2008-04-11 20:22 < quanticle> Personal record, that is...
2008-04-11 20:23 * TheWeasel sucks at most computer games and usually just lets the engines play each other for research
2008-04-11 20:23 < nokmar> lol quanticle
2008-04-11 20:23 < quanticle> TheWeasel: Nethack isn't hard in the sense that it requires analytical thinking or reflexes, but there's a lot to remember.
2008-04-11 20:23 < nokmar> never gotten to the fork?
2008-04-11 20:23 < TheWeasel> I've been reasonably good at "slow games" like Civ
2008-04-11 20:23 < quanticle> nokmar: The fork? You mean the fork to the mines?
2008-04-11 20:24 < nokmar> yes
2008-04-11 20:24 < quanticle> TheWeasel: Nethack is turn based.
2008-04-11 20:24 < TheWeasel> yea
2008-04-11 20:24 < quanticle> nokmar: Yep. All the time. In fact, I died in the mines, this time
2008-04-11 20:24 < TheWeasel> I dunno. I'm just generally inept.
2008-04-11 20:24 < nokmar> "you fell down the stairs, and the carcass landed on you."
2008-04-11 20:24 < nokmar> you died.
2008-04-11 20:24 < Leslie_S> wtf
2008-04-11 20:25 < Leslie_S> my roommate put an energy drink in the freezer to the point where it froze solid
2008-04-11 20:25 < Leslie_S> lol
2008-04-11 20:25 < TheWeasel> Carcasses are heavy.
2008-04-11 20:25 < quanticle> nokmar: Heh. At least it wasn't a cockatrice carcass...
2008-04-11 20:25 < TheWeasel> energy sherbert!
2008-04-11 20:25 < quanticle> nokmar: Those petrify you when you fall on them.
2008-04-11 20:25 < quanticle> TheWeasel: Mmmm, high caffeine slushy....
2008-04-11 20:26 < TheWeasel> hah, yup.
2008-04-11 20:26 < nokmar> who said it wasn't a cockatrice corpse?
2008-04-11 20:26 < quanticle> nokmar: Heh.
2008-04-11 20:26 < nokmar> if you're flying, you're ok though.
2008-04-11 20:26 * quanticle doesn't pick up cockatrice carcasses for that very reason.
2008-04-11 20:27 < quanticle> nokmar: Yeah. In my last game, I put on a cursed set of levitation boots. I couldn't go down stairs anymore.
2008-04-11 20:27 < TheWeasel> Pet-uh-ri-fi-hi-hied
2008-04-11 20:27 < nokmar> well, cockatrice is awesome.
2008-04-11 20:27 < nokmar> use it as a weapon for max awesome.
2008-04-11 20:28 < TheWeasel> if you're sure it's on your side...
2008-04-11 20:28 < gwern> 'Yacht prices have gone up so far so fast that they’re bound to settle down. Last year, it cost more to buy a used yacht than it did to build a new one, because of buyers’ need for instant gratification. Yacht flipping became the new house flipping, with buyers selling boats for millions in profits before the vessels were even built.'
2008-04-11 20:28 < quanticle> nokmar: Heh. No kidding. I recall the last time I beat them was by 1) sacrificing my pet by waiting for it to attack them, and then throwing lots of stuff at them.
2008-04-11 20:28 < quanticle> gwern: Yacht bubble collapse in 3... 2... 1...
2008-04-11 20:28 < Golbez> gwern- ... next they'll be selling yacht bulbs
2008-04-11 20:29 < gwern> quanticle: I hope you had a shovel!
2008-04-11 20:29 < quanticle> Golbez: Yeah, or yacht.com
2008-04-11 20:29 < Golbez> "In 1623, a single bulb of a famous tulip variety could cost as much as a thousand Dutch florins (the average yearly income at the time was 150 florins)."
2008-04-11 20:29 < quanticle> gwern: A shovel? What for?
2008-04-11 20:30 < gwern> quanticle: so you could dig down a level instead of using the stairs
2008-04-11 20:30 < quanticle> gwern: Ah. That wasn't me. That was nokmar who died by falling down stairs.
2008-04-11 20:30 < gwern> Golbez: well, if there's a yacht bubble, the other 99% of us really couldn't care
2008-04-11 20:30 < nokmar> falling down stairs with a cockatrice corpse
2008-04-11 20:31 < nokmar> seriously, you should pick it up though
2008-04-11 20:31 < nokmar> as long as you know what not to do, it's extremely awesome
2008-04-11 20:31 < quanticle> gwern: I died more conventionally. I was killed by a Chief Watchman on level 8 of the mines.
2008-04-11 20:32 < quanticle> nokmar: Heh. Let that be a lesson about going across stairs while Burdened or Stressed
2008-04-11 20:32 < Golbez> the main fear is soldier ants
2008-04-11 20:32 < Golbez> those fuckers are evil
2008-04-11 20:32 < gwern> the mines could be difficult. so many missile attacks
2008-04-11 20:32 < gwern> Golbez: Go Team Ant!
2008-04-11 20:32 < Golbez> TEAM ANT
2008-04-11 20:33 < Golbez> I've never won. I've gotten to the Celestial Plane once.
2008-04-11 20:33 < quanticle> Golbez: Not really. I took out four or five soldier ants on level 6. Killer bees can be a concern, but I was poison resistant (being an Orc), so even that wasn't so bad.
2008-04-11 20:34 < Golbez> lately i've been playing as an elfin wizard
2008-04-11 20:35 < gwern> I've always been terrible at nethack. the controls have always felt too unnatural for me to play
2008-04-11 20:35 < gwern> the hjkl stuff was the pits, and the numpad option didn't help
2008-04-11 20:35 < quanticle> Golbez: That's one of the hard race/class combinations. Elves have a low strength cap, and they don't get very many hitpoints. The wizard class allows you to cast spells and boosts the elf's already ridiculous magic skills, but you lose the ability to wear anything heavier than leather armor.
