00:05.24 | cladhaire | not that I ever want bug reports from her on irc |
00:05.28 | cladhaire | or anyone really :P |
00:05.39 | cladhaire | Oh, and whoever said BT sucked, they were right |
00:05.52 | cladhaire | I can't maintain a connection for very long |
00:06.27 | cladhaire | perhaps i should set up a bouncer on my office machine, and ssh into it |
00:06.31 | Fin | are you talking about British Telecom? |
00:06.31 | bleeter | anyone know if the guild vault permission issue still pending a fix in a future patch? |
00:06.34 | cladhaire | Fin: yes. |
00:06.36 | bleeter | or whether it's fixed now |
00:06.44 | Fin | BT sucking is a physical constant of the universe |
00:07.00 | Fin | they must suck, or the world folds in on itself |
00:07.10 | bleeter | Australia's Telstra sucks more! :P |
00:07.19 | Fin | now, we fight |
00:07.27 | cogwheel | cladhaire: btw: there's a bug in lightheaded... for some reason it can't tell the difference between quests with the same name |
00:07.29 | cogwheel | <.< |

00:08.00 | Saint-N | happy birthday now you're one year older |
00:08.02 | Fin | actually I had a question about LH - does it ignore class specific quests deliberately? they never seem to have any comments. just curious. |
00:08.06 | Saint-N | happy birthdayyour life still isnt over |
00:08.13 | cladhaire | Fin: class specific quests are given at the level you accept them now |
00:08.20 | cladhaire | this causes a problem, since title/level are used as the key for the quest |
00:08.23 | cladhaire | since the levels vary, BAM |
00:08.30 | Fin | aha |
00:08.41 | Fin | I get it, you don't know which set of data to load |
00:08.42 | cladhaire | hence my begging for queryable quest ids |
00:08.44 | cladhaire | we'll see if i get em |

00:20.02 | sdouble | bleeter, is this the previous guild leader to new guild bug you speak of? |
00:20.17 | bleeter | Wobwork: basically, if you plan on going anywhere in tasmania outside of hobart or launceston, and want to use a mobile... buy a Telstra branded phone. |
00:20.55 | bleeter | sdouble: the bug where permissions for GV access in a former guild would carry over to a new guild |
00:21.56 | bleeter | Wobwork: so this chap almost bled to death 'coz his phone wouldn't work like he had been lead to believe, and all Telstra do is blame him for not buying the corerct product. What stuns me is that Telstra's marketers aren't out there working out who's using the 'wrong' phones and trying to sell them 'right' ones |
00:22.01 | sdouble | oh, it was any access? |
00:22.15 | sdouble | I thought it was just the guild master that was bugged |
00:22.38 | bleeter | sdouble: if the previous guild had granted complete access, they'd have compelte access on joining a new guild until the guildmaster forcefully set permissions |
00:23.14 | bleeter | sdouble: that's to say, a new guild member won't inherit the default permissions for the rank as set in the new guild, they keep the permissions from their old guild |

00:27.05 | ScytheBlade1 | Er. Random fact. |
00:27.08 | ScytheBlade1 | http://finance.yahoo.com/q?s=aapl&d=t |
00:27.15 | ScytheBlade1 | Apple stock dropped $9.74 today. |
00:27.18 | bleeter | their stock price went down |
00:27.25 | ScytheBlade1 | ... how? |
00:27.30 | bleeter | yeah, 'coz Jobs didn't say anything the rumour mill hadn't been saying for two months |
00:27.52 | Thunder_Child | because of air |
00:27.58 | Thunder_Child | and the lack of a 13in. MBP |
00:28.14 | ScytheBlade1 | I'll be honest, putting a hard drive in a white plastic shell and giving it wifi screams "GIVE US YOUR MONEY" |
00:28.27 | ScytheBlade1 | But I would have though that people liked the MBA... |
00:28.33 | Thunder_Child | thin white plastic shell |
00:28.46 | Thunder_Child | very thin... |
00:29.19 | bleeter | I'm looking forward to the 'ways to break your air' videos |

00:29.56 | bleeter | Thunder_Child: they make the blenders, maybe he can make a bigger blender ;) |
00:30.18 | Lunessa | I'm thinking a large disk and/or disk array in a case with wifi for small networks would probably be a very very popular item. |
00:30.25 | sdouble | there's been an awful lot of talk about the macbook air, did it just come out today or something? |
00:30.35 | bleeter | and once again, of course, the english get screwed over in the Apple pricing |
00:30.40 | ScytheBlade1 | Lunessa: yeah, it's called a SAN with a wifi card. :) |
00:30.51 | bleeter | sdouble: annoucned at macworld, or whatever, by jobs.. yeah |
00:31.26 | Thunder_Child | Lunessa, if thats not a low power/range on the wifi it's not going to work for a secure envirnment |
00:31.49 | bleeter | "The 1.8GHz, 64GB SSD model will cost £2028/$3098. ... That $3098 equates to £1571 at today's exchange rate. Even allowing for UK sales tax, that's a rum deal for Brits." |
00:31.49 | Thunder_Child | legal wifi signal interception ftw |
00:32.07 | Lunessa | Yeah, true - but still I can imagine it as having many uses in the home. |

01:45.28 | Lunessa | that's called marketing. |

01:52.37 | art3mis | external on a notebook is retarded and annoying |
01:52.48 | art3mis | particularly since "ripping" dvds is illegal |

02:01.32 | kd3 | ahahaha |
02:03.03 | Mr_Rabies2 | ripping dvd's isn't illegal |
02:03.19 | Mr_Rabies2 | selling/distributing the ripped versions sure is, though |
02:03.31 | art3mis | Mr_Rabies2: not if the riaa and mpaa have thier way |
02:03.37 | kd3 | breaking CSS in order to rip DVDs is still illegal |
02:03.53 | art3mis | they're actually trying to claim that making mp3 copies of songs is illegal because it's NOT the form it was orginally distributed in |
02:04.20 | art3mis | keep in mind this is of cd's taht you already purchased and own |
02:04.32 | Thrae|Work | The DCMA is the only document that really covers this, and it's very vague, so it can be interpreted to mean what art3mis is talking about. |
02:04.36 | art3mis | not signed out from the usenet library |
02:05.10 | Mr_Rabies2 | thrae: but there's plenty of other legal precedent setting it in the opposite direction |
02:05.22 | art3mis | Thrae|Work: there was an article a little bit ago(about a week) about a girl being sued by the riaa for that exact reason |
02:05.40 | Thrae|Work | Mr_Rabies2: None of that is federal yet |

02:06.26 | MentalPower | since it came after |
02:06.41 | art3mis | the HRA still applies in .ca though |
02:06.46 | MentalPower | true |
02:06.51 | art3mis | where fairuse still reigns king |
02:06.52 | Mr_Rabies2 | so nero's illegal? |
02:06.58 | art3mis | technically no |
02:07.00 | art3mis | and technically yes |
02:07.01 | MentalPower | does .ca not have a DMCA equivalent? |
02:07.05 | art3mis | MentalPower: nope |
02:07.09 | art3mis | fairuse baby |
02:07.14 | MentalPower | art3mis: lucky bastard |
02:07.22 | art3mis | thats why most torrent sites are in .ca waters |
02:07.28 | art3mis | if not euro |
02:07.40 | kd3 | funny how they keep trying to drop a $70 tax on iPods, though |
02:07.50 | art3mis | nero is illegal IF you rip things that you dont own the rights to |
02:07.54 | MentalPower | Sweden is also popular for torrent sites |
02:08.03 | art3mis | its not illegal if you use it to author things you've created |
02:08.07 | Mr_Rabies2 | art3mis |
02:08.13 | Mr_Rabies2 | the CRIA is why demonoid shut down |

02:20.27 | art3mis | yeah i believe so |
02:22.12 | tecnobrat | lol |
02:22.16 | tecnobrat | why ban Canada? |
02:22.31 | Thrae|Work | "Ban Canada, Ban Canada...." |
02:23.12 | art3mis | if you ban the country you're in you can subvert any laws about it in grey area |
02:23.18 | art3mis | akin to the sat rules |
02:23.33 | art3mis | bellvu you can "hack" in the us ecause it doesnt have jusidiction here |
02:23.41 | art3mis | ditto for dtv and dish in .ca |
02:23.45 | Shirik | That's a very complicated statement |
02:23.48 | art3mis | thee is NOTHING they can do about it |
02:23.50 | TecnoBrat | There is a presidence in Canada that its not illegal to share files |
02:23.53 | Shirik | Don't say "nothing" |
02:23.59 | Shirik | Because that doesn't tell the full story |
02:24.03 | TecnoBrat | So I'm confused why you would ban Canada |
02:24.16 | art3mis | shirik: it's been talked and discussed with law enforcement |
02:24.20 | Shirik | Yes it has |
02:24.22 | art3mis | the only legallity is on the dealers |
02:24.28 | art3mis | im talking end user |
02:24.40 | TecnoBrat | "Sharing copyrighted works on peer-to-peer networks is legal in Canada, a federal judge ruled on Wednesday, handing the record industry a sharp setback in its international fight against file swappers." |
02:24.47 | TecnoBrat | Thats what I'm talking about btw |
02:25.03 | art3mis | and thats a very iffy thing seeing as how it has to be proven that the hardware being sold "can hack" the local country |
02:25.34 | art3mis | dish == bev for all intent and purpose |
02:25.47 | Thrae|Work | Wait, Canada doesn't have federal judges, they're a democracy with a central government |
02:26.05 | art3mis | however dtv is different enough to not suffer(despite the fact that they almost successfully shutdown the dtv hacked market with thier p4 encryption |
02:26.37 | art3mis | i dont know why someone would want dish of dtv if they've got bev though |
02:26.41 | art3mis | bev porn > * |
02:26.42 | Thrae|Work | Canada's provinces are federated? I thought you had to be a republic for that. |
02:26.42 | art3mis | ;) |
02:27.38 | TecnoBrat | Thrae|Work, what? |
02:27.51 | TecnoBrat | Are you being serious? or what |
02:28.10 | TecnoBrat | because, yes, we have a federal court. |
02:28.44 | Thrae|Work | Well I didn't know Canada's provinces were federated. I thought everything was run by the central government. |
02:28.55 | TecnoBrat | No |
02:29.02 | TecnoBrat | We have provincial governments |
02:29.06 | Thrae|Work | So the provinces can pass their own laws? |
02:29.09 | TecnoBrat | And provincial courts |
02:29.16 | TecnoBrat | Some, yes |
02:29.33 | Thrae|Work | Canada should be the United Provinces of America. |
02:30.05 | Thrae|Work | That's what the USA will rename them when we take them over in 2050 for their oil. |

