snap-l | jrwren: I got the amiga running, but the mouse needs some work | 00:15 |
---|---|---|
jrwren | :( | 01:25 |
snap-l | No worries | 01:34 |
snap-l | Heh, didn't realize there's a Michigan reference in Yes' "America" | 02:26 |
snap-l | "Kathy," I said, as we boarded the greyhound in Pittsburgh | 02:26 |
snap-l | "Michigan seems like a dream to me now | 02:26 |
snap-l | Took me four days to from Saginaw | 02:26 |
snap-l | They've all gone to look for America | 02:26 |
snap-l | All gone to look for America." | 02:26 |
snap-l | s/four days to from/ four days to hitchhike from | 02:27 |
snap-l | Apparently it's a Paul Simon song as well. | 02:27 |
snap-l | http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/America_(Paul_Simon_song) | 02:28 |
rick_h_ | morning | 12:54 |
brousch | is it? | 12:55 |
rick_h_ | rumor has it | 12:55 |
Wolfger | oooh-hoo, rumor has it... | 13:06 |
Wolfger | </music> | 13:06 |
snap-l | Good morning | 13:17 |
Wolfger | That snap-l always has to go a step too far and prepend "good" to it.... | 13:32 |
snap-l | Wolfger: Yep, I'm a rebel | 13:32 |
rick_h_ | I thought we had to leave "good" off on Monday's on principle alone | 13:33 |
rick_h_ | ooh, except we have to congrats greg-g! | 13:33 |
rick_h_ | greg-g: pro tip...let them take the little guy to the nursery at night. We didn't take them up on it and ugh | 13:34 |
Wolfger | Oh, the baby was born? Congrats, greg-g | 13:35 |
Wolfger | and snap-l's Amiga was reborn? | 13:35 |
snap-l | Wolfger: Uh, no | 13:36 |
Wolfger | ...and snap-l didn't realize "America" was a Simon and Garfunkel tune? For shame. | 13:36 |
snap-l | Wolfger: I didn't relize that the Yes version was a cover. | 13:37 |
snap-l | http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EReWi009IL4 | 13:37 |
Wolfger | snap-l: No on the amiga? I just saw that you told jrwren you got it working. | 13:38 |
Wolfger | ok, enough scrollback. Need to live in the present. | 13:38 |
snap-l | Wolfger: It was in working condition | 13:38 |
snap-l | I "plugged it in" | 13:38 |
Wolfger | "I got the amiga running" implies a bit more that the ability to use a plug socket :-p | 13:39 |
snap-l | Wolfger: Perhaps | 13:40 |
snap-l | http://jalopnik.com/5866981/10-wheel-custom-buick-must-be-seen-to-be-believed/gallery/1 | 13:44 |
snap-l | I shall buy this car and dub it "Gentoo" | 13:45 |
Wolfger | ++ | 13:45 |
Wolfger | but, uh... if that's a buick, why does it have a Dodge grill? | 13:46 |
Wolfger | and a back end reminiscent of an El Camino? | 13:46 |
Wolfger | They're really stretching the definition of "Buick" here... | 13:47 |
snap-l | Wolfger: That's not all they're stretching the definition of | 13:47 |
snap-l | That many axles I believe is licensed as a commercial truck in Michigan. | 13:47 |
Wolfger | OK, now that I RTFA I see they've already addressed my concerns. :-p | 13:48 |
dzho | don't you hate it when that happens? | 13:48 |
dzho | nothing ruins a good grump like people addressing concerns | 13:49 |
Wolfger | Yeah, I would hate to pay the bridge/tunnel toll on that many axels | 13:49 |
snap-l | Wolfger: I asked the same question | 13:49 |
Wolfger | or the toll roads in ohio for that matter | 13:49 |
