[15:53:13] * exec presumably scissors a hugbox of g'day juice for cmn32480
[15:53:19] <boru> I'll take gtk over qt.
[15:56:18] <boru> But aren't you able to set your default output?
[15:56:36] <cmn32480> ~gday TheMightyBuzzard
[15:56:36] <chromas> I was looking up why firefox does PC speaker beep and apparently it's been a gtk thing (pidgin, guhnome terminal too) for many a year. qt is great because the themes are better :D
[15:56:38] * exec diarrhetically pits satchel of litter box tootsie rolls against TheMightyBuzzard
[15:58:18] <boru> If you were using a Real System™, you could do `cat /dev/sndstat`, pick the right one, and then `sysctl hw.snd.default_unit=N`
[15:58:58] <chromas> Regular sound works, it's juts for alerts like "phrase not found" in page search
[15:58:58] <boru> It's not a gtk special. It'll just use the default.
[15:59:18] <chromas> M A X I M U M B E E P
[16:00:04] <boru> You're using lennux, right?
[16:00:16] <boru> You should be able to set your default device in your alsa config.
[16:01:13] <boru> Unless that's been consumed as a service, now as well.
[16:01:16] <chromas> I am. I've scrolled a few forums. The usual fix is just to disable the PC speaker, which doesn't fix the problem (beep instead of playing the proper alert noise)
[16:01:53] <TheMightyBuzzard> things soylentnews.org loads faster than: facebook, twitter, amazon, google...
[16:01:58] <chromas> I disabled it; it's good enough, but still dumb
[16:02:18] <boru> My guess is that it's device 0, as enumerated by your system.
[16:03:03] <chromas> TheMightyBuzzard: but only since two days ago
[16:03:05] * TheMightyBuzzard pastes a bunch of ^Gs to the channel
[16:03:18] <boru> It no surprise that SN does; it doesn't load crap from N endpoints, content isn't the equivalent size of the Doom shareware etc.
[16:03:33] <TheMightyBuzzard> larger.
[16:03:36] <chromas> Do it. My irc client isn't gtk so it uses real alert noises, but probably doesn't support ^G anyway
[16:05:10] <TheMightyBuzzard> doom shareware fit on two floppies. facebook would take six or seven even if you don't scroll down and load more entries.
[16:05:33] <chromas> How many floppies does an SN page need?
[16:05:43] <boru> I would also like to know.
[16:05:45] <TheMightyBuzzard> less than one
[16:05:48] <boru> I am guessing one.
[16:05:50] <boru> Yeah.
[16:05:59] <chromas> Is that double-sided double-density? or high-density?
[16:06:10] <boru> 1.44MB, you silly billy.
[16:06:13] * chromas formats with commodore 64
[16:06:30] <TheMightyBuzzard> you could fit about ten on a floppy even if you pulled the images for each copy
[16:07:19] <TheMightyBuzzard> mind you, i have topic images turned off so i dunno what they cost
[16:07:25] <TheMightyBuzzard> smoke break
[16:07:25] <TheMightyBuzzard> nicotine++
[16:07:25] <Bender> karma - nicotine: 685
[16:07:29] <boru> What are topic images?
[16:07:33] <chromas> The source has more whitespace than a beta python program
[16:07:51] <chromas> boru: the little icons at the top of the main page
[16:07:54] <boru> Isn't that the set of all python programs?
[16:08:01] <chromas> or all the pages I guess
[16:08:13] * boru enables images
[16:08:18] <boru> Well, wouldn't you know...
[16:08:29] <chromas> Yes. By the transitive property, soylent is all python programs
[16:08:57] <chromas> I guess you meant the beta part
[16:10:01] <chromas> These icons are too shiny and colored. We need the new Fluent/Material/Metro monochrome icons
[16:18:01] <Bender> [SoylentNews] - European Union Article 13 is Almost Final - http://sylnt.us - triskaidekaphobia?
[16:19:12] <chromas> I like the part where it tells me what that is
[16:20:59] <chromas> I guess it doesn't apply to soylent because we don't profit from the copyrighted content we post
[16:21:33] <chromas> or...do we?
[16:24:30] <TheMightyBuzzard> chromas, the extra whitespace is for python guys so they can pretty it up without having to use their own.
[16:25:19] <chromas> I guess that makes sense. Then they can just import soylent. Dependencies on random websites sounds more like a javacsript thing though
[17:04:36] <fyngyrz> The coding geek in me _really_ wants to write soylent in Python :)
[17:05:31] <fyngyrz> One hurdle is I don't know all that soylent can do
[17:05:49] <fyngyrz> and I think to do it right, I'd need to know before I wrote any code
[17:06:13] <fyngyrz> But I have ideas that are trying to get out
[17:07:48] <fyngyrz> Probably should do it in Python3, too... I don't even have that installed
[17:08:14] <fyngyrz> like I _need_ another months-long project, lol
[17:22:19] <chromas> Start off by building a framework that does everything, then go from there
[17:22:34] <chromas> linsoylent.so
[17:22:38] <chromas> s/n/b/
[17:22:40] <exec> <chromas> libsoylent.so
[17:24:11] <chromas> There used to be a library called libtard. I wonder what happene to it. I think it was for sound
