[00:01:56] * fyngyrz yawns
[00:01:56] * MrPlow flips a Skittle into fyngyrz's gaping mouth
[00:02:08] <fyngyrz> just skittles, then, I suppose
[00:03:10] <AzumaHazuki> don't give the bot any ideas
[00:03:19] <fyngyrz> lol
[00:03:31] <fyngyrz> seems ripe for... ideas
[00:03:48] <fyngyrz> I have replied to one of your posts with some of my artwork
[00:04:02] <fyngyrz> such as it is
[00:04:32] * fyngyrz is not actually that kind of artist
[00:04:46] * fyngyrz but isn't afraid to try
[00:22:49] <AzumaHazuki> lol, just saw it
[00:22:55] <AzumaHazuki> you draw wayyyy better than me don't worry
[00:24:30] <AzumaHazuki> i've only ever been able to draw one thing, it took a week, i had a reference, and i've never been able to draw so much as a stick figure since
[00:31:56] <AzumaHazuki> also i had to freaking trace part of the head because i've never seen that hairstyle in the real world before ><
[00:38:36] <fyngyrz> That's one of the t-shirt designs I sell to fund my website
[00:40:20] <AzumaHazuki> i like it :) and there is precedent ("blessed are the cheesemakers") after all
[00:41:16] <fyngyrz> right, right.
[00:42:06] <fyngyrz> Cheeses is very popular with crackers, I understand.
[00:42:28] <AzumaHazuki> oh yeah :v
[00:42:37] * AzumaHazuki lives in Wisconsin, knows all about it
[01:15:06] <FatPhil> So, was McCartneyism just a backlash against Lennonism?
[01:17:49] <AzumaHazuki> oh gods, i come back from shaving various bits to that one? XD

[12:13:19] <FatPhil> Since when was this a sensible switch to a program!??!? "Don't show progress meter or error messages."
[12:14:04] <FatPhil> in what way are informational messages telling you that it's doing what you asked it to do in the same class as the message that tells you when shit gets fucked up?
[12:19:01] <TheMightyBuzzard> coffee++
[12:19:01] <Bender> karma - coffee: 4619
[12:19:51] <TheMightyBuzzard> FatPhil, error messages are scary to lusers. they prefer things to crash without knowing why.
[12:21:30] * TheMightyBuzzard scratches his chin and ponders
[12:24:41] <TheMightyBuzzard> you know, i was just thinking about the anti-mod-bomb code that's been planned for ages. what if instead of stopping 5+ downmods to the same person we slap a thumbnail of something like https://i.ytimg.com on their posts for a week to warn everyone of their level of butthurt?
[12:31:14] <Bytram> coffee++
[12:31:14] <Bender> karma - coffee: 4620
[12:34:25] <Bytram> FatPhil: if you have levels of (1) show me errors (2) show me warnings (3) show me informational messages (4) show me nothing (just give me a return code)
[12:34:58] <Bytram> choose different verbosity levels depending on how much of the program you want to do, essentially, printf's of its progress.
[12:35:14] <Bytram> I dunno, but that's my take on the concept
[12:39:55] <chromas> The notes field in the subs queue could use some better unicode support so I can properly 🤣 on aris subs :)

[12:50:43] * TheMightyBuzzard yawns
[12:50:43] * MrPlow flips a Skittle into TheMightyBuzzard's gaping mouth
[12:51:07] <Web_weasel> You choke to death.
[12:51:19] <Web_weasel> Would you like your possesions identified? (Y/N)
[12:55:18] <chromas> TMB's possessions: 1 Skittle(s)
[12:55:59] <TheMightyBuzzard> chromas, forgot the piles and piles of fishing gear but i don't blame you for not wanting to type it all out
[12:58:45] <chromas> You weren't supposed to notice
[12:58:52] * chromas sneaks off with the gear
[13:00:52] <TheMightyBuzzard> it's okay, i planned to have a viking funeral in my boat anyway. it's aluminum and there's not really anything in it that'll burn except the anchor rope and the tie off rope, so if i come back as a zombie i can still totally run jug lines.
[13:01:50] <TheMightyBuzzard> current poll's been up over a month
[13:02:06] <Bytram> TheMightyBuzzard: we were talking a while ago about calculate linux... I don't need a lot of eye candy (prefer performance over pretty), so would xfce do the trick? See: https://www.calculate-linux.org
[13:02:06] <chromas> Isn't vikings burning their boats fake news?
[13:02:09] <upstart> ^ 03Download
[13:02:54] <chromas> lxde/lxqt if you want even lighter desktop
[13:03:05] <TheMightyBuzzard> Bytram, should do, yep. or lxqt. xfce is a little heavier but a much older and better fleshed out de.
[13:03:32] <Bytram> TheMightyBuzzard: I was just thinking we needed a new poll... Who will be the first commercial company to send people to the ISS? SpaceX? Boeing? Other (specify in comments)
[13:03:38] <Bytram> good to know
[13:03:44] * Bytram likes stable
[13:04:13] * chromas horses around
[13:04:15] <TheMightyBuzzard> i'd say give em both a look since you can install whichever didn't come with it after the fact
[13:04:47] <Bytram> annnnd, a noobie question? I assume that "686" == 32-bit and "x86-64" == 64 bit ??
[13:04:55] <TheMightyBuzzard> yep
[13:04:55] <chromas> yes
[13:05:00] <Bytram> =)
[13:05:15] <Bytram> x86-64 it is, then.
[13:05:45] <TheMightyBuzzard> like install from the xfce version then sudo emerge --ask lxqt-meta
[13:05:47] <Bytram> will be downloading this to my phone when I get to work: https://mirror.umd.edu
[13:06:06] <TheMightyBuzzard> sounds good
[13:06:13] <Bytram> yays!
[13:06:34] <Bytram> then I'll need a USB stick to load it on, and then make it bootable.
[13:07:07] <TheMightyBuzzard> most any docs for gentoo will work fine for calculate but if you want to know about calculate-specific additions you can ask me or read their docs
[13:07:58] <TheMightyBuzzard> scuse me whilst i text NCommander and ask him to pay our ramnode bill pretty please
