fennwurrble02:53
fenni was playing with curved spaces and other hyperbolic games: http://geometrygames.org/02:54
fennneed to get it to compile on linux so i can hook up joystick support02:54
fenni'd like to make a virtual reality of some sort based on this code, eventually02:56
fennlow priority atm02:56
fennit's GPL02:56
fennStee|: there have been numerous conversations about modeling the reprap melting/extrusion/solidifcation process but afaik nobody has actually done any modeling03:00
fennthere are a lot of poorly understood processes going on03:00
fennnophead's been doing a lot of work on the melting part03:00
fennthen you get to deal with non-newtonian fluid flow, shear stress, thermally induced stress, and plain old viscosity03:01
fennthese things tend to make the part come out differently than as designed03:01
fennbut they're all perfectly repeatable03:01
fennalso i havent looked at reprap for 6 months or so03:02
fennhum, inositol is involved in serotonin activity modulation03:11
fennwish there was a citation for that03:11
fennhttp://inositolpage.blogspot.com/03:13
fennis there a psychopharmaceutical simulator? for automatically warning about drug interactions03:15
fennwow google really needs a "-1" button03:25
fennThe ethanol is separated from the lecithin sludge, after which the ethanol is removed by evaporation to obtain a phosphatidylcholine-enriched lecithin fraction.03:30

fennmy typing speed varies from 75 (typespeed) to 150 (gtypist)04:25
fenni sense a discrepancy04:25
fennaverage ~115 on typeracer04:25
foucistgtypist is probably less accurate then!04:26
foucisthave you tested your typing speed locally04:26
fennwhat do you mean?04:26
foucistcompared to via websites04:26
fenntypespeed and gtypist are command line programs04:26
foucistah04:26
fenni just think it's odd that there's no de facto standard typing test04:27
fennand that they can vary by a factor of two04:27
fenni dont get why this section is here at all http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nootropics#Recreational_drugs04:30
foucistfenn: hmm, it's not written out very well, needs to be fleshed out/re-organized/explained better etc04:32
foucistbut it makes sense that a certain subset of nootropics are atually 'recreational drugs'04:32
fennbut not a single one is listed there04:33
foucistdamn, that wikipedia entry doesn't mention vitamin C.. or sugar04:33
fennum. why am i talking to you.04:33
foucistfenn: because i know more about nootropics than you? jk04:34
foucistand anyways, why are you talking to me?!04:34
fenndunno i have stuff to do04:34
foucistah04:35
fennlike order some vitamins for example :P04:35
foucisti need to get some EFA & PAGG pronto!04:36
foucistmaybe in a year!04:36
fenn" The book includes an interesting story of how Tim came to investigate the benefits of garlic involving a homeless man."04:39
fennheh i've thought about doing this04:39
foucist:P04:42

AlonzoTGI'm too stupid to really understand physics.15:52
AlonzoTGThis neutrino discovery would be majorly revolutionary, so therefore I am waiting for some extremely strong proof that it is true.15:52
QuantumGumm.. you should wait for confirmation of all scientific experiments15:58
eudoxiaI want proof that it was an error just to spite the FTL people16:02
eudoxiaJesus so annoying16:02
QuantumGsure.. but what's important is that ALL results require confirmation.. not just the ones you happen to disagree with.16:03
-!- augur [~augur@129.2.129.32] has quit [Remote host closed the connection]16:08
eudoxiawhy of course16:12
eudoxiabut i hate how everyone thinks "hurp durp we ftl now finally i'll save the galaxy just like cuptain shepurd" over a single experiment after a century of confirmation after confirmation of relativity16:12
QuantumGits the breakthrough mentality16:14
Stee|eudoxia: I'm more interested in the reading I've been doing on Podkletnov/Tajmar/Heim/Poher forces16:16
Stee|not a lot of attention to them, unfortunately16:17