02:30.57 | TecnoBrat | huh? |
02:31.28 | Mr_Rabies2 | 2050, that's pretty optimistic |
02:31.41 | Mr_Rabies2 | the way things are going i see that happening by november |
02:31.54 | bleeter | Thrae|Work: to prolly confuse you more, Australia is a Federation, a Commonwealth, a Democracy as well as having a Monarchy ;) |
02:32.38 | Thrae|Work | Australia is a Commonwealth of whom? |
02:32.55 | bleeter | the States |
02:33.19 | TecnoBrat | We elect provincial premiers of each province |
02:33.25 | bleeter | in 1901, the states federates and became a commonwealth |
02:33.31 | bleeter | *federated |
02:33.51 | bleeter | prolyl more correctly, the states became a federation, forming the commonwealth |
02:34.11 | bleeter | TecnoBrat: sounds similar to our state/federal system |
02:34.20 | TecnoBrat | it is ... |
02:34.57 | Thrae|Work | Ah, Canada is a democracy, it's just federated as well, along with a constitutional monarchy. I got confused because I thought federation required a republic, but that's not the case. |
02:35.48 | TecnoBrat | Monarchy? haha |
02:36.25 | Thrae|Work | Canada has a constitutional monarchy with Queen Elizabeth the Second as Head of State. |
02:36.46 | TecnoBrat | With no offical power at all. |
02:36.51 | bleeter | I'll give the Commonwealth's Monarchy system one thing, at least the loonies in charge of us (a) have stuff all power (b) can be seen coming from about 20-30 years off |
02:37.01 | Thrae|Work | No, I think she has the power to declare war, same in England. |
02:37.06 | TecnoBrat | No, she doesn't |
02:37.18 | Mr_Rabies2 | with what? |
02:37.19 | bleeter | Not in .au either |
02:37.21 | Mr_Rabies2 | lumberjacks? |
02:37.26 | Thrae|Work | Well, it's still a constitutional monarchy, even without official power. |
02:37.33 | MentalPower | england's queen can declare war? |
02:37.45 | bleeter | MentalPower: most heads of state can |
02:37.51 | Thrae|Work | Yes, England's Queen can declare war. |
02:37.54 | MentalPower | with what army? |
02:38.03 | Mr_Rabies2 | soccer hooligans |
02:38.31 | MentalPower | I declare myself king of my desk, and I declare war against bleeter's desk! |
02:38.38 | bleeter | from memory, she could declare war, but the formal executive could over-ride her |
02:38.44 | Thrae|Work | Mr_Rabies2: Can the Queen appoint a temporary Prime Minister if there's a deadlock in the Parliament, like Belgium did? |
02:38.55 | bleeter | ie, the governer-general, prime minister and a couple of other ministers |
02:38.58 | Mr_Rabies2 | hell if i know |
02:39.06 | Thrae|Work | I bet she can |
02:39.21 | bleeter | Thrae|Work: typically that'd be done by the Governor General, in consultation with all major parties |
02:39.38 | bleeter | ie, the Queen herself would stay out of it, her representitive would handle it |
02:39.46 | Thrae|Work | Right |
02:39.46 | MentalPower | bleeter: this willitblend.com website is so friggin nuts |
02:39.51 | Mr_Rabies2 | i'm not a huge fan of the whole "appointed prime minister" concept personally, on a tangent |
02:40.10 | Thrae|Work | Mr_Rabies2: It sure saved Belgium's ass |
02:40.21 | Thrae|Work | They were close to civil war |
02:40.42 | Mr_Rabies2 | i'd prefer an election to an appointment for a position like that, but i don't give a damn since i don't live there |
02:41.29 | Thrae|Work | The problem is, if the parliament is split, wouldn't the election also be split? Since the parliament represents the votes of the people. Supposedly. |
02:41.37 | Mr_Rabies2 | not at all |
02:41.46 | Mr_Rabies2 | just like the electoral college represents the votes of the people |
02:41.49 | Mr_Rabies2 | (not at all) |
02:42.27 | Thrae|Work | Yeah, forgot about Canadian's nefarious Shadow Government run by the French Canadians. |
02:42.34 | kd3 | but it's our only safeguard from a direct democracy, which scared the living hell out of the founding fathers |
02:43.02 | Shirik | I don't remember the last time the electoral college went against the votes of the people |
02:43.06 | Thrae|Work | kd3: A constitutional republic wasn't that bad of an idea |
02:43.13 | Shirik | They really should just get rid of that idea |
02:43.16 | Shirik | it's kinda pointless |
02:43.56 | Thrae|Work | Shirik: 2001, Al Gore vs Bush -- Al Gore won the Popular Vote but lost the election from the Electoral College's tabulation |
02:43.58 | TecnoBrat | The only difference is we vote for a local running candidate, who gets a seat in the Provincial govt, which at the same time votes for the Premier |
02:44.00 | _sysrage | did showing of buffs in a raid get screwed up globally or is it just SRF? like if another mage gives people int, i can't see it anymore in SRF |
02:44.04 | TecnoBrat | Same thing with our federal govt |
02:44.13 | Shirik | that's not the same thing |
02:44.25 | Mr_Rabies2 | it's still not representing the votes of the people |
02:44.36 | Mr_Rabies2 | not accurately at least |
02:44.37 | TecnoBrat | voting for the local MP gives a vote to his party and also the leader |
02:44.45 | Thrae|Work | The popular vote is closer to the "vote of the people" then the electoral college |
02:45.08 | TecnoBrat | yea, I'm just saying how its done thats all |
02:45.12 | _sysrage | anybody? beuller? |
02:45.28 | Shirik | I'm talking about literally the electoral college going against the votes of the people, which is possible, it just doesn't happen |
02:45.38 | Thrae|Work | _sysrage: The only raid frames I would ever use are PerfectRaid or Grid |
02:45.41 | kd3 | do /you/ trust the "vote of the people" the average intelligence of the majority of the population scare me |
02:45.52 | _sysrage | fine, does praid show you buffs? |
02:45.57 | Thrae|Work | Yes |
02:45.58 | Shirik | kd3, it doesn't matter |
02:45.59 | kd3 | _sysrage, there've been several reports of buff filtering getting screwed up in 2.3.2, but I haven't heard any more than that |
02:46.01 | Shirik | Bush still got elected |
02:46.11 | _sysrage | kd3: ty |
02:46.21 | Thrae|Work | kd3: Go see the movie Idiocracy |
02:47.15 | Thrae|Work | Or I should say, rent it |
02:48.04 | Kirkburn | Question - was this change in 2.3.2? http://www.wowwiki.com/Patch_2.3.3 |
02:49.29 | Lunessa | *shrug* Direct democracy - 1 person, one direct vote all all things - doesn't work with out an amazing communications system and factual reporting of all information available to all parties who are equally capable of rational thought. Thus, representational republics will be the major for of "democracy" that we see for a while. |

03:02.27 | TecnoBrat | yea, its happened in Canada a few times I am pretty sure |
03:02.44 | Kirkburn | I guess such is always the effect of different populations in voting areas |
03:03.23 | Kirkburn | Hmm, in fact, even if that weren't true, it could still happen |
03:03.26 | Kirkburn | Yay democracy :P |
03:03.44 | TecnoBrat | yep |
03:04.00 | TecnoBrat | even if the areas had an identical population |
03:04.37 | Kirkburn | You'd need quite a weird system to fix it (so the overall govt and local govt are both representative), but it'd be confusing and probably still wouldn't work |
03:04.58 | TecnoBrat | say there is 3 areas, one is a landslide 99% vote to party A, and the other two are 51% vs 49% for party B, party B wins 2 seats, party A wins 1 |
03:05.06 | TecnoBrat | But party A has a lot more votes |
03:05.27 | TecnoBrat | Heh yea. |
03:05.32 | TecnoBrat | I don't know about the UK govt |
03:05.49 | TecnoBrat | but the CA govt really focuses on the HoC, and not the prime minister |
03:05.57 | TecnoBrat | at least as far as making decisions go |
03:06.03 | Kirkburn | I mean, you just have to look at Italy to see how proportional representation gets on (50 govts since WW2 last I recall) |
03:07.47 | bleeter | Kirkburn: meh, we do fine here with proportional voting, only had one thing approaching a crisis since WW2 |
03:08.05 | bleeter | Kirkburn: mind you were use Hare-Clake proportional, rather than the other systems which all seem whack to me |
03:08.13 | bleeter | *Hare-Clark |
03:08.52 | bleeter | (prolly 'best' known as STV, although strictly not what we have here, tho we were the first to use it iirc) |
03:09.25 | bleeter | a variant's also used for our senate |
03:09.34 | TecnoBrat | a what? |
03:09.49 | bleeter | Hare-Clark/STV voting system |
03:09.59 | TecnoBrat | is that like DKP? :PP |
03:10.05 | TecnoBrat | DKP in STV |
03:10.06 | bleeter | this was as rebuttal to Kirkburn's comments about proportional voting |
03:10.08 | TecnoBrat | that sounds strange |
03:10.14 | Fin | normal people do not know this much detail about voting systems |
03:10.18 | bleeter | bah :P |
03:10.19 | Fin | that is all. |
03:10.26 | bleeter | Single Transferrable Vote |
03:10.30 | TecnoBrat | bleeter, I'll have to go read about it |
03:10.35 | Kirkburn | me too :) |
03:10.41 | bleeter | just wiki for Hare-Clark |
03:10.49 | bleeter | will redirect you |
03:11.02 | TecnoBrat | http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Single_Transferable_Vote |
03:11.36 | bleeter | "Tasmanian House of Assembly to be the first parliament in the world elected by what became known as the Hare-Clark system" ;) |
03:11.56 | TecnoBrat | Oh interesting |
03:12.08 | TecnoBrat | In STV, each voter ranks the list of candidates in order of preference. In other words (under the most common ballot design), they place a '1' beside their most preferred candidate, a '2' beside their second most preferred, and so on. |
03:12.13 | TecnoBrat | Weird |
03:12.13 | bleeter | think we were also amongst the first parliaments to allow women to vote for it |
03:12.14 | TecnoBrat | hehe |
03:12.46 | TecnoBrat | how do you weight those? |
03:13.33 | bleeter | if no-one has 50%+1 of primary votes, then the person with lowest primary votes has their votes recounted, and the 2nd preference is given |
03:14.05 | bleeter | ie, the vote gets transferred from whoever was the primary preference, but got the least total primaries, to whomever is indicated as the 2nd preference on the vote |
03:14.12 | bleeter | so on and so forth until 50%+1 is reached |
03:14.57 | Shirik | That's somewhat like what's going on in the US dem primaries this year |
03:15.17 | bleeter | I think it's roxor. if the guy I prefer misses out, then I still can kinda have a say |
03:16.41 | Thrae|Work | Huckabee / Colbert '08 |
03:16.54 | bleeter | Shirik: oddly enough, what was implemented in Tasmania was, to some degree, a reaction to what Clark saw as the failings of the US democratic system |
03:17.18 | bleeter | Hogger '08 |
03:17.56 | Thrae|Work | I thought they attempted a democracy in Tasmania. |
03:18.01 | TecnoBrat | dude, that makes no sense to me |
03:18.09 | TecnoBrat | you end up giving votes to random people? |
03:18.17 | bleeter | not random |
03:18.35 | bleeter | there's say, 8 candidates.. I mark in order of my preference 1 through to 8 |
03:18.47 | TecnoBrat | All of his votes have Carter as the next-place choice, and are reallocated to Carter. This gives Carter 20 votes and he is elected, filling the second seat. |
03:19.22 | Thrae|Work | The US -- the leader in spreading democracy around the World, despite the fact we're not a democracy. |
03:19.28 | TecnoBrat | LOL |

03:21.34 | TecnoBrat | Would they have said Iraq? |
03:21.45 | TecnoBrat | Would they of said Iraq had WMD? |
03:21.57 | TecnoBrat | actually, infact they said they didn't have either |
03:22.01 | TecnoBrat | *boggle* |
03:22.22 | bleeter | TecnoBrat: they were asked, they said Afghanistan. Further, they said that if the US invaded Iraq, it'd bring the terrorists to Iraq and more than likely put Iraq's bioweapons experts into the hands of the terrorists |
03:22.45 | TecnoBrat | bleeter, heh, exactly. |
03:23.04 | Thrae|Work | The excuse used by the administration for going into Iraq was the word of a taxi cab driver in Germany. |
03:23.22 | TecnoBrat | Thrae|Work, oh I gotta hear this one. |
03:23.23 | bleeter | Thrae|Work: but but but... HE DROVE A MERC!!! |
03:23.53 | TecnoBrat | bleeter, the UN still says they are in Afganistan :P |
03:23.53 | Thrae|Work | Whom the German Intelligence (?!) Agency told the CIA that he wasn't credible, and the CIA told the administration what the Germans told them. |
03:24.00 | bleeter | (well, I'm guessing that... based on my personal experience that every taxi in .de seemed to be a merc) |
03:24.24 | Thrae|Work | TechnoBrat: Some guy made a book on the guy. |
03:24.25 | bleeter | Thrae|Work: not to forget the UK bioweapons expert who (may have) taken his own life |
03:24.48 | TecnoBrat | Thrae|Work, haha |
03:25.20 | Thrae|Work | Worse yet, no one knows who the guy really is. I don't think the German Intelligence Agency was able to find out his real name. He just kinda disappeared after saying that Iraq has bioweapons. |

03:39.36 | Thrae|Work | I didn't say a cause of a World War couldn't be attributed to something else, I said for a World War to really be a World War, it needs major players. |
03:39.39 | ckknight | it arguably has to do with terrorism, granted, I'm appalled at the first 5 years of the Iraq war. I think it was a tragedy |
03:40.33 | Thrae|Work | We can't leave Iraq until it's stable, and Iraq won't be stable until we leave. |
03:40.44 | ckknight | I disagree with that statement |
03:40.51 | ckknight | particularly the latter part |
03:41.01 | bleeter | Thrae|Work: name me one major country atm that isn't involved in 'the war on terrorism' to some degree |

03:42.14 | ckknight | on a lighter note, Romney won Michigan |
03:42.23 | bleeter | Thrae|Work: that's a far more accurate statement, even if 'various sectarians' get lumped together as 'those pesky terrorists' ;) |
03:42.41 | bleeter | ckknight: mid-east war's been going on for centuries before the US became a republic ;) |
03:43.00 | ckknight | bleeter: since around 650 AD, if I have my numbers straight |
03:43.07 | ckknight | :-P |
03:44.08 | Thrae|Work | ckknight: Well, "stability" is a relative term. As long as the US Soldiers are in Iraq, part of Iraq's stability will depend, at least in some tiny part, on the soldiers. |
03:44.10 | bleeter | hah, according to Wikipedia, 'Cold War' was first used to describe the existance of Islam and Christianity in Spain in 13th century |
03:44.22 | ckknight | Thrae|Work: absolutely no rebuttal to that statement |
03:44.25 | bleeter | as in, the phrase was used in the 13th century |
03:44.39 | ckknight | bleeter: hehe, yea, lousy Moors. |
03:45.29 | Thrae|Work | ckknight: But the soldiers also cause instability due to the hatred of the American occupation by groups that would rather see their country without ties to the US. |

