[14:27:50] <halibut> RandomFactor: Location: Jezero Crater Weather: ... Humidity: 82%, Precip: 10% ... Did you just find water on Mars? (less impressive for Mars in PA, USA, Earth, I suppose.)
[14:30:12] <requerdanos> So, is mars a region for which data isn't provided by the backend weather provider, or is it a question of being able to accurately specify location?
[14:33:12] <halibut> Jezero Crater is about 49 km across. Perhaps the location was not specific enough?
[14:36:34] <halibut> I take that back. The largest zip code on Earth is apparently 89049, at 10,000 mi^2, which is significantly larger.
[14:37:46] <FatPhil> alaska?
[14:37:59] <requerdanos> that was my guess as well
[14:38:17] <FatPhil> How much did the act of assigning it a code improve that zone?
[14:40:28] -!- AzumaHazuki [AzumaHazuki!~hazuki@the.end.of.time] has joined #soylent
[14:42:17] <halibut> Apparently it is in Nevada, but non-contiguous. See https://www.google.com
[14:42:19] <systemd> ^ 03Google Maps
[14:43:50] <FatPhil> USPS says: Land Area 1,744.96 sq mi
[14:46:19] <FatPhil> actually, that's not USPS, that's just some rando website with some official-looking logos that fooled me
[14:47:06] <halibut> I think I found that same site (unitedstateszipcodes?). This was my source: https://www.npr.org
[14:47:06] <systemd> ^ 03The ZIP Code Turns 50 Today; Here Are 9 That Stand Out
[14:47:56] <halibut> This site also gives over 10,000 mi^2: https://www.zipdatamaps.com
[14:52:31] <halibut> 10,000 mi^2 is equivalent to a circle about 100 mi in diameter, which would almost completely encompass the zip code as seen on Google Maps. The fill factor is significantly under 100%, so I am more inclined to believe the 1,700 mi^2 value.
[14:53:41] <requerdanos> Well, that's perhaps just two ways of looking at the same thing. It could be a zip code sprawling across 10,000 mi^2 that contains 1745 mi^2.
[14:58:18] <FatPhil> 'The smallest zip code is 00906 which is only 0.0032 sq. miles. In contrast, the largest zip code is 99557 with a huge area of 13,431 sq. miles.'
[14:58:32] <FatPhil> alaska?
[14:58:40] <FatPhil> Oh noes! Time loop!
[14:58:42] <requerdanos> that was my guess as well
[15:01:00] <halibut> Yes. That is in Alaska, and it's dimensions make it look much more like over 10,000 mi^2.
[15:01:16] <halibut> Where did you find that?
[15:01:19] <FatPhil> And that area is larger than Vancouver Island, for reference
[15:01:33] <FatPhil> But beware projections, they can distort
[15:03:15] <requerdanos> Like Jezero Crater, Vancouver Island doesn't have a zip code, though not for exactly the same reason
[15:04:19] <halibut> Google Maps has a measuring feature. The majority of the zip code appears to be rectangular with dimensions ~100 mi x ~70 mi, and another two pieces that look like they could form a square over 40 mi on a side, which is at least the right order of magnitude.
[15:06:18] <halibut> As an aside, the Space Weather site has a neat picture that looks like an airplane splashed the sun: https://spaceweather.com
[15:06:44] <halibut> Apparently lit the engines on fire, too.
[15:08:42] <requerdanos> oh, that tricky word "apparently"
[15:09:51] <FatPhil> looks like it just clipped the edge of ot!
[15:09:53] <FatPhil> it, even
[15:10:07] <halibut> One could argue that the engines really are on fire -- they are jet engines, after all.

[16:59:01] <carny> we need constant weather reports from mars to protect matt damon
[16:59:20] <requerdanos> I think that was not a real thing, he may not actually be on mars
[16:59:47] <requerdanos> if he is though, couldn't he report the weather better than any other person alive though, huh?
[17:00:46] <FatPhil> dude, that was faked, everyone knows that
[17:02:08] <carny> you all sound like 'q anon' conspiracy people
[17:02:22] <carny> matt damon wouldn't lie to us
[17:10:49] <RandomFactor> Maybe a little groping after he gets enough beer in him though
[17:13:59] <carny> has he been me-too'd too?
