| nUboon2age | jtatum, jledbetter whats the thought for this month? I came last month but nobody else was there | 02:06 |
|---|---|---|
| nhaines | I have nothing on topic to contribute to the channel at the moment, so instead I come bearing a gift: http://i.imgur.com/s7tOH.jpg | 04:30 |

| pleia2 | haha | 04:32 |
| nhaines | Actually I was fighting with Windows 8 in a VM earlier. But VirtualBox 4.2 Beta 1 is a little broken too. So I was fighting both of them. | 04:33 |
| pleia2 | oh fun | 04:33 |
| pleia2 | who won? :) | 04:34 |
| nhaines | I did, because I shut everything down and am playing Super Mario 3D Land instead. :) | 04:34 |
| pleia2 | nhaines++ | 04:34 |
| pleia2 | rww was at the ubuntu hour & debian dinner last night, he had his 3ds | 04:35 |
| * pleia2 learned this upon returning home :) | 04:35 | |
| scientes | 3ds? | 04:36 |
| nhaines | Apparently there were some stages I had completed but without gold flags, so I am remedying this. Also I can see the director of a Nintendo news site is playing New Super Mario Bros. 2 so I await a review. | 04:36 |
| nhaines | Haha, yes, he mentioned that to me and now I have his friend code. :) | 04:36 |
| scientes | nhaines, why don't you use virt-manager + qemu-kvm? | 04:36 |
| scientes | its way better than vb | 04:36 |
| pleia2 | scientes: nintendo handheld | 04:36 |
| nhaines | scientes: the Nintendo 3DS is an autostereoscopic handheld gaming device. | 04:36 |
| scientes | nhaines, except its more of a client with a rootkit | 04:36 |
| scientes | it searches out wifis to connect to when booting, and auto-downloads updates | 04:37 |
| scientes | and if it detects tampering it bricks itsself | 04:37 |
| scientes | get an openpandora | 04:37 |
| scientes | http://openpandora.org/ | 04:37 |
| darthrobot | Title: [OpenPandora] | 04:37 |
| nhaines | Are we no longer talking about hypervisors? | 04:38 |
| scientes | we talk about everythin gin here | 04:38 |
| nhaines | Antecedents. | 04:38 |
| scientes | i was talking about the root-kit part of 3ds | 04:38 |
| nhaines | Signed auto-update from the manufacturer is not a rootkit. | 04:38 |
| scientes | its a manufacture-controller rootkit | 04:39 |
| scientes | cause you can't turn it off | 04:39 |
| nhaines | That's not what rootkit means and you can turn it off. | 04:39 |
| scientes | or rather, non-free controlling software | 04:39 |
| scientes | i've heard its impossible to turn off | 04:39 |
| nhaines | There's a switch on the side of the unit that disables wireless. | 04:39 |
| scientes | well you have to admit that even if that works its far from optimal | 04:40 |
| nhaines | I don't admit it. Updates are downloaded automatically but not installed automatically anyway. | 04:41 |
| nhaines | Besides, I'm not interested in homebrew or piracy. I bought the system to play Nintendo games. If I wanted to do homebrew I'd just use an emulator. | 04:41 |
| scientes | http://hexus.net/gaming/news/3ds/26716-forced-nintendo-3ds-firmware-updates-combat-piracy/ | 04:41 |
| darthrobot | Title: [Forced Nintendo 3DS firmware updates to combat piracy - 3DS - News - HEXUS.net] | 04:41 |
| nhaines | Meanwhile in 2012, updates are automatically downloaded but you are prompted to install, and then must read and accept an EULA before the install begins. | 04:42 |
| nhaines | I'm not the least bit interested in gaming on an OpenPandora device, but I would totally take this out drinking so I can code and drink. | 04:44 |
| scientes | what are the good games? | 04:51 |
| nhaines | scientes: There are a few, but Super Mario 3D Land, Mario Kart 7, Theatrhythm: Final Fantasy, Kid Icarus, The Legend of Zelda: Link's Awakening DX, Super Mario Bros., and The Legend of Zelda are my current favorites. | 04:56 |
| pleia2 | I like 3D land a lot more than the regular SMB one | 04:58 |
| nhaines | pleia2: but it's a classic! | 05:02 |
| pleia2 | yeah well :) | 05:03 |
| pleia2 | perhaps I was just wanting something new | 05:03 |
| nhaines | pleia2: I would actually *love* to see Super Mario Bros. 2 on 3DS Virtual Console. | 05:08 |
| pleia2 | I loved SMB2 | 05:09 |
| pleia2 | I got to play the princess :) she floats | 05:09 |
| pleia2 | I have it for my Wii actually | 05:10 |
| nhaines | So do I, but I'd prefer it if I could play it on the go and also where no one can see me die repeatedly. :) | 05:10 |
| pleia2 | haha | 05:10 |
| pleia2 | yeah, I have a massive TV, people across the street at the art school can watch me die | 05:11 |
| * pleia2 draws shade | 05:11 | |
| nhaines | haha :) | 05:11 |
| bkerensa | oh duh | 05:37 |
| * bkerensa couldnt figure out why Pushover was not sending IRC notifications | 05:37 | |
| bkerensa | =/ | 05:37 |
| bkerensa | I flashed a new rom | 05:37 |
| nhaines | pleia2: Oh good, this just happened to me [NSFW - profanity]: http://penny-arcade.com/comic/2011/11/16 | 06:17 |
| darthrobot | [503] Title: [503 Service Unavailable] | 06:17 |

| nhaines | Which should definitely be a Unicode codepoint. | 06:20 |

| Darkwing | bkerensa: ping | 12:03 |
| bkerensa | Darkwing: pong | 15:34 |
| pleia2 | Darkwing: you need to start giving some context to these pings :) | 17:16 |
