2008-03-14 21:34 * gwern is tempted to skip ahead in the book to see whether there's any listing of the drugs Bush was taking when he thought Harriet would be a good nomination
2008-03-14 21:35 < quanticle> Question - Were there any Supreme Court judges that did not serve as a judge in a lower court first?
2008-03-14 21:36 < gwern> quanticle: the first ones maybe?
2008-03-14 21:36 < Lucifer_Cat> lol
2008-03-14 21:36 < gwern> John Marshall seems to've gone from Sec. State to Chief Justice
2008-03-14 21:37 < Demi> apparently starr wrestled a lot with the decision to include sexual details in his report, but he felt he would be seen as biased if he used euphemisms or vague language... that he might be seen as being unfairly attacking possibly innocent encounters or blowing them (ha!) out of proportion
2008-03-14 21:37 < Lucifer_Cat> im pretty sure that the first ones more than anyone else were the ones who were star judges in their area
2008-03-14 21:37 < gwern> I see no listing in [[John Marshall]] of being a judge before a Justice
2008-03-14 21:38 < quanticle> gwern: Hmm. That's probably correct, given that the American legal system largely didn't exist before the Constitution...
2008-03-14 21:38 < gwern> quanticle: why I thought of it :)
2008-03-14 21:38 < gwern> 0, 1, or infinity...
2008-03-14 21:39 < quanticle> Didn't Taft eventually become the Chief Justice of the Supreme Court?
2008-03-14 21:39 < gwern> sounds right
2008-03-14 21:39 < gwern> but he may've been a judge before
2008-03-14 21:39 < gwern> ' * William Howard Taft, 27th President of the United States and 10th Chief Justice of the United States'
2008-03-14 21:40 < Lucifer_Cat> http://pupismyname.shackspace.com/Gabe_Perez.jpg
2008-03-14 21:40 < gwern> 'Taft served as the Solicitor General of the United States, a federal judge, Governor-General of the Philippines, and Secretary of War before being nominated for President in the 1908 Republican National Convention with the backing of his predecessor and close friend Theodore Roosevelt.' <-- there you go
2008-03-14 21:41 < quanticle> gwern: Ah. So he was a judge before.
2008-03-14 21:41 < gwern> 'That same year, a group of 30 demonstrators from the Procrastinator's Society of America turned out before the Whitechapel Foundry in London where they "...mounted a mock protest over the bell's defects and ... marched up and down ... with placards proclaiming WE GOT A LEMON and WHAT ABOUT THE WARRANTY?" The Whitechapel Foundry told the protesters that they "...would be happy to replace the bell - as long as it was returned to us in ...
2008-03-14 21:41 < gwern> ... its original packaging."' <-- pwned
2008-03-14 21:42 < Lucifer_Cat> haha smart pwnage
2008-03-14 21:42 < Lucifer_Cat> reminds me of that story bout a cambridge student
2008-03-14 21:42 < gwern> Lucifer_Cat: the one about ale and cakes, yes?
2008-03-14 21:42 < Lucifer_Cat> yup that one
2008-03-14 21:42 < gwern> I heard that one, but about oxford...
2008-03-14 21:43 < Lucifer_Cat> may have been oxford, but i remember cambridge somehow.
2008-03-14 21:44 < Demi> hm, i want a numerical encoding that's URL-safe (unlike base64) and shorter than binhex
2008-03-14 21:46 < Demi> ah, there is a "url-safe base64" thing

2008-03-14 21:49 < NotACow> I HATE COMPUTERS
2008-03-14 21:50 < Demi> yes
2008-03-14 21:55 < NotACow> i hate computers that refuse to use their designated ethernet drivers.
2008-03-14 21:56 < Lubaf> NotACow: Could be worse.
2008-03-14 21:57 < Lubaf> They could use their designated sound drivers as their network drivers.
2008-03-14 21:57 < NotACow> Lubaf: this computer has no sound drivers.
2008-03-14 21:57 < NotACow> Lubaf: it has no sound devices, therefore no sound drivers
2008-03-14 21:57 < Lubaf> NotACow: Irrelevant to my point.
2008-03-14 21:57 < NotACow> aha!
2008-03-14 21:57 < NotACow> the firmware updater did NOT install
2008-03-14 21:57 < NotACow> BAD FIRMWARE UPDATER
2008-03-14 21:57 < Lubaf> I was saying it could be worse, and providing an example of how it could be worse.
2008-03-14 21:58 * Lubaf updates his hard-drive's firmware with an update intended for his BIOS.

2008-03-14 22:02 < Lucifer_Cat> and you think the server crashed by accident?
