[06:42:30] <FatPhil> I'm claiming that a win, as my postulates are purely abstracts, and screenshots are real (and apples are good, as you can make cider from them)
[06:45:31] <chromas> Except for the "delicious" apples; those are trash
[07:09:24] <FatPhil> they're OK if you want a drink, rather than a fruit

[10:31:51] * chromas notices a disturbing lack of tmb and coffee++ in the channel
[10:33:06] <TheMightyBuzzard> coffee++
[10:33:06] <Bender> karma - coffee: 3708
[10:33:22] <TheMightyBuzzard> was distracted by boobies
[10:42:30] <AndyTheAbsurd> chromas: golden delicious are meh; red delicious are utter goddamned trash that stores should stop selling and orchards should stop growing.
[10:42:51] <chromas> exactly
[10:43:00] <boru> Red delicious? Never heard of them.
[10:43:13] <chromas> They're the ones you usually see in cartoons
[10:43:14] <boru> Are they like red chiefs? (Those I really like, but they're so hard to get now)
[10:43:43] <chromas> https://c2.staticflickr.com
[10:43:44] <boru> Gala and red chiefs are probably my favourite apples.
[10:44:01] <boru> Looks like a red chief.
[10:44:09] <boru> Philistines.
[10:45:10] <AndyTheAbsurd> chromas: Either boru is referring to some completely different variety of a apple, or his mouth doesn't function properly.
[10:46:38] <TheMightyBuzzard> the proper destiny of an apple is to be juiced and have that juice fermented. anything else is a waste.
[10:46:39] <boru> I think they're related to red chief, or some mutation in one way or another.
[10:46:47] <chromas> It's like vi vs emacs but with apple products
[10:46:58] <boru> I think they had to change the name of red chief for PC bullshit.
[10:47:21] <boru> I had two red chief trees in the garden growing up. I used to eat them by the bucket.
[10:47:26] <chromas> B-but political correctness is just not being nazis to each other. whas wrong with that?
[10:47:41] <boru> It's bloody fruit!
[10:47:48] <chromas> Being home grown may make them better
[10:47:57] <chromas> sorta like tomatoes. store tomatoes are trash
[10:47:59] <boru> Aye, we lived off the land.
[10:48:05] <TheMightyBuzzard> chromas, or boobies.
[10:48:05] <boru> And out of the rivers and sea.
[10:48:26] <chromas> TheMightyBuzzard: homegrown boobies? Like, grown in your own home?
[10:48:40] <TheMightyBuzzard> ya. far superior to aftermarket.
[10:50:27] <chromas> a tit in hand is worth two in her bush
[10:50:39] <chromas> or somethin'
[10:50:43] * TheMightyBuzzard wanders off in search of his morning stimpack
[10:50:58] <chromas> somebody call for an exterminator?
[11:06:22] <FatPhil> I think that red delicious are just a variety of golden delicious that's bred to go bright cartoony red when ripened under a lamp.
[11:06:44] <FatPhil> it has the same hollow sound when you tap it that g.d.s have
[11:06:47] <FatPhil> tonk tonk
[11:08:41] <chromas> They're named ironically. Probably created by the feds
[11:08:47] <chromas> like patriot act
[11:09:04] <Bytram> coffee++

[11:09:08] <Bender> karma - sleep: 17
[11:10:36] <FatPhil> chromas's image link looks very like red delicious, so they're probably the same as red chiefs.
[11:11:35] <chromas> it's supposed to be delicious, but also when I looked up chiefs, I got delicious
[11:12:51] * chromas tosses a granny smith
[11:13:18] * chromas takes a bite out of it so he'll look like an asshole
[11:14:47] <FatPhil> closely related it seems: https://en.wikipedia.org

[11:25:25] <Bytram> tie
[11:25:48] <TheMightyBuzzard> nah, you win. Ice-T probably comes with some hotties.

