| 02:14.22 | kergoth | i'm kind of liking the value in being human, but an airplane works too |
| 02:14.27 | darth_mall | cheers: you too will discover it someday |

| 02:17.34 | cheers | darth_mall: what's so great about flyng? |
| 02:17.39 | darth_mall | rather... movies he's in |
| 02:17.43 | kergoth | he isnt a very good actor, but by comparison.. |
| 02:17.44 | cheers | I dont' even like going over the altamont, I think a plane would make my head explode |
| 02:18.01 | kergoth | his character was amusing in deep blue sea |
| 02:18.05 | kergoth | didnt really like that movie though |
| 02:18.10 | darth_mall | cheers: I didn't say anything about flying being good... I said the value of being an airplane |
| 02:18.16 | darth_mall | I said nothing about flying specifically |
| 02:18.30 | darth_mall | someday I'll have all my friends trained to listen to what I actually say ^^ |
| 02:19.55 | cheers | being an airplane is different from being ON an airplane |

| 02:40.17 | nullpuppy | RE: misspelling on my shotglasses... |
| 02:40.18 | nullpuppy | Very strange indeed! I'll have somebody follow-up on that right away to |
| 02:40.18 | nullpuppy | see if it the problem still exists. Thanks for the note (and I do think |
| 02:40.19 | nullpuppy | we'll have product review capabilities sometime sooner than later ;) |
| 02:40.20 | nullpuppy | :) |
| 02:40.32 | nullpuppy | gah.. stupid multi lines... sorry :( |
| 02:40.47 | merlin262 | eg: not a perfect square in pixels, but a perfect physical square on the display |
| 02:41.36 | darth_mall | merlin262: why does it have to be that perfect |
| 02:42.08 | merlin262 | because, I want it to. :P |
| 02:44.37 | darth_mall | <scanline> merlin262: if the monitor is adjusted right, the pixels should always be square on normal PC hardware |
| 02:46.09 | merlin262 | huh? I thought the normal 1024x768 had unsquare pixels |
| 02:46.14 | merlin262 | it definately does on my display |
| 02:48.01 | darth_mall | <scanline> so change your video mode or fix your monitor |
| 02:48.40 | darth_mall | merlin262: 1024/768 = 4/3 |
| 02:48.51 | darth_mall | so unless your monitor isn't 4:3 aspect ratio, your pixels are square |
| 02:49.03 | file | ooh square pixels! |
| 02:49.14 | darth_mall | there are a few silly video modes, like 1280x1024, that don't have square pixels if you fit them into the same space as other modes |
| 02:49.31 | darth_mall | but generally you're supposed to assume the pixels are square- and if they aren't, it's the hardware's fault |
| 02:51.31 | merlin262 | darth_mall: aren't there ways of grabbing the geometry? |
| 02:52.30 | merlin262 | bah, I want this to work on any display |