kanzurejrayhawk: hey bruce has proposed a way to do open hardware licensing: http://groups.google.com/group/openmanufacturing/browse_thread/thread/a449608fc8519b2f?hide_quotes=no#msg_23e85b39c33386d420:38
kanzureit seems to be a trademark play..20:39
kanzure(like OHANDA)20:40
jrayhawkHrm. Well, I guess that's better for an evangelistic effort.20:40
jrayhawkAnd trademark law is a lot easier to fight on.20:41
kanzurei would much rather have strict membership requirements20:42
kanzurewhere you are given a license to use the trademark as a member20:43
kanzureand as a member you vow to respect the requirements (release all dev files)20:43
-!- uniqanomaly [~ua@78.8.222.105] has quit [Quit: uniqanomaly]20:43
kanzureif you break or violate the rules as a member, you are instantly kicked out20:43
QuantumGthen you have to make people value the trademark20:43
kanzure'instantly' is too strong20:43
kanzurejrayhawk: it still seems a lot weaker or like the practical benefits aren't quite the same as GPL20:45
kanzureOHANDA is a simple trademarking scheme for open hardware.. so how is this one any better? (besides the fact that i trust bruce to get his act together in some legally sane way)20:45
jrayhawkWell, you're never going to get *all* of the desirable properties of the GPL20:45
kanzureso members of this 'contract co-op' will release their files on the web for viewing20:46
kanzure"derivatives are licensed through so-and-so co-op of which you must become a member to join and make derivatives"20:46
kanzureis that how it would go down?20:46
QuantumGjust sounds like proprietary licensing to me20:47
kanzurewell so is GPL... you assign your copyright to FSF or whatever20:48
kanzuream i making this up?20:51
jrayhawkThe copyright assignment part, mostly, yes.20:51
kanzurei am making it up?20:51
kanzureok i thought so20:51
jrayhawkThe FSF and maaaaaybe Canonical are the only freedom-oriented organizations that require copyright assignment that I can think of off the top of my head.20:52
jrayhawkMost of the rest are just blatant commercial dual-licensors.20:53
jrayhawkMost free software projects do not require copyright assignment.20:53
jrayhawkThat said, despite Bruce not having assigned copyright to the FSF, the FSF has still been using his code for their ham-fisted legal activism.20:54
kanzurewhat about linux20:54
kanzureare all of those devs assigning copyright somewhere?20:55
jrayhawkNope.20:55
kanzurenice20:55
jrayhawkLarge amounts of new code written for Linux are actually BSD-licensed, even.20:56
kanzurei think the problem with OHANDA is that they didn't go the licensing-a-trademark route20:57
kanzurethey just did here-is-a-trademark route20:57
klafkajrayhawk: you don't like FSF?20:59
jrayhawkNot most of it, no.20:59
klafkaoh woops i was thinking of eff20:59
klafkayeah fsf is definitely more controversial21:00
AlonzoTGoh, are you guys busy talking about [unspecified] again? =P21:01
AlonzoTGI can imagine the three of you meeting off-line, deciding on a topic, then agreeing to finish the conversation in this chat room, typing as much as humanly possible without revealing the context, motivation, or meaning of the conversation. =P21:02
jrayhawkSo I guess the trademark thing will help this concept get off the ground, but it makes things conceptually messier if we're aiming for an end-game of destroying the patent system.21:03
AlonzoTGwhat concept?21:03
AlonzoTGWhich trademark?21:03
jrayhawkthere is a link at the beginning of this conversation that provides the context for this conversation21:03
AlonzoTGmy computer is a bit blinky right now after being on-line for 30 days.21:04
AlonzoTGFor one thing, clicking on a link first brings up an error message, then a web browser, and then, finally, libreoffice.21:04
AlonzoTGthe last, for no discernable reason at all.21:04
jrayhawkThat said, I suspect the world would be more amenable to a pure patent/contract solution after having gotten used to a trademark/license/patent(/still possibly contract?) solution21:05
AlonzoTGI can't imagine how well a vastly accelerated upload's computer could possibly last more than a week or so.21:05
kanzureAlonzoTG: jokes on you for clicking on shit21:05

kanzurereal men don't click links they either type the url from memory or don't21:06
kanzurealso, have you considered using wget, curl, links2 or lynx?21:06
AlonzoTGoh, open hardware.21:06
AlonzoTGI tried my hand on that last week.21:06
AlonzoTGI couldn't find an EDA tool capable of finishing my PCB layout the way I needed it... You're welcome to look at my schematics though.21:06
jrayhawkSo I guess I'm in support.21:06
kanzureAlonzoTG: how about geda?21:07
AlonzoTGI think I tried that,21:07
AlonzoTGvery messy system.21:07
AlonzoTGMy computer is a bit blinky right now because I had 3 versions of libpng, and some of my most critical software required a specific version,21:08
AlonzoTGIt's in the process of repairing itself.21:08
AlonzoTGAlso, my main window manager broke on my right monitor so I'm just using twm over there... It's barely usable. =P21:08
kanzurejrayhawk: i don't think you can use trademarks to construct something more valuable than a patent21:10
jrayhawkhaha a google search for "Bruce Perense does not speak for me" comes up with perens.com/resources/speaking/ "Inviting Bruce Perens To Speak At Your Conference"21:10
kanzure"his views are expressly his own"21:11
