| kwadroke | module000: Artemis appears to work under wine | 13:19 |
|---|---|---|
| kwadroke | at least the program runs. haven't got to do more testing yet | 13:20 |
| module000 | that's promising, do all the players need to buy a copy? | 13:20 |
| kwadroke | no | 13:20 |
| kwadroke | just need 1 | 13:21 |
| module000 | i want to buy a copy, i just need to find some people to play with - gonig to ask some coworkers that may have some trekkie in them | 13:21 |
| kwadroke | you can try the demo | 13:22 |
| kwadroke | it's good for 3 stations - main screen, helm & weapons | 13:23 |
| module000 | hrm, giong to download it now ;] | 13:23 |
| kwadroke | you'll need a video card that supports pixel shader 2.0 | 13:24 |
| kwadroke | but that's fairly easy to come by these days | 13:24 |
| module000 | yea, my home video card will | 13:25 |
| kwadroke | I need to find me 6 cheap laptops for this :) | 13:29 |
| kwadroke | I'm thinking about running this at conventions | 13:30 |
| module000 | it would bring people in for sure, a real "team sport" multiplayer game | 13:31 |
| module000 | need a bulk discount for these: http://www.tigerdirect.com/applications/SearchTools/item-details.asp?EdpNo=339045&sku=P101-156200 | 13:31 |
| module000 | probably some cheaper ones that would do it though available | 13:31 |
| kwadroke | yeah | 13:32 |
| kwadroke | going to ask a friend who can get off-lease machines | 13:32 |
| kwadroke | wonder if I can find a sponsor... | 13:33 |
| module000 | this would give me something besides minecraft to play also, that's my go-to time sink lately | 14:03 |
| kwadroke | yeah same here | 14:04 |
| kwadroke | in fact I need to upgrade our server today | 14:04 |
| kwadroke | for 1.8 | 14:05 |
| kwadroke | and done | 14:08 |
| module000 | we did ours for #lxgc yesterday, only found 1 "village" so far | 14:14 |
| module000 | but we didn't gen a new map, just used the old one...if you explore a ways out of your old map it will gen some new content though | 14:14 |
| kwadroke | yeah I didn't gen a new map either | 14:16 |
| kwadroke | might for 1.9 | 14:16 |
| kwadroke | as we want to do raids on the villages once npcs are there | 14:16 |
| module000 | who do you play with by the way? | 14:28 |
| kwadroke | people at the game store I work at | 14:32 |
| kwadroke | customers usualy | 14:32 |
| kwadroke | what's lxgc? | 14:49 |
| kwadroke | I know it's a channel on here, but besides that | 14:49 |
| kwadroke | ok,think I figured it out | 14:51 |
| kwadroke | looks like the website's not coming up | 14:52 |
| module000 | oh, i don't think we've had a site for awhile | 15:17 |
| module000 | we've dwindled to maybe a dozen members...i think we all just got lazy | 15:18 |
| module000 | it's a bunch of linux gamers though | 15:18 |
| kwadroke | channel very active? | 15:20 |
| module000 | once upon a time..now we've erally died down though | 15:24 |
| module000 | we used to have weekly games though, 20-30 players...was alot of fun :) | 15:25 |
| module000 | you reminded me we need a site again though, going to throw up default wordpress and let them see what they come up with | 15:25 |
| kwadroke | I wish linux-gamers live kept up to date | 15:32 |
| kwadroke | think that might help with linux gaming | 15:32 |
| module000 | me too | 15:33 |
| module000 | i dunno what happened with lxgc, once upon a time it was really vibrant and active, then everyone just got busy i guess | 15:33 |
| danielveazey | hey y'all | 15:52 |
| module000 | heya | 15:52 |
| danielveazey | got that weird error about the swap partition not mounting again this morning, but it doesn't seem to be affecting performance. | 15:53 |
| kwadroke | hey | 15:58 |

| snide_ | wait im snide underscore? | 19:35 |
| kwadroke | is someone already snide? | 19:35 |
| danielveazey | you might need to register with nickserv? | 19:35 |