2008-03-14 22:02 < amidaniel|away> heh .. good point :)
2008-03-14 22:03 < amidaniel|away> Just pisses me off that all the thing prolly needs is a reboot, but everyone with the power to do anything about it is on vacation now
2008-03-14 22:03 < amidaniel|away> Oye
2008-03-14 22:03 * amidaniel|away considers busting into the server room tonight and rebooting all the servers manually until he finds the right one :)

2008-03-14 22:36 < Demi> people's lives become ridiculous tragedies in increments
2008-03-14 22:36 * quanticle wonders what the increments to this tragedy were
2008-03-14 22:37 < zocky> fitst she said on the toilet for one year
2008-03-14 22:37 < zocky> *sat
2008-03-14 22:37 < Demi> look at those people whose houses are filled with garbage
2008-03-14 22:37 < Demi> or people who weigh 500+ pounds
2008-03-14 22:38 < zocky> or people with 500+ cats
2008-03-14 22:38 < Demi> or all three at once
2008-03-14 22:40 < arcimboldo_> or people spending most of their time on Wikipedia
2008-03-14 22:41 < Demi> yay, my thing works!
2008-03-14 22:41 * Gracenotes claps politely
2008-03-14 22:41 < arcimboldo_> your "thing"?
2008-03-14 22:41 < Demi> my web framework
2008-03-14 22:42 < arcimboldo_> okay
2008-03-14 22:42 < Demi> my penis is also working fine, if you're curious
2008-03-14 22:42 < zocky> Demi, does it solve all the problems?
2008-03-14 22:42 < zocky> the web framework, not your penis
2008-03-14 22:42 < Demi> no, it solves hardly any
2008-03-14 22:45 < kim_> zocky, thus, similarities abound?
2008-03-14 22:45 * kim_ takes cover
2008-03-14 22:45 < Fennec> boo!
2008-03-14 22:45 < Miranda> o.O hi Fennec
2008-03-14 22:45 < kim_> FENNEC!
2008-03-14 22:45 < Miranda> Fennec: where's tillie?
2008-03-14 22:46 < Fennec> hmm. oh. good question.
2008-03-14 22:46 < kim_> Fennec, don't worry about Miranda's o.O thing... she does it to everyone. ;-)
2008-03-14 22:46 * Fennec needs a new box.
2008-03-14 22:46 < Miranda> kim_: grr...
2008-03-14 22:46 < kim_> Fennec, we deliver anywhere
2008-03-14 22:46 * Fennec will convert his old laptop over sometime. hook it up.
2008-03-14 22:47 < kim_> Fennec, SRSLY, my younger brother has this odd skill which he really ought to be monetizing. Deliver a max price/performance machine (or at least components thereof) to any location on the planet
2008-03-14 22:47 < Fennec> run neat things like statsbots.
2008-03-14 22:47 < kim_> Meh
2008-03-14 22:47 < kim_> Miranda, O:-)
2008-03-14 22:47 < Miranda> kim_: lolz
2008-03-14 22:48 < Fennec> I have used laptop with minor USB-related issues and aging battery. It oughta work fine as a small toy-server for things like that. marginal cost, zero.
2008-03-14 22:48 < Fennec> electricity, basically.
2008-03-14 22:48 < kim_> Fennec, I got too many toy servers like that ;-)
2008-03-14 22:49 < kim_> Fennec, sounds like a plan
2008-03-14 22:49 < Fennec> maybe I'll set that up tomorrow when I'm done with other things like taxes.
2008-03-14 22:49 < Demi> for me the question about keeping something around is no longer about whether i might have a use for it but is it worth the space premium
2008-03-14 22:49 < Miranda> Fennec: yeah you have to get your taxes done before everything else
2008-03-14 22:50 < Miranda> especially when you get money back
2008-03-14 22:52 < Fennec> why, I believe I will. =)
2008-03-14 22:52 < Miranda> I hope Mike_H and everyone in the ATL area is doing ok, there was a storm near the Georgia dome
2008-03-14 22:53 < Fennec> also will practice some music
2008-03-14 22:53 < Fennec> have I mentioned my choice of instrument I have started to learn?
2008-03-14 22:53 < Fennec> >.>
2008-03-14 22:53 < seyfarth> Anyone online that would happen to know a bit about the "Scientology and the Internet" article or simply has some insight into some of its content?
2008-03-14 22:53 < Demi> i wonder what those processes i killed do?
2008-03-14 22:54 < kim_> seyfarth, that'd be a lot of people
2008-03-14 22:54 < kim_> felipe`, whatchalearning?
2008-03-14 22:54 < kim_> Demi, ummm....
2008-03-14 22:54 < kim_> sorry felipe`
2008-03-14 22:54 < kim_> Fennec, which instrument?