03:46.52 | ckknight | this is an issue? |
03:47.10 | bleeter | the thing that really gets me, is that one of Bin-Laden's stated aims was to get US forces out of holy lands... hence the logical reaction to 9/11 was to invade other holy lands *boggle* |

03:48.33 | TecnoBrat | Especially reading the paragraph containing Moderates within the Taliban allegedly met with American embassy officials in Pakistan in mid-October to work out a way to convince Mullah Muhammed Omar to turn bin Laden over to the U.S. and avoid its impending retaliation. President Bush rejected these offers made by the Taliban as insincere. |
03:49.25 | bleeter | ckknight: I doubt the US secret services would allow publication of information if he'd been successful. it's not as if the US hasn't suppressed info in the past to spread FUD amongst it's enemies (eg, the Japanese bombing of continental US in WW2) |
03:50.20 | kd3 | ok, shifting gears for a second. any wine users know of a way of bind()ing wine to a specific IP address were I to have multiple NICs? |
03:50.39 | Thrae|Work | I'd say keeping the Taliban out of Afganistan is a higher priority then finding some old, dying Muslim radical. Bin Laden is just a trophy compared to the force of the Taliban on the Middle East and Asia. |
03:51.25 | bleeter | the concept of Taliban as an organised group spreading around amongst various countries is largely a western media invention |
03:51.54 | MentalPower | bleeter: but they did bomb continental US |
03:52.00 | MentalPower | with incendiary bombs IIRC |
03:52.06 | bleeter | it's more like a buncha crazies who share a bunch of similar crazy ideals, but are so crazy they don't want to join forces |
03:52.09 | Thrae|Work | I never said they were an organized group. Neither is Al'Queda. |
03:52.28 | bleeter | MentalPower: the Japanese? yeah, they did. but news reports of it were banned for a time. |
03:53.04 | MentalPower | oh, gotcha |
03:53.50 | Thrae|Work | A bunch of crazies that can take over a country is worse then a bunch of crazies that can bomb places every now and then. |
03:54.16 | bleeter | indeed |
03:54.28 | TecnoBrat | "bunch of crazies" you make it sound like they are stupid |
03:54.30 | bleeter | hence, a lot of world hatred towards the US and desire to get rid of your leaders :P |
03:54.32 | Thrae|Work | Hence why the Taliban can be a higher priority then Al'Queda. |
03:54.38 | TecnoBrat | They aren't stupid, or crazy. At least in their eyes |
03:54.44 | TecnoBrat | and thats what makes them so dangerous |
03:55.05 | TecnoBrat | They completely know what they are doing. |
03:55.10 | bleeter | Thrae|Work: very very very few crazy people realise their crazy... terrorist or otherwise |
03:55.14 | bleeter | *they're |
03:55.16 | Thrae|Work | TecnoBrat: I'd say they are stupid and crazy. I'd say some of the leaders in the US are stupid and crazy. |
03:55.23 | bleeter | bah, was meant for TecnoBrat |
03:55.31 | bleeter | kd3: thinking, haven't forgotten your question ;) |
03:55.44 | TecnoBrat | Thrae|Work, ahh well, that might be true if you are classifying it that way |
03:56.06 | Thrae|Work | TecnoBrat: Most people who are crazy don't think they are crazy. That's part of what makes them crazy, as circular as that sounds. |

03:56.22 | Thrae|Work | TecnoBrat: It's called delusion. |
03:57.15 | TecnoBrat | Thrae|Work, while I would agree with that statement, I don't think they are crazy. Their means and their motives might be. But we are not talking about people who need to be put into institutions here. We are talking about dangerous people who have the wrong motives and beliefs. |
03:57.27 | Thrae|Work | Of course, not all terrorists are crazy. Some are just unfortunate, brought up in a secluded world where suicide bombing is proper. |
03:58.30 | Thrae|Work | TecnoBrat: The terrorists that are brainwashed by people or the limitations of their society are not crazy. The leaders of the terrorists, who have access to much wider information, are both crazy and stupid. |
03:58.34 | bleeter | kd3: sorry, drawing a blank here |
03:58.38 | kd3 | all hail the power of subverted religion |
03:58.43 | TecnoBrat | They believe that they are correct, and that they will do whatever it takes to prove it. |
03:58.47 | kd3 | bleeter, no worries |
03:59.13 | Thrae|Work | TecnoBrat: That doesn't mean the leaders aren't crazy. Most crazy people are pretty darn determined. |
03:59.23 | Thrae|Work | And stupid people can also be pretty darn stubborn. |
04:00.01 | TecnoBrat | LOL I just remembered something |
04:00.09 | TecnoBrat | remember the cards of iraq? |
04:00.31 | TecnoBrat | where the media .. or the US .. or whoever did it .. named each of the leaders of iraq as playing cards? |
04:00.42 | MentalPower | US Military |
04:00.56 | MentalPower | the US Military distributed those cards to its troops |
04:01.21 | MentalPower | so that they would recognize the people in them if they ever encountered them in combat |
04:01.23 | TecnoBrat | really? I didn't know that it was anything more than a media stunt |
04:01.26 | art3mis | i wouldnt say they're stupid |
04:01.39 | art3mis | the leaders of such sects are insanely charismatic and brilliant |
04:01.42 | Fin | didn't the FBI do something similar before them, with the top 10 most wanted? |
04:01.54 | art3mis | but the downside is that in some cases they're also incredible zealots |

04:02.34 | bleeter | cogwheel: why does Zootfizzle hate on you so much? a great deal of objects tend to be where I have the problem. I do |
04:02.38 | Cairenn | thanks MentalPower |
04:02.43 | bleeter | bah, bad paste.... hang on |
04:02.58 | MentalPower | bleeter: I was about to question your sanity... |
04:03.01 | cogwheel | bleeter: rofl |
04:03.01 | kd3 | heh, was about to ask where that came from |
04:03.05 | cogwheel | he's on the sprocket's side |
04:03.06 | Thrae|Work | art3mis: Cleverness, wit, and charisma can be augmented by intelligence, but are not parts of it. |
04:03.12 | cogwheel | Mr. Cogswell was my great uncle |
04:03.14 | bleeter | cogwheel: why does Zootfizzle hate on you? http://www.wowwiki.com/Zootfizzle << 2nd half of last sentence |
04:03.31 | Thrae|Work | There are plenty of Charismatic stupid people. Take a look at my country's president. |
04:03.40 | art3mis | trae: to a degree yes, take charlie for instance, he was all things and quite brilliant in the workings of the mind, however.. it's totally insnae |
04:03.45 | Fin | I'd rather not |
04:03.54 | Fin | and personally I don't classify him as charismatic |
04:04.27 | cogwheel | (google the jetsons if you don't know wtf i'm talking about :P ) |
04:04.32 | art3mis | also take hilter himmler and goerbels,, alll quite zealoty and insane bynormal standards, but also incredibly brilliant |
04:04.43 | Thrae|Work | Fin: You're not American. And he was a hell of a lot more charismatic back around 9/11. |
04:04.46 | art3mis | charlie is quite charismatic |
04:05.13 | art3mis | anyone that can convince a bunch of people that he's the messiah and to kill in his name..... |
04:05.14 | Fin | hey I might leave the channel for a bit until this conversation's over, I really really fucking hate politics down to my core and the subject does nothing but frustrate me and make me angry |
04:05.32 | Fin | it's all just so fucked |
04:05.44 | art3mis | it's not really politics fin |
04:05.49 | Thrae|Work | Problem was, while Bush didn't have much Charisma, his opponents had NONE. And the Presidency had long since been determined greatly by charisma, ever since the invention of television. |
04:05.50 | Fin | OK |
04:05.53 | art3mis | it's the murkiness of religion in that same field |
04:06.16 | cogwheel | bleeter: see zoot's sig on the forums |
04:06.23 | Thrae|Work | Although I am glad for the invention of television to give us JFK instead of Nixon right off the bat. |
04:06.28 | art3mis | but to be fair you get that from any goup thats willig to blindly acept things as they are told to them |
04:06.43 | Fin | religion is more interesting because you come across people actually trying to do good things more often, despite it all coming down to power and control etc. like politics |
04:06.44 | art3mis | ya know i like nixon |
04:06.57 | art3mis | i blame futurama for that though |
04:07.39 | Fin | it's just... life shouldn't *be* this way, people shouldn't be killed in wars, they're just so POINTLESS I mean jesus arg! |
04:07.48 | cogwheel | ~lart3mis |
04:07.48 | purl | ACTION smacks art3mis upside the head just cuz |
04:07.50 | cogwheel | (don't know why... just seemed appropriate) |
04:07.59 | art3mis | heh |
04:08.16 | Fin | right, so |
04:08.24 | art3mis | does my voice really sound like that? i always thought it had more of a clark gable tone |
04:08.36 | Fin | what's your favourite ice cream flavour |
04:08.41 | art3mis | pistachio |
04:08.49 | Fin | mine, I'd have to say either chocolate or strawberry, plain |
04:08.53 | Thrae|Work | Dogma said it best -- "Belief and faith are good. People took a good idea and turned it into a belief system." |
04:08.58 | art3mis | so you like neopolitan? |
04:09.01 | Fin | pistachio used to be my favourite, but I've developed an annoying allergy to nuts |
04:09.13 | Fin | nono |
04:09.18 | Fin | I *don't* like mixed ice creams |
04:09.21 | Fin | they always disappoint |
04:09.36 | kd3 | straight chocolate <3 |
04:09.48 | Fin | you can't blend the flavours together properly without it melting a bit, which defeats the point of the ice cream to me |
04:10.05 | Fin | it's got to be good quality plain strawberry or chocolate, though |
04:10.09 | Fin | like, some italian stuff |
04:10.45 | art3mis | you know how to make ice cream soup?! |
04:11.02 | Tain | Can anyone suggest any good PVP guides? BGs and arena type stuff for someone who's never set foot in a BG, ever? |
04:11.22 | Thrae|Work | Wowwiki? |
04:11.32 | Thrae|Work | Also, looking at your class's forums is always a good idea. |
04:11.35 | Fin | ice cream... soup? |
04:11.53 | Tain | Class forums are a bit too much to wade through for any class. |
04:12.02 | Fin | they generally have good stickies, though |
04:12.15 | Thrae|Work | Yeah I'm thinking of the stickies. |
04:12.16 | art3mis | tain: shoot kill and don't die |
04:12.30 | Tain | Ok let's get more basic. |
04:12.36 | Tain | I wouldn't know how to set foot in a BG. |
04:12.52 | Fin | more basic than that is, the manual on worldofwarcraft.com |
04:13.04 | NightHawkTheSane | Tain: ... go to a guard. ask for the battle master. go to the battle master. talk to him |
04:13.13 | Tain | I don't know where to join the Arena, how to join as a group, etc. |
04:13.21 | Fin | http://www.worldofwarcraft.com/info/#pvp |
04:13.39 | Fin | that'll give you an overview of the basics |
04:14.03 | Tain | I'll look there, thanks. |
04:21.32 | kd3 | the hell? http://arstechnica.com/news.ars/post/20080115-amazons-free-shipping-costing-1000-per-day-in-france.html |
04:23.31 | bleeter | Tain: yeah, generally what other folks have said here... WoWWiki's pages on the various BG's and Arenas, Class Forum stickies and the WoW.com general PvP/BG/Arena pages. There's not much more to know than those combined. You'll be busy enough getting your bearings for the first day or so, so don't worry too much on being an expert on strategy to start with. |
04:23.53 | Fin | mais ouis, c'est les francais, ils sont crazy non |
04:24.35 | bleeter | Tu as déjà une petite tête, pourquoi veux-tu du riz? |

04:28.39 | bleeter | NightHawkTheSane: it's not simple, but I like it... cosmosui.org's NotesUNeed |
04:28.56 | Fin | that is the polar opposite of simple |
04:29.22 | bleeter | well, depends what kind of simple NightHawkTheSane meant |
04:29.36 | bleeter | simple as in 'easy to use' or simple as in 'very few lines of code' |
04:29.37 | Thrae|Work | What's an insanely complex, bloated, probably unstable Unit Frame that I can use? |
04:29.55 | Thrae|Work | Knowing NightHawkTheSane, he meant a little of both. |
04:29.57 | NightHawkTheSane | i meant "does what i said in clean, straightforward way, thats easy to use, and doesn't do any thing else" |
04:30.16 | NightHawkTheSane | and yeah, Thrae|Work's right :P |
04:30.22 | art3mis | pourquoi est cela que vous avez <-- fav french phrase |
04:30.38 | art3mis | it just rollsoff the tongue and has no real meaning ;P |
04:30.47 | Fin | magnifique! <-- my favourite french phrase |
04:31.02 | bleeter | NightHawkTheSane: I'm using NotesUNeed to record guild member's details including gear. Now, whether you consider a note recording folk's gear as part of simple, or complex, I cannot say. |