| snide_ | heh heh | 19:36 |
| danielveazey | snide are you going to the meetup in conway tomorrow? | 19:52 |
| danielveazey | er, snide_ rather | 19:52 |
| snide_ | i plan on it | 19:53 |
| danielveazey | cool cool me too | 19:53 |
| snide_ | just so early in the morning... | 19:53 |
| snide_ | 2pm | 19:53 |
| snide_ | LOL | 19:53 |
| danielveazey | hehe | 19:57 |
| danielveazey | i don't have any expertise to offer, so i'll probably just listen | 19:58 |
| snide_ | yeah man i don't know anything myself | 19:59 |
| treacherous | What goes on at the meetings? | 19:59 |
| treacherous | I've never been to one | 19:59 |
| kwadroke | it's not a regularly scheduled meeting | 20:00 |
| treacherous | how often? | 20:00 |
| kwadroke | only 1 | 20:00 |
| kwadroke | it was sent in an email to the carlug.org mailing list | 20:00 |
| treacherous | hmm so you've all no idea what to expect? | 20:00 |
| snide_ | well, at the very least, you will get to meet kwadroke | 20:01 |
| snide_ | and believe me, its worth it | 20:01 |
| snide_ | although evil_kwadroke is even better | 20:01 |
| treacherous | Well, it's two hours away, I might have gone to the next one | 20:01 |
| treacherous | but I don't think I can get the car tomorrow | 20:01 |
| snide_ | whereabouts do you live? | 20:02 |
| treacherous | sw arkansas | 20:02 |
| kwadroke | it's a "hey we're out here" meeting, I believe | 20:02 |
| snide_ | eeks yeah | 20:02 |
| snide_ | can't help you | 20:02 |
| treacherous | oh no, it's cool, it's not that bad of a drive really, just late notice I just found out this morning from I think kwad | 20:02 |
| treacherous | there is a cute guy there I wanted to meet anyway, tehehe, too bad really | 20:03 |
| treacherous | kill two birds with one stone kind of thing. | 20:03 |
| treacherous | I need to sign up for that mailing list though | 20:03 |
| danielveazey | i'm not going to shave | 20:03 |
| treacherous | hawt, mountain men are sexy | 20:03 |
| snide_ | hey does anyone in here know much about cosmology? | 20:04 |
| treacherous | haha everyone shaves in arizona :P | 20:04 |
| treacherous | I wonder if you men keep the beard for the cold weather | 20:04 |
| danielveazey | The science of the origin and development of the universe. Modern astronomy is dominated by the big bang theory, which brings together observational astronomy and particle physics. | 20:04 |
| snide_ | ah yes | 20:04 |
| snide_ | well somewhat more specifically: | 20:05 |
| danielveazey | I only grow half a beard. It looks pathetic | 20:05 |
| snide_ | so the big news is, of course, that they found two stars with an exoplanet | 20:05 |
| snide_ | but i had read that it was strongly believed that such a configuration was impossible | 20:05 |
| treacherous | cold as hell here, people are walking around in their t-shirts and shorts, it's 65 degrees outside | 20:05 |
| treacherous | ridiculous | 20:05 |
| kwadroke | Mailing list: http://carlug.org/mailman/listinfo/carlug-discuss | 20:05 |
| treacherous | I'm in a damn parka. | 20:06 |
| snide_ | in that due to the orbits, the planet would either be slung out of orbit, or slung into one of the stars | 20:06 |
| treacherous | snide_ I'm also uh.. *kinda* new to linux :) I haven't used it in quite a while, been pouring through books, etc to get up to speed | 20:06 |
| danielveazey | i heard on npr a few weeks ago about planets that are believed to not be orbiting any stars | 20:07 |
| snide_ | ah, i have not been keeping up with npr like i used to | 20:07 |
| kwadroke | they're not orbiting other stars, hence exoplanets (if I remember correctly) | 20:08 |
| treacherous | thanks kwad | 20:08 |
| snide_ | opposite | 20:09 |
| snide_ | exoplanet means not orbiting our star | 20:09 |
| snide_ | a very earth-centric term, of course, which would i suppose irritate anyone living on those other planets, which i am betting against | 20:10 |
