07:09 <DrJoeTron> ok so we're talking about radical named teams and how if i ever started a clan it would be "Dinosaurs with hats" and it would be 
07:09  * Luke-Jr notes XMMS is GTK1
07:10 <DrJoeTron> the most ferocious clan ever and would shout annoying extreeme things
07:10  * Lucifer_arma notes he could just write up a playlist builder
07:10 <Luke-Jr> I like MPD
07:10 <DrJoeTron> mom said he wanted to make a clan where the tag was so big that you could only have numbers
07:10 <Lucifer_arma> glad to hear that, Luke-Jr 
07:10 <Luke-Jr> 'night
07:11 <Lucifer_arma> ok, get past the clan formation part and get to the part where WPN gets involved

07:13 <DrJoeTron> which they agreed to
07:13 <DrJoeTron> it was tie until the end 
07:14 <DrJoeTron> and they started whining about lag
07:14 <DrJoeTron> and we just kept reiiterating the idiocy they were saying to us
07:14 <DrJoeTron> we won then they made us play again
07:14 <DrJoeTron> and we won by a land slide
07:14 <Lucifer_arma> wait a minute, reiterating what idiocy?
07:14 <Lucifer_arma> they were whining about lag, so you guys whined about lag?
07:14 <DrJoeTron> "rofl dont even try plying fortress
07:14 <DrJoeTron> and "dood we won"

07:15 <DrJoeTron> we being me
07:15 <DrJoeTron> and mom just typing lol if there was a punchline to be had
07:15 <DrJoeTron> or rofl copter
07:16 <DrJoeTron> like "WPN can onle pwn noobs cuz dats all they can pwn ROFL! HURRRRR!!!!!
07:16 <DrJoeTron> and they kept sayting "god it keeps lagging, lets go to LOD fortress"
07:17 <DrJoeTron> and we kept saying "SORE LOOZZAR ROFL
07:17 <DrJoeTron> and then durka got on the admin line and said "go fuck yourselves"and banned us
07:17 <DrJoeTron> made my night
07:17 <Lucifer_arma> so, basically, after the tie got broken they just kept complaining about lag?
07:17 <DrJoeTron> yeah
07:18 <Lucifer_arma> of course, had the tie broken the other way, then they were having pristine perfect connections
07:18 <DrJoeTron> of course
07:18 <DrJoeTron> well unfortunate for them
07:18 <DrJoeTron> im like RIGHT by the server
07:18 <DrJoeTron> since its luke's
07:18 <Lucifer_arma> heh, you guys should've told me when I went in so I could've come back under a more suitable name :)
07:18 <DrJoeTron> so i ping was almost as good at being at lobster cage
07:18 <DrJoeTron> they kept asking if we have more members
07:18 <DrJoeTron> since he was 1 and i was 4
07:19 <DrJoeTron> you wanna be 7?
07:19 <Lucifer_arma> sure
07:19 <DrJoeTron> haha great
07:19 <Lucifer_arma> long as we all agree it's not a real clan :)
07:19 <DrJoeTron> duh
07:19 <DrJoeTron> members 2 and 3 are out getting busines cards made
07:19 <DrJoeTron> saying DINOSAURS WITH HATS RULES
07:21 <DrJoeTron> http://img.waffleimages.com/1efe8714d5907fce946cb85e3f966a92f9ff6512/raptor.JPG just thing this
07:21 <DrJoeTron> think*
07:21 <DrJoeTron> but yeah
07:21 <DrJoeTron> or pick a number so long as it isnt over 10
07:22 <DrJoeTron> or is 10
07:23 <DrJoeTron> but
07:23 <DrJoeTron> keep it on the DL that its dinosaurs with hats
07:23 <DrJoeTron> because i was seen talking about this earlier
07:24 <DrJoeTron> so i'm tied to it
07:24 <DrJoeTron> i think i was
07:26 <Lucifer_arma> so what's the clan tag?
07:26 <Lucifer_arma> or rather, I'm going in with my regular name right now, but I"ll need the clan tag sooner or later :)
07:27 <DrJoeTron> ~''|~DWH~|''~
07:29 <DrJoeTron> so i went in
07:29 <DrJoeTron> and im now longer banned
07:29 <DrJoeTron> no*
07:29 <DrJoeTron> but they think im slush now
07:29 <DrJoeTron> or someone
07:29 <DrJoeTron> or mom
07:29 <DrJoeTron> well
07:29 <DrJoeTron> 7 at least