2008-04-11 20:36 < quanticle> gwern: I don't know. I found the controls unnatural too, at first, but I've grown used to them.
2008-04-11 20:36 < quanticle> gwern: Perhaps its because I'm a native vi user.
2008-04-11 20:36 < gwern> quanticle: that would help
2008-04-11 20:36 < White_Cat> gwern do you think you can help?
2008-04-11 20:37 < gwern> it wasn't too bad when I played it through emacs's nethack-lisp interface, but I've never managed to install it since
2008-04-11 20:37 < gwern> White_Cat: with what?
2008-04-11 20:37 < quanticle> Golbez: I've heard that the best character for a n00b like me is a dwarven valkyrie, or an orc barbarian. I take the barbarian role because I get to be chaotic, rather than lawful.
2008-04-11 20:37 < White_Cat> image rename
2008-04-11 20:38 < gwern> quanticle: I always favored human samurai starting out. good bow and sword
2008-04-11 20:38 < quanticle> The main issue I have with the mines is that, after the second level they're always dark. Its really annoying, even if you have a character with infravision.
2008-04-11 20:38 < quanticle> gwern: I almost never play human, because humans don't have innate infravision.
2008-04-11 20:38 < gwern> quanticle: reasonable
2008-04-11 20:39 < gwern> although by the time I hit the mines, I usually have a lamp or something
2008-04-11 20:39 < quanticle> gwern: Really? I get into the mines around level 2 or 3, so I don't usually find a lamp by then.
2008-04-11 20:40 < gwern> https://secure.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/w/index.php?title=Talk:Arcology&curid=1461720&diff=204983090&oldid=204876082 <-- my eyes!
2008-04-11 20:40 < quanticle> The other nice thing about being an Orc barbarian is that you actually have a reasonably high dexterity, so you're decent with ranged weapons.
2008-04-11 20:40 < gwern> quanticle: well sure. their archers killed boromir
2008-04-11 20:40 < quanticle> gwern: True enough.
2008-04-11 20:40 < gwern> You do not simply slash into Mordor!
2008-04-11 20:41 < Mike_H> <NewsWire> Earthquake: EQ 7.5 Macquarie Island, Australia - PRELIMINARY REPORT - http://earthquake.usgs.gov/eqcenter/catalogs/cap/at00796021
2008-04-11 20:41 < quanticle> gwern: I don't get it. What's the issue with the page that you linked?
2008-04-11 20:41 < TheWeasel> Does anybody live on Macquarie?
2008-04-11 20:41 < Enterprise_Cat> OMG Mike_H has script
2008-04-11 20:41 < gwern> quanticle: look at the comment the person added
2008-04-11 20:41 < Werdna> whoa
2008-04-11 20:41 < gwern> TheWeasel: of course not. it's a madeup place
2008-04-11 20:42 < gwern> everyone knows that
2008-04-11 20:42 < TheWeasel> It's not in the USA! USA!
2008-04-11 20:42 < TheWeasel> so it must be fictional.
2008-04-11 20:42 < Mike_H> The Australian Antarctic Division (AAD) maintains a permanent base on the island. The base's residents, the island's only inhabitants, range in numbers from 20 to 40 people throughout the year.
2008-04-11 20:42 < TheWeasel> Okay, that's what I thought.
2008-04-11 20:42 < Golbez> quanticle- i enjoy being able to learn Identify. :>
2008-04-11 20:42 < gwern> TheWeasel: yes. Like Dijibouti, or the Congo
2008-04-11 20:42 < quanticle> gwern: So why is this dude backgrounding all of his comments in green?
2008-04-11 20:43 < Mike_H> gwern: There are two Congos.
2008-04-11 20:43 < quanticle> Golbez: That is certainly a useful ability.
2008-04-11 20:43 < Mike_H> Shocker, I know.
2008-04-11 20:43 < Golbez> some of us prefer Zaire.
2008-04-11 20:43 < TheWeasel> Some of us who are not Laurent Kabila.
2008-04-11 20:43 < quanticle> Mike_H: Well, it depends. The Democratic Republic of the Congo occasionally switches its name to Zaire
2008-04-11 20:43 < gwern> quanticle: I have no idea. hurts my eyes tho
2008-04-11 20:43 < Golbez> Mike_H- USGS says 7.2
2008-04-11 20:43 < quanticle> TheWeasel: True.
2008-04-11 20:43 < Mike_H> Golbez: Originally it was 7.5.
2008-04-11 20:44 < quanticle> gwern: Really? It doesn't look so bad on my monitorn.
2008-04-11 20:44 < quanticle> *monitor
2008-04-11 20:44 * Golbez nods
2008-04-11 20:44 < Mike_H> Golbez: NewsWire hasn't processed the 7.2 notice yet.
2008-04-11 20:44 < Golbez> nothing from the PTWC about it
2008-04-11 20:44 < gwern> quanticle: I use a green and black color scheme...
2008-04-11 20:44 < gwern> White_Cat: images can't be renamed yet, as I understood
2008-04-11 20:45 < quanticle> gwern: For wiki?
2008-04-11 20:45 < White_Cat> needs to be done manualy
2008-04-11 20:45 < White_Cat> relinking every instance
2008-04-11 20:45 < gwern> quite
2008-04-11 20:45 < gwern> the bug report has seen some activity though
2008-04-11 20:45 < gwern> so perhaps it'll be fixed this year
2008-04-11 20:46 < quanticle> gwern: Ah. I see why that'd be disconcerting now. I guess he's assuming that everyone is using the same color scheme.
2008-04-11 20:46 < Mike_H> EVALUATION
2008-04-11 20:46 < Mike_H> THIS EARTHQUAKE IS LOCATED OUTSIDE THE PACIFIC. NO TSUNAMI THREAT
2008-04-11 20:46 < Mike_H> EXISTS TO COASTLINES IN THE PACIFIC.
2008-04-11 20:46 < Mike_H> Golbez: It's up now.
2008-04-11 20:47 < Golbez> woot
2008-04-11 20:47 < Golbez> pff, MacQuarie is in the Pacific!
