[03:30:10] <takyon> that don't matter

[03:32:29] <SirFinkus> it can be a little ambiguous imo
[03:32:55] <SirFinkus> is the name the submitter or the editor? the date the date of the submission, or when it will hit mainpage?

[10:18:42] <crutchy> he was never gunna win. same as ron paul was never gunna win
[10:18:52] <crutchy> nice guys finish last]
[10:19:08] <Subsentient> The worst part is, I really had some hope here.

[10:23:34] <Subsentient> TheMightyBuzzard: Who you supporting? A good heated political piss off might take the doom of the country off my mind
[10:23:49] <crutchy> Subsentient, i think the point is that its mr and mrs more of the same
[10:24:06] <crutchy> the establishment is doing everything it can to protect the status quo
[10:24:18] <crutchy> only fools think trump and hillary aren't status quo
[10:24:39] <Subsentient> Well Trump is gonna be a lot worse than Bush, like, a lot worse.
[10:24:51] <Subsentient> Hillary I expect Obama's 3rd term.
[10:24:52] <TheMightyBuzzard> supporting? nobody. I'm hoping trump wins though for the shakeup it could potentially cause the Reps as a party.
[10:25:14] <crutchy> whoever wins will spend all their time whinging about congress
[10:25:56] <crutchy> and whoever wins may well be inheriting an economic time bomb
[10:26:03] <TheMightyBuzzard> the alternative is hillary, who's arguably as corrupt a politician as the US has ever produced.
[10:26:13] <crutchy> probably
[10:26:20] <crutchy> well, they're all pretty bad
[10:26:28] <Subsentient> Except Bernie. And now he's lost.
[10:26:38] <TheMightyBuzzard> sanders? he never had a chance. this is the US and we don't elect socialists.
[10:26:58] <Subsentient> Probably. It's the glimmer of hope I had that makes this painful.
[10:27:19] <TheMightyBuzzard> you gotta disguise that shit by calling yourself a democrat. you outright say it and you just shot your political career in the head.
[10:27:22] <crutchy> Subsentient, there are so many ron paul supporters that know how you feel
[10:27:59] <TheMightyBuzzard> well unless you're running for mayor of SF or something.
[10:28:07] <crutchy> many think that the republican party literally had to doctor primary results to stop him
[10:29:23] <chromas> hilary would make safes paces for all
[10:29:44] <chromas> except the cistraightwhites
[10:30:48] <crutchy> you might all get your own free private email servers
[10:31:27] <TheMightyBuzzard> fuck no. i've administered email servers. i'd rather have google reading all my mail.
[10:33:00] <crutchy> they'll be managed by the NSA
[10:33:42] <TheMightyBuzzard> thas fine
[10:33:46] <chromas> nmail
[10:36:39] <TheMightyBuzzard> you know, i've got a protonmail account now. i really should start using it.
[10:37:43] <crutchy> i have a gitlab.com account now, but its slower than github and i mistakenly thought gitlab was by atlassian but its not so it blows
[10:37:48] <crutchy> and its ruby