2008-03-14 22:55 < kim_> Fennec, and btw, Mindspillage can often be convinced to take along an instrument of her own, if you want to jam :-)
2008-03-14 22:55 < seyfarth> Well I was trying to look up the original posting of the xenu story that the scientology v internet article mentions, but I can't seem to locate it on Google groups. I did find a nice DMCA takedown notice though.
2008-03-14 22:56 < Fennec> kim_: I am taking harp lessons :)
2008-03-14 22:56 < kim_> Fennec, Cool instrument!
2008-03-14 22:56 < NotACow> harps are cute
2008-03-14 22:56 < kim_> bit heavy
2008-03-14 22:57 < Fennec> 36 string Lyon and Healy Troubador III.
2008-03-14 22:57 < Fennec> more or less this one http://www.lyonhealy.com/lever-troubadour-vi.htm
2008-03-14 22:57 < quanticle> Not exactly the most transportable of instruments, is it, Fennec?
2008-03-14 22:57 < Fennec> I am renting.
2008-03-14 22:57 < Fennec> quanticle: nope.
2008-03-14 22:57 < Fennec> I want this one. http://www.camac-harps.com/camac-harps-eng/littlebb.html
2008-03-14 22:57 < NotACow> get one with antigravity lifts, those are much easier to manage.
2008-03-14 22:58 < quanticle> Fennec: Rather more like a piano than a guitar...
2008-03-14 22:58 < seyfarth> So, anyone happen to have any insight into usenet posts from 14 years ago? ^_^
2008-03-14 22:58 < kim_> quanticle, just be glad it's not a [[Carillon]]
2008-03-14 22:58 < kim_> quanticle, a piano is a harp with hammers
2008-03-14 22:58 < arcimboldo_> ... the strings aren't have, I wonder whether there are some ultralight carbon-based frames available for harps ...
2008-03-14 22:58 < arcimboldo_> have -> heavy
2008-03-14 22:58 < kim_> electroharp?
2008-03-14 22:59 < quanticle> arcimboldo: Well, the frame needs to be heavy to damp out extraneous vibrations.
2008-03-14 22:59 < kim_> seyfarth, aren't they hosted at xs4all?
2008-03-14 22:59 < Fennec> kim_: hmm? yes, CAmac makes a little electric lever harp
2008-03-14 22:59 < Fennec> kim_: I want the electroacoustic one with pedals.
2008-03-14 22:59 < kim_> seyfarth, karin spainks homepage
2008-03-14 23:00 < kim_> seyfarth, http://www.xs4all.nl/~kspaink/fishman/home.html <- looking for this?
2008-03-14 23:00 < kim_> http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Karin_Spaink
2008-03-14 23:00 < quanticle> arcimboldo: Also, its unclear whether carbon fiber would be able to take that kind of constant load without shattering like glass after a few years.
2008-03-14 23:00 < kim_> ^- wiki page
2008-03-14 23:00 < seyfarth> kim_: thank you!
2008-03-14 23:01 < Fennec> arcimboldo_: I think they usually go for wood for the acoustic properties, but there are some solid-body types for the electric ones.
2008-03-14 23:05 < gwern> [[kibo]] <-- I'm amazed this article still exists
2008-03-14 23:06 < quanticle> Fennec: So how does on play a harp, exactly?
2008-03-14 23:06 < quanticle> Do you just strum the strings with your hands?
2008-03-14 23:06 < Fennec> not really strum
2008-03-14 23:06 < pengo> gwern: why?
2008-03-14 23:07 < Fennec> strumming is more of a horizontal motion, moving same finger over multiple strings. don't really want that at all on harp, unless you're doing a glissando thingy. you'll hit too many notes at once.
2008-03-14 23:07 < Fennec> plucking the harp, the fingers move more vertically than horizontally.
2008-03-14 23:08 < pengo> gwern: you mean [[KIBO]] ?
2008-03-14 23:09 < quanticle> Fennec: Ah I see. So you pluck to hit individual notes. I take it your ability to do chords is limited, then?
2008-03-14 23:09 < Fennec> quanticle: you can hit eight notes at a time (four fingers on each hand, omit pinky)
2008-03-14 23:12 < quanticle> Fennec: Simultaneously, like with a piano?
2008-03-14 23:12 < Fennec> yep
2008-03-14 23:12 < quanticle> Whoa. How does that work?
2008-03-14 23:12 < Fennec> I'd offer to webcam it :P but it's past 9 so I'd rather not play. have neighbors in this-here apartment.
2008-03-14 23:13 < quanticle> Ah. Ok.
2008-03-14 23:13 < quanticle> Anyway, I should be heading off to bed myself. Its been a long day...
