[10:29:24] <boru> You and I both, old chap.
[10:30:05] <boru> My astronomer gene is kicking in on approach to Winter; sleep all day, observe all night.
[10:30:36] <TheMightyBuzzard> thankfully i don't have to just wait around. caffeine + adderall ftw
[10:31:04] <boru> Lucky you.
[10:32:10] <TheMightyBuzzard> possibly. i'm not sure if i'd trade the adderall for an attention span without it or not.
[10:33:23] <TheMightyBuzzard> can't decide if i like the energy or the focus better.
[10:35:08] <boru> Heh
[10:46:41] <TheMightyBuzzard> blerg. i don't wanna start the day off debugging this RTC's silicon vs its documentation. think i'll do system updates for the lan instead.

[10:49:26] <Bender> karma - nicotine: 496
[10:52:06] <boru> What's the issue with it?
[10:57:12] <TheMightyBuzzard> oh, precisely following the "set up an alarm" instructions isn't triggering an interrupt like it should.
[10:58:28] <TheMightyBuzzard> more specifically, the alm1if bit isn't being set
[10:58:42] <TheMightyBuzzard> rather 0 not 1
[11:00:39] <TheMightyBuzzard> i'll get it figured out though. prolly something simple like they left out a condition that they took for granted.
[11:04:26] <TheMightyBuzzard> isn't exactly helpful that the library for that chip doesn't include alarm functions. i had to write direct register access functions into it to even read/write the alarm stuffs.
[11:06:41] <TheMightyBuzzard> which i suppose is better than having a very abstracted function that's not working correctly since i can use the new function to see precisely what's happening or not.
[11:27:05] <TheMightyBuzzard> blarg. perl version upgrade this time around. extra hoops.

[13:07:33] <pinchy> 75F in the office and everyones is "waah its too hawt"
[13:07:54] <pinchy> 68F its then "waaah its too cold"
[13:43:48] <AndyTheAbsurd> Sounds like...pretty much all the snowbird territories.

[14:13:29] <Bytram> Sulla -- looks like an Anonymous Coward gave you a subscription on 2016-09-11 which has since expired (1 year later on 2017-09-11)
[14:14:44] <Bytram> well got an appointment this am and some errands to run... hope to check back later today

[15:03:15] <Marius> Bytram - thanks. I was out smoking a cigar last night talking to a buddy about Soylent. Complained about the soylent conspiracy to tell people who havent subscribed that their subscriptions are expired to guilt them into signing up. Told me that the conspiracy might be closer than I think.
[15:03:22] <Marius> Figure ill reup in a paycheck or do

[21:38:40] <Bytram> ;)
[21:40:45] <chromas> You're oppressing differently abled minds with your problematic problems. Showing your work is a social construct designed by the white cishet patriarchy to deride trans-PoCs