[11:29:57] <Bytram> time to hit the showers... have a great day everyone!
[11:30:48] <boru> I think they're a mutation of red chiefs.
[11:31:01] <boru> They look more golden on the inside in the pictures I've looked at.
[11:31:13] <boru> Red chief had more green flesh.
[11:31:29] <boru> Red delicious seems to be quite a bit sweeter, too.
[11:37:05] <TheMightyBuzzard> blarg. headache again and i'm out of tylenol.
[11:39:40] <boru> I don't know about there, but it's just past mushroom season here.

[11:44:19] <boru> Didn't ubisoft make that one?
[11:44:27] <TheMightyBuzzard> ya
[11:44:43] <boru> If you buy one of their products, then you have it coming, imo.
[11:45:10] * TheMightyBuzzard shurgs
[11:45:44] <TheMightyBuzzard> i just wanted it posted for the headline "the fractured but whole cracked"
[11:46:23] <TheMightyBuzzard> well mostly anyway
[11:47:05] <boru> Ah yeah, I was just taking the opportunity to bash ubisoft.
[11:47:23] <TheMightyBuzzard> one of the great things about being a guy, your sense of humor may grow in maturity as you do but you don't have to give up laughing at butt jokes no matter how old you get.
[11:48:17] <AndyTheAbsurd> boru, that's like taking the opportunity to slam-dunk a basketball through your five-year-old nephew's toy basketball hoop that's only five feet off the ground.
[11:48:33] <boru> No mercy!
[11:48:36] <TheMightyBuzzard> AndyTheAbsurd, anyone who doesn't do that has no soul.
[11:48:54] <AndyTheAbsurd> well of course you do
[11:49:02] <AndyTheAbsurd> but like once or twice a week
[11:49:12] <TheMightyBuzzard> nod nod
[11:49:23] <AndyTheAbsurd> and you generally don't *tell* other people you do it
[11:49:29] <AndyTheAbsurd> we all just *know*.
[11:49:31] <TheMightyBuzzard> fair nuff
[11:58:49] <FatPhil> it's like having a toss into a pot-plant when there's a pretty young female in a restaurant.
[12:01:18] * boru is not sure which one is ubisoft.