2008-04-11 20:48 < Mike_H> Golbez: Probably out of the PTWC jurisdiction
2008-04-11 20:49 < Golbez> USGS now has 7.3 as the non-prelim magnitude
2008-04-11 20:49 < Golbez> very shallow quake too, only 10km
2008-04-11 20:54 < Mike_H> Gracenotes: You're nothing...but a glamour puss in hot-bottomed head tilt and cocoa fist!
2008-04-11 20:55 < Gracenotes> D:
2008-04-11 20:55 < Leslie_S> WTF
2008-04-11 20:55 < Leslie_S> my DSL died
2008-04-11 20:55 < Mike_H> Gracenotes: Only I wear red
2008-04-11 20:55 < Mike_H> and black
2008-04-11 20:55 < Mike_H> and red.
2008-04-11 20:58 < Scream> http://blog.wikimedia.org

2008-04-11 21:00 * Gracenotes thinks that playing a "bad girl" has gone to Mike_H's head
2008-04-11 21:02 * TheWeasel rolls back in
2008-04-11 21:03 < Jonathunder> did they redo the access list for the admin chan?
2008-04-11 21:03 * TheWeasel wonders where he's last seen a book printed in Bodoni
2008-04-11 21:03 * TheWeasel remembers
2008-04-11 21:04 < TheWeasel> it's been ten years, book was called Der Wunschpunsch

2008-04-11 21:09 < TheWeasel> yep
2008-04-11 21:09 < snowolf> Enterprise_Cat: without a S :)
2008-04-11 21:09 < Enterprise_Cat> snowolf: oh
2008-04-11 21:10 * quanticle hugs Krimpet
2008-04-11 21:11 < Krimpet> 'evening :)
2008-04-11 21:11 < quanticle> Good evening to you too. :)
2008-04-11 21:11 < snowolf> eila' quanticle
2008-04-11 21:11 < quanticle> Hello snowolf
2008-04-11 21:12 * quanticle wonders if there's a #nethack on Freenode.
2008-04-11 21:12 < quanticle> Sweet.
2008-04-11 21:12 < quanticle> There is.
2008-04-11 21:13 < quanticle> Heh. Why did you leave Enterprise_Cat?
2008-04-11 21:13 < Enterprise_Cat> quanticle: Cause there's no reason for me to be in their
2008-04-11 21:14 < quanticle> Enterprise_Cat: True enough.
2008-04-11 21:14 < gwern> quanticle: Enterprise_Cat had to boldly go where no #wikipedian had gone before
2008-04-11 21:14 < Enterprise_Cat> heh
2008-04-11 21:14 < quanticle> gwern: #nethack?
2008-04-11 21:15 < quanticle> gwern: I'm quite surprised at the lack of overlap between the #wikipedia* channels and the other channels on Freenode.
2008-04-11 21:15 < gwern> quanticle: wikipedians are too busy to play games.
2008-04-11 21:16 < gwern> or wikipedia is our game; the formulation is equivalent...
2008-04-11 21:16 < quanticle> gwern: True enough, I guess.
2008-04-11 21:16 < Golbez> aww
2008-04-11 21:16 < Golbez> sark isn't a feudal state anymore
2008-04-11 21:16 < quanticle> Sark?
2008-04-11 21:17 < Golbez> One of the Channel Islands, part of the bailiwick of Guernsey
2008-04-11 21:17 < Golbez> it was the last fiefdom in Europe
2008-04-11 21:17 < gwern> "You can win with a long weapon, and yet you can also win with a short weapon. In short, the Way of the Ichi school is the spirit of winning, whatever the weapon and whatever its size."
2008-04-11 21:17 < gwern> Golbez: who was it a fief of?
2008-04-11 21:18 < Golbez> the Seigneur
2008-04-11 21:18 < Golbez> [[List of Seigneurs of Sark]]
2008-04-11 21:19 < gwern> 'The Seigneur retained the sole right on the island to keep pigeons and until recently was the only person allowed to keep an unspayed female dog' <-- one way to keep the dog pop down
2008-04-11 21:20 < gwern> 'In 1991 an unemployed French nuclear physicist named André Gardes attempted a singlehanded invasion of Sark, armed with a semi-automatic weapon. He was arrested by the Island's police officer (who at the time was Little Sark farmer Philip Perrée Jnr) while sitting on a bench, changing the gun's magazine.'
2008-04-11 21:21 < Golbez> heh
2008-04-11 21:21 < quanticle> gwern: Heh.
2008-04-11 21:21 < quanticle> That's awesome
2008-04-11 21:21 < TheWeasel> Sark is a good place to pay taxes.
2008-04-11 21:21 < gwern> 'Subsequently, the brothers have continued to challenge Sark's constitutional reform purportedly in favour of greater democracy. The more cynically minded may think the reform would actually be directed at taking control of the little island.'
2008-04-11 21:24 < enok|walker> hay gang
2008-04-11 21:31 < TheWeasel> I'm outta 'ere.
2008-04-11 21:31 < TheWeasel> night
2008-04-11 21:44 < ST47> Bloody brilliant.
2008-04-11 21:45 < snowolf> uh?
2008-04-11 21:45 < ST47> Microsoft, I love you.
2008-04-11 21:45 < snowolf> O.o
2008-04-11 21:45 < ST47> Thank you so much for blowing up my computer.
2008-04-11 21:45 < snowolf> ahahahahah :)
2008-04-11 21:45 < ST47> And then refusing to give me any information whatsoever.
2008-04-11 21:46 < ST47> Your "ERR_PAGING_FAILIRE_IN_NONPAGING_AREA" was enough information for me to solve the problem.
2008-04-11 21:46 < ST47> In addition to your most helpful 'knowledge base' article on the error, of course.
2008-04-11 21:47 < ST47> Also, thank you for providing to me helpful tools which I could use, such as memtest86, to diagnose the problem.