[17:15:15] <requerdanos> isn't matt damon a deep undercover secret agent or something, therefore at that level it's not even lying; it's alternative reality
[17:15:21] <RandomFactor> I think he was at some point, not sure what ever came of it
[17:17:11] <RandomFactor> Oh right he said there was a 'sexual violence spectrum' (you know, the whole beating and raping someone is different than checking out their gams as they leave the room misconception) and that got them all over him
[17:23:58] <requerdanos> Does the existence of /dev/dsp imply that there is "a dsp" as opposed to many possible ones? Or is it just a systemwide declaration of a default dsp? I know this system has at least three (an HDMI TV, onboard sound, and usb headset)

[23:16:57] <Bytram> hmmm, I idea
[23:17:19] <Bytram> hth, but thank chromas for his nifty too!
[23:17:23] <Bytram> hth, but thank chromas for his nifty tool\!
[23:18:00] <FatPhil> oooh, I completely missed chromas' frist pots
[23:18:09] <FatPhil> chromas++ too
[23:18:09] <Bender> karma - chromas: 300
[23:18:16] * chromas is honored to have his tool mentioned
[23:18:43] <Bytram> !grab chromas
[23:18:43] <Bender> Added quote 984
[23:19:26] <chromas> !quote -1
[23:19:26] <Bender> Quote -1 - <chromas> You couuld try sshing in
[23:19:29] <chromas> teehee
[23:21:09] <Bytram> is there a key-combo to bring up a non-xwindow terminal?
[23:22:35] <chromas> You can ctrl-alt-F-key to switch between (text-mode) virtual terminals and your X session
[23:22:48] <chromas> Not sure what happens if you're running Wayland though
[23:24:20] <Bytram> F as in the letter "F" ??
[23:24:37] <chromas> function keys
[23:24:51] <Bytram> I've got 12 of em
[23:25:02] <chromas> like ctrl-alt-F1 goes to the first terminal
[23:25:24] <chromas> X used to be on 7 but with systemd it's often on 1. Then other numbers will get you different terminals
[23:26:00] <Bytram> tried 'em all, nothing happened
[23:26:41] <chromas> Can you ssh in from another box?
[23:26:55] <Bytram> nope
[23:27:07] <Bytram> well, I gave up.
[23:27:08] <chromas> You might have to look up the ip in your access point or use nmap or something
[23:27:23] <Bytram> held power key for 5 seconds.
[23:27:31] <Bytram> not on a network
[23:27:39] <chromas> oh yeah, I've been having issues with this ancient Dell lap I started using. Suspending gives me a blank screen
[23:27:55] <chromas> Maybe it's the same issue. It also did it earlier without suspending though
[23:28:03] * Bytram has a Latitude E6410
[23:28:36] <TheMightyBuzzard> FatPhil, yeah, it did make me laff
[23:28:48] * TheMightyBuzzard waits patiently on dinner to cool down
[23:28:56] <Bytram> chromas: I appreciate the help!
[23:29:08] * chromas gives TheMightyBuzzard the spicy keys
[23:29:19] <chromas> I'm booting it now to see if there's anything in the logs
[23:29:29] <TheMightyBuzzard> chromas, Bytram, suspend and hibernate are for chumps. so is powering off unless there's a storm coming.
[23:29:31] <Bytram> HUH! It came back up to how I left it!
[23:30:04] <Bytram> laptop batteries do not last forever
[23:30:49] <Bytram> chromas: sudo systemctl hibernate
[23:30:50] <chromas> Maybe you accidentally hibernated
[23:30:55] <Bytram> correct?
[23:31:17] <TheMightyBuzzard> FatPhil, since actual discrimination is illegal, if you say publicly that you've been discriminating, that's admitting to a crime and the DOE and possibly the DOJ more or less have to get involved.
[23:31:21] <chromas> yeah. you may not need sudo if you're running it from the laptop
[23:31:34] <chromas> but you need it if you're logged in remotely. probably depends on a setting somewhere
[23:32:42] <TheMightyBuzzard> okay, hungry. i'm eating it even if the cheese does still resemble molten lava.
[23:32:44] <chromas> eh I'll look at it later. Time to leave
[23:33:01] <Bytram> I had tried to suspend it when it seemed to get locked up.
[23:33:15] <Bytram> chromas: systemctl hibernate worked thi9stime
[23:33:32] <Bytram> chromas: thanks so much for the help!
[23:33:33] <chromas> Suspend goes to low power state with stuff still in ram; hibernate flushes to swap and power off
[23:33:47] <chromas> you probably knew that but I had to fill up the channel with something :)
[23:33:51] <chromas> you're welcomes
[23:34:26] <Bytram> yes, I knew that, but was hoping that when it was suspended, and the resumed, it would then be able to successfully hibernate