[12:28:49] <TheMightyBuzzard> crap. out of stuff to read in my rss feeds.
[12:32:50] <TheMightyBuzzard> guess i'll go have a smoke then see if i can manage to not fuck shit up playing directly with registers so i can get alarms working on this rtc.
[12:34:37] <boru> No debugger?
[12:35:07] <boru> I could give you my binary logger to use if you have a spare UART, for some passive debugging.
[12:43:54] <TheMightyBuzzard> boru, using the lcd display for debugging. easier than finding a serial cable.
[12:44:30] <boru> Any port in a storm.
[12:45:02] <TheMightyBuzzard> ya. not quite as handy but it's not like it's production code.
[12:45:25] <boru> I've used LEDs to belt out CW/Morse, radio interference (post characterisation) and all sorts for debugging in hard to reach places.
[12:45:49] <TheMightyBuzzard> for production i'll switch to the rs232 port for debug messages.
[12:45:53] <boru> Is-it-dead-in-orbit is a fun game to play.
[12:46:04] <boru> Aye, seems reasonable.
[12:46:16] <boru> Do you need to support reflashing?
[12:46:45] <TheMightyBuzzard> yup. if only on the grounds of I'm Not Perfect
[12:48:07] <boru> Is it DB9 or just RX/TX?
[12:48:18] <TheMightyBuzzard> but i only need to support it being done by myself or someone else capable of understanding it. no need to support the electrician types who'll be working as service guys.
[12:50:02] <boru> What's the chip? Might have builtin ISP/IAP, then you could just zmodem that badboy over your RS232.
[12:50:43] <boru> I've used minicom for that before I had a proper bootloader/flash written before.
[12:50:50] <boru> Flasher, even.
[12:51:22] <TheMightyBuzzard> accepts flashing over the usb->serial interface built into the board as well as db9.
[12:51:36] * boru nods.
[12:52:00] <TheMightyBuzzard> also over tftp if you have the ethernet module connected. which i don't.
[12:52:22] <boru> Aye, that takes a bit more fecking around, anyway.
[12:54:04] <TheMightyBuzzard> they shouldn't need reflashing barring a bug though. there'll be no security issues cause they take outside input only from one wire and they only count how many times it pulses.
[12:55:03] * boru nods.
[13:00:06] <TheMightyBuzzard> only reason the rtc is annoying me is cause they intersperse the config settings with the time data. like having bit-0 of a register be the enable/disable switch for the whole thing and bits-1-7 be time data.
[13:02:23] <TheMightyBuzzard> efficient but at the expense of me having to write extra code
[13:02:29] <TheMightyBuzzard> smoke break
[13:02:29] <TheMightyBuzzard> nicotine++
[13:02:29] <Bender> karma - nicotine: 493
[13:04:43] <boru> Yeah, not separating data and configuration is a bit silly.
[13:04:49] <boru> That's just lazy design.
[13:06:58] <Bender> [SoylentNews] - Over 75% Decline in Insect Biomass Measured in German Nature Reserves - http://sylnt.us - Hey,-man.-Don't-bug-me!!
[13:09:37] <boru> It's not clear in that study whether or not they're measuring existing populations (in which case is alarmism) or total population including new species (which is, indeed, something to be worried about...)
[13:15:52] <TheMightyBuzzard> doesn't bother me either way. create an empty niche and i guarantee something will end up filling it.
[13:16:58] <TheMightyBuzzard> as long as the bees don't end up all dead, it's not that important.
[13:17:32] <boru> It's more than bees that are important for our survival. Contrary to popular belief, mosquitos are also extremely important.
[13:17:46] <boru> Which is why we can't just wipe them out to control the spread of malaria.
[13:26:43] <pinchy> i wanna see buzzard go fight for calexit. I can see him running out the door with his shotgun mumbling "gosh darn liberals bout time blah blah..."
[13:28:03] <TheMightyBuzzard> pinchy, if i were only bringing one firearm, i'd take a rifle instead. it works at all ranges except very close while a shotgun doesn't.
[13:29:04] <pinchy> muh malaria, we dont need no steenkin mosquitos
[13:29:18] <boru> Rifle for medium-long range engagements. Shoot to wound, then gas their camp in the night.
[13:29:42] <boru> Shooting to wound will consume food and medical supplies, but erode their fighting force.
[13:30:10] <pinchy> got rid of smallpox and aids took its place
[13:30:48] <pinchy> some video explaining the lifecycle of malaria said its been around with us since before we where human
[13:31:08] <TheMightyBuzzard> boru, fuck mosquitoes. anything that decides as a species that i am its dinner has made a supremely ill advised evolutionary decision.
[13:31:16] <pinchy> makes me wonder how they know that. they check neandertal blood/dna or something?
[13:31:33] <boru> I'm guessing insects preserved in amber etc.
[13:31:47] <boru> TMB; that's quite a few species on that list...
[13:32:03] <TheMightyBuzzard> not as many as there used to be though...
[13:33:07] <pinchy> what about that worm that mr carters org has almost eradicated ? where the love that lil bugger?
[13:33:28] <TheMightyBuzzard> is it any good for fishing bait?
[13:34:03] <TheMightyBuzzard> cause that could sway my opinion
[13:34:35] <pinchy> heh apparently u dont want this worm to get in ur drinking water
[13:34:57] <pinchy> looks like a long tapeworm coming out the skin https://en.wikipedia.org
[13:34:58] <upstart> ^ 03Dracunculiasis - Wikipedia
[13:35:11] <TheMightyBuzzard> would it survive a trip through a coffee maker? cause i don't drink uncaffeinated water.

[13:36:22] <pinchy> just like parvo virus with puppies
[13:36:29] <pinchy> get rid of the hookworm
[13:44:06] <TheMightyBuzzard> it occurred to me while i was out smoking that there is a significant correlation with a society's ready access to inexpensive sources of caffeine and its technological and sociological advancement.