2008-04-11 21:47 < gwern> whew! Florence ripped Brion a new one on foundation-l
2008-04-11 21:47 < gwern> (over the past year, I've come to like florence a lot more)
2008-04-11 21:47 < ST47> (Memtest86 is on my ubuntu CD. It's not on my windows CD. Also, my windows 'diagnostic tools' are utter crap)
2008-04-11 21:48 < ST47> Ooh, drama on foundation-l
2008-04-11 21:48 < ST47> Which thread?
2008-04-11 21:48 < Messedrocker> gwern, in the Wikipediopera, Florence is the Good Princess
2008-04-11 21:49 < ST47> Oh, there it is
2008-04-11 21:49 < gwern> ST47: the one I commented in, and so am glad flo is indirectly taking my side
2008-04-11 21:49 < gwern> Messedrocker: interesting. so who's the bad stepsisters?
2008-04-11 21:50 < Messedrocker> *shrug*
2008-04-11 21:51 < arcimboldo_> So Jimbo is Wodan?
2008-04-11 21:52 < gwern> arcimboldo_: I moot you're mixing your milieus
2008-04-11 21:52 < arcimboldo_> And Florence, Sue etc. the Walküre the Valkyrie
2008-04-11 21:52 < Messedrocker> Jimbo is Evil Captain Jimbeard
2008-04-11 21:53 < Messedrocker> http://voice-of-resolution.blogspot.com
2008-04-11 21:53 < Messedrocker> ctrl-f for Evil Captain Jimbeard
2008-04-11 21:53 < arcimboldo_> Who is Siegfried?
2008-04-11 21:54 < gwern> Brion could be the dwarf
2008-04-11 21:54 < gwern> good ol' mime
2008-04-11 21:55 * arcimboldo_ wonders whether Larry Sanger is Siegfried
2008-04-11 21:57 < Messedrocker> hmm
2008-04-11 21:57 < Messedrocker> I would put Sanger as the estranged brother
2008-04-11 22:01 < Messedrocker> they separate at the end of Act I
2008-04-11 22:02 < gwern> makes sense, but Brion/Sanger can't really be considered brother dwarves
2008-04-11 22:03 < p858snake> anyone in here commonly involved in/on csi articles?
2008-04-11 22:03 < gwern> unless Sanger handled the technical side at some point?
2008-04-11 22:03 < Messedrocker> who says Brion and Sanger are brothers?
2008-04-11 22:03 < Messedrocker> i am saying Sanger is the estranged brother of Jimmy?
2008-04-11 22:04 < enok|walker> what
2008-04-11 22:04 < gwern> I said Brion makes sense as Mime
2008-04-11 22:04 < gwern> and then you said Sanger would make sense as the estranged brother [of Mime]
2008-04-11 22:04 < gwern> and I objected that it u=hurts the analogy to pair Brion and Sanger, but Jimo doesn't make sense as Mime either
2008-04-11 22:05 < gwern> capische?
2008-04-11 22:05 < Messedrocker> i screwed up with my antecedents
2008-04-11 22:05 < Messedrocker> i meant to write that sanger in the wikipediopera is the estranged brother of jimmy

2008-04-11 22:18 < ericlsx> So how you look at 3.14 in Tibet?
2008-04-11 22:18 < Not_the_NSA> ericlsx: huh?
2008-04-11 22:19 < ericlsx> The Tibet
2008-04-11 22:19 < ericlsx> you opinion
2008-04-11 22:19 < Gracenotes> I have 51 MB left on my hard drive. I'm screwed :|
2008-04-11 22:19 < Not_the_NSA> ericlsx: about Tibet?
2008-04-11 22:19 < ericlsx> yes
2008-04-11 22:19 < Not_the_NSA> Gracenotes: lol how big is it?
2008-04-11 22:19 < Messedrocker> Gracenotes, I once had 0 bytes left on it
2008-04-11 22:19 < ericlsx> Lol
2008-04-11 22:19 < Not_the_NSA> Messedrocker: O_o
2008-04-11 22:20 < Not_the_NSA> but temp internet files and whatever....you must've not been able to do anything
2008-04-11 22:20 < Not_the_NSA> otherwise you would get temp internet files
2008-04-11 22:20 < Not_the_NSA> O_O
2008-04-11 22:20 < ericlsx> temp file and temp internet files
2008-04-11 22:20 < ericlsx> pagefile
2008-04-11 22:21 < gwern> Not_the_NSA: it's possible, but much easier under linux
2008-04-11 22:21 < Gracenotes> Messedrocker: my computer gets really slow when memory is low
2008-04-11 22:21 < Not_the_NSA> gwern: I see O_o
2008-04-11 22:21 < Not_the_NSA> Gracenotes: You must be the only one that happens to O_o
2008-04-11 22:21 < gwern> Not_the_NSA: it's actually useful for optimizing - because disk IO is so slow, it's nice to truly find out where your apps and scripts are using RW disk
2008-04-11 22:21 < gwern> Not_the_NSA: you can modify them to do stuff in-memory or in something like /tmp which is often in-core
2008-04-11 22:22 < Not_the_NSA> gwern: I'm not much of a person to understand this o_O
2008-04-11 22:22 * Not_the_NSA doesn't run linux either
2008-04-11 22:22 * Not_the_NSA runs Messedrocker OS
2008-04-11 22:22 < Gracenotes> well, this computer has 512 MB RAM, but I often use more than that. I assume the hard drive "stores" the extra memory
2008-04-11 22:22 < apan> OMG! "#wikipedia-en-admins unable to join channel (invite only)" so there realy is a conspiracy! Now, if I only had a way of matching irc-usernames to wikipedia-admins!
2008-04-11 22:23 < ericlsx> you need to move pagefile to outher driver
2008-04-11 22:23 < Gracenotes> yeah. I'm a bit resource-limited at the moment...