2008-03-14 23:14 < Fennec> remind me some time tomorrow
2008-03-14 23:14 < Fennec> sure
2008-03-14 23:14 < Fennec> good night
2008-03-14 23:16 < NotACow> this installer is annoyingly slow
2008-03-14 23:17 < Messedrocker> well that's what you get when you try to install the hadron supercollider on windows 98
2008-03-14 23:18 < gwern> pengo: yes. because it's such an internet phenomenon, and more importantly, a part of the internet that for Wikipedians is a distant memory, if they were ever even on usenet, which would make people even more contemptuous of such cruft
2008-03-14 23:19 < pengo> gwern: yes. KIBO is crap and should be deleted.
2008-03-14 23:20 < gwern> weren't for the wired article, it surely would've perished long ago
2008-03-14 23:21 < Werdna> any french speakers?
2008-03-14 23:21 < Miranda> Werdna: yep, try #wikipedia-fr
2008-03-14 23:21 < Werdna> I know about that channel
2008-03-14 23:22 < Werdna> I'm after people who speak both
2008-03-14 23:22 * Werdna needs suggestions for something to read in french for practicve
2008-03-14 23:22 < Miranda> might ask Shanel or Pathoschild
2008-03-14 23:22 < nokmar> Werdna: then go to ##cremepuff222
2008-03-14 23:22 * Lycurgus suggests "Le Petit Prince"
2008-03-14 23:23 < Lycurgus> .
2008-03-14 23:23 < Werdna> good idea
2008-03-14 23:24 * NedScott is stumpted

2008-03-14 23:25 < Lycurgus> or perhaps "Cousin Bette" if you're feeling ambitious.
2008-03-14 23:25 < Leslie_S> finally moved :D
2008-03-14 23:26 < Werdna> sauce?

2008-03-14 23:29 < Miranda> hi
2008-03-14 23:30 < Leslie_S> almost hit a fucking deer. with a uhaul.
2008-03-14 23:30 < Leslie_S> ;/
2008-03-14 23:31 < Leslie_S> when i say "a deer", i mean, three.
2008-03-14 23:31 < The359> the UHaul would win
2008-03-14 23:31 < NotACow> Leslie_S: i hit a deer with a rental van once
2008-03-14 23:32 < NotACow> Leslie_S: actually, it was more like the deer hit me
2008-03-14 23:32 < NotACow> it was a good sized young buck
2008-03-14 23:32 < NotACow> struck a glancing blow to the left rear corner
2008-03-14 23:32 < Leslie_S> uh
2008-03-14 23:32 < NotACow> put a dent in the side of the car
2008-03-14 23:32 < Lycurgus> in IL?
2008-03-14 23:32 < Leslie_S> the thing is, it was my volvo pulling a uhaul trailer
2008-03-14 23:32 < NotACow> er, van
2008-03-14 23:32 < NotACow> Lycurgus: indiana
2008-03-14 23:33 < Leslie_S> NotACow this was pretty close to that. i was cruising nice and slow and, for the first time in the whole day, below the 45mph that uhaul says i must drive.
2008-03-14 23:33 < Leslie_S> i was taking it easy because i had a grandfather clock in the car
2008-03-14 23:33 < Leslie_S> anyway, so im driving and all of a sudden....three fucking deer in front of me. like, about 10 feet away.
2008-03-14 23:33 < NotACow> they were fucking?
2008-03-14 23:34 < Leslie_S> ....lol.
2008-03-14 23:34 < NotACow> like that would have been pretty spiffy
2008-03-14 23:34 < NotACow> i've never seen deer fucking
2008-03-14 23:34 < Leslie_S> anyway, i had to slam the brakes really hard, to the point where i had to pull over and inspect my load.
2008-03-14 23:35 < Leslie_S> NotACow im thinking maybe i should have rented a truck, instead of a trailer. ;/
2008-03-14 23:46 < gwern> [[Fennec]]s are such cute pets
2008-03-14 23:46 < Messedrocker> FennecFoxen
2008-03-14 23:47 < Fennec> ja?
2008-03-14 23:48 < pengo> yes. we should adopt one as wikipedia's mascot
2008-03-14 23:48 < Mike_H> pengo: I say we should adopt a cute yet harmless Big Brother HouseGuest.
2008-03-14 23:49 < Mike_H> I say we pick Holly from BB5.
2008-03-14 23:49 < pengo> you would, Mike_H :/
2008-03-14 23:49 < gwern> pengo: not a bad idea
2008-03-14 23:49 < Mike_H> Yes, I would, and don't you forget it
2008-03-14 23:49 < pengo> "harmless Big Brother HouseGuest" is an oxymoron
2008-03-14 23:49 < gwern> I fear it might be confused with firefox, but on the other hand, we could emphasize those ears
2008-03-14 23:49 < Fennec> I'm not familiar with that show.
2008-03-14 23:49 < Mike_H> pengo: Holly was harmless
2008-03-14 23:50 < Fennec> for one thing, I have no television. >.>
2008-03-14 23:50 < Mike_H> however, she is pretty much the antithesis of "knowledge"
2008-03-14 23:50 < Fennec> Mike_H: ah, irony!
