[13:19] <kwadroke> module000: Artemis appears to work under wine
[13:20] <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
[13:21] <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
[13:22] <kwadroke> you can try the demo
[13:23] <kwadroke> it's good for 3 stations - main screen, helm & weapons
[13:23] <module000> hrm, giong to download it now ;]
[13:24] <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
[13:25] <module000> yea, my home video card will
[13:29] <kwadroke> I need to find me 6 cheap laptops for this :)
[13:30] <kwadroke> I'm thinking about running this at conventions
[13:31] <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
[13:32] <kwadroke> yeah
[13:32] <kwadroke> going to ask a friend who can get off-lease machines
[13:33] <kwadroke> wonder if I can find a sponsor...
[14:03] <module000> this would give me something besides minecraft to play also, that's my go-to time sink lately
[14:04] <kwadroke> yeah same here
[14:04] <kwadroke> in fact I need to upgrade our server today
[14:05] <kwadroke> for 1.8
[14:08] <kwadroke> and done
[14:14] <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
[14:16] <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
[14:28] <module000> who do you play with by the way?
[14:32] <kwadroke> people at the game store I work at
[14:32] <kwadroke> customers usualy
[14:49] <kwadroke> what's lxgc?
[14:49] <kwadroke> I know it's a channel on here, but besides that
[14:51] <kwadroke> ok,think I figured it out
[14:52] <kwadroke> looks like the website's not coming up
[15:17] <module000> oh, i don't think we've had a site for awhile
[15:18] <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
[15:20] <kwadroke> channel very active?
[15:24] <module000> once upon a time..now we've erally died down though
[15:25] <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
[15:32] <kwadroke> I wish linux-gamers live kept up to date
[15:32] <kwadroke> think that might help with linux gaming
[15:33] <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
[15:52] <danielveazey> hey y'all
[15:52] <module000> heya
[15:53] <danielveazey> got that weird error about the swap partition not mounting again this morning, but it doesn't seem to be affecting performance.
[15:58] <kwadroke> hey
[16:01] <treacherous> hi everyone!
[16:01] <danielveazey> hey kwad
[16:01] <danielveazey> hey treach

[16:01] <kwadroke> if I don't have to work

[16:02] <treacherous> well no
[16:02] <danielveazey> my bad

[19:34] <kwadroke> welcome to #ubuntu-us-ar snide_
[19:34] <kwadroke> :)
[19:34] <snide_> thank you kwad
[19:34] <snide_> you look familiar
[19:35] <kwadroke> I wonder why :)
[19:35] <snide_> wait im snide underscore?
[19:35] <kwadroke> is someone already snide?
[19:35] <danielveazey> you might need to register with nickserv?
[19:36] <snide_> gasp! registration! my poor anonimity......
[19:36] <snide_> heh heh
[19:52] <danielveazey> snide are you going to the meetup in conway tomorrow?
[19:52] <danielveazey> er, snide_ rather
[19:53] <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
[19:57] <danielveazey> hehe
[19:58] <danielveazey> i don't have any expertise to offer, so i'll probably just listen
[19:59] <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
[20:00] <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?
[20:01] <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
[20:02] <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
[20:03] <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
[20:04] <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
[20:05] <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
[20:06] <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
[20:07] <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
[20:08] <kwadroke> they're not orbiting other stars, hence exoplanets (if I remember correctly)
[20:08] <treacherous> thanks kwad
[20:09] <snide_> opposite
[20:09] <snide_> exoplanet means not orbiting our star
[20:10] <snide_> a very earth-centric term, of course, which would i suppose irritate anyone living on those other planets, which i am betting against
[20:11] <treacherous> lag is going to be the death of me.
[20:11] <danielveazey> hehe
[20:15] <treacherous> where is this meeting being held in conway?
[20:15] <danielveazey> st peter's episcopal church, right next to conway high school
[20:16] <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
[20:17] <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
[20:19] <snide_> hey kwadroke, will you be there tomorrow?
[20:19] <kwadroke> depends if I have to work at CGC or not
[20:20] <snide_> did you guys ever move?
[20:22] <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.......
[20:23] <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
[20:24] <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
[20:25] <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
[20:26] <kwadroke> there's a saying about arkansas weather
[20:26] <kwadroke> if you don't like it, stick around it will change
[20:28] <snide_> and actually i am not in conway, and in fact i think kawd isn't at the moment either
[20:29] <snide_> but the weather is much the same in the area right now
[20:30] <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
[20:31] <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
[20:32] <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
[20:33] <treacherous> we'll see, I would love to go honestly, so we'll see
[20:34] <snide_> well i hope to see everybody there, but i have to bolt
[20:34] <treacherous> bye
[20:50] <treacherous> it would be cool if the lug group could create something useful for linux.. to add to it..
[20:54] <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
[20:57] <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?
[20:58] <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
[21:04] <treacherous> hmm sounds kinda like a survivors meeting
[21:04] <treacherous> only because of the food security bit :P
[21:23] <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?
[21:24] <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
[21:25] <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)
[21:26] <danielveazey> i'm downloading sauerbraten now
[21:27] <kwadroke> not sure what kind of card that is
[21:27] <kwadroke> 3d support could be lacking
[21:29] <danielveazey> i'll give it a try ...
[21:32] <danielveazey> the screenshots look cool
[21:32] <kwadroke> yeah
[21:36] <kwadroke> I've played it many times
[21:36] <kwadroke> had my own server up for a while too
[21:38] <danielveazey> yeah i saw it on your website
[21:39] <kwadroke> which one?
[21:39] <kwadroke> I have many
[21:40] <danielveazey> kwadrix.com
[21:40] <kwadroke> ok
[21:40] <danielveazey> http://kwadrix.com/2011/06/30/sauerbraten-server/
[21:41] <kwadroke> theoretically it should be still running
[21:41] <kwadroke> but my ip address updater on the router is not working
[21:55] <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
[22:04] <kwadroke> yeah, touch pads suck for fps's
[22:06] <danielveazey> i have a mouse over there on the table but i'm too lazy to get up and get it
[22:16] <kwadroke> lol
[22:18] <treacherous> hmm any of you ever been to arkadelphia?
[22:20] <kwadroke> yeah
[22:22] <treacherous> oh great
[22:22] <treacherous> is there anything fun there?
[22:23] <treacherous> and is a dry county?
[22:23] <treacherous> wait you may not know the dry county bit I can google that
[22:25] <kwadroke> can't remember
[22:26] <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
[22:27] <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
[22:28] <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
[22:30] <treacherous> I have no social etiquette, horrible in person
[22:32] <treacherous> I mean if I make it through an hour without embarrassing myself I consider it a success.
[22:32] <kwadroke> lol
[22:35] <kwadroke> well, I'm headed home
[22:35] <kwadroke> cya later
[22:35] <danielveazey> adios
[22:36] <danielveazey> treach just remember that he's probably as nervous as you are
[22:54] <treacherous> yay homework is done