2008-04-11 22:23 < Messedrocker> Not_the_NSA, are you sure? In order to run MessedRocker OS you need to use my special 29-bit processor
2008-04-11 22:23 < Messedrocker> called the Zoolog Z81
2008-04-11 22:23 < Not_the_NSA> XD
2008-04-11 22:24 < Gracenotes> 29 bit? D:
2008-04-11 22:24 < Not_the_NSA> Messedrocker: I run your limited edition 29.01029569 bit processor
2008-04-11 22:24 < gwern> Gracenotes: 512mb? that's terrible
2008-04-11 22:24 < Gracenotes> I'm aware.
2008-04-11 22:24 * Not_the_NSA has 3GB
2008-04-11 22:24 * Not_the_NSA <3 MessedRocker OS
2008-04-11 22:24 < Gracenotes> this computer dates back to 2003, at least
2008-04-11 22:24 < gwern> seriously, go out and work at a fastfood job for like a day or 3 and you'll be able to get yourself a good 4gigs or so
2008-04-11 22:24 < ericlsx> My office PC get 256MB
2008-04-11 22:24 < ericlsx> haha
2008-04-11 22:25 < Messedrocker> Gracenotes, yes, the 29-bit processor.
2008-04-11 22:25 < Not_the_NSA> ericlsx: what country are you from?
2008-04-11 22:25 < ericlsx> china
2008-04-11 22:25 < Messedrocker> I couldn't MAKE a 32-bit processor because TPTB would SHUT ME DOWN!
2008-04-11 22:25 < Gracenotes> gwern: heh. Now, if only there was a fast food place less than 15 miles away from where I live, or I had a car...
2008-04-11 22:25 < Not_the_NSA> ericlsx: how'd you bypass the great firewall? O_O
2008-04-11 22:25 * Not_the_NSA gives Messedrocker 3 bits and glues it on to the other one
2008-04-11 22:25 < ericlsx> nothing
2008-04-11 22:25 < gwern> Gracenotes: hell, whore yourself out to one fat lady for cheap and you'd be able to afford a better computer!
2008-04-11 22:26 < Not_the_NSA> ericlsx: huh?
2008-04-11 22:26 < Not_the_NSA> gwern: XD
2008-04-11 22:26 * gwern goes to walk a dog
2008-04-11 22:26 < ericlsx> I haven't do anything
2008-04-11 22:26 < Not_the_NSA> gwern: your dog O_o
2008-04-11 22:26 < Not_the_NSA> ?
2008-04-11 22:26 < Gracenotes> gwern: questionable legality there
2008-04-11 22:26 < Gracenotes> a la statuatory rape
2008-04-11 22:26 < Not_the_NSA> Gracenotes: unless you live in a Nevada brothel
2008-04-11 22:26 < ericlsx> sorry for my poor english
2008-04-11 22:26 < Gracenotes> or the UK.
2008-04-11 22:26 < Gracenotes> either way, I'll get a laptop w/ linux when I go to college
2008-04-11 22:26 < Not_the_NSA> Gracenotes: they're legal there?
2008-04-11 22:27 < Gracenotes> 16+ is.
2008-04-11 22:27 < Messedrocker> HOLY SHIT MMKAY!
2008-04-11 22:27 * Not_the_NSA gets a laptop with MessedRocker OS
2008-04-11 22:27 < Gracenotes> probably debian, or fedora.
2008-04-11 22:27 < Gracenotes> Messedrocker: huggles 2 u
2008-04-11 22:27 < Gracenotes> wow, now I have 1.08 GB free, and I have no idea what I did
2008-04-11 22:27 < Messedrocker> Not_the_NSA, the one laptop with the 29-bit processor that runs MessedRocker OS costs $10,000. I can charge that much because I have a monopoly on computers that can run MessedRocker OS.
2008-04-11 22:28 < Gracenotes> maybe emptying Norton's "protected files" bin?
2008-04-11 22:28 < Not_the_NSA> Messedrocker: XD
2008-04-11 22:29 < Not_the_NSA> Gracenotes: how many GB is the hdd?
2008-04-11 22:29 < Messedrocker> Other than its idiosyncratic processor preference, MessedRocker OS is years ahead of its time.
2008-04-11 22:29 < ericlsx> MessedRocker OS? I have never heared about this OS.
2008-04-11 22:29 < Gracenotes> Not_the_NSA: 40.
2008-04-11 22:29 < Gracenotes> I have no doubt that 5-10 GB is taken up by my mother's bloated .docs
2008-04-11 22:29 < Not_the_NSA> Gracenotes: why bloated?
2008-04-11 22:30 < Gracenotes> Not_the_NSA: likely.
2008-04-11 22:31 < Not_the_NSA> Gracenotes: why?
2008-04-11 22:31 < Not_the_NSA> files ar epretty small
2008-04-11 22:31 * Not_the_NSA 's files probably take up .5 GB
2008-04-11 22:31 < Gracenotes> she likely has a huge custom dictionary (which naturally accumulates from years of Word use), imbeds images in files, etc.
2008-04-11 22:31 < Gracenotes> and just the fact that there are hundreds of documents
2008-04-11 22:34 < Gracenotes> lemme see, Program Files takes up 10 GB...
2008-04-11 22:36 * Messedrocker has 7.42GB left on this hard drive
2008-04-11 22:37 < Messedrocker> the number oscillates though but that's probably due to swap
2008-04-11 22:37 < Trading_Cat> meh
2008-04-11 22:37 < ericlsx> my laptop: C for system 2.6GB, D for programme 2.8GB, E for music 5.1GB F for temp files
2008-04-11 22:38 < Messedrocker> the first computer i used had its 10GB hard drive chopped up into four pieces
2008-04-11 22:39 < Messedrocker> why do people do that?
2008-04-11 22:39 < Rinn> I have about 100GB wasted on things that don't actually have any use, but I justify keeping them because if they weren't there, I'd just have 100GB not being used for anything.
2008-04-11 22:40 < Gracenotes> Rinn: are they all are in the same directory, at least, so you can delete them down the road when drunkenly browsing your file system?
2008-04-11 22:41 < Rinn> More or less.