2008-03-14 23:50 < gwern> you can't tell me that https://secure.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/wiki/Image:VulpesZerdaScratching_cropped.jpg or https://secure.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/wiki/Image:Fennec_Fox_in_White_Desert%2C_Egypt_-_Cropped.jpg aren't devastatingly cute
2008-03-14 23:50 < gwern> yoda-cute, even
2008-03-14 23:50 < Rinn> Yoda's cute?
2008-03-14 23:51 < gwern> sure
2008-03-14 23:51 < gwern> have you never seen the yoda-lolcats?
2008-03-14 23:52 < pengo> :\
2008-03-14 23:52 < gwern> hm. lolfox
2008-03-14 23:52 * Lycurgus had a Yoda Pez. Just threw it out earlier today.
2008-03-14 23:53 < Fennec> gwern: will never take off. fox pictures are too hard to come by.
2008-03-14 23:53 < gwern> Fennec: what, and walrus pictures are incredibly common?
2008-03-14 23:53 < pengo> what this yoda lolcats thing isn't a joke?
2008-03-14 23:53 < Fennec> no. cat. :P
2008-03-14 23:54 < Fennec> anyway.

2008-03-14 23:54 < pengo> uh i mean it exists
2008-03-14 23:54 < pengo> not that it's a joke
2008-03-14 23:55 < gwern> http://icanhascheezburger.com/category/star-wars/ <-- always worth browsing

2008-03-14 23:55 < NedScott> the close tag is all messed yo
2008-03-14 23:57 * NedScott scratches his head
2008-03-14 23:58 < NedScott> alright, I can figure this out.. come on Ned.. the whole world is depending on this!
2008-03-14 23:58 < gwern> 'I can't come to bed. Someone on the Internet is *wrong*!'
2008-03-14 23:58 < NedScott> is the second half of that page isn't purple..
2008-03-14 23:59 < NedScott> is/ if
2008-03-14 23:59 < NedScott> hehe
2008-03-15 00:00 < NedScott> hmm, blockquote seems to be the problem
2008-03-15 00:04 < Fennec> http://truckbearingkibble.com/comic/2008/03/03/the-treachery-of-base-building/
2008-03-15 00:04 < NedScott> [[Template:quote]] to be specific
2008-03-15 00:05 < cimon> Fennec: hows scorpions?
2008-03-15 00:05 < gwern> Fennec: I don't know whether that's brilliant, or a juvenile parody of magritte
2008-03-15 00:06 < cimon> (on the assumption that desert dwellers like Fennecs, like to sup on scorpions)
2008-03-15 00:07 < gwern> that comic reminds a lot of Perry Bible Fellowhsip
2008-03-15 00:08 < gwern> http://truckbearingkibble.com/comic/2007/02/22/killbot-review/ <-- more than a lot, actually
2008-03-15 00:08 < cimon> That comic reminds me of the parable that Mike Resnick used to open each volume of his "Retelling the colonial history of Africa, but setting the events in outer space in the far future" -series...
2008-03-15 00:08 < cimon> let me see if wikiquote has the exact quote...
2008-03-15 00:10 < cimon> hmm no.
2008-03-15 00:10 < cimon> From memory, it goes something like this.
2008-03-15 00:11 * Mike_H selects a quote
2008-03-15 00:11 < cimon> A scorpion wants to cross the river, and asks a crocodile, if he can make the trip on its back.
2008-03-15 00:11 < Mike_H> "One time, my neighbor called the cops on me and said I was undressing in front of my window. But it was my mannequin, Madame!" -Holly, BB5
2008-03-15 00:11 < gwern> http://truckbearingkibble.com/comic/2007/07/12/battle-fighter-ii/ <-- he just can't catch a break
2008-03-15 00:11 < cimon> The crocodile says, I would let you ride on my back, but you will sting me.
2008-03-15 00:12 < cimon> The scorpion replies to the crocodile. If I prick you, I will drown myself.
2008-03-15 00:12 < gwern> I like the fox version better. crocodiles have awfully tough skin
2008-03-15 00:12 < cimon> The crocodile thinks about this, and agrees to let the scorpion ride on his back.
2008-03-15 00:13 < cimon> Midway in the stream, the scorpion stings the crocodile.
2008-03-15 00:13 < cimon> As he is about to die, the crocodile asks the scorpion, you are now going to drown. Why did you sting me?
2008-03-15 00:14 < cimon> The scorpion says. I can't help it. I am a scorpion, its just in my nature.
2008-03-15 00:14 < The359> What movie is that from?