04:35.20 | Fin | only food fight I've been in that was stopped by the police |
04:36.29 | bleeter | We almost started a food fight on the border of Northern Ireland and the Republic. I was at a bucks party for a work colleague, and he had a bunch of his friends over from the continent. They were calling us Aussies 'Skippy', and the local youfs were of the opinion they were insulting us. |
04:36.33 | Fin | but! back to the cute french girl - yeah! if it wasn't harry potter, and that wasn't desperately sad, I would say that the description of the alluring sultry beauties with the french accents sounds like a goer |
04:36.56 | bleeter | we found out the following morning one of the kids who were threatening us got arrested later for attempted murder :/ |
04:37.02 | Fin | how do you almost have a food fight? :) did someone throw some rice but noone retaliated? |
04:37.21 | Fin | the irish are always doing that |
04:37.42 | Fin | (not almost starting food fights, I meant getting arrested for attempted murder) |
04:38.03 | Fin | it's true! I read about it on the internet |
04:38.59 | bleeter | Fin: it was a burger, but yes. We didn't retaliate, just calmly said 'no no, we're all friends up here for a bucks night, we don't want trouble'... and left |
04:40.03 | Thrae|Work | Fin: http://bash.org/?838069 |

04:42.21 | Fin | adieu! |

04:44.18 | art3mis | im gonna guess unintentional |
04:44.23 | art3mis | it was Fin after all |
04:44.57 | art3mis | What's the difference between a protestant and a catholic in ireland? |
04:45.05 | art3mis | The Calibre |

04:56.23 | Fin | Thrae: however art3mis was right, it was entirely unintentional |
04:56.55 | art3mis | ckknight: we dont ahve chicken and we didnt expect such a rush on the cake |

05:07.05 | Fin | I don't want to even guess what they've done to lock down BitTorrent etc... ah yeah |
05:07.08 | Mr_Rabies2 | i was wondering why you were using tor |
05:07.29 | kd3 | what's funny is that when they first brought the filters online they didn't even touch DCC, just irc chat itself... |
05:07.47 | Fin | I was going to say, how can these people even be intelligent enough to implement the filters in the first place |
05:07.48 | Mr_Rabies2 | but i thought you might be a part of the chinese resistance forming on tor |
05:08.13 | Fin | my god, you'r chinese, Mr_Rabies? |
05:08.17 | Fin | +e |
05:08.19 | kd3 | I dunno, I'm assuming they're using sandvine or something similar |
05:08.23 | Mr_Rabies2 | no, i just check out tor |
05:08.27 | art3mis | kd3: does it block all irc ports or just 6667? |
05:08.29 | MentalPower | kd3: do they not know that most (all?) P2P does not work over HTTP/S |
05:08.33 | Mr_Rabies2 | it has some funny paranoid hidden services |
05:08.36 | art3mis | err not block but you know |
05:08.40 | Fin | you're not just a bit Chinese then |
05:08.42 | Mr_Rabies2 | but some really cool ones, like chinese resistance |
05:09.00 | Mr_Rabies2 | trying to overthrow communism by letting information flow freely |
05:09.03 | kd3 | all ports. some private networks I'm on use non-standard ports too and they're filtered just the same |
05:09.03 | Mr_Rabies2 | or whatever |
05:09.07 | Mr_Rabies2 | their dictatorship |
05:09.22 | Mr_Rabies2 | getting past the great firewall |
05:09.23 | MentalPower | so they do packet shaping, nice |
05:10.30 | Fin | you need a decent unix box outside that network that can act as a generic proxy |
05:11.56 | Fin | set up ssh tunnels to a server that has listens on port 8080, configure local setups for different services, and it's just like the real internet |
05:12.20 | Fin | or on port 80 I guess for you, 8080 seems a bit - woo - nonstandard |
05:13.25 | Codayus | A sufficiently paranoid IT department (or whatever) can monitor and track encrypted ssh tunnels, even over port 80. |
05:13.57 | kd3 | meh, the ISP's not that good. IRC over SSL's just fine. 0.1s lag on a few networks says xchat |
05:14.11 | Codayus | Since a ssh tunnel doesn't "look" like normal http traffic, if you bother to look at it. Few do. |
05:14.30 | Fin | they can't tell what you're doing though, and they'd find it difficult to stop without specific measures against you personally or implementing a network wide proxy |
05:14.39 | Fin | +that has Connect disabled |

05:14.54 | Fin | well no |
05:14.57 | Mr_Rabies2 | or just hope you luck out with tor |
05:15.02 | Mr_Rabies2 | and get a decent line of proxies |
05:15.28 | Fin | so anyway, what's happening on Tuesday? |
05:15.39 | Fin | are you ridding yourself of this blight upon the good name of sysadmins everywhere? |
05:15.58 | Codayus | Fin: Some banks, for example, will have IT departments which will look for people tunneling encrypted traffic across the firewall, and take specific measures...like firing you. |
05:16.10 | kd3 | that's when the cableco has graciously decided to free up enough time to make sure that my apartment has been wired properly for cable net access |
05:16.19 | Fin | Codayus: a bank is one place I would take network security seriously :) |

05:16.56 | Fin | there, and my home network, are the only two places that come to mind |
05:17.13 | Fin | anyway! enough geekery |
05:17.17 | Mr_Rabies2 | i'm drinking ginger ale from a jar that once contained apples. |
05:17.29 | Codayus | Although once you go down that road, you start needing to worry about cell phones, 3G modems, bluetooth, etc. Or hell, flash drives. Security is a PAIN if you really care. |
05:17.37 | Fin | I'm off to watch some explosions and hot chicks |
05:17.37 | Thunder_Child | there is never enough geekery Fin |
05:17.43 | MentalPower | Mr_Rabies2: thats... random... |
05:17.58 | Mr_Rabies2 | it's true though |
05:17.59 | Mr_Rabies2 | i am |
05:18.19 | Fin | explosions! chicks! beer! |
05:18.33 | Codayus | Exploding chickens? That's not hot... |
05:18.50 | MentalPower | gnight all |
05:18.55 | Fin | well I imagine they would be quite hot having just exploded |
05:19.04 | Shirik | "The female vocal box emits a tone that is phase shifted 180 degrees from the male ear drum's natural resonance frequency, so males simply can't listen to females. It's in their genes." |
05:19.08 | Shirik | <3 my guild chat |
05:19.11 | Fin | granted they would cool quite rapidly |
05:19.24 | Mr_Rabies2 | http://mwpolar.com/nutrition/jar_apples_nf.html |
05:19.27 | Mr_Rabies2 | see |
05:19.28 | Mr_Rabies2 | :o |
05:19.37 | Codayus | Well, depends on the environmental temperature...explode one inside a blast furnace? |
05:19.39 | Fin | now that they have a greater surface area through which to dissipate the heat |
05:20.09 | Fin | I was thinking like, a mortar fired directly into a chicken coop |
05:20.29 | Codayus | Could fire the chicken from the mortar... |
05:20.31 | Fin | +that had some chickens in it |
05:20.42 | Fin | would that necessarily cause them to explode, though? |
05:20.47 | Mr_Rabies2 | reminds me of the chicken cannon from mythbusters |
05:20.57 | Codayus | ...do you suppose a chicken would have more or less wind resistence after its been plucked? |
05:21.03 | Fin | less |
05:21.18 | Codayus | Seems plausible. |
05:21.23 | Fin | that's what feathers are *for* |
05:21.26 | Mr_Rabies2 | brb calling adam and jamie |
05:21.40 | Codayus | Pft, explain bats. |
05:21.45 | Mr_Rabies2 | it'll be on mythbusters within the month |
05:21.46 | Fin | OK! I am going to watch I Am Legend now |
05:21.58 | Mr_Rabies2 | Fin: Will Smith is a Scientologist now |
05:21.59 | Mr_Rabies2 | :( |
05:22.00 | Codayus | .... |
05:22.03 | Fin | oh FUCK |
05:22.04 | Codayus | <PROTECTED> |
05:22.06 | Fin | I wish you hadn't told me that |
05:22.13 | Fin | tch |
05:22.23 | Mr_Rabies2 | still a good movie |
05:22.30 | Fin | not *as* good anymore :( |