2008-04-11 22:42 < ericlsx> Chop HDD, just for save file and programme
2008-04-11 22:56 * Arria 's head explodes of cute overload: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Uoj-3bq-14o
2008-04-11 22:56 < Arria> Pasickie!
2008-04-11 22:56 < Messedrocker> ugh
2008-04-11 22:56 < Messedrocker> babies
2008-04-11 22:56 < Messedrocker> why do they all look the same
2008-04-11 23:01 < Gracenotes> Messedrocker: because genetic and epigenetic expression is limited at that stage of development?
2008-04-11 23:04 < Messedrocker> well said gracienotes films
2008-04-11 23:05 < hardtodrink|away> hello
2008-04-11 23:06 < Not_the_NSA> Messedrocker: I just go the Magenta Screen of Death on your OS!
2008-04-11 23:07 < Not_the_NSA> and I got the rainbow one yesterday
2008-04-11 23:07 < Messedrocker> as soon as you get the Vermillion Screen of Death you have to buy a new computer
2008-04-11 23:07 < Not_the_NSA> Messedrocker: what's vermillion?
2008-04-11 23:08 < Messedrocker> it's a shade of red
2008-04-11 23:11 < Golbez> whoaaa
2008-04-11 23:11 < Golbez> blocks for users whose pages I have on my watchlists now show up on my watchlist?
2008-04-11 23:11 < Golbez> spiffy.
2008-04-11 23:12 < Not_the_NSA> Golbez: srsly? O.o
2008-04-11 23:12 < Golbez> Yeah, I responded to an {{unblock}} and watchlisted it
2008-04-11 23:12 < Golbez> go back to my watchlist and the earlier blocking is on there :o
2008-04-11 23:12 < Golbez> It's spiffy alone that protections are now on there
2008-04-11 23:12 < Golbez> but blocks!
2008-04-11 23:12 * Krimpet blocks Not_the_NSA to test it out
2008-04-11 23:12 < Golbez> awesome
2008-04-11 23:13 * Not_the_NSA has never been blocked in his 2+ years
2008-04-11 23:13 * Not_the_NSA is older than Krimpet in Wiki years o_o
2008-04-11 23:13 < Krimpet> Not_the_NSA: my first account was from late 2003. <_<
2008-04-11 23:13 < Not_the_NSA> Krimpet: what name
2008-04-11 23:14 < Not_the_NSA> Krimpet: well I bet you didn't join when you were 11 :D
2008-04-11 23:14 * Not_the_NSA is probably one of the two or three young kids who wasn't super immature and blocked for stupid things
2008-04-11 23:14 * Not_the_NSA was 11 and not blocked O_o
2008-04-11 23:14 < Krimpet> it's connected to my real name, so I'd rather not reveal it, though I only made a dozen edits on it over a few weeks before not bothering to log in again
2008-04-11 23:15 < gwern> Golbez: I think moves and deletes are also on watchlists now too
2008-04-11 23:15 < gwern> it's really cool
2008-04-11 23:15 < gwern> Not_the_NSA: bah. impressive would be pulling an ilyanep
2008-04-11 23:15 < Not_the_NSA> gwern: yes
2008-04-11 23:15 < Not_the_NSA> Krimpet: like User:F*********** ?
2008-04-11 23:16 * Not_the_NSA would say it since it used to be on Krimpet 's IRC name...but it's not anymore
2008-04-11 23:16 < Not_the_NSA> not nick but realname or whatevcer
2008-04-11 23:16 < Not_the_NSA> ever

2008-04-11 23:31 < quanticle> on level 4. Killed by a gnome lord.
2008-04-11 23:31 < quanticle> :(
2008-04-11 23:32 < quanticle> Man, I go into the mines, and there's 2 gnomes and 2 gnome lords right around the staircase
2008-04-11 23:32 < quanticle> I never even had a chance
2008-04-11 23:32 < AdamBishop> were you eaten by a grue
2008-04-11 23:32 < Mike5> "In 1991 an unemployed French nuclear physicist named André Gardes attempted a singlehanded invasion of Sark, armed with a semi-automatic weapon. He was arrested by the Island's police officer (who at the time was Little Sark farmer Philip Perrée Jnr) while sitting on a bench, changing the gun's magazine.[3]£

2008-04-11 23:41 < AdamBishop> In the 1960s the American Telephone & Telegraph Company (AT&T) marketed zinnwaldite colored telephones for offices and homes. However, they described the color as "beige". It is therefore common for Americans of the baby boom generation to refer to the color zinnwaldite as "beige".

2008-04-11 23:45 < enok|walker> that jaguar is fat
2008-04-11 23:47 < enok|walker> Wait did WP change its fair use policy
2008-04-11 23:49 < gwern> enok|walker: we have always been at war with East FairUse
2008-04-11 23:50 < enok|walker> :s
2008-04-11 23:50 < enok|walker> I'm trying to figure out if it's possible to get an image to illustrate this article
2008-04-11 23:57 < miranda> enok|walker: what article?
2008-04-12 00:01 < enok|walker> [[Kitti's Hog-nosed Bat]]
2008-04-12 00:03 < gwern> You know, I like the webcomic Dresden Codak a lot
2008-04-12 00:03 < gwern> but I'm a little insulted by his update schedule
2008-04-12 00:03 < gwern> I mean, wtf, he delivers like once every two weeks or something.
2008-04-12 00:03 < gwern> he *quit* his job to work on dresden codak! 8 hours a day, man
2008-04-12 00:03 < miranda> enok|walker: that wouldn't be good for fair use
2008-04-12 00:03 < gwern> some people deliver daily comics, you know; others even manage weekly
2008-04-12 00:04 < miranda> might want to search nps.gov
2008-04-12 00:05 < gwern> it's nice art, but this isn't frickin' ''Copper'' y'know
2008-04-12 00:05 < gwern> miranda: Voice of America has proven useful for PD images in the past
2008-04-12 00:05 < miranda> yeah...