snap-l | Also, I don't think you could drive it in anything other than a straight line | 13:49 |
snap-l | not witout tearing the back tires to shreds. | 13:50 |
Wolfger | I wonder how many axles are powered | 13:51 |
rick_h_ | front wheel drive | 13:51 |
rick_h_ | sounds like ... 1 | 13:51 |
Wolfger | I love German... The word for "internet user" is Internetnutzer | 13:58 |
Wolfger | which is entirely too appropriate | 13:58 |
snap-l | German: The Reeses Peanut Butter cup language | 14:00 |
snap-l | or the Red Green Duck Tape language, take your pick | 14:00 |
Wolfger | shut up, nutzer. :-) | 14:00 |
snap-l | lnutzer. :-P | 14:01 |
Wolfger | lol | 14:01 |
Wolfger | that doesn't quite translate | 14:01 |
rick_h_ | http://functionsource.com/post/mugeda-drawing-shapes-in-the-cloud in reference to what it'll take to eventually replace flash | 14:13 |
rick_h_ | sorry, in reference to the point I've made a number of times during death of flash discussions | 14:14 |
Wolfger | functionsource-- for having a website that refuses to display anything until you allow scripts to run | 14:24 |
Wolfger | <headdesk> http://programmers.stackexchange.com/questions/124533/will-it-hurt-my-reputation-if-i-dont-deliver-what-im-expected-to | 14:34 |
Wolfger | A: "What do *you* think?" | 14:34 |
snap-l | programmers.se, where every question can be honestly answered by "What do you think?" | 14:46 |
Wolfger | Heh. Not every question, but a lot of them. | 14:49 |
snap-l | Yeah, there's a few that are honest-to-god cud-chewers. | 14:49 |
Wolfger | But whenever I find a question that I feel is a good question on there, I have the impulse to migrate it to Stack Overflow.... | 14:49 |
snap-l | But most of them are essentially procrastination. | 14:50 |
Wolfger | reason: "this is a good question, so doesn't belong here" | 14:50 |
snap-l | rick_h_: That Mugeda is pretty interesting | 14:55 |
snap-l | rick_h_: Did you bring up the tool? | 14:55 |
rick_h_ | yea, not quite replacement for adobe flash editor, but that's what's going to be needed to kill off flash | 14:56 |
rick_h_ | tools | 14:56 |
snap-l | Oh, absolutely. | 14:56 |
snap-l | We have the wood, and the idea of what we want to build, now it's time to get the right tools. | 14:57 |
Wolfger | oh geez, here we go with the woodworking metaphor.... ;-) | 15:15 |
snap-l | http://ebb.org/bkuhn/blog/2011/11/24/google-plus.html <- Just one question, and one question only... | 15:16 |
snap-l | ... so, do you use a telephone? :) | 15:16 |
snap-l | I mean, you don't "own" the infrastructure | 15:16 |
snap-l | and they use proprietary codecs | 15:16 |
Wolfger | my freetardation senses are tingling... | 15:18 |
snap-l | I think I'm going to write a parody post. | 15:20 |
krondor | Hell, do you use the internet? How many of those routers are using proprietary protocols between nodes/satellites (I'm looking at you cisco). | 15:20 |
Wolfger | Although now I wonder if RMS uses a telephone... It wouldn't surprise me too much if he didn't... | 15:30 |
ColonelPanic001 | heh, you know, I wouldn't be surprised too much either | 15:32 |
brousch | some interesting pendants for your geek women http://www.etsy.com/shop/surly | 16:39 |

