| daftykins | :D | 00:19 |
| daftykins | i shall steal that and spread it elsewhere | 00:19 |
| zmoylan-pi | no matter how good they make it it after this amount of time can hope to capture the emotional impact of the first | 00:21 |
| diddledan | the first was wow | 00:21 |
| diddledan | I hope they get the original music authors | 00:22 |
| zmoylan-pi | and they'll probably cgi the buggery out of a sequel | 00:22 |
| zmoylan-pi | vangelis is still alive | 00:22 |
| daftykins | after i got introduced i've been listening to the Vangelis soundtrack for months | 00:22 |
| daftykins | omw that's good | 00:22 |
| diddledan | the music was an integral part of the feeling that it evokes | 00:22 |
| daftykins | indeed | 00:23 |
| daftykins | a friend said to me the other day that it's hinted that Deckard is a replicant too... i can't say i'd ever considered it | 00:24 |
| diddledan | yeah it's more hinted in the directors' cut | 00:24 |
| diddledan | with the unicorn dream | 00:24 |
| diddledan | and then the unicorn origami outside his door | 00:24 |
| daftykins | ah i must not have that cut | 00:25 |
| zmoylan-pi | why would you risk a human life hunting down replicants? | 00:25 |
| daftykins | why would that be a hint - seems almost a premonition | 00:25 |
| zmoylan-pi | i never considered otherwise | 00:25 |
| daftykins | that's true. i guess he did survive the encounter with Leon pretty easily too | 00:26 |
| shauno | yaknow, that's one I'm not sure I've actually seen | 00:33 |
| diddledan | :-o | 00:34 |
| diddledan | shauno, your geek is lacking | 00:34 |
| shauno | hm, looking it up .. Im' pretty sure that's one I started and fell asleep | 00:38 |
| diddledan | http://devuan.org/ | 00:39 |
| shauno | shame they got rid of the old page. the old page was funnier. | 00:42 |
| shauno | http://web.archive.org/web/20141019125519/http://debianfork.org/ | 00:43 |
| shauno | "only few of us have the time and patience to interact with Debian on a voluntary basis." | 00:44 |
| shauno | they can't vote because they're not DDs and don't have the time to be DDs. | 00:44 |
| shauno | but they do have the time to roll their own distro | 00:44 |
| shauno | this, to me, sounds like a trainwreck best observed from a distance | 00:44 |

| popey | o/ | 17:03 |
| diddledan | howdo popey , penguin42 | 17:03 |
| zmoylan-pi | shops weren't too manic today, cold seems to have made more people shop on amazon i think | 17:06 |
| penguin42 | Manchester was pretty manic | 17:08 |
| popey | yeah, wasn't much in aldershot | 17:10 |
| popey | although the shops there aren't exactly great ⍨ | 17:10 |
| * popey went to see Paddington | 17:11 | |
| zmoylan-pi | did you bring a parent along for the gritty scenes? :-P | 17:12 |
| diddledan | I heard people have been bemoaning about paddington | 17:13 |
| diddledan | something along the lines of "he's scruffy" | 17:13 |
| Guest99956 | hi guys, using gnome 3.12 installed via ppa on ubuntu 14.04. since the upgrade of gnome i cant use the trint screen button. and the "change desktop background" is missing form the right click option, can any one help pls | 17:13 |
| zmoylan-pi | is there a way to wear a duffle coat and not look scruffy? :-) | 17:14 |
| * penguin42 grumbles at a 500 on beeb radio4 | 17:17 | |
| zmoylan-pi | they're killing off some of their services now, aren't they and pushing towards their iplayer thingie | 17:18 |
| diddledan | a 500? | 17:18 |
| penguin42 | diddledan: server error | 17:20 |
| penguin42 | diddledan: http://static.bbci.co.uk/programmes/2.98.0/img/error/500.gif | 17:20 |
| diddledan | on the radio? | 17:20 |
| penguin42 | yes | 17:20 |
| diddledan | er.. | 17:20 |
| diddledan | how? | 17:21 |
| penguin42 | diddledan: No, I mean on their online radio programmer | 17:21 |
| penguin42 | program | 17:21 |
| diddledan | o_O | 17:22 |
| diddledan | I'm confused | 17:22 |
| diddledan | so every male geek's fantasy woman has written a book: http://feliciadaybook.com/ | 17:24 |