2008-04-12 00:05 < miranda> but this is of a bat
2008-04-12 00:06 < gwern> http://dresdencodak.com/lj/00012.jpg <-- he omits the weeks between updates bit
2008-04-12 00:07 < Rinn> I like Copper.
2008-04-12 00:08 < gwern> as do I. I think its art is a lot better than DC. but copper's artist makes a living off selling his comics, y'know, so I don't mind the monthly updates
2008-04-12 00:08 < gwern> it's different when you try to live off the webcomic
2008-04-12 00:08 < Rinn> Oh, he's updating again?
2008-04-12 00:09 < gwern> Rinn: I thought so
2008-04-12 00:10 < Fennec> ?c
2008-04-12 00:10 < Fennec> oop
2008-04-12 00:29 < quanticle> Of all the comics out there, I think I like Gunnerkrigg Court the best, followed by Schlock Mercenary....
2008-04-12 00:29 < quanticle> Both have update schedules that run like clockwork
2008-04-12 00:38 < bluefoxicy> DAMNIT.
2008-04-12 00:38 < bluefoxicy> I found a question Wikipedia cannot answer FUCK.
2008-04-12 00:40 < arcimboldo_> How many angels fit on the tip of a needle?
2008-04-12 00:40 < Messedrocker> i'd say an inverse mole
2008-04-12 00:41 < AdamBishop> one isogram
2008-04-12 00:41 < bluefoxicy> no
2008-04-12 00:41 < Enterprise_Cat> How many nukes it would take to vaporize bluefoxicy's house?
2008-04-12 00:42 < bluefoxicy> I checked [[erection]] and [[coitus]] and neither one of them explains why I couldn't keep it up for more than a few seconds :\
2008-04-12 00:42 < bluefoxicy> I have to start checking diseases don't I ;_;
2008-04-12 00:42 < Fennec> ........
2008-04-12 00:43 < Enterprise_Cat> ....o....k....
2008-04-12 00:47 < AdamBishop> were you trying to have sex with a woman, bluefoxicy
2008-04-12 00:48 < bluefoxicy> AdamBishop: yes, it didn't work.
2008-04-12 00:48 < AdamBishop> well, aren't you repulsed by vaginas? That's probably why
2008-04-12 00:48 < bluefoxicy> my brain is in a panic loop I'm trying to fix
2008-04-12 00:48 < bluefoxicy> BESIDES THAT.
2008-04-12 00:48 < AdamBishop> what other reason could there be?
2008-04-12 00:48 < bluefoxicy> something ELSE was wrong <_< there was other stuff going on besides that at first, she was still dressed <_<
2008-04-12 00:49 < AdamBishop> ...?
2008-04-12 00:50 < bluefoxicy> >_> <_< I wasn't really worried about that at the time anyway
2008-04-12 00:51 < AdamBishop> I don't understand
2008-04-12 00:53 < Fennec> bluefoxicy: well, /clearly/, you have failed as a human male. Your only course of action left is to undergo sexual reassignment surgery to become a girl instead. OMG really, a) Too Much Info b) chill, dude. relax. etc.
2008-04-12 00:54 < bluefoxicy> Fennec: I already know I've failed as a human being in general :|
2008-04-12 00:54 < Enterprise_Cat> Awww
2008-04-12 00:54 * Enterprise_Cat comforts bluefoxicy
2008-04-12 00:55 < bluefoxicy> o_o
2008-04-12 00:55 < Zach> fennec: tillie is your bot?
2008-04-12 00:55 < bluefoxicy> I got a high powered transformer in the mail
2008-04-12 00:55 * quanticle is out for the night
2008-04-12 00:55 < bluefoxicy> I'm going to rig the wires up to a wall socket and play with it.
2008-04-12 00:56 < Zach> http://stats.fennecfoxen.org/freenode/wikinews.html <---- hasn't been updated in forever :(
2008-04-12 00:56 < Fennec> I know!
2008-04-12 00:56 < Enterprise_Cat> bluefoxicy: unwise
2008-04-12 00:56 < Zach> !!
2008-04-12 00:56 < Fennec> but I've moved the statsbot and maybe this weekend I'll re-jigger the running-the-stats
2008-04-12 00:57 < Zach> yay!
2008-04-12 00:57 < Zach> :D
2008-04-12 00:57 < nokmar> cheap generic viagra canada import blah blah blah
2008-04-12 00:57 < Zach> i miss the "topic" history
2008-04-12 00:58 < Zach> i used to go to that when a certain poo colored cat changed the topic
2008-04-12 00:58 < Zach> i mean brown_cat
2008-04-12 00:58 < Rinn> I think he got banned.
2008-04-12 00:58 < Zach> yea, i banned him from #wikinews too
2008-04-12 00:59 < Zach> what a douche nozzle.
2008-04-12 00:59 < Zach> not fair.
2008-04-12 00:59 < Zach> :P
2008-04-12 00:59 < Rinn> Pfft, you left yourself wide open.
2008-04-12 01:00 < Zach> heh
2008-04-12 01:00 < Zach> * Zach plays a chord while being crushed
2008-04-12 01:00 < Zach> <Zach> ow!
2008-04-12 01:02 < Zach> i've heard of drive-by shootings, but not drive-by piano dropping
2008-04-12 01:03 < Rinn> That means you haven't known me long enough.
2008-04-12 01:05 < Zach> hm, now i want to watch animaniacs
2008-04-12 01:06 < Zach> http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y0y8jkfXoX8
2008-04-12 01:10 < Mike5> the US accounts for half of worldwide military expenditures
2008-04-12 01:10 < Mike5> that's quite.. impressive
2008-04-12 01:11 < kmccoy> Holy crap. I just looked up the price of the microphones on our show. I thought we were exaggerating when we said they're $500. Turns out we were actually a little low.
2008-04-12 01:12 < Mark_Away> microphones are expensive if you want quality
2008-04-12 01:12 < kmccoy> True enough.