2008-03-15 00:14 < bumm13> that almost sounds like an Anansi story :x
2008-03-15 00:15 < gwern> yeah. that old story is old as dirt
2008-03-15 00:15 < Mike_H> I liked my quote better
2008-03-15 00:15 < cimon> yes, I am aware that Mike Resnick was appropriating it.
2008-03-15 00:15 < Mike_H> "One time, my neighbor called the cops on me and said I was undressing in front of my window. But it was my mannequin, Madame!" -Holly, BB5
2008-03-15 00:16 < gwern> http://truckbearingkibble.com/comic/2008/01/18/stay-of-execution/ <-- the many difficulties of being a lego
2008-03-15 00:16 < Mike_H> 'Currently on air - Big Brother 2 Slovenia, Celebrity Big Brother 1 Croatia, Big Brother VIP1 Poland, Veliki Brat VIP2 Serbia, Big Brother 1 Albania, Big Brother 8 Brazil, Big Brother 8 Germany, Grande Fratello 8 Italy, Farma 1 Croatia, De Gouden Kooi 1 Netherlands.'
2008-03-15 00:16 < Mike_H> Oh, and Big Brother 9 in the US
2008-03-15 00:16 * bumm13 is tired and heavy...and tends to drink sugary beverages; it is in his nature
2008-03-15 00:17 < cimon> heh
2008-03-15 00:18 < Mike_H> zocky: Is that show very popular in Slovenia?
2008-03-15 00:18 < Mike_H> ThePolecat: and is it still popular in Germany?

2008-03-15 00:19 < Mike_H> in Australia
2008-03-15 00:19 < Mike_H> do you know?
2008-03-15 00:19 < brown_cat> no, I would rather spend my time on better things
2008-03-15 00:20 * brown_cat goes to play with a rubix cube
2008-03-15 00:20 < Mike_H> hmph
2008-03-15 00:21 < brown_cat> jk
2008-03-15 00:21 < brown_cat> ummm [[Big Brother Australia]] knowsa

2008-03-15 00:22 * Fennec yawns and heads abed
2008-03-15 00:23 < gwern> Fennec: that one looks too simple
2008-03-15 00:23 < gwern> the best ones play triply on pipe
2008-03-15 00:23 < gwern> http://www.threadless.com/product/543/This_is_not_a_Pipe <-- I like this one a lot
2008-03-15 00:24 < gwern> it's not a smoking pipe, it's not a normal pipe, and since it's not in a video game, it's not even a mario pipe
2008-03-15 00:24 < Fennec> nice :P
2008-03-15 00:24 < pengo> it's probably one you can't push down to go into
2008-03-15 00:26 * brown_cat facehuggles pengo
2008-03-15 00:26 * brown_cat wonders if pengo would get an iphone when it comes to australia
2008-03-15 00:31 < pengo> brown_cat: only if it flawlessly copies up all my phone numbers and i dont have to teach it that i dont want to shiv, and the sony ericsson touchscreen phone isn't 100x cheaper, and i have some other compelling reason to upgrade
2008-03-15 00:35 < mavhc> shiv?
2008-03-15 00:36 < pengo> shiv duck etc
2008-03-15 00:36 < mavhc> still no idea
2008-03-15 00:38 < pengo> ever tried using predictive text on a new phone?
2008-03-15 00:38 < pengo> http://www.5min.com/Video/How-to-Use-Text-Swearing-7208501
2008-03-15 00:40 < mavhc> I don't use my phone for things that cost me money
2008-03-15 00:41 < pengo> you can use it to write appointment reminders
2008-03-15 00:42 < mavhc> but I don't swear in those
2008-03-15 00:42 < mavhc> I have nearly used up the 20% extra free credit I got when I added credit to it the day I got it, 2.4 years ago
2008-03-15 00:44 < pengo> uh
2008-03-15 00:44 < pengo> i thought i didn't have many friends
2008-03-15 00:45 < mavhc> did it turn out you did?
2008-03-15 00:45 < pengo> well no.. but i still manage to make some calls once in a while
2008-03-15 00:46 < mavhc> internet is free
2008-03-15 00:46 < pengo> i suppose you have internet everywhere or never leave your house
2008-03-15 00:47 < mavhc> yep
2008-03-15 00:50 < mavhc> SMS's cost 12 times more than NASA pays to get, and process, data from Hubble
2008-03-15 00:51 < pengo> omg!
2008-03-15 00:51 < pengo> but my phone was cheaper than hubble
2008-03-15 00:52 < mavhc> wasn't an iphone then
2008-03-15 00:53 < pengo> ...no
2008-03-15 00:54 < pengo> someone came across my flickr photos by googling for "homemade time machine for you camera"
2008-03-15 01:01 < mavhc> were they really looking for time lapse?