| treacherous | lag is going to be the death of me. | 20:11 |
| danielveazey | hehe | 20:11 |
| treacherous | where is this meeting being held in conway? | 20:15 |
| danielveazey | st peter's episcopal church, right next to conway high school | 20:15 |
| treacherous | at 2pm? | 20:16 |
| danielveazey | jes | 20:16 |
| treacherous | alright | 20:16 |
| treacherous | maybe I'll find a way to make it :P | 20:16 |
| danielveazey | awesome blossom | 20:16 |
| treacherous | oh shit | 20:17 |
| treacherous | I can make it | 20:17 |
| treacherous | I forgot it's saturday tomorrow | 20:17 |
| treacherous | I have the car | 20:17 |
| danielveazey | lol | 20:17 |
| kwadroke | snide_: ah | 20:17 |
| kwadroke | ok | 20:17 |
| snide_ | hey kwadroke, will you be there tomorrow? | 20:19 |
| kwadroke | depends if I have to work at CGC or not | 20:19 |
| snide_ | did you guys ever move? | 20:20 |
| kwadroke | no... and I just found out a bit ago that we'll have to find somewhere else. | 20:22 |
| snide_ | what?? | 20:22 |
| kwadroke | they decided that they were going to sell the place | 20:22 |
| kwadroke | that we were going to move into | 20:22 |
| snide_ | well snap | 20:22 |
| kwadroke | we were just going up to sign the contracts today | 20:22 |
| snide_ | hey you are welcome to use that other trailer on my property....... | 20:22 |
| treacherous | heh | 20:23 |
| treacherous | how cold is it up there around conway? | 20:23 |
| snide_ | not cold, but the oddest thing just happened a few minutes ago | 20:23 |
| snide_ | i had to run outside to see it | 20:24 |
| snide_ | there was this...hard to describe, but | 20:24 |
| treacherous | do tell | 20:24 |
| snide_ | almost like some sort of... water like substance, falling from the sky | 20:24 |
| treacherous | rain | 20:24 |
| treacherous | lol | 20:24 |
| snide_ | R A I N | 20:25 |
| snide_ | yes! | 20:25 |
| snide_ | i remember now | 20:25 |
| treacherous | so it's cold and rainy there? blah | 20:25 |
| treacherous | I've never been to little rock | 20:25 |
| snide_ | ah | 20:25 |
| treacherous | I just moved here.. so I don't know the weather smarty pants :P | 20:25 |
| snide_ | oh | 20:25 |
| kwadroke | there's a saying about arkansas weather | 20:26 |
| kwadroke | if you don't like it, stick around it will change | 20:26 |
| snide_ | and actually i am not in conway, and in fact i think kawd isn't at the moment either | 20:28 |
| snide_ | but the weather is much the same in the area right now | 20:29 |
| treacherous | so basically I should dress like an eskimo if I go, great :) | 20:30 |
| snide_ | uh, well unless you are my size, which leaves me in shorts & tshirt right now | 20:30 |
| treacherous | uh no, I'm 5'1 and require a lot of coats. | 20:31 |
| snide_ | so what, primer, maybe two coats, topcoat at least two? yeah, i've been there | 20:31 |
| treacherous | ha | 20:31 |
| treacherous | if only we were talking about a car :P | 20:32 |
| treacherous | which btw I fixed mine yesterday, had to change a bunch of hoses, which makes me a bit reluctant to chance the drive | 20:32 |
| treacherous | we'll see, I would love to go honestly, so we'll see | 20:33 |
| snide_ | well i hope to see everybody there, but i have to bolt | 20:34 |
| treacherous | bye | 20:34 |
| treacherous | it would be cool if the lug group could create something useful for linux.. to add to it.. | 20:50 |
| kwadroke | like what? | 20:54 |
| treacherous | I've no idea, it was just a random thought | 20:54 |
| treacherous | I guess it depends a lot on how many people show up tomorrow if any interest could be gotten from the idea | 20:54 |
| kwadroke | well, that meeting is not a Linux meeting | 20:57 |
| kwadroke | they're just inviting us | 20:57 |
| treacherous | nod, what exactly kind of meeting is it? | 20:57 |