05:22.51 | Fin | auf wiedersen! |
05:22.51 | Codayus | Could be worse, wasisname, the guy who started in Blade is on trial for not paying taxes. I believe his claim is that there is no income tax in the US. |
05:22.54 | Mr_Rabies2 | my opinion was worse of him before the movie |
05:23.02 | Mr_Rabies2 | because i had no respect for him as an actor prior to the movie |
05:23.02 | Codayus | Wesley...Snipe? Something like that... |
05:23.12 | Mr_Rabies2 | he did a pretty damn good job in i am legend :o |
05:27.57 | Mr_Rabies2 | hrm |
05:28.02 | Mr_Rabies2 | speaking of scientology |
05:28.06 | Mr_Rabies2 | this kinda creeps me out |
05:28.09 | Mr_Rabies2 | http://www.cnn.com/2006/SHOWBIZ/11/16/insider.scientology/index.html?iref=newssearch |
05:28.17 | Mr_Rabies2 | i searched for scientology on cnn |
05:28.19 | Mr_Rabies2 | and got that |
05:28.38 | Shirik | X |
05:28.42 | Mr_Rabies2 | it looks like an article was cut down by scientology's legal department or something worse :O |
05:35.08 | Thunder_Child | who the fuck cares what belief system has |
05:35.16 | Thunder_Child | s/has/someone has/ |
05:35.28 | Thunder_Child | besides Fin it seems |
05:35.42 | ckknight | I'm not fond of the Church of Scientology |
05:35.48 | ckknight | but I don't care if someone believes in it |
05:36.16 | Fin | they're fucking psychopathic nutjobs on a mission to assimilate humanity, not a belief system |
05:36.17 | Thunder_Child | i hope Fin's thought isnt the majority |
05:36.26 | Thunder_Child | that would be sadening |
05:36.40 | Fin | hah, dude, you're not actually trolling now, are you? |
05:36.44 | Thunder_Child | nope |
05:36.47 | Fin | awesome |
05:37.17 | Thunder_Child | i actually think that a person belief does not make them a bad person |
05:37.24 | Fin | so do I |
05:37.42 | Thunder_Child | so you were joking with your comment before> |
05:37.43 | Fin | but you're choosing to at least appear to convince yourself of something else |
05:37.44 | Thunder_Child | ?* |
05:37.49 | Fin | no |
05:38.03 | Thunder_Child | then your contradicting yourself |
05:38.07 | Fin | no, I'm not |
05:38.34 | Thunder_Child | will smith is not bad because of his belief but the movie is beacause he is in it |
05:38.46 | Thunder_Child | because of scientology |
05:38.53 | cogwheel | so, using expose armor on a turtle... that's like ripping its shell off, yes? |
05:39.00 | Fin | ew |
05:39.06 | Shirik | no, just showing the weak spot on its shell |
05:39.34 | Fin | no, Thunder_Child, that is also incorrect |
05:39.47 | Fin | keep going if you like? |
05:40.08 | Fin | we could talk about ice cream again |
05:40.09 | Shirik | no you didn't |
05:40.20 | Fin | let's talk about ice cream |
05:40.22 | Thunder_Child | dont need to keep going, one of those 2 are incorrect |
05:40.25 | Fin | you know what I think would be great? vodka ice cream |
05:40.38 | Shirik | except I couldn't eat it |
05:40.43 | Fin | I'll let you figure it out mate. what's your favourite flavour of ice cream? |
05:40.45 | Thunder_Child | lightweight? |
05:40.48 | Shirik | for another.... 5 days |
05:40.58 | Fin | it might not be ice cream by then |
05:41.03 | kd3 | oh sweet. ep2 of aria season 3's finally done downloading. wtb subs |
05:41.05 | cogwheel | ice cream is fricking awesome with liquor... it's like built-in pepto bismol :P |
05:41.08 | Shirik | 4 actually, omg it's wednesday >< |
05:41.17 | Shirik | I need to go to sleep, night :) |
05:41.22 | Fin | excellent description cogwheel |
05:42.06 | Fin | so, Thunder_Child, don't keep us waiting! |
05:42.10 | Fin | I bet you're a mint choc chip man |
05:42.17 | Thunder_Child | actaully i am |
05:42.22 | Fin | bam! nailed it |
05:42.23 | Thunder_Child | but thats 1 or 2 |
05:42.33 | Fin | aw, I think that can be considered a flavour |
05:42.41 | Thunder_Child | depends, otherwise it's choc chip cookie dough |
05:42.43 | cogwheel | cookie dough here |
05:42.59 | cogwheel | and white chocolate > vanilla imo |
05:43.06 | Fin | cookie dough... I can't say that's something I see very often, I don't know what it tastes like |
05:43.13 | Thunder_Child | Fin, i meant it's either #1 or #2 on my list |
05:43.19 | Fin | aha |
05:43.24 | cogwheel | it's vanilla with chunks of cookie dough |
05:43.39 | Fin | well that's OK, you're allowed to have multiple favourite flavours of ice cream |
05:43.39 | cogwheel | chocolate chip usually |
05:43.47 | Fin | ice cream is special |
05:43.50 | Fin | I can't imagine that, cogwheel |
05:44.03 | Fin | like, crumbly cookies? |
05:44.15 | cogwheel | they're usually little balls of raw dough |
05:44.21 | Fin | maybe I'll buy some and freeze them to see what it's like |
05:44.24 | cogwheel | not sure if they're allowed to put eggs in or not |
05:44.26 | Fin | ohhhh... like tiramisu sort of |
05:45.19 | cogwheel | every tiramisu i have has been completely different from the one before it so i can't verify that :P |
05:45.30 | Fin | I think I'd like to explore the world of alcohol + ice cream, though |
05:45.34 | cogwheel | +any missing words that make it make more sense |
05:45.44 | Fin | I just made it up as a way to change the subject earlier, but it's growing on me |
05:45.57 | cogwheel | really any sort of creaminess and cold makes it go down smooth |
05:46.07 | Fin | baileys |
05:46.14 | cogwheel | egg nog & brandy |
05:46.16 | Fin | oh lordy lummy loo, baileys I do love you so |
05:46.27 | Fin | egg nog is like, a really cheap liquor here, it's seen as sort of tacky |
05:46.40 | Fin | but I secretly buy bottles of it for myself because I love it |
05:46.42 | cogwheel | it's sort of a traditional holiday drink here |
05:47.28 | cogwheel | We missed out this year :( |
05:47.32 | Fin | one sweet alcohol I *don't* really like, anything menthol really |
05:47.37 | Fin | aw no, that's a shame |
05:47.49 | Wobwork | <3 Tiramisu |
05:47.52 | Wobwork | it's so easy to make |
05:48.10 | Wobwork | also <3 Sticky Date Pudding |
05:48.17 | Wobwork | ditto on the easy to make |
05:48.19 | Fin | that's not really one sweet alcohol, but there's enough meaning in the sentence to extrapolate what it would've been like coherent |
05:48.51 | Fin | also! I don't understand the smarties ice cream that mcdonalds do |
05:49.12 | Fin | that's just odd to me |
05:49.28 | Fin | they're completely seperate sweets in the hierarchy, really |
05:49.53 | Fin | hmm, I'm assuming smarties are smarties everywhere |
05:49.59 | Wobwork | It's true |
05:50.16 | Wobwork | then again, McDonalds soft serve ice cream is an abomination unto man anyway |
05:50.23 | Fin | smarties are little pellets of chocolate coated in a layer of coloured sugar |
05:50.53 | Fin | they're actually called "lentilky" in the Czech Republic |
05:50.56 | Fin | which I find amusing |
05:51.05 | Wobwork | what does that translate to? |
05:51.09 | Fin | lentils |
05:51.29 | Wobwork | most bizarre lentils ever |
05:51.57 | Fin | although actually now I come to think about it, I'm not 100% sure of that! they might've just taken the English word for lentils and used it for something that resembles lentils, sort of, or something |
05:52.14 | Fin | I never thought of that possibility before |
05:52.25 | Fin | Czechs go out of their way to be awkward sometimes, I swear it |
05:52.44 | Fin | I mean, the Czech keyboard layout is mostly the same for letters - except the z and the y are swapped rond |
05:52.47 | Fin | +u |
05:53.00 | Fin | why? why just swap those letters? you're just being awkward now |
05:53.09 | Mr_Rabies2 | <Thunder_Child> i actually think that a person belief does not make them a bad person |
05:53.29 | Thunder_Child | yes, infact i did type that |
05:53.35 | Mr_Rabies2 | i have little or no issue with people who believe in scientology, |
05:53.47 | Fin | I don't think he was challenging your typing that, Thunder_Child |
05:53.53 | Mr_Rabies2 | however, i do have several issues with the actual "Church" of scientology |
05:54.13 | Thunder_Child | i hope not Fin, people typing that badly around here hsould be few and far between |
05:54.25 | Thunder_Child | Mr_Rabies2, thats fine, i wasnt talking about that |
05:54.27 | Fin | heh |
05:54.30 | Mr_Rabies2 | leaving vulnerable people in crippling debt, huge legal team that quells any opposition to them, etc etc |
05:54.45 | Thunder_Child | Mr_Rabies2, i was not debating belief systems |
05:54.59 | Thunder_Child | if you want to flame them (as i can see you want to) go ahead |
05:55.00 | Fin | plus they're annoying as almighty fuck with those bloody personality tests |
05:55.06 | Thunder_Child | but i have nothing to do with it |
05:55.18 | Fin | that's a big fat lie |
05:55.23 | Thunder_Child | and dont use me as an excuse to flame them |
05:55.28 | Fin | your pants are currently combusting |
05:55.36 | Mr_Rabies2 | i'm not flaming you at all, i'm just stating why i (and many people) dislike scientology |
05:55.52 | Fin | sensible |
05:55.54 | Thunder_Child | Mr_Rabies2, not me, i didnt say you were flaming me |
05:56.24 | *** join/#wowi-lounge Kirkburn (i=Kirkburn@c-67-167-101-23.hsd1.il.comcast.net) |
05:56.30 | Mr_Rabies2 | it's not about the beliefs, it's the shady things the church does, that rival those of catholicism around the time indulgences and the crusades were popular :o |
05:57.05 | Mr_Rabies2 | the fact that they leave all but the very very wealthy with no money with promises of bettering their lives |
05:57.17 | Fin | OK, as you seem to be being reasonable now, can I say: I have an issue with scientology; I don't have an issue with belief systems in general; I don't consider scientology a belief system; my enjoyment of a film is partly linked to my respect for the people involved in it, and my respect for Wil Smith is now a lot lower |
05:57.28 | Mr_Rabies2 | and they use the local police force to their HQ as their own personal police force |
05:57.35 | Mr_Rabies2 | mine was very low before i am legend, fin |
05:57.45 | Mr_Rabies2 | after i had a renewed respect for him |
05:58.04 | Fin | so, that's why all the things you said weren't correct |
05:58.14 | Mr_Rabies2 | his acting is quite believable and well done |
05:58.31 | Fin | actually I never thought he was that bad, Mr_Rabies, perhaps I just have lower standards than you |
05:58.39 | Mr_Rabies2 | i like him as a person, he's a great guy |
05:58.39 | Fin | in fact I almost certainly have lower standards than you |
05:58.46 | Fin | although they are very refined low standards |
05:58.55 | Mr_Rabies2 | it was hard for me to get past fresh prince of bel air |
05:59.06 | Fin | ah, I was fortunate to skip that |
05:59.08 | Fin | almost completely |
05:59.09 | Mr_Rabies2 | and it doesn't help most of the movies he's been in since have been awful |
05:59.26 | Mr_Rabies2 | fresh prince is enjoyable, but not for the fantastic acting |
05:59.32 | Fin | yep, I definitely have lower standards - I only think some of his movies are awful, not most |
06:00.04 | Fin | seriously though, you didn't like Wild Wild West? and Men In Black? |
06:00.17 | Mr_Rabies2 | i robot was terrible, independence day is good for laughing at a nice campy movie, hitch was terrible |
06:00.28 | Fin | I liked Hitch |
06:00.35 | Mr_Rabies2 | wild wild west was okay, but only because it was hollywood steampunk, otherwise the acting was laughable |
06:00.38 | Fin | the name was a great play on words, I liked that |
06:00.47 | Mr_Rabies2 | men in black was okay when i was like 10 |
06:00.52 | Fin | I think you're being unreasonably harsh |
06:00.55 | Mr_Rabies2 | i can't watch it now, it's too cheesy |
06:01.10 | Mr_Rabies2 | bad boys ii is a pinnacle of action movies, though |
06:01.19 | Fin | hmm... you're not one of those people that watches Marcel Rousseau type movies, are ou? |
06:01.22 | Mr_Rabies2 | again, not because of the acting, though |
06:01.25 | Fin | +y |
06:01.33 | Mr_Rabies2 | nah, not a big arthouse guy, if that's what Marcel Rousseau is |
06:01.40 | Fin | action movies are rarely good because of the acting |
06:01.53 | Fin | arty would be a good word |
06:02.03 | Fin | OK then, tell me what you *do* like, forget about Mr. Smith |
06:02.34 | Fin | and - btw - I'm not saying any of his films are *great* - just OK, watchable |
06:02.34 | Mr_Rabies2 | yeah, i didn't expect good acting from bad boys 2, and i got what i expected, plus michael bay making it hilariously awesome |
06:02.38 | Fin | not bad |
06:02.57 | Mr_Rabies2 | well, men in black i and ii were seen a lot when i was a kid, so there's a good chance i just kinda got burned out on them |
06:03.16 | Mr_Rabies2 | i feel he was probably typecast pretty heavily |
06:03.28 | Mr_Rabies2 | i mean even in i am legend he has to have a bit of a comedy side to him |
06:03.36 | Fin | so forget about him, go on tell me what's in your DVD library |
06:03.44 | Mr_Rabies2 | lots of bad movies i love |
06:03.47 | Mr_Rabies2 | like the running man |
06:03.53 | Mr_Rabies2 | terrible movie, but it's awesome |
06:04.16 | Fin | what was the last movie you bought? |
06:04.20 | Mr_Rabies2 | my dvd library is admittedly miniscule, i mostly watch stuff in theaters |
06:04.25 | Fin | no, what were the last three movies you bought? |
06:04.39 | Mr_Rabies2 | Shoot Em Up, 3:10 to Yuma and Tenacious D |
06:04.50 | Mr_Rabies2 | shoot em up is another pinnacle of modern action movies |
06:05.10 | Mr_Rabies2 | 3:10 to yuma i haven't seen yet as i accidentally got the fullscreen version and i'm waiting to take it back |
06:05.10 | Fin | not sure I agree, but I haven't formed a proper opinion yet |
06:05.21 | Fin | never heard of it |
06:05.25 | Fin | sounds japanese and arty |
06:05.28 | Mr_Rabies2 | nah |
06:05.30 | Mr_Rabies2 | it's a western |
06:05.34 | Mr_Rabies2 | a remake, actually |
06:05.35 | Fin | ooh! |
06:05.39 | Fin | nice |
06:05.52 | Mr_Rabies2 | and not an "el topo" western |
06:06.00 | Mr_Rabies2 | el topo isn't a western |
06:06.11 | Mr_Rabies2 | it's a western-coated mindfuck |
06:06.27 | Mr_Rabies2 | http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/3:10_to_Yuma_%282007_film%29 |
06:06.29 | Mr_Rabies2 | there ya go, fin |
06:06.47 | Fin | just a good old classic fight against evil with a few good men eventually coming through for the common man, whose daughter is incidentally a hot but innocent and willing wife |
06:07.00 | Fin | +? |
06:07.13 | Fin | yes! I was spot on! |
06:07.16 | Mr_Rabies2 | 3:10 to yuma? |
06:07.29 | Mr_Rabies2 | i haven't seen it yet, i missed it in theaters and was angry at myself for doing so |
06:07.39 | Mr_Rabies2 | i try to hit all the good movies up in theaters |
06:07.45 | Fin | don't be angry at yourself for that |
06:07.55 | Fin | the cool thing about things like that is, you can let yourself off lightly |
06:08.04 | Mr_Rabies2 | there's just nothing that compares to the theater sound and visual |
06:08.06 | Fin | just give yourself a stern warning and we'll let that one slide |
06:08.22 | Fin | sure, but no need for anger, that's just making it worse for no reason |
06:08.25 | Fin | war starts out like that! |
06:08.36 | Mr_Rabies2 | i'm really pissed off that i haven't seen the final cut of blade runner in theaters when it was reshowing |
06:08.37 | Mr_Rabies2 | :[ |
06:08.45 | Mr_Rabies2 | because i haven't seen blade runner at all |
06:08.47 | Mr_Rabies2 | at all |
06:08.49 | Mr_Rabies2 | ever |
06:08.55 | Fin | that's a great film, but man, is it overused |
06:09.02 | Mr_Rabies2 | i don't know how i haven't seen it |
06:09.06 | Fin | it's like lord of the rings |
06:09.18 | Mr_Rabies2 | my friend got the ubercollectors edition |
06:09.23 | Mr_Rabies2 | about 5 different cuts of the movie |
06:09.26 | Mr_Rabies2 | he's a film nerd |
06:09.28 | Fin | (the book) |
06:09.37 | Fin | (sorry) |
06:09.41 | Mr_Rabies2 | he got like |
06:09.43 | Mr_Rabies2 | let's see |
06:09.47 | bleeter | I love how Jeter managed to get the book of Androids to work with the movie Bladerunner |
06:09.57 | Mr_Rabies2 | an arthouse collection |
06:10.04 | Mr_Rabies2 | Janus 50 year collection |
06:10.11 | Mr_Rabies2 | 50 discs, like a grand |
06:10.43 | Mr_Rabies2 | http://www.amazon.com/Essential-Art-House-Years-Janus/dp/B000I5YUE4 |
06:10.52 | Fin | bleeter, was that an unsubtle way of pointing out that you've read the book, and before seeing the movie, thus making you less of a loser than us types? |
06:11.36 | Fin | it was, wasn't it, tut |
06:11.46 | Fin | and yes I am a loser, I only read it after |
06:11.51 | Fin | and actually I preferred the film! |
06:11.55 | bleeter | Fin: nah, just an observation that post.. whenever it was 1996 or so.. the book don't make much sense without seeing the movie, the movie don't make much sense without reading the book |
06:12.06 | Mr_Rabies2 | i mean |
06:12.12 | bleeter | and neither make much sense as a whole without reading the other three books written by KW Jeter |
06:12.18 | Mr_Rabies2 | i like some arthouse stuff, but it's usually pretentious and boring |
06:12.22 | Mr_Rabies2 | not my thing |
06:12.25 | Mr_Rabies2 | i like to be entertained |
06:12.32 | Fin | yeah, me too |
06:12.39 | Mr_Rabies2 | i care less about the art of filmmaking and more about the entertainment aspect of filmmaking |
06:12.48 | bleeter | so, kinda like The Abyss and 2001, neither of which makes much sense without reading the story in another medium |
06:12.51 | Fin | some of the french arthousey type stuff is good :) |
06:13.08 | Fin | like Delicatessen and that hot french chick, what's her name, Miss Mischief |
06:13.09 | Mr_Rabies2 | one of the few arthouse movies i like so far is "the holy mountain" |
06:13.17 | Mr_Rabies2 | i want to see delicatessen |

