--- Day changed Thu Nov 26 2009 00:04 < ybit> how are you two checking out each others' branches (sounds gay and dirty doesn't it)? 00:05 < ybit> each pushes to master and selectively pulls what he wants.. 00:05 < katsmeow-afk> ybit, if a couple people show up at the airport to pickyou up...... 00:05 < ybit> ..? 00:07 < ybit> at some point, i don't see how this model is sustainable when you have someone like myself committing stupid changes 00:07 < ybit> 691:om: skdb tutorials 00:07 < ybit> sound more like a wishlist than a bug 00:08 < ybit> s/wishlist/todo 00:10 < fenn> ooh can i be the shifty looking fellow with a caterpillar mustache and patent leather shoes? 00:10 < katsmeow-afk> who taps his feet with a wide stance? 00:11 < CIA-33> skdb: kanzure * r c9a172b /.be/bugs/099b9ca7-eca6-4bc1-a3a8-9cbf1417a7e9/values: more bug reports 00:11 < kanzure> ybit: just be sure to pull before you commit (not before you push) 00:11 < fenn> anyway the branch thing.. if you have a lot of people all committing to the same branch and you hate each other, that's a recipe for disaster; a management problem not a technical problem 00:12 < fenn> you can merge branches later if necessary. if you think your changes are dumb and awful and yet you feel the need to commit to someone else's repo, put it on a branch 00:12 < fenn> cherry picking is more for bug fixes and such 00:13 < kanzure> ybit: technically the bug id for that is just 691, the ":om:" is some attribute info i think 00:18 < fenn> why is the bug id 691? 00:19 < fenn> gah 00:19 < fenn> be is not backward compatible 00:21 < fenn> why didn't you use the version in debian? 00:21 < fenn> wtf 00:21 < fenn> *pout* 00:21 < kanzure> here we go.. 00:22 < fenn> can i file a meta bug report? 00:23 < kanzure> only between the hours of 1 and 2 pm 00:23 < fenn> also i'm not sure what the advantages of a bug tracker are over the current todo list 00:24 < fenn> or writing unit tests 00:24 < fenn> oh well. /me resigns to the fate of seeing a bunch of .be/51b1ossadf09gf0klk24kl every fommit 00:24 < fenn> s/fommit/pull/ 00:24 < kanzure> fommit :) heh 00:25 < kanzure> blah all these people are dudes: http://www.last.fm/user/kanzure/neighbours 00:26 < kanzure> and they're all from sweden, finland and germany 00:26 < genehacker> that's where the techno is at 00:26 < ybit> yup 00:27 < fenn> the only chicks who dig heavy metal live in seattle 00:27 < genehacker> ugh one of them is a furry 00:28 < fenn> hehe a hot pink mustache furry 00:28 < kanzure> this guy scares the shit out of me: http://userserve-ak.last.fm/serve/126/1079595.jpg 00:29 < genehacker> is that a song from k-on in your playlist? 00:29 < ybit> http://ybit.ath.cx/skdb/ is where my git repo lies for anyone who wants to watch me fuck it up in a somewhat live viewing 00:29 < genehacker> it is 00:29 < genehacker> I am disappoint 00:29 < fenn> kanzure: that's not very scary 00:30 < ybit> that guy reminds me of a person whom we couldn't figure out if it was a dude or girl.. then we saw boobs.. but we still weren't convinced 00:30 < kanzure> what is k-on? 00:30 < fenn> a time-like virtual particle? 00:31 < genehacker> dear god 00:31 < genehacker> it's an anime that you should avoid 00:31 < fenn> hm i seem to have slipped into a time line in which physicists havent yet discovered kaons.. 00:32 < fenn> oh there it is, nevermind 00:32 < kanzure> ybit: please run git update-server-info 00:32 < genehacker> dang it how the heck do I play songs on last.fm 00:32 < genehacker> nvm 00:32 < ybit> kanzure: done 00:32 < genehacker> I get it 00:32 < ybit> katsmeow-afk: thanks for mentioning the minerva reefs 00:32 < genehacker> FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFuuuuuuuuu 00:33 < genehacker> you listened to the K-on theme 00:33 < katsmeow-afk> 00:33 < genehacker> oh dear 00:33 < kanzure> ybit: doesn't look like you've committed anything 00:33 < katsmeow-afk> there's similar reefs ~100 miles west ofSan Diego 00:33 < katsmeow-afk> well, similar in use, but diff geology 00:34 < kanzure> i don't think last.fm is actually doing any computations here 00:34 < kanzure> it seems to be basically what you've listened to the most 00:34 < kanzure> but if you've listened to a million songs from another category, they don't count for anything 00:34 < kanzure> unless they're from the same artist 00:34 < katsmeow-afk> Begg Rock , Islas San Benito , Cotes Bank, Tanner Bank, are all volcanic 00:34 < kanzure> and this determines who your "neighbors" are 00:35 < genehacker> oh that was when you listened to anime radio 00:35 < genehacker> you're safe 00:35 < katsmeow-afk> Alijos Rocks etc 00:35 < genehacker> heh that creepy dude looks like that guy from dethklok 00:35 < kanzure> squiggles? 