brousch | oh, did you see http://www.rimmell.com/bbc/news.htm | 16:48 |
snap-l | No, I hadn't. | 16:48 |
snap-l | That's awesome. :) | 16:48 |
snap-l | And they're pulling lost Doctor Who episodes from space. | 16:49 |
brousch | i like that they have no clue what is bouncing it back | 16:49 |
brousch | it's the doctor with a big frickin mirror saving the episodes | 16:52 |
brousch | i got lucy in the sky with diamonds for my wife and FSM for a friend | 16:54 |
snap-l | OK, it's a 2009 April Fools joke. | 16:59 |

brousch | the article? | 17:00 |
snap-l | Yes, look at the date | 17:00 |
brousch | damnit | 17:00 |
Wolfger | LOL | 17:06 |
Wolfger | that's got to be one of the better jokes, still getting people 2.5 years later | 17:06 |
snap-l | SO, what's the good word? | 18:27 |
rick_h_ | die bugs die | 18:27 |

snap-l | I think I'm going to call myself Rick James, bitch. :) | 18:28 |
Wolfger | start date? | 18:29 |
snap-l | Early January. | 18:31 |
snap-l | first week | 18:31 |
snap-l | Wolfger: Oh, sorry. I'm heading to Morpace in January | 18:31 |
Wolfger | Let me clarify my question: What are you starting? ;-) | 18:32 |
Wolfger | Ah, ok | 18:32 |
Wolfger | I can't keep up with all your job jumping | 18:32 |
snap-l | Right, because I jump sooo many times. :) | 18:32 |
brousch | Wolfger: i know, these guys move every year or two. crazy | 18:33 |
Wolfger | I wonder what makes them so unemployable.... | 18:34 |
snap-l | Well, in the case of SF.net, it was bad quarters | 18:34 |
jjesse | whose jumping jobs? | 18:34 |
Wolfger | the games at the arcade wouldn't accept your pay? | 18:34 |
Wolfger | jjesse: the jumping jobs belong to snap-l | 18:35 |
Wolfger | or did you mean "who's"? ;-) | 18:35 |
jjesse | ah :) so congrats on something new snap-l ? | 18:35 |
snap-l | Something old, something new | 18:36 |
snap-l | rick_h_'s old employer hired me new. | 18:36 |
jjesse | ah | 18:36 |
Wolfger | did you demand to not have to deal with NC Guy? | 18:36 |
snap-l | No, I want to deal with NC dude. | 18:37 |
brousch | Wolfger: don't remember those old PSAs? "You can learn a lot from a dummy" | 18:38 |
Wolfger | Heh. | 18:39 |
snap-l | Almost done with all of my disc rips | 19:04 |
snap-l | Have a hanfdul left. | 19:05 |
rick_h_ | lol "You could learn a lot from a NC Dude...like proper calming breathing patterns, and the best medications for high blood pressure, and marvelous levels of self control" | 19:28 |
snap-l | hah | 19:38 |
brousch | snap-l enjoys pain and frustration, which is why he goes to meijer's every sunday afternoon | 19:43 |

rick_h_ | lol, it's like a second round of happiness | 19:56 |
snap-l | rick_h_: Congratulations on your new job. :) | 19:57 |
_stink_ | haha | 19:58 |
* snap-l keeps it going. ;) | 19:58 | |
* snap-l is a little bummed, though | 20:00 | |
snap-l | going into an office means I'll have to submit to a dress code | 20:00 |
snap-l | means I'll have to start wearing pants again | 20:00 |
_stink_ | don't let the man tell you not to wear t-shirts with holes. | 20:01 |
snap-l | JoDee seriously got a note in the mail (paper mail) asking her to click on a link | 20:03 |
_stink_ | that's some impressive paper | 20:08 |
* snap-l wonders if they keyboard intro for Baba O'Riley would make a great ringtone | 20:22 | |
brousch | what is baba o'riley? | 20:27 |
snap-l | Who Song | 20:30 |
snap-l | You might know it as "Teenage Wasteland" | 20:31 |
ColonelPanic001 | DUN | 20:35 |
ColonelPanic001 | DUN DUN | 20:35 |
ColonelPanic001 | DUN | 20:35 |

dzho | http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YN-MUx6dg6w&feature=related <- snap-l et al | 20:37 |
ColonelPanic001 | God, I hate when I do "grep -nr "somestuff"", forgetting the "*" at the end, then sit there and wait, wondering why it's going so slowly. | 20:38 |
rick_h_ | heh | 20:39 |
snap-l | I've done that way too many times | 20:48 |
snap-l | also, Tracfone can die in a fire. | 20:48 |
snap-l | That is all | 20:49 |
ColonelPanic001 | noted | 21:02 |
snap-l | Ho boy, got something from the Michigan Economic Development Corp. | 21:42 |
snap-l | Learn how to write software code. IT degree not required | 21:42 |
snap-l | Don’t skip over those software coding job listings when reading the want ads. | 21:42 |
snap-l | Not saying people can't do it, but seems these sorts of cattle calls just end up with people who think development is just pressing keys on a keyboard. | 21:43 |
ColonelPanic001 | I do push a lot of buttons on the keyboard | 21:44 |
snap-l | ColonelPanic001: Right, but do you think that's the extent of development? | 21:45 |
snap-l | n | 21:45 |
ColonelPanic001 | I just use my forehead, man. I see what sticks, and commit. | 21:46 |
ColonelPanic001 | it's not a very quick method, but I assure you, it's kind of fun. | 21:46 |
snap-l | If it doesn't stick, you must commit? :) | 21:46 |
brousch | if it compiles, ship it! | 21:47 |
ColonelPanic001 | git commit -m "aljhOIJUAS09UR93UJOIJKLJ ALLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEQQQQQQQQ" | 21:47 |
snap-l | git commit -m "Fuck it" | 21:47 |
snap-l | git push | 21:47 |
snap-l | git blame | 21:47 |
ColonelPanic001 | haha | 21:47 |
ColonelPanic001 | I want to use "fuck it" as a default if none is provided | 21:47 |
