:08.33 | cheers | wow |
| 00:09.26 | cheers | purdy |
| 00:09.33 | cheers | why isn't our money cool like that? |
| 00:09.36 | ChipX86 | our $100 bill needs a satellite. |
| 00:10.12 | cheers | seriously! |
| 00:10.21 | pagefault | canada was the first country in the world |
| 00:10.27 | ChipX86 | that's a lie |
| 00:10.30 | pagefault | to put a satellite in geosynchronous orbit |
| 00:10.33 | ChipX86 | oh. |
| 00:10.34 | cheers | lol |
| 00:10.36 | ChipX86 | still a lie! |
| 00:10.42 | ChipX86 | it was us. Americans are first at everything |
| 00:10.43 | ChipX86 | our country says so |
| 00:11.16 | juanvaldes | wan't it russia? |
| 00:11.23 | juanvaldes | sputnik and all that |
| 00:11.34 | pagefault | yeah first satellite |
| 00:11.36 | cheers | dude... they'reflourescent |
| 00:11.40 | pagefault | this is first geosynchronous |
| 00:11.47 | pagefault | it moves with the earth |
| 00:11.51 | pagefault | so you can use it for communications |
| 00:12.27 | pagefault | sputnik just went around the world as fast as it could |
| 00:12.36 | juanvaldes | ahh |
| 00:13.19 | pagefault | we had the first microwave network too |
| 00:13.21 | pagefault | coast to coast |
| 00:13.22 | pagefault | :P |
| 00:14.38 | pagefault | thats pretty outdated now though |
| 00:14.39 | pagefault | with the internet |
| 00:14.45 | ChipX86 | yep, which we invented. |
| 00:14.48 | file | I remember that commercial about it... |
| 00:15.37 | pagefault | yeah but canada has the fastest network on earth now |
| 00:15.38 | pagefault | :P |
| 00:16.13 | MysticOne | too bad there's nothing there that anyone wants to access |
| 00:16.18 | ChipX86 | the US has California, which has lots of cute girls in bikinis. |
| 00:16.19 | ChipX86 | I win |
| 00:16.25 | kergoth | hehe |
| 00:16.33 | pagefault | yeah |
| 00:16.36 | pagefault | no bikini's here |
| 00:16.38 | pagefault | just igloos |
| 00:16.39 | pagefault | and snow |
| 00:16.42 | ChipX86 | igloos are sexy |
| 00:16.49 | pagefault | they look like breasts |
| 00:16.54 | pagefault | if you tilt your head and squint |
| 00:17.02 | file | don't forget about the girls that strip down and jump in the cold cold water |
| 00:17.21 | juanvaldes | it's 80 today. lots of almost naked girls going to the swimming pool behind our apt |
| 00:17.48 | ChipX86 | our pool needs to be cleaned still :( if it was ready, I'd have a bunch of almost naked girls over in 2 days. |
| 00:18.10 | juanvaldes | go bug managment :p |
| 00:18.10 | pagefault | man |
| 00:18.13 | pagefault | my pool is still frozen |
| 00:18.16 | file | if I went swimming today I'd be frozen and have hypothermia |
| 00:18.17 | ChipX86 | management is Grandma |
| 00:18.35 | pagefault | people go swimming in lake ontario in january |
| 00:18.40 | pagefault | you would get hypotherma |
| 00:18.43 | pagefault | and some kind of disease |
| 00:18.48 | pagefault | or something |
| 00:19.33 | ChipX86 | yayy |
| 00:19.39 | ChipX86 | we're getting the rest of the local stations on our DirecTV in April |
| 00:19.57 | ChipX86 | tivo's going to need a bigger harddrive |
| 00:23.22 | MysticOne | I want to go home but there's no way I'd make it :( |
| 00:23.27 | ChipX86 | :( |
| 00:23.49 | cheers | would you get lost? |
| 00:24.14 | MysticOne | no, they fucked up the bridge traffic here today |
| 00:24.26 | cheers | ah |
| 00:25.27 | MysticOne | traffic is backed up several miles from the bridge now |
| 00:25.27 | MysticOne | and either I can wait, or drive 40 miles around it |
| 00:25.27 | MysticOne | they closed one lane of the bridge this afternoon (at about 1PM) to work on painting the fucking lines at the other end |
| 00:25.27 | MysticOne | so all the traffic backed up |
| 00:25.27 | MysticOne | and it still hasn't gone through |
| 00:25.53 | cheers | so you'd make it...it'd just take a REALLY long time... |
| 00:26.26 | pagefault | crap |
| 00:26.27 | MysticOne | yeah |
| 00:26.28 | pagefault | outbid on ebay |
| 00:26.30 | MysticOne | file: thanks, that's what I need! |