00:35 < kanzure> er 00:36 < genehacker> yeah that one 00:36 < kanzure> skiwsgaar skwigelf 00:36 < katsmeow-afk> and if you want a site with more ocean wave energy than you can possibly handle, there's a seamount 60ft under about 20 miles outside the usa eez, south of Alaska 00:36 < kanzure> skwisgaar 00:36 < genehacker> wave energy=FUCKING AWESOME 00:36 < kanzure> hah: http://naturesgraffiti.com/wp-content/uploads/2006/12/metalocalpyse.jpg 00:36 < genehacker> it's so extractable 00:36 < katsmeow-afk> there's a few tothe west of Vancouver too, but they are "protected" 00:37 < fenn> high altitude kites blow wave power out of the water!!!11 00:37 < genehacker> actually they don't 00:37 < katsmeow-afk> genehacker, 220 miles south of Alaska, we are talking 30ft waves are the norm 00:37 < genehacker> it's just that wavepower isn't everywhere 00:37 < genehacker> seems dangerous 00:38 < katsmeow-afk> i said it was more than you cold handle 00:38 < katsmeow-afk> oh, and it's cold 00:38 < genehacker> the waves 00:38 < fenn> which is cooler: surfing, or wind surfing? 00:38 < genehacker> dang it, I think I experienced some 00:38 < katsmeow-afk> you cold have megawatts of power to keep warm with if you cold keep the wave-energy-collector from falling to bits 00:38 < genehacker> wave power's cheaper than high alt wind at this point 00:39 < fenn> wtf how could it possibly be cheaper 00:39 < genehacker> the rubber snake approach might work 00:39 < fenn> a kit is made of cloth and strings 00:39 < ybit> so what's the itinerary for dec. 3? options are: a.) show me the shop b.) show me something interesting at ut.austin c.) lounge around grubbing on whatever is available or a really sweet restaurant (yo fenn, raw vegan buddy o'pal.. anything you and kanzure care for)... or go over the last option go over the presentation.. or all of it.. 00:39 < genehacker> it generates so much 00:39 < genehacker> or it's on par with high altitude wind 00:39 < katsmeow-afk> and, there's a methane leak from the ocean floor off LA, enough i figure for 4 megawatts electrical just by anchoring a hood over the seep and attaching a hose tothe surface 00:39 < ybit> s/the last option// 00:39 < genehacker> heh 00:40 < genehacker> you could also get some from the petroleum seeps 00:40 < genehacker> where petroleum naturally seeps to the surface 00:40 < katsmeow-afk> or sunken ships, some have been slowly leaking since ww2 00:40 < ybit> the only guy who teaches systema ( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Systema ) is in l.a. btw 00:40 < genehacker> and feeds whole underwater ecosystems 00:40 < fenn> i vote for fenn sleeping in then waking up at the last minute and packing madly 00:40 < ybit> the only who who i can find that teaches in the u.s. 00:41 < ybit> +guy 00:41 < genehacker> whole ecosystems powered by petroleum 00:41 * katsmeow-afk nods 00:42 < genehacker> dammit why do we have to be shooting carbon into the atmosphere 00:42 < genehacker> why can't we just make it into stuff 00:42 < katsmeow-afk> i wonder what a floating barge off LA could do with 4 megawatts 00:42 < genehacker> power a 4 megawatt pirate radio 00:42 < genehacker> power a 4 megawatt supercomputer 00:43 < katsmeow-afk> genehacker, same reason the humans here burn so much garbage the air here smells like a medical plastics incinerator 00:43 < fenn> drive itself somewhere better than LA 00:43 < genehacker> where? 00:43 < katsmeow-afk> yea, where? 00:43 < genehacker> then they are burning them inefficiently 00:44 < katsmeow-afk> of course they are, it's open piles on the ground, or burn barrels with no vents for air to make actual "burning" occur 00:44 < genehacker> that's bad 00:44 < genehacker> that' 00:45 < fenn> i wonder why kite-based sailboats never got huge in the 1700's 00:45 < genehacker> why? 00:45 < katsmeow-afk> as long as the populace is of this caliber, there's o way to stop the powerco burning coal to pump it in as much as they want 00:45 < genehacker> control systems, lack of cheap strong lightweight fabric, inertia 00:45 < katsmeow-afk> fenn, commercia schedules and the cost of hiring a sailing crew that contribues best 30% of your propulsion 00:45 < genehacker> burning plastic is how you make nasty dioxins 00:45 < fenn> sailor = control system, already had cheap strong canvas, which is light enough 00:46 < katsmeow-afk> genehacker, I KNOW 00:46 < katsmeow-afk> DAMNED caps lok 00:46 < genehacker> it's ok 00:46 < katsmeow-afk> i gotta pop all those extra keys of all these new keybds 00:46 < fenn> one huge kite has got to be easier to deal with than those ridiculous masts and fifty little sails everywhere 00:47 < genehacker> what do you do about the kite during a storm? 