2008-03-15 01:01 < Demi> i was thinking "something to add timestamps" myself
2008-03-15 01:02 < Demi> ah, or maybe a "homemade timer machine"?
2008-03-15 01:03 < pengo> well they came across my homemade time machine http://www.flickr.com/photos/pengo-au/2064424577/
2008-03-15 01:05 < ThePolecat> meh, its disturbing that even owners know what you googled
2008-03-15 01:05 < mavhc> only if you don't turn off referers
2008-03-15 01:05 < ThePolecat> as a googler
2008-03-15 01:05 < ThePolecat> ?
2008-03-15 01:06 < ThePolecat> I guess you can set up traps that way by tagging your blog post with lurid potential search terms
2008-03-15 01:06 < pengo> flickr hides IP
2008-03-15 01:06 < ThePolecat> heh, fair
2008-03-15 01:08 < ThePolecat> hiding them still means it potentially has them
2008-03-15 01:08 < ThePolecat> but ay
2008-03-15 01:08 < ThePolecat> brb
2008-03-15 01:09 < mavhc> I used to read the logs, then work out the email address of people downloading my software, and email them

2008-03-15 01:13 < pengo> mavhc: then you get all my compliments

2008-03-15 01:16 < ThePolecat> yay, eLibrary Austria uses mediawiki
2008-03-15 01:16 < ThePolecat> :-D

2008-03-15 01:20 < ThePolecat> yea, just looking
2008-03-15 01:24 < stefano-gone> is there a way to put my age on my user page without having to update it manually?

2008-03-15 01:47 < Chrisgrant> my clock's fast(I think)
2008-03-15 01:47 < cimon> but soon we spring forward.
2008-03-15 01:47 < Mike_H> cimon: Oh, we're only six hours behind Finland now
2008-03-15 01:47 < Mike_H> I forgot
2008-03-15 01:48 < stefano-gone> I'm going to program a clock that has only 23 hours and call it Racing Clock
2008-03-15 01:48 < stefano-gone> very fast
2008-03-15 01:48 < Mike_H> and only four behind the UK
2008-03-15 01:48 < cimon> well, technically it was 8:46 when I typed that, but I rounded up.
2008-03-15 01:48 < stefano-gone> plus 0.8 secs lag from the freenode server
2008-03-15 01:49 < stefano-gone> does anyone still use internet-time?
2008-03-15 01:49 < stefano-gone> :O
2008-03-15 01:49 < Chrisgrant> it's 06:49 UTC
2008-03-15 01:50 < Mike_H> cimon: I thought Finland was on Moscow Time
2008-03-15 01:50 < Chrisgrant> Any one here played Super Tux?
2008-03-15 01:50 < ggreer> finland would never agree to anything with moscow in the name
2008-03-15 01:51 < cimon> I think finland would probably not agree to anything with cow in the name
2008-03-15 01:52 < cimon> we take our heifers serious. not like the indians perhaps, but still farming is pretty big
2008-03-15 01:53 < ggreer> cimon: you take your russian invasions seriously as well
2008-03-15 01:54 < stefano-gone> the current time is @329
2008-03-15 01:55 < ggreer> we should use metric time, but not change the length of an hour
2008-03-15 01:55 < ggreer> and have 100 hours in every day
2008-03-15 01:55 < cimon> ggreer, not really, atm, people are hardly batting an eyebrow with the super-rich russians buying cottages here in finland, for their holidays... a few letters to the editor, but nothing remotely heavier...
2008-03-15 01:55 < stefano-gone> its stupid
2008-03-15 01:56 < cimon> But we can hardly complain, with chelsea...
2008-03-15 01:56 < ggreer> cimon: I was referencing the winter war, but whatever
2008-03-15 01:56 < cimon> nevermind
2008-03-15 01:59 < dshocker> hi
2008-03-15 01:59 < dshocker> i heard u guys were hackers
2008-03-15 02:00 < ggreer> ssh, don't tell anyone
2008-03-15 02:00 < zero1328> If you mean "hacker" as in a malicious user who invades computers... maybe.
2008-03-15 02:01 < zero1328> If you mean "hacker" as highly skilled computer user, uh, I usually assme most IRCers are.
2008-03-15 02:01 < ggreer> hah, you're no fun
2008-03-15 02:01 < dshocker> cool
2008-03-15 02:01 < lyn[x]> i found a hole in wikipedia
2008-03-15 02:02 < lyn[x]> a exploit
2008-03-15 02:02 < dshocker> me too
2008-03-15 02:02 < dshocker> its called
2008-03-15 02:02 < lyn[x]> it allows me to change anything
2008-03-15 02:02 < dshocker> ddos
2008-03-15 02:02 < lyn[x]> i want
2008-03-15 02:02 < dshocker> o
2008-03-15 02:02 < dshocker> LOOL
2008-03-15 02:02 < dshocker> LOL
2008-03-15 02:02 < dshocker> @ROFL
2008-03-15 02:02 < dshocker> ROFL
2008-03-15 02:02 < dshocker> LOL
2008-03-15 02:04 < Chrisgrant> and all was slient
2008-03-15 02:06 < Chrisgrant> for some reason my school's filtering system blocks Microsoft Windows
2008-03-15 02:08 < ggreer> that makes no sense
2008-03-15 02:11 < mavhc> block what about it?