| 00:41.03 | ChipX86 | bbs |
| 00:42.07 | pagefault | haw |
| 00:42.09 | pagefault | apple newton |
| 00:42.25 | pagefault | it sold for $75 |
| 00:42.28 | pagefault | thats way too much |
| 00:44.28 | scanline | heh |
| 00:44.43 | pagefault | man |
| 00:44.53 | pagefault | this guy who is bidding against me is buying all the model m's on ebay |
| 00:45.02 | file | lol |
| 00:45.03 | gonkulator | ROFL |
| 00:45.13 | gonkulator | pagefault: I am still planning on sending you one BTW |
| 00:45.35 | pagefault | l33t |
| 00:45.39 | pagefault | can't have too many |
| 00:46.16 | gonkulator | do you have one now? |
| 00:46.21 | pagefault | nah |
| 00:46.26 | pagefault | I will if this guy doesn't outbid me |
| 00:46.29 | gonkulator | ah, ok |
| 00:46.41 | pagefault | i'm not dropping $30 on a keyboard |
| 00:47.11 | gonkulator | :-D |
| 00:47.13 | pagefault | but the reason I like this one is because it's clean |
| 00:47.24 | gonkulator | they're easy to clean |
| 00:47.24 | pagefault | a lot on ebay are marked up the heck with pen or crumbs |
| 00:47.25 | pagefault | yeah |
| 00:47.37 | gonkulator | wow |
| 00:47.40 | gonkulator | 33 updates... |
| 00:47.44 | gonkulator | thats a lot of new packages |
| 00:47.48 | cheers | why not just go buy a new one? |
| 00:47.51 | pagefault | www.clickykeyboard.com |
| 00:47.55 | pagefault | an entire site to buying them |
| 00:47.55 | pagefault | hehe |
| 00:47.59 | cheers | hi darth_mall |
| 00:48.00 | gonkulator | cheers: they don't make them anymore :) |
| 00:48.07 | gonkulator | cheers: they stopped making them in the 80s |
| 00:48.12 | pagefault | made by logitech ones are poopy |
| 00:48.13 | cheers | what kind of keyboard si that? |
| 00:48.22 | cheers | *nod* don't like logitec |
| 00:48.29 | pagefault | must be model M |
| 00:48.29 | cheers | my macally is nice, though :) |
| 00:48.31 | pagefault | with grey IBM logo |
| 00:48.32 | pagefault | :P |
| 00:49.02 | darth_mall | you can't see the damn caps lock light unless you're *right over it* |
| 00:49.15 | scanline | cheers: the model M is cool because instead of cheap little rubber membrane switches, each key has a spring and some capacitive contacts. They last just about forever usually and they have a great feel to them |
| 00:49.17 | pagefault | only problem with model m's is that you can't sneak on your computer in the middle of the night if you share a room |
| 00:49.20 | cheers | darth_mall: I usually cup my hand around it, but yeah, that bothers me,too |
| 00:49.25 | darth_mall | it's so small and cute and *useless* |
| 00:49.28 | pagefault | they make a ton of noise |
| 00:49.29 | pagefault | :P |
| 00:49.32 | cheers | lol |
| 00:49.33 | scanline | yep :) |
| 00:49.42 | cheers | scanline: I HATE the feel of those!! |
| 00:49.48 | cheers | we have em in our lab & they drive me bonkers!! |
| 00:49.53 | cheers | http://www.modelm.org/mboard.html |
| 00:49.53 | scanline | bah :P |
| 00:49.56 | cheers | those'ns right? |
| 00:50.07 | cheers | they're all clicky and youhave to seriously POKE em |
| 00:50.14 | scanline | yup |
| 00:50.17 | darth_mall | mmm... model m |
| 00:50.19 | scanline | I love 'em |
| 00:50.22 | cheers | don't like! |
| 00:50.23 | pagefault | they were originally made like that so people on typewriters could get used to computers |
| 00:50.36 | gonkulator | in fact... |
| 00:50.43 | gonkulator | of our group at least |
| 00:50.46 | pagefault | but those keyboards |
| 00:50.47 | darth_mall | it's like typing on jello |
| 00:50.49 | pagefault | they will last forever |
| 00:50.50 | gonkulator | yeah |
| 00:50.58 | gonkulator | this keyboard isn't going to break... ever |
| 00:51.00 | gonkulator | though |
| 00:51.04 | gonkulator | scanline: how did you break yours? |
| 00:51.06 | pagefault | and if someone gets you angry |
| 00:51.13 | pagefault | you can always threaten them with your keyboard |
| 00:51.21 | cheers | john says I'm wrong |
| 00:51.21 | pagefault | since you could probably seriously hurt someone with it |
| 00:51.42 | scanline | gonkulator: spilled a glass of water in it |
| 00:51.42 | file | and then turned it upside down and got the water under the caps and into the circuitry? |
| 00:51.42 | scanline | gonkulator: I was surprised that did it though, there might have been something conductive inside that the water washed onto the contacts |
| 00:51.48 | pagefault | hehe |
| 00:51.59 | pagefault | weee |
| 00:52.03 | gonkulator | ah, ok :) |
| 00:52.16 | scanline | file: it was acting like one row or one column on the keyboard matrix was shorted out |
| 00:52.22 | pagefault | yes that is another use of them |
| 00:52.24 | file | scanline: eek |
| 00:52.28 | pagefault | you can always threaten them with your keyboard |
| 00:52.30 | pagefault | like |
| 00:52.32 | pagefault | if they piss you off |
| 00:52.35 | pagefault | GO AWAY |
| 00:53.03 | pagefault | too bad IBM sold the patent off for them |
| 00:53.15 | scanline | I still have my broken Model M though, so if necessary I might be able to fix it by giving it a good cleaning |
| 00:53.30 | pagefault | i'm on a IBM model M2 right now |
| 00:53.33 | pagefault | it's not clicky though |
| 00:53.37 | pagefault | and it's made by lexmark |
| 00:53.46 | gonkulator | *just* in case :) |
| 00:53.51 | pagefault | yeah |
| 00:53.53 | darth_mall | it's good finger exercise |
| 00:53.55 | pagefault | stock up while you can |
| 00:54.01 | darth_mall | my parents always complain when I type while I'm on the phone |
| 00:54.07 | pagefault | it will be 2050 |
| 00:54.08 | scanline | hehe |
| 00:54.08 | darth_mall | "What is that loud clicking?" |
| 00:54.12 | pagefault | and I will still be using that keyboard |
| 00:54.22 | darth_mall | dad always remembers it's my keyboard and laughs |
| 00:54.26 | darth_mall | mom never seems to remember |
| 00:54.34 | scanline | pagefault: you might need to build an adaptor for it to work on modern computers then :) |
| 00:54.41 | pagefault | yeah i'll just get a PS/2 to USB |
| 00:54.44 | pagefault | then when USB is outdated |
| 00:54.45 | pagefault | USB to whatever |
| 00:54.46 | darth_mall | pff, modern computers |
| 00:54.48 | pagefault | and just keep adding on |
| 00:54.48 | pagefault | :) |
| 00:54.49 | scanline | pagefault: hehe |
| 00:55.36 | darth_mall | scanline: you should come home now and do the rest of my japanese for me ^^ |

