| theblazehen | morning all | 06:06 |
| theblazehen | squish102: What's the cpu load like? Fan running? | 06:06 |
| theblazehen | I've idled at ~70 with a pentium E2220 or something with the fan stopped | 06:07 |
| Kilos | morning all | 06:41 |
| theblazehen | hi Kilos | 06:52 |
| inetpro | good mornings | 08:13 |
| theblazehen | hi inetpro | 08:15 |
| Kilos | hi inetpro theblazehen | 08:16 |
| theblazehen | hi Kilos | 08:16 |
| theblazehen | Anyone else forget what the command is they need to run, so they just look away from keyboard and display and type from muscle memory? | 08:19 |
| gremble | When that happens I default to "sudo pacman -Syu" so I try not to | 08:21 |
| chesedo | lol, morning all | 08:23 |
| gremble | Cheers. Time to go write calculus | 08:24 |
| theblazehen | hey chesedo | 08:24 |
| theblazehen | cheers gremble | 08:24 |
| theblazehen | repeatedly typing ls also helps me concentrate | 08:24 |
| chesedo | oh, all of the best with that gremble | 08:33 |
| inetpro | theblazehen: it irritates me that I do this but pressing ENTER, ENTER and ls -la helps me to remember what I wanted to do | 09:21 |
| inetpro | not always, but often | 09:22 |
| theblazehen | inetpro: Glad I'm not alone then :) | 09:23 |
| * Kilos keeps quiet | 09:24 | |
| paddatrapper | I do exactly the same. ls is stuck in my muscle memory | 09:25 |
| chesedo | I would normally use '<ctrl> + r' to search the history if i can remember part of the command | 09:25 |
| Kilos | lol | 09:26 |
| Kilos | i ask the pro or you guys what i must use | 09:26 |
| chesedo | Kilos: now you know what we do behind the scene to help you :D | 09:27 |
| Kilos | hahahaha | 09:27 |
| Kilos | ty | 09:27 |
| chesedo | ... so just ignore the start of our help if it starts with 'ls' | 09:28 |
| Kilos | and here i was thinking you guys have wonderful memories | 09:28 |
| theblazehen | Kilos: Heh. We have a small cache (brain), then main memory is ^R, and disk is google | 09:30 |
| Kilos | hahaha | 09:30 |
| chesedo | lol | 09:31 |
| chesedo | theblazehen: you saying my brain is volatile :P | 09:31 |
| theblazehen | chesedo: Well when you're powered off (Not suspend), you *do* lose all the data in your brain.. | 09:32 |
| chesedo | ...only after about 5 mins thu, which asks the question: why aren't main mem like that yet | 09:34 |
| theblazehen | Well, they kinda are.. Just gotta keep them cold | 09:35 |
| theblazehen | chesedo: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cold_boot_attack | 09:35 |
| inetpro | lots of info is available in your long term memory as well, we're just lazy to access this slower resource often enough | 09:35 |
| chesedo | theblazehen: wow, thats interesting | 09:37 |
| inetpro | wish I could see the total usage in units of digital information | 09:37 |
| theblazehen | chesedo: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category:Side-channel_attacks for more fun | 09:37 |
| theblazehen | Here we go on a wikipedia binge again.. | 09:38 |
| chesedo | inetpro: heard the other day that our brains contain can something in the EB (exabyte = 1024 petabyte) of data | 09:42 |
| Kilos | our brains are wonderful, its us that dont know how to use them correctly | 09:42 |
| chesedo | ... or was that our body... one DNA stran is 18MB which it was built on if i remember correctly | 09:42 |
| theblazehen | chesedo: Yeah, but a lot of it is redundant | 09:44 |
| chesedo | Kilos: well imagine a computer trying to sort that many raw info | 09:44 |
| Kilos | yip | 09:44 |
| chesedo | theblazehen: yip | 09:45 |
| chesedo | ... but that is still 18mb stored in a few nano units | 09:46 |
| Kilos | i read another arcticle that we actually have more dna but its not active | 09:46 |
| Kilos | the aliens disabled it | 09:46 |
| Kilos | hi ChrisDames | 09:47 |
| Kilos | what broke | 09:47 |
| ChrisDames | lmga | 09:48 |
| inetpro | chesedo: the bigger challenge is to transfer from body to another | 09:48 |
| inetpro | from one body* | 09:48 |
| Kilos | they are working on that inetpro | 09:48 |
| ChrisDames | just trying to register | 09:48 |