[10:45:24] <crutchy> they do
[10:45:43] <crutchy> i'm forced to use my dodgy 'whatever i changed' git script in linux
[10:45:45] <TheMightyBuzzard> ruh roh. mod ban time
[10:46:04] <crutchy> someone picking on our mate gewg again?
[10:46:40] * crutchy hasn't logged in for months. i probably forgot how to mod
[10:47:09] <crutchy> is there an api command to find out when i last logged in?
[10:47:39] <FatPhil> I haven't logged in for months, as the machine in the office with a saved password has committed suicide. None of my home machines have that login stored. (including my brain)
[10:48:02] <crutchy> i forgot my password for the SN wiki
[10:48:10] <crutchy> and didn't register an email address with it
[10:48:54] <crutchy> though i think i got exec's login
[10:48:59] <crutchy> its an admin too :p
[10:49:18] <crutchy> i dare not use it cos i might be roped into something
[10:50:19] <FatPhil> I think I might be forced into learning LUA.
[10:50:39] <crutchy> i've heard the name, but that's about it
[10:51:20] <FatPhil> A friend wants to write an embedded OK for IoT devices, and I presuaded him that once he's got a kernel, the next layer up should all just be scripted in a light-weight language such as LUA
[10:51:30] <FatPhil> OS, not OK
[10:52:00] <FatPhil> I suggested it because it's fairly bloat-free. It runs on many microcontrollers, for example.
[10:52:35] <crutchy> i've done a very small amount of asm on an atmega128. i can't imagine how hard it would be to write a kernel that could be used for scripting
[10:52:35] <FatPhil> The crypto subsystem of your phone, the stuff even the kernel doesn't have hands-on access to, could well be LUA scripts, it is on Nokia phones.
[10:53:42] <crutchy> even writing a vga driver for it would be hard
[10:54:14] <FatPhil> he's already written an alternative init. All that has to do is spawn a LUA interpreter, and bob's your uncle.
[10:55:27] <FatPhil> The problem is that because it was my suggestion, he's expecting me to help out.
[10:55:46] <FatPhil> Task 1 - write a compiler in LUA, apparently
[10:56:22] <TheMightyBuzzard> crutchy, no. no command for finding out when you last logged in. i dunno where in the db to even look for that off hand.
[10:56:43] <crutchy> years ago i wanted to make a compiler for pascal. i think i got as far as the tokenizer
[10:56:47] <crutchy> :p
[10:59:14] <TheMightyBuzzard> FatPhil, grab an oss lua interpreter and port it. prolly be easier.

[11:17:26] <crutchy> my work poota is a newish i7 with a decent nvidia card

[11:38:49] <cmn32480> the Celeron that Exec is running on gets about 400 ppd
[11:39:44] <cmn32480> and my box at the house has an AMD FX-8350, which pulls about 20k ppd
[11:40:07] <cmn32480> and a GTX970, which pulls between 280k and 310k ppd depending in the Work unit

[11:59:54] <crutchy> my work poota is folding again tonight
[12:00:28] <crutchy> i got 4 pootas on my desk atm, but can't use the others
[12:01:05] <Thouren> I only fold on GPU, CPU just doesn't have the PPD to be worth it
[12:01:27] <crutchy> our server room gets so warm we gotta leave the door open at night to let it cool down. this weekend they're putting a whol lot more shit in there too which will be interesting. apparently they're putting an A/C unit in there in the next couple of weeks
[12:01:48] <Thouren> Though I have my dual Xeon 5647 server inactive right now
[12:02:16] <Thouren> I realized my server was really only running Flexget, I could use a raspi for that much cheaper
[12:02:44] <crutchy> i could fold on the hypervisor gpu. its a workstation card with multiple display ports. not sure of model
[12:02:56] <crutchy> but it would heat up the server room even more :p
[12:03:13] <Thouren> I'm running an R9 295x2 for my gpu, insane amounts of heat
[12:03:54] <crutchy> dunno if i'd wanna put in on the hyperv. if it caused it to tank that would be bad
[12:05:42] <crutchy> i'll try running it just on my gt 640 at home here
[12:06:00] <crutchy> probably wont do much, but better than nothing. running the cpu bogs everything down
[12:07:09] <cmn32480> the 640 may or may not handle it

[12:19:01] <Thouren> Oh boy
[12:19:33] * cmn32480 hides
[12:19:48] <crutchy> i'm considering adding option to use just hostname for authenticating irc admin commands. is that any less secure than using nickserv account with a 330 numeric?
[12:19:53] <cmn32480> crutchy - no you soudl not give out your passwords... even for $50
[12:20:11] <crutchy> cmn32480, wat? that's just nonsensement!
[12:20:38] * crutchy shoves his hunter2 up cmn32480's ***
[12:21:00] * cmn32480 has no idea.
[12:21:47] <crutchy> i figure they both come from the server
[12:21:55] <crutchy> only thing i can think of is a mitm
[12:22:13] <crutchy> but they would both be as susceptable as each other to that
[12:23:24] * crutchy wonders if its possible to spoof the hostname and have the server repeat the spoof
[12:24:37] <crutchy> "To avoid spoofing, an ircd (the IRC server program) will compare reverse and forward DNS—that is, it will make sure your rDNS hostname points back to your IP address—before displaying it to other users."