2008-04-12 01:12 < Mark_Away> at my primary school, the wireless microphones kept getting ruined by idiots tapping on them to see if they were on
2008-04-12 01:13 < Zach> haha
2008-04-12 01:13 < Zach> i do that on open mic night at the acme comedy club
2008-04-12 01:13 < kmccoy> If you tap gently it's not that bad. :)
2008-04-12 01:14 < Mark_Away> kmccoy, heh, yeah keyword 'gently' :P
2008-04-12 01:14 < kmccoy> The mics I was looking up are small headband types. DPA 4066.
2008-04-12 01:14 < kmccoy> hehe, yeah. :)
2008-04-12 01:16 < Zach> are references allowed on disambiguation pages?
2008-04-12 01:18 < Leslie_S> they shouldnt be needed..
2008-04-12 01:18 < Leslie_S> i guess if you had a good reason you could use them though..
2008-04-12 01:19 < Leslie_S> anything's allowed if its neccessary.
2008-04-12 01:20 < Zach> well alex ovechkin (the hockey player) is sometimes referred to as "alex the great" in the NHL world, i don't know if i need to source that in order to put that on the [[Alexander the Great (disambiguation)]] page
2008-04-12 01:20 < Zach> damn it wikilinker.
2008-04-12 01:20 < Zach> http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alexander_the_Great_%28disambiguation%29
2008-04-12 01:21 < AdamBishop> I don't think that needs a source
2008-04-12 01:22 < Zach> i didin't think so either
2008-04-12 01:22 < Zach> \but if the situation comes up where someone asks for a citation, how would i add that to the disambiguation page?
2008-04-12 01:22 < Zach> a "references" section on the dab page?
2008-04-12 01:25 < Mark_Away> i've seen references on disambig pages
2008-04-12 01:26 < Mark_Away> but more where an article hasn't been created for some of the things on the disambig page yet
2008-04-12 01:26 < Zach> i think that would make more sense
2008-04-12 01:27 < Zach> with the pressure put on proving the notability of every which thing
2008-04-12 01:27 < Zach> "a hand has four fingers and a thumb[citation needed]."
2008-04-12 01:28 < AdamBishop> Facebook's "you may also know" thingy gives a lot of weird results
2008-04-12 01:28 < AdamBishop> I don't know how certain people are connected to certain other people, it seems impossible
2008-04-12 01:28 < AdamBishop> it's fascinating
2008-04-12 01:28 < Messedrocker> i know pretty much everyone that appears on that
2008-04-12 01:29 < Messedrocker> then again most of my friends are in the same network
2008-04-12 01:29 < Messedrocker> by the way if you bother friending me on facebook i will reject thee
2008-04-12 01:29 < Zach> hey Messedrocker you still do the press passes for wikinews?
2008-04-12 01:29 < AdamBishop> I don't know who you are
2008-04-12 01:29 < Zach> i was just accreditted.
2008-04-12 01:29 < Messedrocker> Zach, I sure do
2008-04-12 01:30 < Zach> cool.
2008-04-12 01:30 < Zach> i'll find a good picture of myself and email it to you?
2008-04-12 01:30 < Messedrocker> yes, i will also need your address and your username on wikinews (it's Zachary isn't it?)
2008-04-12 01:30 < Zach> yessir
2008-04-12 01:31 < Messedrocker> and by giving me such personal details i will not surrender them except under court order
2008-04-12 01:32 < kmccoy> And your SSN.
2008-04-12 01:32 < Messedrocker> and i am not liable if a freak incident is responsible for their release
2008-04-12 01:32 < Messedrocker> no i do not need SSN
2008-04-12 01:32 < Messedrocker> and i will never make you email it to me
2008-04-12 01:32 < kmccoy> And a major credit card.
2008-04-12 01:32 < Zach> ok.
2008-04-12 01:33 < Zach> 4301575518072421 Visa expiration 10/10
2008-04-12 01:33 < Zach> ssn 473000323
2008-04-12 01:33 < Enterprise_Cat> :O
2008-04-12 01:33 < kmccoy> And card verification code.
2008-04-12 01:34 * Enterprise_Cat notes that that is an invalid SSN
2008-04-12 01:34 < Zach> uhh.. 233
2008-04-12 01:34 < Messedrocker> now if that was your real information i'd steal your identity to make a point
2008-04-12 01:34 < Zach> [[WP:POINT]]
2008-04-12 01:34 < kmccoy> Messedrocker, go steal that guy's identity, the one with the ads and the truck and stuff.
2008-04-12 01:34 < Zach> oh wait, you're not disrupting WP
2008-04-12 01:35 < Messedrocker> wikipedia's silly policies and guidelines don't apply to identity theft
2008-04-12 01:35 < Zach> you're disrupting me
2008-04-12 01:35 < Messedrocker> kmccoy, he actually was victim of identity fraud
2008-04-12 01:35 < kmccoy> Yeah, I read that.
2008-04-12 01:37 < Zach> ok messedrocker, as soon as my hellish acne clears up i'll email a pic
2008-04-12 01:37 < Messedrocker> :)
2008-04-12 01:37 < Zach> or you could just crop [[commons:User:Zachary.jpg]]
2008-04-12 01:37 < Zach> WIKILINKER YOU FUCKER
2008-04-12 01:37 < Messedrocker> #wikipedia doesn't have wiki linker
2008-04-12 01:37 < Krimpet> where is your wikilinker now?
2008-04-12 01:38 < AdamBishop> Zach, so in like 5 years?
2008-04-12 01:38 < Zach> http://commons.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?title=Special:Log&page=Image:Zachary.jpg
2008-04-12 01:38 < Zach> ugh

2008-04-12 02:02 < Mike_H> but do I get to see it?
2008-04-12 02:02 < Mike_H> no
2008-04-12 02:02 < Mike_H> because my best friend had to go home
2008-04-12 02:02 < Mike_H> like the pussy he is
2008-04-12 02:02 < Zach> quit making me laugh people, i'm trying to take a self pic for my wikinews press pass :P