| 00:56.15 | scanline | xchat seems to have closed one too many tabs |
| 00:56.15 | darth_mall | ~andromedaslap pagefault |
| 00:56.18 | | ACTION beats pagefault into protomatter with the andromeda galaxy |

| 01:12.01 | cheers | what the heck's sheepsweeper? |
| 01:12.10 | ChipX86 | a game I've hacked on from time to time |
| 01:12.18 | ChipX86 | it's a mix between sheep herding and minesweeper |
| 01:12.39 | ChipX86 | you have to get them from their pen to a safe area by clearing away mines, and herding them away from unknown safe areas using a broom |
| 01:12.46 | CIA-5 | navi-misc: 03evan * r3188 10palantir/PalantirUI/GtkPalantir.py: Nicer formatting on our end for plain /msg's. |

| 01:16.32 | scanline | ChipX86: your sheep is quite cute :) |
| 01:16.49 | ChipX86 | people compare them to rats and stuff :( |
| 01:16.55 | scanline | bah |
| 01:16.58 | cheers | this sound like a deal to y'all? |
| 01:16.59 | cheers | http://www.zipzoomfly.com/jsp/ProductDetail.jsp?ProductCode=82561 |
| 01:17.33 | ChipX86 | http://www.chipx86.com/sheep/splashscreen.jpg |
| 01:17.37 | ChipX86 | it needs to be more fluffy |
| 01:17.45 | scanline | wow |

| 01:18.07 | ChipX86 | cheers: I'd buy it |
| 01:18.10 | cheers | thx :) |
| 01:18.15 | ChipX86 | though actually, I'd probably go for 256MB |
| 01:18.28 | scanline | ChipX86: yeah, the texture and geometry could both use a lot of polishing, but it's still cute.. you have the right basic idea :) |
| 01:18.31 | CIA-5 | navi-misc: 03evan * r3189 10palantir/PalantirUI/GtkPalantir.py: arf |
| 01:18.31 | ChipX86 | but then I'd be tempted to go to 512MB, and while I'm in the high price range, I'd look for 1GB.. and it just goes on. |
| 01:18.34 | cheers | school had em for 25, but they ran out before I cot my act together |
| 01:18.42 | darth_mall | wow that commit took a long time to show |