[14:06:27] <crutchy> just about every script uses it :p
[14:07:07] <crutchy> it may have been the cause of the odd bucket instability that seems to happen once in a blue moon

[14:10:45] -!- mode/#Soylent [+v stderr] by Aphrodite
[14:11:07] <crutchy> before it would randomly read the value, then read an empty, in blocks of random increments
[14:11:15] <crutchy> now its consistent
[14:11:41] <crutchy> just seems like there might be a couple of rogue line breaks in the pipe somewhere still
[14:12:07] <crutchy> it consistently reads the value every 3rd call
[14:13:27] <crutchy> i think this bug probably was the cause of corruption of the occasional large serialized bucket
[14:13:41] <crutchy> if it split the string at a space, the space was trimmed
[14:13:54] <crutchy> which corrupted the entire serialized array
[14:14:30] <crutchy> only happened very rarely though, mainly when i was working on irciv
[14:15:19] <crutchy> it was probably also the reason why base64 encoding a serialized array was more stable; no spaces
[14:16:47] <crutchy> bucket_read works ok for a single call, same as exec does now
[14:17:03] <crutchy> only a problem in a loop, or yeah large serialized arrays

[15:15:43] <Webbyatwork> LOL
[15:15:52] <Webbyatwork> well, I am blonde.. with long hair, wrong sex though
[15:16:00] <SirFinkus> damn
[15:16:10] <SirFinkus> but is it the wrong sex?
[15:16:22] * SirFinkus scoots up uncomfortably close to Webbyatwork
[15:16:24] <Webbyatwork> Well, are we not all trans nowadays?
[15:16:31] <Webbyatwork> I thought you had to be trans to be cool online now
[15:16:45] <Runaway1956> Oh-oh - SirFinkus is hitting on our Webby . . . .
[15:17:02] <Webbyatwork> It's OK, Ive been single for 13 years. Any port in a storm right?
[15:17:16] * cmn32480 avoids this conversation adn goes back to his day job
[15:17:26] <Runaway1956> I foresee an episode of User Friendly unfolding before our eyes
[15:17:56] <Runaway1956> Lemme know when we get to the exciting part, with space crowbars and stuff.
[15:17:58] <SirFinkus> the trouble is determineing whether you're the boat or the port
[15:18:10] <Webbyatwork> lol
[15:19:22] <Webbyatwork> More like marooned on a desert island
[15:19:49] <SirFinkus> drinking coconut milk?
[15:20:53] <Webbyatwork> Nah makes you fat
[15:20:57] <SirFinkus> oh, speaking of hell
[15:21:02] <SirFinkus> I get to go to the DMV today
[15:21:16] <SirFinkus> so I may be away from irc for a month or two
[15:21:41] <Webbyatwork> We hear about the DMV over in europe.....hell sounds like an understatement
[15:22:05] <AndyTheAbsurd> hell is an understatement for what happens at most DMVs
[15:22:08] <Webbyatwork> Heh, I renewed my driving licence and paid my road tax online last month
[15:22:32] <Webbyatwork> UK gov has actually done a good job, they used my Passport licence to auto renew my driving licence photo card
[15:22:35] <AndyTheAbsurd> And apparently California DMV now lets you set appointments online, but they're already booked out three months in most places.
[15:22:52] <SirFinkus> I was dark patterned into accidentally clicking the box that makes me come in
[15:23:05] <Webbyatwork> So, we don't have a DMV here, you either fill in forms at the post office or do it online
[15:23:21] <cmn32480> Maryladn's DMV is actaully not too bad.
[15:23:22] <SirFinkus> a very strangely worded question on the website about my vision
[15:23:25] <Webbyatwork> But I never understand why you lot have to visit the DMV so often
[15:23:32] <Webbyatwork> you have something weird about number plates?
[15:23:36] <Webbyatwork> new tags or something?
[15:23:42] <SirFinkus> apparently I have to take a vision test
[15:24:28] <nick> Webbyatwork, makes it very difficult to actually complain to the DVLA ;)