08:05.52 | Elkano | art3mis, today's xkcd is great ^^ |
08:06.58 | Thunder_Child | can anyone understand why one flashlight can do 80 lumens for 9.42 hours with 3 batteries whereas another can do 80 lumens for 11 hours with 2 batteries....and the second one is the more expensive one |
08:07.14 | Thunder_Child | err..less expensive |
08:07.39 | art3mis | yeah |
08:08.14 | Thunder_Child | let me rephrase that.... |
08:08.14 | art3mis | different bulbs or better "parts" |
08:08.15 | bleeter | depends on the glimmer rating... or in some cases blean rating |
08:08.22 | art3mis | ;) |
08:08.26 | Thunder_Child | they are both surefire |
08:08.29 | Thunder_Child | same setup |
08:08.54 | bleeter | Thunder_Child: how many bleans? |
08:08.56 | ScytheBlade1 | Today's xkcd alt text is *incredible* |
08:09.13 | Thunder_Child | bleeter, no bleans |
08:09.25 | bleeter | Thunder_Child: impossible. |
08:09.38 | Thunder_Child | bleeter, i mean nothing talks about bleens |
08:09.46 | Thunder_Child | ... |
08:09.46 | bleeter | BLEAN (n) Scientific measure of luminosity : 1 glimmer = 100,000 bleans. Usherettes’ |
08:09.50 | bleeter | torches are designed to produce between 2.5 and 4 bleans, enabling them to assist you |
08:09.53 | bleeter | in falling down stairs,treading on people or putting your hand into a Neapolitan |
08:09.56 | bleeter | tub when reaching for change. |
08:10.07 | Thunder_Child | i hate you people |
08:10.10 | art3mis | same batteries? |
08:10.14 | Thunder_Child | yes |
08:10.34 | art3mis | so say 9.42 on 3 AA's or 11 on 2 AAs? |
08:10.46 | Thunder_Child | Max Output: 80 lumens |
08:10.47 | Thunder_Child | Runtime: 9.42 hours (5.8 hrs tactical-level light) |
08:10.47 | Thunder_Child | Length: 6.50 inches |
08:10.47 | Thunder_Child | Weight: 5.50 ounces |
08:10.47 | Thunder_Child | Battery: Three 123A Lithium |
08:10.53 | Thunder_Child | - |
08:10.55 | Thunder_Child | Max Output: 80 lumens |
08:10.55 | Thunder_Child | Runtime: 11 hours |
08:10.55 | Thunder_Child | Length: 5.09 inches |
08:10.57 | Thunder_Child | Weight: 5.20 ounces |
08:10.59 | Thunder_Child | Battery: Two 123A lithiums |
08:11.09 | Thunder_Child | see...infuriating |
08:11.34 | art3mis | well it's shorter and im gonna assume different bulbs |
08:11.39 | Thunder_Child | both LED |
08:11.51 | art3mis | which could mean taht to produce the same lumens it's basically focusing better |
08:12.15 | art3mis | and that would cause less draw making it gooder |
08:12.21 | bleeter | I'm gunna assume different methods of focussing the light to achieve the 80 lumes, thus one's more efficient than the other |
08:12.31 | art3mis | focal distance qwould be the difference |
08:12.35 | ScytheBlade1 | I don't suppose there's a way to get me banned from the forums on a temporary basis? |
08:12.44 | art3mis | on purpsoe? |
08:13.04 | ScytheBlade1 | Well, kinda |
08:13.10 | ScytheBlade1 | I don't mean things like start linking porn |
08:13.15 | art3mis | just reply to like 40 posts with "christ stop being a dick" |
08:13.21 | art3mis | regardless of topic ;P |
08:13.21 | ScytheBlade1 | lol |
08:13.34 | ScytheBlade1 | That'd probably be more on topic than off though |
08:13.41 | ScytheBlade1 | For at least half the threads |
08:13.43 | Tem | AHAHAHAH |
08:13.45 | art3mis | and then make an alt named Heyzeus |
08:13.52 | Tem | I just CSed a pom pyro mage |
08:13.56 | art3mis | and have him post "alright geez sorry" |
08:13.57 | Tem | and stole AP and PoM |
08:14.01 | ScytheBlade1 | Tem: you win |
08:14.07 | ScytheBlade1 | lol |
08:14.17 | Tem | then I hit him with a 4k instant frostbolt |
08:14.18 | Tem | and he died |
08:14.54 | ScytheBlade1 | But seriously, I need a way to temp ban myself from the forums :/ |
08:15.09 | Tem | make a post that looks like a keylogger post |
08:15.16 | Tem | an overzealous mod will ban you |
08:15.17 | art3mis | Thunder_Child: focal point would be the big thing, if the second has a focal of say 2 feet and the first has one of 8 feet |
08:15.20 | Tem | then you can appeal |
08:15.29 | ScytheBlade1 | That might work |
08:15.48 | art3mis | Thunder_Child: the more expensive 1 is gonna be less efficient since it would need to draw more power to achieve the same lumens at that distance |
08:15.58 | bleeter | Tem: that kinda stuff's awesome when it comes off, makes me rofl on my mage |
08:16.06 | Thunder_Child | art3mis, why? |
08:16.16 | art3mis | cuz technically it's brighter |
08:16.27 | art3mis | if you were to copare both at the same focal |
08:16.29 | art3mis | compare |
08:16.33 | Thunder_Child | ah, ok i see what you mean |
08:16.38 | Thunder_Child | i had them backwards |
08:16.53 | art3mis | a focal of 15 is gonne be at least 4 times as bright as a focal of 3 if both are measured at 3 |
08:16.56 | Thunder_Child | well there isnt any focal point |
08:16.58 | bleeter | ScytheBlade1: hah, well, thanks for saying the words that were hidden behind my post ;) |
08:17.03 | Thunder_Child | but distance can be |
08:17.05 | art3mis | thats more than likely the difference |

08:36.19 | Rayne | sorry I got a headache |
08:36.23 | Fin | I have a network at home. it is [PUBLIC 1 (FreeBSD)]===[INTERNET]===[PUBLIC 2 (Windows XP)]----[PRIVATE2 (Windows XP)] |
08:36.28 | Fin | if that makes sense |
08:36.38 | Rayne | No |
08:36.44 | art3mis | k |
08:36.48 | Fin | ie, two machines connected to the internet publically, and one sharing the connection off the public XP machine |
08:37.01 | art3mis | sort of retarded but okay |
08:37.24 | Fin | in the end I want to have the FreeBSD machine as the router (that's how I had it before) but when I moved flats it all fucked up |
08:37.32 | Fin | anyway |
08:37.41 | Fin | I've got samba on the bsd box |
08:38.02 | Fin | and everybody can see everybody, *except* the private xp machine can't see the public xp machine's shared folders |
08:38.14 | art3mis | share the drive from xp2 as a mounted drive on xp1 then mount that on the fbsd box |
08:38.16 | Fin | actually I haven't checked to see if the bsd machine can see the public xp machine's shared folders |
08:38.25 | art3mis | oh |
08:39.20 | Fin | the private xp machine can *see* the public xp machine, but when I try and browse it says "Access denied (you may not have sufficient privileges to access this network)" or something |
08:39.24 | Fin | -and- |
08:39.46 | Fin | I've been fiddling with Windows Firewall on both machines to see if I can fix it |
08:40.02 | art3mis | enabled netbios overtcp |
08:40.06 | art3mis | on public1 |
08:40.06 | Fin | yup |
08:40.08 | Fin | yup |
08:40.14 | art3mis | file and printer sharing enabled? |
08:40.23 | Fin | explicitly, not auto on both machines |
08:40.27 | Fin | yup |
08:40.30 | Fin | on both machines |
08:40.33 | art3mis | exception in the firewall for it? 135-139 |
08:40.43 | ScytheBlade1 | And 445 |
08:40.46 | ScytheBlade1 | tcp/udp |
08:40.47 | art3mis | and 445 |
08:40.50 | Fin | it's there, set to local network only |
08:40.52 | Fin | yup |
08:41.05 | art3mis | 192.168.1.xxx on all 3 machines? |
08:41.09 | Fin | there's a predefined entry for file and printer sharing |
08:41.39 | Fin | no, it's 192.168.100.x on all 3 machines, but I don't need DHCP and Internet access works fine from the private machine |
08:41.46 | Fin | ie it can use the public XP machine as a gateway OK |
08:42.26 | art3mis | so priv and bsd have no issues talkig and sharing? |
08:42.35 | art3mis | but neither can talk and share with pubxp? |
08:42.38 | Fin | I set it up as a shared connection, then changed the (internal) IP on the public machine, and the default gateway on the private machine |
08:43.05 | Fin | that's been the only way I can get anything over to the private machine so far - copy it to the bsd machine and then copy it over to the private from the bsd share |
08:43.09 | Fin | oh! |
08:43.21 | Fin | I have now managed to get it so that I can see the private machine from the public machine and copy files, now |
08:43.24 | Rayne | I need to finish wrapping up Cherry Healer one of these days |
08:43.26 | Fin | that is a recent development |
08:43.32 | Fin | it's just the other way round that's broken |
08:43.42 | art3mis | oh btw |
08:43.54 | art3mis | you DO need to reboot when you enabled the netbios over tcp ;P |
08:44.09 | Fin | (thanks for this btw, I hate networks and they hate me) |
08:44.22 | Fin | I've had it enabled since forever, but just in case I will reboot both machines now |
08:44.34 | ScytheBlade1 | Oh well, time to sleep |

08:46.41 | Fin | I'm just going to go and see if I can VNC to the public from private, back in a sefc |
08:46.44 | Fin | -f |
08:48.23 | Fin | yup |
08:48.33 | Fin | so it's not a networking issue |
08:48.46 | Fin | it's some fucking windows permissions cock |
08:49.33 | Fin | oh, and, when I reboot the private xp machine, and browse the local network -> windows network -> click on my workgroup: it complains that I don't have permission |
08:49.48 | Fin | *but* the shared drive mounted off the BSD box I can get to fine |
08:50.56 | Fin | oh, I know how to fix that now - I just do \\bsd box\, then it shows that it's in the workgroup I was just trying to browse and couldn't, and now the workgroup is browseable |