| treacherous | don't answer that, anyway I'm sure it's something that might be brought up in the future | 20:58 |
| kwadroke | http://kwadrix.com/pastebin/4e73b878cf954.txt | 20:58 |
| treacherous | hmm sounds kinda like a survivors meeting | 21:04 |
| treacherous | only because of the food security bit :P | 21:04 |
| danielveazey | kwad, is cube 2 resource-heavy? | 21:23 |
| danielveazey | sauerbraten? | 21:23 |
| kwadroke | not really | 21:23 |
| kwadroke | what are you running it on? | 21:23 |
| kwadroke | or want to run it on? | 21:23 |
| danielveazey | dell inspiron 1525 / linux mint | 21:24 |
| kwadroke | video card? | 21:24 |
| danielveazey | none, it's a laptop | 21:24 |
| kwadroke | well, it still has one | 21:24 |
| danielveazey | onboard | 21:24 |
| danielveazey | integrated | 21:25 |
| kwadroke | lspci | grep VGA | 21:25 |
| kwadroke | run that | 21:25 |
| kwadroke | that will tell us what kind of chipset it has | 21:25 |
| kwadroke | what mine says: 00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation Mobile 915GM/GMS/910GML Express Graphics Controller (rev 03) | 21:25 |
| danielveazey | 00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation Mobile GM965/GL960 Integrated Graphics Controller (primary) (rev 0c) | 21:25 |
| danielveazey | i'm downloading sauerbraten now | 21:26 |
| kwadroke | not sure what kind of card that is | 21:27 |
| kwadroke | 3d support could be lacking | 21:27 |
| danielveazey | i'll give it a try ... | 21:29 |
| danielveazey | the screenshots look cool | 21:32 |
| kwadroke | yeah | 21:32 |
| kwadroke | I've played it many times | 21:36 |
| kwadroke | had my own server up for a while too | 21:36 |
| danielveazey | yeah i saw it on your website | 21:38 |
| kwadroke | which one? | 21:39 |
| kwadroke | I have many | 21:39 |
| danielveazey | kwadrix.com | 21:40 |
| kwadroke | ok | 21:40 |
| danielveazey | http://kwadrix.com/2011/06/30/sauerbraten-server/ | 21:40 |
| kwadroke | theoretically it should be still running | 21:41 |
| kwadroke | but my ip address updater on the router is not working | 21:41 |
| danielveazey | that's an interesting game | 21:55 |
| danielveazey | i think it would be better if i were using a mouse though | 21:55 |
| danielveazey | instead of the laptop's touchpad | 21:55 |
| kwadroke | yeah, touch pads suck for fps's | 22:04 |
| danielveazey | i have a mouse over there on the table but i'm too lazy to get up and get it | 22:06 |
| kwadroke | lol | 22:16 |
| treacherous | hmm any of you ever been to arkadelphia? | 22:18 |
| kwadroke | yeah | 22:20 |
| treacherous | oh great | 22:22 |
| treacherous | is there anything fun there? | 22:22 |
| treacherous | and is a dry county? | 22:23 |
| treacherous | wait you may not know the dry county bit I can google that | 22:23 |
| kwadroke | can't remember | 22:25 |
| treacherous | hmm | 22:26 |
| kwadroke | not much in arkadelphia | 22:26 |
| treacherous | is a date | 22:26 |
| treacherous | neither of us have been to arkadelphia | 22:26 |
| treacherous | but it's a long drive so we were going to meet in the middle hmm | 22:27 |
| treacherous | he's like a really good friend of mine since I've gotten here, he's nice so I wanted to meet him | 22:27 |
| treacherous | actually the only good friend I've made since moving here, meh | 22:28 |
| treacherous | I'll probably screw that up by meeting him, ha | 22:28 |
| treacherous | I have no social etiquette, horrible in person | 22:30 |
| treacherous | I mean if I make it through an hour without embarrassing myself I consider it a success. | 22:32 |
| kwadroke | lol | 22:32 |
| kwadroke | well, I'm headed home | 22:35 |
| kwadroke | cya later | 22:35 |
| danielveazey | adios | 22:35 |
| danielveazey | treach just remember that he's probably as nervous as you are | 22:36 |
| treacherous | yay homework is done | 22:54 |