| * zmoylan-pi quibbles the use of the word 'every' | 17:24 | |
| ali1234 | does anyne use geany? | 17:27 |
| ali1234 | how do i make it recognise my source files automatically? | 17:28 |
| zmoylan-pi | right click on the files and change the association? | 17:52 |
| zmoylan-pi | depends on the file manager really | 17:52 |
| diddledan | I think he means in the project explorer | 17:52 |
| zmoylan-pi | ah, my bad | 17:52 |
| ali1234 | yeah, i wanted it to show all the files in my project, not just the ones currently open | 18:07 |
| ali1234 | but it doesn't seem to wowrk that way | 18:08 |
| ali1234 | how do i make it does cmake out-of-source builds? | 18:09 |

| ali1234 | "pointer smuggling" lol | 21:29 |
| ali1234 | you've got to love C++... | 21:30 |
| penguin42 | pointer smuggling? | 21:51 |
| ali1234 | penguin42: in OOP you can make classes that can't be instantiated in normal ways, like singletons with private constructors | 22:00 |
| penguin42 | you mean that can only be constructed by children or friends or something? | 22:00 |
| ali1234 | or by a static factory method | 22:00 |
| ali1234 | but due to C++ being how it is, there's often a way to break it and get a pointer to the underlying object | 22:01 |
| ali1234 | and then delete it | 22:02 |
| penguin42 | got an example? | 22:04 |
| ali1234 | no | 22:05 |
| penguin42 | no prob | 22:05 |
| * penguin42 hasn't done C++ for about a year, and I never got into very complex tricks | 22:05 | |
| ali1234 | i was just reading stack exchange and someone mentioned "pointer smuggling" | 22:06 |
| ali1234 | http://stackoverflow.com/questions/17134925/how-to-force-only-smart-pointers-instance-for-a-class | 22:06 |
| penguin42 | the quick search I did for that came up with stuff for smuggling flags in pointers no tsmuggling pointers | 22:06 |
| ali1234 | i wonder if this stuff is any easier in C# | 22:08 |
| ali1234 | i've just implemented what is essentially a state machine where each state is a class | 22:10 |
| ali1234 | and each state returns a new state object which is the next state | 22:11 |
| ali1234 | but only when it is finished | 22:11 |
| ali1234 | and also you can have transition states where the previous and next state are active at the same time | 22:11 |
| ali1234 | this required smart pointers in order for things to get deleted | 22:11 |
| SuperEngineer | sounds like you just invented Aerica! Too late, mate, it's all ready there! | 22:13 |
| ali1234 | what is Aerica? | 22:14 |
| SuperEngineer | exactly | 22:14 |
| daftykins | America perhaps | 22:14 |
| * daftykins turns up the SuperEngineer decoder :D | 22:14 | |
| SuperEngineer | [though some *do* call it America, admittedly] | 22:15 |
| ali1234 | http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aerican_Empire | 22:15 |
| ali1234 | so anyway the benefit of all this is i can define classes like TitleScreen or LoadingScreen and they all extend from the same base | 22:19 |
| ali1234 | and transition effects like Wipe also extend the same base | 22:19 |
| ali1234 | and when a particular screen is finished you just make it return Wipe(this, next) | 22:20 |
| ali1234 | and you get a wipe. simple, but really annoying to implement that one base class | 22:20 |
| SuperEngineer | yup, definitely sounds like Aerica to me! | 22:36 |
| SuperEngineer | ;) | 22:36 |