09:00.24 | Fin | last time I try and help anyone else out, hmph! |
09:00.27 | Thunder_Child | Fin, i got out of networking for a reason |
09:00.40 | Thunder_Child | so i didnt have to help people like you |
09:01.09 | art3mis | still not working? |
09:01.20 | Fin | it hasn't been working since we moved in 6 months ago |
09:01.22 | art3mis | can you access back and forth in any way? |
09:01.36 | art3mis | turn off the firewalls on both machines and check again |
09:02.50 | Fin | the only thing that's not working, basically, is the private XP machine's ability to see or accesss the shares on the public xp machine |
09:04.20 | Thunder_Child | and you said it has access? |
09:04.26 | Thunder_Child | networking access* |
09:04.51 | Thunder_Child | are you using workgroup or domain? |
09:05.07 | Thunder_Child | ~poke Fin |
09:05.08 | purl | ACTION cuts down a small tree, sneaks up behind Fin, pokes Fin repeatedly, hilarity ensues. |
09:09.52 | Fin | sorry, I was just in the other room |
09:09.55 | Fin | workgroup |
09:10.04 | Fin | -s |
09:10.30 | Thunder_Child | multiple workgroups? |
09:10.33 | Fin | what were the ports needed for windows file sharing again? |
09:10.39 | Fin | no, just one, the same across all machines |
09:10.39 | Kalroth_ | Fin vs Windows, part deux |
09:10.47 | Fin | the private xp machine can see the workgroup OK now |
09:10.58 | Fin | and it can access itself and the bsd shares OK |
09:11.07 | Fin | it just can't even see what shares the public xp machine has |
09:11.20 | Fin | part deux cent more like |
09:12.05 | Fin | so, what are the XP UDP + TCP ports that need to have exceptions, again? I just want to double check |
09:12.41 | Fin | it's set up as TCP 139 + 445 & UDP 137 + 138 |
09:14.02 | Fin | that's the system defined settings for "File and Print Sharing" |
09:14.10 | art3mis | 445 udp as well |
09:14.12 | Fin | I can't even add a port, can't change it at all |
09:14.16 | art3mis | but other than that its right |
09:14.25 | Fin | it's not listed |
09:14.43 | Fin | but, I can see the private xp machine's shares and access them fine from the public xp machine |
09:14.45 | art3mis | can you access it with firewall disabled on both machines? |
09:14.46 | Fin | and they're set up identically |
09:15.08 | Fin | I'll give it a go |
09:15.18 | art3mis | that will help narrow down the issue |
09:16.14 | Fin | well, see you in a minute then, I'm not leaving the public XP machine connected to the net and that's where I've got my pietty session to my screen session to my irssi session |
09:17.01 | art3mis | umm why? |
09:17.13 | art3mis | its not like in that 5 mins of testing smoeone is gonna haxxor you |
09:19.11 | Thunder_Child | we would |
09:21.35 | art3mis | shush penfold |
09:28.38 | Fin | why is because I truly do not trust windows machines, is all |
09:29.12 | Fin | I've been on a machine that was hacked while I was installing the XP updates |
09:29.46 | Fin | and when I look at the logs on my BSD machine, the number of random login attempts is amazing! it's not like I advertise that machine at all, it's crazy |
09:30.12 | art3mis | so does it work? |
09:30.18 | Fin | the answer is, btw: disabling both firewalls doesn't affect the problem |
09:30.50 | art3mis | did you reboot both machines? |
09:30.54 | Fin | I'm going to buy some cigarettes |
09:31.14 | Fin | no, I didn't, but I'm pretty sure the firewall was disabled because the log files stopped getting updated |

11:03.43 | reqol | hmm, before (not sure when this was broken) I was able to use this macro /cast [nostealth,nocombat,nomounted] Stealth /dismount [mounted] if you spammed it, you would not be taken out of stealth |
11:04.02 | reqol | however, now the macro has a very small window of crapportunity in which it will take you out of stealth, this seems to occur invariably right as stealth is cast |
11:04.10 | reqol | so if you spam it to cast stealth, it will take you out of it |
11:04.18 | reqol | ruining the entire point of the macro, essentially. |
11:10.16 | Industrial | try putting the dismount before the stealth cast |
11:11.33 | Tem | or just use the auto dismount stuff |
11:11.47 | Tem | and then there's no need for the macro at all |

14:09.15 | ralfWORK | wonder why it would have to be guessed |
14:09.22 | cladhaire | range information isn't available, beyond the range of your spells, and interaction distances. |
14:09.32 | *** join/#wowi-lounge End_ (n=end@c-67-166-36-89.hsd1.co.comcast.net) |
14:09.39 | ralfWORK | seems like that's something blizzard would make available |
14:09.52 | Lopeppeppy | Nope. Seems like they don't want you to know exact distances, so they don't make it available. |
14:10.08 | cladhaire | what he said |
14:10.27 | ralfWORK | well obviously the blizzard gods have determined we are on a need to know basis, as with all things |
14:10.31 | ralfWORK | just seems odd to me |
14:10.31 | cladhaire | why would they want to give you distance in some fictional measurement system. |
14:10.34 | cladhaire | ? |
14:10.37 | cladhaire | what would it give you |
14:10.56 | ralfWORK | the ability of knowing when I'm too close for certain effects |
14:11.00 | Lopeppeppy | All we really need to know is that a spell is or is not in range. And they let us scan the spellbook to find that out, so we're set. |
14:11.01 | cladhaire | you have that |
14:11.02 | cladhaire | already |
14:11.10 | cladhaire | hence my question |
14:11.27 | bleeter | oO on the subject of Sun doing weird stuff... how did I miss them opening up the UltraSPARC T2 to GPL? Free 8 core 64bit processor? R.O.F.L.Z. |
14:11.54 | ralfWORK | I wonder how deadly boss mods does it then |
14:12.09 | cladhaire | using the things we've told you about |
14:12.13 | cladhaire | spell ranges, and interaction distances |
14:12.24 | cladhaire | but listening isn't cool |
14:12.30 | ralfWORK | what do you mean by interaction distances? |
14:13.28 | cladhaire | http://www.wowwiki.com/API_CheckInteractDistance |
14:13.33 | ralfWORK | ok |
14:14.40 | ralfWORK | huh. interesting. |
14:15.04 | ralfWORK | I guess I just wonder on stuff like Prince |
14:15.06 | cladhaire | like i said, spell distances do what you want them to do |
14:15.15 | cladhaire | ... |
14:15.22 | ralfWORK | where wowwiki says the shadow nova is 25-28 yards, iirc |
14:15.37 | cladhaire | yes? |
14:15.46 | [Ammo] | 25-28 sounds like a good guestimate :) |
14:15.54 | cladhaire | they use spell ranges |
14:16.05 | Fisker- | [Ammo] |
14:16.08 | ralfWORK | obviously that doesn't fall under any of these interactive distances |
14:16.11 | Fisker- | you has 100 stacks of netherweave cloth? |
14:16.24 | cladhaire | ralfWORK: yes it does |
14:16.34 | [Ammo] | you can also use some guessing |
14:16.42 | cladhaire | if you have a 20 yard spell |
14:16.44 | cladhaire | and a 40 yard spell |
14:16.46 | cladhaire | (you do) |
14:16.52 | cladhaire | you know where the 30 yard spell is. |
14:16.55 | ralfWORK | I see 30 yards, 11.11 yards, 9.9 yards |
14:16.59 | cladhaire | jesus christs |
14:17.01 | cladhaire | SPELL RANGES |
14:17.06 | cladhaire | like i've said 10,000 times |
14:17.20 | cladhaire | feral charge is 8-25 yars |
14:17.25 | cladhaire | when i get OUT of range,m |
14:17.28 | ralfWORK | mm ok |
14:17.30 | cladhaire | i'm 26 yards from the mob |
14:17.46 | cladhaire | repeat ad nauseum |
14:17.53 | mikma | <PROTECTED> |
14:18.02 | cladhaire | im' out of range. |
14:18.09 | mikma | damn |
14:18.10 | ralfWORK | how do you know? :) |
14:18.12 | bleeter | s/range/your mind/ :P |
14:18.36 | Lopeppeppy | Look at your spellbook and query it, ralfWORK |
14:18.49 | ralfWORK | I understand what you're saying now |
14:19.25 | Fisker- | i am going to rape and kill you all |
14:19.28 | Fisker- | but not in that order |
14:19.41 | ralfWORK | just seems funny to me that the information isn't something blizzard wants you to know |
14:19.56 | Lopeppeppy | It's their code, their game, house rules. |
14:19.56 | ralfWORK | also seems like it's a royal pain in the ass to document ranges of such things |
14:20.02 | ralfWORK | no shit sherlock |
14:20.25 | ralfWORK | I've figured that part out quite a while ago. doesn't change the fact that I can have an opinion of those house rules :) |
14:20.39 | bleeter | is inspect still 30 yards? I seem to recall they said the increased range recently |
14:20.46 | bleeter | *said they |
14:20.53 | Lopeppeppy | Rage against The Man is pretty "yesterday" |
14:20.58 | ralfWORK | naw |
14:21.01 | ralfWORK | not raging |
14:21.42 | ralfWORK | just trying to imagine the massive exploit they are concerned with people using |
14:22.23 | cladhaire | ralfWORK: Again, how in the hell does a magical fictional number matter to you? |
14:22.28 | Fisker- | i know how to circumvent blizzard's game and rules |
14:22.31 | Fisker- | just shout hard enough |
14:22.33 | cladhaire | its useless, unless you're concerned about your own spells, and you have full informatino about those. |
14:22.43 | Fisker- | let your QQ blot out the sun |
14:23.04 | cladhaire | lol |
14:23.23 | ralfWORK | cladhaire: I understand the mechanics of deriving distances within the current construct. |
14:23.33 | cladhaire | and you still haven't answered my question |
14:23.39 | cladhaire | how does knowing you are X yards from a mob do anything for you |
14:23.49 | ralfWORK | why the hell would anyone want to know anything about the game at all? |
14:23.49 | cladhaire | considering the yard is an imaginary distance that only has relevance wrt spells |
14:23.58 | cladhaire | ... |
14:24.01 | ralfWORK | how about we all just have spells light up when in range |
14:24.08 | ralfWORK | and remove "yards" from all descriptions |
14:24.22 | ralfWORK | remove any distance description |
14:24.30 | [Ammo] | yards gives a pretty good idea on where you need to be |
14:24.44 | [Ammo] | just silly that the only country in europe that uses it is the uk |
14:24.45 | cladhaire | because people use those distances as reference points |
14:25.08 | ralfWORK | why would there be a way to say, have coordinates on a map, yet not determine a measurable distance from a mob |
14:25.24 | cladhaire | the coorindates are derived |
14:25.25 | cladhaire | not given |
14:25.28 | cladhaire | first off |
14:25.32 | *** part/#wowi-lounge Lopeppeppy (n=Lopeppep@141.222.29.30) |
14:25.33 | cladhaire | and we have no way to get the coordinates of the target |
14:25.45 | ralfWORK | right, I've figured that |
14:25.54 | ralfWORK | (the latter, not the former. didn't know that) |
14:26.02 | bleeter | well, you can |
14:26.07 | bleeter | but you need to be in range |
14:26.10 | cladhaire | yep |
14:26.11 | ralfWORK | DOH |
14:26.41 | cladhaire | there are addons that already approximate this as best as the API allows |
14:26.47 | cladhaire | just download one of them, as we suggested |
14:27.08 | [Ammo] | there has been some discussion about caculcating coordinates based on the coordinates of other players in your party and the spell ranges |
14:27.16 | [Ammo] | but that's not going to be perfect and almost impossible in instances :) |
14:27.35 | [Ammo] | not to mention doing it often -> nice slowdown |
14:27.35 | ralfWORK | Sorry. I didn't realize theorizing why blizzard created a limitation for us would be so frustrating |
14:27.43 | cladhaire | that's not whats frustrating |
14:27.47 | cladhaire | you not listening is what's frustrating |
14:27.50 | *** join/#wowi-lounge malikeye|work (n=malikeye@152.16.189.16) |
14:27.59 | cladhaire | they don't create limitations, they reveal information if they see a good reason for it |
14:28.14 | cladhaire | that's why there isn't an API function to get the type of hairstyle that my character has, even tho they could easily add it. |
14:28.34 | cladhaire | They have chosen not to give us an API function for range, and I can't see much of a reason why we'd need it, so I was sharing my perspective on the matter. |
14:28.52 | cladhaire | while giving you full informatino about how the range can be derived |
14:28.54 | cladhaire | and being ignored, mind you. |
14:28.58 | ralfWORK | not at all |
14:29.03 | ralfWORK | read what I am saying |
14:29.14 | ralfWORK | I understand the ways of deriving it now |
14:29.22 | ralfWORK | I was aware of deduction via spell ranges |
14:29.31 | cladhaire | great |
14:29.34 | ralfWORK | I am now aware of interaction distances, which I was not before |
14:29.36 | cladhaire | it took you 9 minutes to figure that out, even tho I told you |