| ChrisDames | hi Kilos | 09:49 |
| Kilos | to put human brains in robot bodies | 09:49 |
| ChrisDames | how do I login? | 09:49 |
| Kilos | loin where | 09:49 |
| Kilos | login where | 09:49 |
| ChrisDames | xchat | 09:49 |
| chesedo | Kilos: lol, maybe that because more that 95% of all DNA are the same - they are a lot like program functions and we only differ in the parameters we send those 'functions' | 09:49 |
| Kilos | you mean on this channel | 09:49 |
| ChrisDames | yip | 09:50 |
| Kilos | you have registered the nick ChrisDames | 09:50 |
| Kilos | didnt you | 09:50 |
| ChrisDames | dunno received a mail saying must use this link to register | 09:50 |
| Kilos | to make it identify you you type in /msg nickserv identify password | 09:51 |
| Kilos | to register you do /msg nickserv register ChrisDames email address | 09:51 |
| Kilos | i gthink | 09:52 |

| ChrisDames | ok Kilos lets just leave this register process, maybe someday | 09:55 |
| Kilos | why | 09:55 |
| Kilos | didnt you register it long ago | 09:55 |

| ChrisDames | ja daar doer in de Bosveld | 09:57 |
| ChrisDames | cheers Kilos | 09:57 |
| Kilos | cheers for now | 09:58 |
| Kilos | ai! | 09:58 |
| Kilos | apparently our disabled dna gives us other powers chesedo | 09:58 |
| chesedo | hmm, ok | 09:59 |
| Kilos | like telepathy and those advanced things | 09:59 |
| Kilos | bending spoons with the mind and so on | 09:59 |
| Kilos | and foresight | 10:00 |
| thatgraemeguy | o_O | 10:00 |
| Kilos | hi thatgraemeguy | 10:00 |
| chesedo | lol, i also use my mind to command muscle contraction - which can bend spoons (if strong enough) | 10:01 |
| Kilos | lol | 10:01 |
| Kilos | no man | 10:01 |
| Kilos | some peeps can pick up a cup of coffee with their minds | 10:01 |
| Kilos | hands at their sidews | 10:02 |
| thatgraemeguy | nobody can do that | 10:02 |
| thatgraemeguy | end of story | 10:02 |
| Kilos | maybe only magicians | 10:02 |
| chesedo | they must be quite the sight with their brain sticking out :P | 10:02 |
| Kilos | lol | 10:02 |
| Kilos | ive read lots of funny stuff | 10:02 |
| Kilos | even a tweet about the uk queen shapeshifting | 10:03 |
| thatgraemeguy | yeah you can read pretty much anything, that doesn't make it true or possible | 10:03 |
| thatgraemeguy | nobody is moving things with their mind. period. | 10:03 |
| Kilos | im not arguing | 10:04 |
| Kilos | but if we could use our whole brain im sure we will be able to do many things we see as impossible now | 10:05 |
| thatgraemeguy | the idea that we only use a portion of our brain is a myth | 10:06 |
| Kilos | like ptotographic memory | 10:06 |
| Kilos | photographic | 10:06 |
| thatgraemeguy | photographic memory isn't impossible, just rare | 10:06 |
| Kilos | and those others we see as retards that can do magic maths | 10:06 |
| chesedo | Kilos: when things do not have dates, names or explanations then you can be sure that it is false (just look at the whatsapp message - and others - that is constantly doing their rounds) | 10:06 |
| Kilos | thats just a different part of their brain that works as ours all should | 10:07 |
| Kilos | ok the queen shapeshifting gave dates times and place | 10:08 |
| chesedo | Kilos: magic maths is just build on doing maths a bit different than normal (from left to right for a base) | 10:08 |
| Kilos | tweeters should be able to find it | 10:08 |
| thatgraemeguy | people don't shapeshift. people don't move physical objects without physical contact of some kind | 10:08 |
| thatgraemeguy | twitter is not a scientific source of anything | 10:09 |
| Kilos | they gave links to the event but i dont waste data | 10:09 |
| thatgraemeguy | it. didn't. happen. | 10:09 |
| Kilos | ok | 10:09 |
| chesedo | Kilos: regarding the shapeshifting - do you think it might be similar to other optical illusion and would you have spotted it if someone did not point it out to you first? | 10:10 |
| Kilos | i have no idea, that stuff is all beyong me | 10:11 |
| Kilos | i battler to shift this boby around as it used to | 10:11 |