2008-03-15 02:11 < Chrisgrant> It blocks the wikipedia article
2008-03-15 02:12 < ggreer> so your school blocks wikipedia
2008-03-15 02:12 < ggreer> not windows
2008-03-15 02:13 < Chrisgrant> just articles on Microsoft and the holocaust
2008-03-15 02:13 < Chrisgrant> No joke
2008-03-15 02:13 < mavhc> complain then
2008-03-15 02:14 < SQLDb> LOL
2008-03-15 02:15 < Chrisgrant> school doesn't recognize wikipedia as a reliable source
2008-03-15 02:15 < AdamBishop> well, it's not.
2008-03-15 02:15 < Chrisgrant> its still useful
2008-03-15 02:15 < mavhc> Chrisgrant: so the school also blocks 99.9998% of the internet?
2008-03-15 02:15 < SQLDb> I wonder why they'd block access to MS articles... Maybe they had a vandalism problem in the past, and found that the easiest way to keep folks off of those articles
2008-03-15 02:16 < Chrisgrant> na its the software reacting to the halo links
2008-03-15 02:16 < SQLDb> ahh
2008-03-15 02:17 < mavhc> automated filtering sucks
2008-03-15 02:17 < SQLDb> mavhc: indeed. I was using havd here, to filter http for viruses, and, all it wound up doing was slowing everyone's internet way down :(
2008-03-15 02:17 < SQLDb> err, havp
2008-03-15 02:18 < mavhc> I work in a school, the school isp runs netsweeper, which thinks any site with ads for match making sites are match making sites
2008-03-15 02:18 < SQLDb> hehe. Far too much time on my hands :P http://tools.wikimedia.de/~sql/sqlbot.php
2008-03-15 02:18 < SQLDb> mavhc: Squid+adzapper works really well for that
2008-03-15 02:19 < mavhc> but it would have to run upstream of the isp
2008-03-15 02:19 < SQLDb> it takes out just about all js / pic ads, speeds up pageloads nicely as a result :)
2008-03-15 02:19 < SQLDb> ahh, yeah
2008-03-15 02:19 < SQLDb> *shrug* I use a transparent proxy here, at the exit point
2008-03-15 02:20 < mavhc> I just rdp to my home computer
2008-03-15 02:21 < SQLDb> heh, that works well too :)
2008-03-15 02:22 < mavhc> I am the sysadmin, I could unblock the sites, but it takes ages
2008-03-15 02:26 < Mike_H> <Mike_H> I love the dioceses in the South
2008-03-15 02:26 < Mike_H> <Mike_H> they're so weirdly named
2008-03-15 02:26 < Mike_H> <Mike_H> "Pensacola-Tallahassee"
2008-03-15 02:26 < Mike_H> <Mike_H> It's better than calling it "The Roman Catholic Diocese of That Trashy Part of Florida Nobody Cares About"
2008-03-15 02:28 < Chrisgrant> Who wants a free mediawiki wiki?
2008-03-15 02:33 < Chrisgrant> all the more for me then
2008-03-15 02:33 < cimon> I love it how if your quotation is from a really old source, even a trivial mention about a place is deemed worthy of encyclopaedic note...
2008-03-15 02:34 < cimon> Cool how the Irish have always been big on genealogies, like the jewish...
2008-03-15 02:36 < cimon> I suppose it was the shibboleth there. If you couldn't list the ancestors of some person, when a third person asked you about him, you weren't really more than a surface acquaintance of htem...

2008-03-15 03:46 < vaguerant> Hey weirdos.
2008-03-15 03:46 < Chrisgrant> been called that before
2008-03-15 03:46 < vaguerant> I don't really ... wait, isn't Chris Grant a footballer?
2008-03-15 03:46 < Chrisgrant> yes
2008-03-15 03:46 < Chrisgrant> we share the same name
2008-03-15 03:47 < vaguerant> I don't really care about birds or anything, but some editor is kind of weirding up a bunch of cockatoo-related articles.
2008-03-15 03:47 < vaguerant> And I'm not interested enough to {{sofixit}}.
2008-03-15 03:47 < vaguerant> So if anyone wants to, the editor's contributions are here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Contributions/Chet_Womach
2008-03-15 03:48 < vaguerant> Have fun.