00:47 < katsmeow-afk> until you haveto fish it out of the water 00:47 < fenn> naw it has little boats as landing gear 00:47 < genehacker> anyway, I sure your average sailor of back then isn't going to trust a kite 00:48 < katsmeow-afk> "the sail's taken leave of th emast, cap'n!" 00:48 < genehacker> masts work pretty well 00:49 < genehacker> have you ever been sailing fenn? 00:49 < katsmeow-afk> nppe, never sailed a fenn 00:49 < katsmeow-afk> oops 00:49 < ybit> http://google.com/trends?q=open+hardware&ctab=1680238952&geo=all&date=all 00:50 < ybit> http://google.com/trends?q=open+source+hardware%2C+open+hardware&ctab=0&geo=all&date=all&sort=0 00:50 * katsmeow-afk sailed lil Scorpions and Sunfish in the mid 1970's 00:50 < katsmeow-afk> on the ocean 00:51 < katsmeow-afk> out of sight of land, even 00:51 < katsmeow-afk> "well, the sun is going down, and that's west, that's land, i think i'llfollow it,, fast" 00:51 < ybit> odd, linux has a downward slope as well: http://google.com/trends?q=linux&ctab=0&geo=all&date=all&sort=0 00:52 < ybit> i don't know what to take from that when we know that the adoption of gnu linux is increasing 00:53 < genehacker> never sailed? 00:53 < fenn> fenns are bad places to sail.. lots of muck and tangly stuff 00:54 < genehacker> last.fm sucks 00:55 < genehacker> it doesn't have any of the obscure music I listen to 00:55 < fenn> why do you need last.fm if you listen to obscure music 00:55 < genehacker> I'm playing around with it 00:56 < fenn> just set your music player to shuffle 00:56 < genehacker> on last.fm? 00:57 < fenn> no, the one you have previously stocked with your obscure music 00:57 * katsmeow-afk has decided to go get pizza for tomorrow, and chocolate, eggnog, PB&J , since it's 1am and there's likely parking places 00:57 < genehacker> I CAN'T STAND THE RANDOMNESS 00:57 < genehacker> errr... I don't know how to torrent safely 00:57 < fenn> katsmeow-afk: i endorse your decision 00:58 < fenn> do me a favor and stand around in the aisle staring at nothing for 20 minutes 00:58 < genehacker> why? 00:58 < fenn> optionally, lay on the floor and make dust angels 00:58 < fenn> because it's 1 am and i can do whatever i want 00:59 < genehacker> pics or it didn't happen 00:59 < fenn> it didnt happen 00:59 < genehacker> ok 01:00 * fenn wonders if he feels like riding 3 miles in the dark to see if les is in the shop so i can get my components 01:01 < genehacker> why ride in the dark when you can make it not dark with some horrendously bright 1 watt LEDs 01:01 < fenn> because my horrendously bright 1 watt LEDs are in the shop 01:01 < genehacker> are they luxeon LEDs? 01:01 < fenn> i forget. maybe 01:02 < genehacker> are they white or are you going with green-blue because that's what humans see best 01:03 < fenn> white of course 01:03 < fenn> green-blue is just obnoxious.. washes out your night vision 01:03 < kanzure> i have a horrendously large flashlight somewhere around here 01:04 < genehacker> but it let's you see so much more 01:04 < genehacker> halogen or something? 01:04 < fenn> for beating people with mostly 01:04 < genehacker> or is it a nuclear fusion incandescent illuminator 01:05 < fenn> i have a pocket flashlight that is 5-10x brighter than that 01:06 < genehacker> components for what? 01:06 < fenn> wearable 01:06 < genehacker> the beagleboard case? 01:06 < fenn> and so i dont have to chop up my only keyboard 01:07 < genehacker> don't you have keyboard pants? 01:07 < genehacker> or is that what you are making? 01:07 < fenn> i need to get my batteries and charger and soldering iron and probably a zillion things which i am never going to remember 01:08 < fenn> havent figured out what to do for the beagleboard case yet 01:08 < genehacker> if you have access to the UT soldering lab... 01:08 < fenn> i'm not going to a 'soldering lab' 01:08 < fenn> you kids are so spoiled you dont even know what to do 01:09 * fenn grumbles 01:09 < genehacker> I tried tinning it but the solder just won't stick 01:09 < genehacker> you could cast it out of aluminum 01:10 < fenn> just stop while you're ahead ok?