[15:24:43] <nick> can't blame the poor people at the post office.
[15:24:46] <AndyTheAbsurd> Webbyatwork: license plates here don't follow the car the way they do in Britain (IIRC about the details of that in Britain). New owner of car = new plate = visit to the DMV if it's a private sale.
[15:25:08] <Webbyatwork> nick, yeah except when they lose the car sales form thing (v5?) and you get 20 parking tickets ;-)
[15:25:18] <SirFinkus> I wouldn't even bother with it, but I won't be able to buy beer without my license
[15:25:21] <Webbyatwork> AndyTheAbsurd, thanks that explains it
[15:25:28] <cmn32480> back in a minuite... need to reboot.. PC is not acting right
[15:25:34] <SirFinkus> I could use bike and bus for the vast majority of the time if I wanted
[15:25:41] <Webbyatwork> Home time for me, Ill catch you guys n girls later
[15:25:51] <SirFinkus> and I'm off to school
[15:26:07] <nick> careful there Webbyatwork, a V5 isn't proof of ownership, just means the DVLA gets to fine you for anything that happens to the vehicle ;)
[15:26:10] -!- Webbyatwork has quit [Read error: Connection reset by peer]
[15:26:14] <nick> awww
[15:26:26] <Runaway1956> There's an exception to the license plate thing in Texas - the plates follow the car, they need a new sticker every year, but you keep the plates forever
[15:27:23] <AndyTheAbsurd> Neat. You're supposed to get a new plate every 5 years here in FL.
[15:27:36] <AndyTheAbsurd> So far, I've always changed cars more frequently than that.
[15:28:24] <nick> seems kind of silly to get a new plate all the time
[15:28:33] <nick> waste of resources
[15:29:38] <AndyTheAbsurd> Well, they charge you $100 to get a new plate, and I'm sure it doesn't cost them that much to make one.
[15:30:19] <nick> well sure, but they could achieve the same result with the sticker, like in texas
[15:30:36] <Runaway1956> It might cost them two or three dollars - I think most states use prison labor to produce the plates
[15:31:00] <AndyTheAbsurd> Oh, they have those, too - bright yellow sticker in the corner of the plate.
[15:31:02] <nick> same as what they used to do in the UK, with the tax disc, although now we dont even get that, just get to pay the money and hope the system works
[15:31:21] <nick> oh if they're doubling up, it makes more sense
[15:31:47] <nick> get an extra $100 every 5 years, or when a new car is purchased
[15:37:04] <TheMightyBuzzard> stupid weather
[15:37:07] <TheMightyBuzzard> #weather
[15:37:08] <MrPlow> Today: Isolated thunderstorms this morning, then mostly cloudy during the afternoon with heavy thunderstorms becoming likely. A few storms may be severe. High near 80F. Winds SSW at 10 to 20 mph. Chance of rain 90%. Tomorrow: Sunny. High 84F. Winds W at 5 to 10 mph.
[15:38:09] <TheMightyBuzzard> ran out of dough bait. got rained on. would get thunder stormed on in an hour if i stayed out there.
[15:38:25] <TheMightyBuzzard> think it's time to call it a day for fishing.
[15:38:49] * cmn32480 hands TheMightyBuzzard a towel
[15:39:21] <Runaway1956> The fish are already wet man, they don't care about the rain.
[15:40:28] * TheMightyBuzzard always has knows where his towel is
[15:41:17] <TheMightyBuzzard> Runaway1956, strangely, they do. rain washes all kinds of stuff they're happy to eat into the water and makes it much harder to catch anything.
[15:42:22] <Runaway1956> like chumming, right?
[15:44:07] <TheMightyBuzzard> with the opposite effect
[15:44:42] <TheMightyBuzzard> cause it's not localized. it's all around the entire lake.
[15:54:47] <FatPhil> a stick of dynamite should work
[15:58:33] <Thouren> FatPhil, +1 for sustainable fishing methods
[15:59:10] <FatPhil> yah - we'll never run out of dynamite!
[15:59:32] <FatPhil> anyway, time for fud.