14:29.47 | cladhaire | but that's neither here nor there |

16:32.04 | mikma | so you're ok in the fact that people submit other people work in sites basicly? |
16:32.30 | Industrial | do I have to escape literal |'s in fontstrings? |
16:32.38 | Fin | I was talking to the author at a bit before I uploaded it (uhhhh June last year I think?), he implied he wasn't going to be developing it anymore; actually the reason I was contacting him was to ask if I could use some of his code |
16:32.57 | Fin | why do people jump to the worst conclusion all the time, really |
16:33.22 | Industrial | if you upload someone elses addont hat means he is out of control, mostly feedback |
16:34.43 | Fin | that's why I asked whether there was a copy of the policy somewhere |
16:35.33 | Fin | because I wasn't sure if it applied after the author has given permission to upload it elsewhere, or if the author can't be contacted, or if the author has explicitly stopped development / disowned it, etc. |
16:36.34 | Bela|work | I am back |
16:36.35 | Bela|work | sorry |
16:37.10 | Bela|work | no one is treating you like an idiot |
16:37.14 | Bela|work | are they? |
16:37.58 | Bela|work | its completely possible that the author stopped development, or gave you permission, at the time you psoted it |
16:38.01 | Bela|work | it WAS a while ago |
16:38.12 | Bela|work | but since he has posted it ON wowi, with a newer version |
16:38.17 | Bela|work | we are just trying to stay on top of things |
16:38.39 | Fin | it does feel like it a bit, with mikma's assumptions and Industrial pointing out the obvious |
16:39.07 | End | clearly you are just a bad person! |
16:39.14 | End | :P |
16:39.15 | Fin | OK, so, doesn't matter: just delete the version I uploaded if that's OK |
16:39.18 | Fin | or can I do that myself? |
16:40.16 | Fin | and, *is* there a copy of WoWI's policy somewhere? |
16:40.36 | Fin | I'm not sure I was even aware there was a policy at all when I uploaded it, to be honest |
16:41.08 | Bela|work | I am finding it one second |
16:41.12 | Fin | thanks |

16:45.00 | End | not to mention, an author could give you explicit permission :P |
16:45.20 | Fin | I've got the emails from him and stuff if you need them, but, what's the procedure, in cases like someone taking over an addon, or permission being given, or responsibility disowned, and stuff? I know you just need to cover your backs (and be the good guys too!) is it just ad hoc every time? |
16:46.06 | Bela|work | the rules probably need to be updated tbh. In my experience what actually happens is. If the author has given you permission (and this can be confirmed) we are ok with it. But the author has full rights to pull the plug at any time. In this case he has already psoted a newer version that was updated as recently as november. |
16:46.32 | Bela|work | its the only reason we flagged it |
16:46.42 | Bela|work | no one should be coming down on your about it |
16:46.58 | Fin | and I'm sure you've thought of this already and will at some point if you want to, etc., but, maybe you could add a link to this post from the addon upload area? I miss shit like this all the time :/ |
16:47.07 | Bela|work | I agree |
16:47.12 | Bela|work | and will recommend it |
16:48.14 | Fin | he didn't give me explicit permission, to be clear, but he did give me permission to use his code and sounded very much like he wasn't going to be doing anything on it again. probably the best thing to do would be to delete it, if that's not easy then I could upload a blank file and change the description to point to his proper version? |
16:49.00 | Bela|work | that or if he gave you permission to use his code, just rename yours so that it can be identified accurately as a fork |
16:49.08 | Bela|work | if thats what you want to do |
16:49.09 | End | I was covering the "you have the right to distribute legally" portion :P |
16:49.55 | End | when it comes to addons, most people play things a bit loosely |
16:50.05 | Fin | hmm, well it was never intended as a fork - I wanted to use his code in a Prat module I never wrote |
16:50.33 | End | (and that includes my own addons...as far as I'm concerned people can fork my addons if they really want, but I haven't actually given permission) |
16:50.56 | Fin | I'll mail him and let him know, that's a good idea, he'll probably be happy to explicitly state that it was OK for me to upload it :) |
16:50.58 | cladhaire | Fin: No one jumped to any conclusions, just wanted to let you know we'd be looking at it, because it shouldn't have slipped past us |

There may be some things in it that ARE enforced though, like the reposting of code that isn't yours (and not given permission by the original author) or code that violates Blizzard TOS |

16:56.55 | cogwheel | I think our next book should be "Learning to Program with Lua: A Biased and Dogmatic Introduction to the World of Computer Science." It would be a semi-humorous book filled with shoulds, and have tos in place of mays and want tos. |

17:17.59 | Bela|work | so it shouldn't take long at all |
17:18.18 | kd3 | next tuesday/wednesday, hopefully |
17:18.24 | Bela|work | I am sure they want to move on to 2.4 testing as soon as they can |
17:18.37 | Cairenn | early prezzie from hubby (before he went back to the US) was additional ram & hd for my computer, daughter gave me a book I'd been asking for, sister took me out for brunch & then yarn shopping, parents got me season one of law & order (the original series) on dvd |
17:18.55 | _sysrage | lol @ yarn shopping |
17:18.55 | Bela|work | so the notes are up, but not the ptr right? |
17:19.01 | Shirik|Ecole | yarn shopping? |
17:19.06 | Bela|work | nor the download =( |
17:19.17 | kd3 | us has no info. eu's got the patch notes up |

17:19.44 | Cairenn | yeah - remember, I crochet - yarn shopping is fun, got some really nice stuff to make myself a scarf with |
17:19.49 | Bela|work | I wonder what they did to improve loading times for new characters |
17:19.59 | Bela|work | and I assume new characters mean (no cache) |
17:20.05 | _sysrage | you should crochet me a scarf with the horde logo on it |
17:20.10 | Cairenn | heh |
17:20.27 | Bela|work | ooh, a horde scarf would be neat |
17:20.50 | Shirik|Ecole | I want a horde scarf |
17:21.21 | Bela|work | I see a business opportunity for you Cairenn. Too bad the logo is copyrighted |
17:21.31 | Cairenn | heh |
17:21.40 | malreth | Bela|work: since it says "characters newly entering" and not "new characters entering" i would wager it's an improvement on performance when you have an empty cache such as after a major patch or something |
17:21.45 | _sysrage | i'll pay under the table and say it was a gift |
17:22.14 | Bela|work | aye thats what I figured too |
17:22.17 | Cairenn | I could make them with our own logo on them ;) |
17:22.35 | malreth | Cairenn: knit one of these... but instead of a frog, make it a murloc: http://www.etsy.com/view_listing.php?listing_id=8880673 |
17:22.36 | End | yeah, does sound like something dealing with the cache |
17:22.38 | Bela|work | so probably an enhancement in caching, or less being cached |
17:22.41 | Bela|work | or both |
17:22.44 | _sysrage | i interpreted it as when you first log in. either way it says 'slight' improvement which probably means you won't notice it but if you use a stopwatch you might see a half second improvement |
17:22.55 | End | or retrieving cachable items |
17:22.57 | Cairenn | ROFL! |
17:23.09 | End | it could be |
17:23.22 | End | I dunno, we'll have to see I guess |
17:23.50 | malreth | Cairenn: the X-ed out eyes would be a nice added touch |

18:00.29 | malreth | the problem is i would rather have federal standards controlling the quality of drugs.. essentially expand the FDA scope a bit... i wanna make sure that if i'm buying smack that it's quality smack |
18:00.50 | ralfWORK | hahaha |
18:01.09 | ralfWORK | nice, almost dead center libertarian |
18:01.23 | ralfWORK | questions are far too vague though |
18:01.39 | cogwheel | ralfWORK: yeah... I think they should make a more in-depth one |
18:01.54 | ralfWORK | I often score libertarion on these things |
18:01.57 | ScytheBlade1 | LOL |
18:01.59 | ScytheBlade1 | CS:S |
18:02.01 | ScytheBlade1 | A HAHA |
18:02.02 | ralfWORK | so I'm not saying it's wrong |
18:02.03 | ScytheBlade1 | THAT EXPLAINS SO MUCH |
18:02.05 | cogwheel | but for proving the point of the false dichotomy of left-right, it serves its purpose well |
18:02.21 | Fin | heheh |

18:02.37 | ScytheBlade1 | I lol'd |
18:02.48 | ralfWORK | here is the dichotomy between left and right false? |

18:05.26 | cogwheel | ralfWORK: the false dichotomy is apparent when you consider how people classify fascists vs. communists. For all intents and purposes, they are essentially the same: everybody's labor is in service of the people. The differences are in the minutiae. Yet people classify communism as far left, and fascism as far right. Also, on a left-right scale I score right in the middle, but i am very much... |
18:05.27 | cogwheel | ...NOT a middle of the road voter |
18:06.02 | ralfWORK | hmm. ok. |
18:06.15 | cogwheel | I have extremely strong feelings about most issues, and it's somewhat offensive that I physically cannot be represented on the left-right spectrum while preserving the nature of my beliefs |

18:06.45 | Josh_Borke | how can you be physically represented in something with a physical representation? |

18:26.53 | ralfWORK | Is outsourcing of American jobs justified if it allows for cheaper goods? |
18:27.32 | Lopeppeppy | Take out the "if" statement. Decide on the basic issue, not the impulsive qualifier statement. |
18:29.59 | ralfWORK | :P |
18:31.15 | Lopeppeppy | *shrug* Basic debate logic. |
18:34.24 | malreth | outsource american jobs -> people in other countries get more jobs -> they make more money -> standard of living increases -> cost of living increases -> they want to make more money to keep up -> they get paid more, raising costs |
18:34.33 | malreth | meanwhile, standard of living drops here |
18:34.45 | malreth | then it all evens out and it becomes cheaper to do the labor here |

20:25.05 | clad|away | pong |
20:25.28 | MentalPower | what is this line supposed to do? file:write(string.sub(indent,1,-3) .. (recurse and "}" or "}\n")) |
20:26.01 | MentalPower | (from serialize.lua) |
20:26.02 | cladhaire | it closes the current table, imo |
20:26.15 | cladhaire | at one level down from the current indent level |
20:26.34 | MentalPower | I'm especially interested in the string.sub() part |
20:26.44 | MentalPower | oh... hmm.... |
20:26.48 | cladhaire | that unindents one level |
20:27.29 | *** join/#wowi-lounge malreth (n=malreth@dhcp-45-34.its.utexas.edu) |
20:27.29 | MentalPower | so if I replace the indent from the current double spaces to a single tab I need to change the string.sub() to string.sub(indent, 1, -2) |
20:27.42 | cladhaire | yes, that should work |
20:28.18 | cladhaire | anyone have experience with: http://www.ebuyer.com/product/63763 |
20:29.44 | MentalPower | I have experience with the WRT54G and WRT54GL, tho the WRT54GS is extremely similar |
20:30.04 | MentalPower | they are the best wireless routers in my opinion |
20:30.14 | cladhaire | cause thats pretty cheap by UK standards |
20:30.14 | cladhaire | and i'll need one |
20:30.18 | cladhaire | and I dont have time or $$ to get the time capsule =( |
20:30.21 | MentalPower | either with the stock firmware or with DD-WRT |
20:30.40 | MentalPower | (I have DD-WRT on the ones I have) |
20:32.11 | cladhaire | Polarina: that quest is happily in the data files |
20:32.17 | cladhaire | I suspect there's an extra space in the API return |
20:32.20 | cladhaire | hence why it doesn't come up |
20:32.31 | MentalPower | I've had two |
20:32.53 | cladhaire | I had a WRTG54 at home |
20:32.55 | cladhaire | and I liked it |
20:33.18 | MentalPower | first was a WRT54GL that was with me for a few years, before I cooked its wireless chip (by increasing its power output *way* above specs) |
20:33.35 | MentalPower | the router part still worked tho |
20:33.48 | cladhaire | nice |
20:33.49 | MentalPower | the second was a WRT54G thats still with me |
20:34.47 | MentalPower | moral of the story, if you want more wireless range, buy better antennas before increasing the power output above 100mw (standard is 84mw, I jacked mine up to 250mw) |
20:34.57 | MentalPower | it worked for about a week before the chip was fried |
20:35.08 | cladhaire | range isn't a concern of mine |
20:35.55 | malreth | if you plan on using a third party firmware on it, check to make sure it'll work before purchasing |
20:36.15 | MentalPower | ah yes, good point malreth |
20:36.39 | malreth | some of the newer versions of the linksys routers do not run linux anymore nor do they have enough flash ram to take a non-standard firmware |
20:36.54 | malreth | or they run with a different processor chip |
20:36.55 | MentalPower | WRT54Gs v1-6 and v8 will work, v7 does not, and v1-v4 work best |
20:37.18 | malreth | also, Tomato is better than DD-WRT. :D |
20:37.19 | cladhaire | meh, i'm not too worried about running the linux firmware |
20:37.47 | MentalPower | v5 v6 and v8 will work, but they have less RAM so you need a micro distro and DD-WRT is the only viable option there |
20:39.07 | MentalPower | malreth: that might be true, but DD-WRT is the only one that runs on my router (v6) |

21:43.23 | art3mis | sun is gonna buy mysql for 1 billion |

21:47.20 | Lunessa | gnome druid! They have "Winnie the Pooh" form instead of Bear/Dire bear |
21:47.22 | End | maybe it was just the gear armor value itself |
21:47.26 | ralfWORK | :D |

21:48.53 | Esamynn|Work | those used to be white, they just made them green to indicate that part of the item's "value" went towards armor |
21:49.00 | Bela|work | if it is excluding anything in green armor values, it would be the bonus armor portion, not the base armor |
21:49.00 | ralfWORK | ahhh ok |
21:49.00 | Lunessa | hunny! |
21:49.03 | ralfWORK | that makes sense |

21:49.54 | art3mis | heh thats what i was typing |
21:50.04 | Bela|work | it PROBABLY applies to green armor points |