| thatgraemeguy | if you didn't see it happen in front of you, it is bull | 10:11 |
| MaN1 | even if it did it might be, the eyes and brain are quite good at playing tricks on you :p | 10:15 |
| === MaN1 is now known as MaNI | ||
| thatgraemeguy | If anyone recently jumped on the google music bandwagon and has been lamenting the lack of media key support: http://www.googleplaymusicdesktopplayer.com/ | 10:43 |
| thatgraemeguy | now if only I could find a cost-effective radio upgrade for my Jeep I wouldn't need to muck around with CDs full of MP3s like some kind of savage :-( | 10:44 |
| Kilos | lol | 10:45 |

| Kilos | ah | 16:46 |
| Kilos | i dont know why that popped into the mind | 16:46 |
| Kilos | lol | 16:46 |
| inetpro | nothing wrong with your long term memory | 16:47 |
| Kilos | nope | 16:48 |
| inetpro | just need to tweak it some so we can transfer it to a backup | 16:49 |
| Kilos | lol | 16:49 |
| inetpro | life is way too short | 16:51 |
| Kilos | yeah | 16:51 |
| Kilos | actually life is long enough but time is the prob | 16:51 |
| inetpro | would be awesome if one could analyse all the stuff inside that memory for many years to come | 16:52 |
| Kilos | yeah | 16:52 |
| inetpro | friend of mine on his bike was hit with a car from behind this week | 16:53 |
| Kilos | eish | 16:54 |

| theblazehen | " Outline of MySQL ("My Structured Query Language") – world's second most widely used relational database management system (RDBMS) and most widely used open-source RDBMS." listed on https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Portal:Contents/Technology_and_applied_sciences.... I don't think it's *that* important | 18:39 |
| Kilos | night all. sleep tight | 18:42 |
| theblazehen | night Kilos | 18:42 |
| inetpro | theblazehen: what are you trying to say about MySQL? | 19:11 |
| theblazehen | inetpro: I don't think it's appropriate as a whole category in the computing portal. Cryptography as an example is a single link, which branches out. Mysql doesn't deserve to be on the portal itself, but maybe behind a databases category | 19:12 |
| inetpro | hmm... ok | 19:13 |
| theblazehen | https://deis.com/blog/2016/kubernetes-illustrated-guide/ doing a *great* job of making me like it /s | 19:13 |
| inetpro | cool | 19:14 |
| theblazehen | I hate websites that try and look good but fail at high res. Literally the title on the left and a picture on the right.. On a 4k display.. http://www.nytimes.com/2016/06/19/magazine/the-parasite-underground.html?_r=0 | 19:16 |
| inetpro | hate is a strong word theblazehen | 19:26 |
| paddatrapper | Why do people insist on sending me .doc files?? At least use a sensible format like PDF | 19:27 |
| inetpro | paddatrapper: PDF are often an overkill though | 19:28 |
| inetpro | files* | 19:28 |
| theblazehen | inetpro: Dislike then | 19:29 |
| inetpro | :-) | 19:29 |
| paddatrapper | inetpro: But a booking sheet does not need to tied into the Microsoft ecosystem, even just a plain text file would be preferable | 19:30 |
| inetpro | exactly | 19:30 |
| inetpro | in fact, I often say, just send me the contents in a plain email message | 19:31 |
| inetpro | without an attachment | 19:31 |
| paddatrapper | I'd agree with that | 19:31 |
| paddatrapper | Then I could answer it on my phone without having to wait until I get home/in wifi range to deal with it | 19:32 |
| inetpro | paddatrapper: what really irks me is when people ask for software to convert a PDF file to something else | 19:34 |
| paddatrapper | They clearly don't get the point of a PDF then... | 19:35 |
| inetpro | I rest my case | 19:35 |
| theblazehen | Eh, we don't need anything more than ANSI anyway. It has line drawing characters after all | 19:37 |
| inetpro | used those back in the days of MS DOS to draw borders around app display areas | 19:38 |
| theblazehen | heh | 19:48 |
| * theblazehen used to love qbasic... | 19:48 | |
| theblazehen | Then moved to quickbasic. You could compile stuff! | 19:48 |
| MaNI | gorillas.bas \o/ | 19:49 |
| inetpro | Clarion 3.0 with it's Turbo C compiler ftw! | 19:57 |