10:04 <Lucifer_arma> shawcable means they're canadian
10:05 <anjori> indeed i am
10:05 <Lucifer_arma> [01:59] --> Arma09 has joined this channel (n=Arma09@S0106001150573138.vc.shawcable.net).
10:05 <Lucifer_arma> and you're the person I was trying to remember being on shawcable :)
10:06 <Lucifer_arma> wait a minute, that *is* you
10:06 <anjori> have you heard the hans reiser news?
10:06 <anjori> yes
10:06 <Lucifer_arma> he's a killer?
10:07 <Lucifer_arma> in a way I hope he did kill his wife
10:07 <anjori> oh?
10:07 <Lucifer_arma> it would show that the open source community is big enough to contain the requisite number of killers any large population has to have
10:07 <Lucifer_arma> I guess it's not a milestone you really shoot for
10:08 <anjori> heh
10:08 <Lucifer_arma> but I hope he turns out innocent so he can finish reiser4 :)
10:08  * Lucifer_arma switched his server out to reiserFS awhile back and is really happy with it
10:09 <anjori> tasteless, but geekfully funny joke on slashdot: What's the difference between O.J. and Hans Reiser?
10:09 <Lucifer_arma> what's eerie is that my wife just hooked up the antenna the other day (reiser kept a journal) and I watched some show about a lawyer
10:09 <Lucifer_arma> and they did exctly the same thing, indicted the suspect before they had the body
10:10 <anjori> heh. you must have read, too.
10:10 <Lucifer_arma> yeah, sometimes the slashdot crowd is really good at digging up further information for a story
10:10 <Lucifer_arma> and let's face it, the sanfran page pretty much painted him as a killer who deserved to burn in hell for all eternity
10:10 <anjori> i'm using reiser(3)fs, bit don't know really know enough about the pros and cons compared to ext3.
10:11 <Lucifer_arma> well, I can't say I've seen a performance gain, but I have seen some partitions shrink in size
10:11 <Lucifer_arma> my webserver seems to be running slower, but it's also more loaded up than it was when it was on ext3
10:12 <anjori> and an ext4 patch was just announced
10:12 <Lucifer_arma> I think I've got a more serious problem there though, the server's going down seemingly at random.  :(
10:12 <Lucifer_arma> what's ext4 supposed to give us over ext3?
10:13 <anjori> hold on, finding the link
10:13  * Lucifer_arma notes that ext3 is a fine filesystem
10:13 <anjori> http://www.kr.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/people/akpm/patches/2.6/2.6.19-rc1/2.6.19-rc1-mm1/announce.txt
10:14 <anjori> the digg summary: "Andrew Morton released a new -mm patch this morning, it includes, among other things, the new ext4 filesystem patch. The ext4 filesystem promises improved data integrity and performance, among with less limitations."
10:14 <Lucifer_arma> http://lwn.net/Articles/187321/
10:16 <anjori> thats one of the lins i came across earlier when i was looking them up
10:16 <anjori> *links
10:18 <anjori> i'm divided. i've read about some of the ext3 limitations, but then there's arguments against reiser also (mainly what i'm read from a suse dev, and that they decided to drop reiserfs for ext3)
10:19 <Lucifer_arma> wow, I didn't know ext3 was limited to only 8TB.  Whatever will we do?
10:19 <Lucifer_arma> I only care about 2 things: stability and performance
10:19 <Lucifer_arma> and stability is more important than performance.  :)
10:20 <Lucifer_arma> so I tend to stay away from various filesystem discussions because the stuff people argue about don't matter to me as long as the filesystem is stable and performs reasonably
10:20 <anjori> i'd love stability and no data loss, of course, but having a desktop and not a server where i transfer a lot of media around, performance is nice, too
10:22 <Lucifer_arma> I find the bottleneck for me is the network more often than not
10:23 <Lucifer_arma> after that, it's the CPU
10:23 <anjori> though i've read a bit about optimizing stuff too (like by using hdparm, which i'm afraid to touch), and it's likely, at least in part, my lack of knowledge.
10:23 <Lucifer_arma> but I can see where performance starts to matter even for some desktop applications.  Multi-track mixing, for example.  What if you have a 32-track digital recording system?
10:24 <Lucifer_arma> so you've taken 32 tracks of 98khz 32-bit float audio and you need to mix them together and then render them out to a 2-track master
10:24 <Lucifer_arma> hdparm is pretty easy, mainly you just make sure you've got the really fast mode turned on (DMA?)
10:24 <Lucifer_arma> so it can use teh 100/133mhz bus instead of the 33mhz bus
10:25 <Lucifer_arma> and then you want the filesystem to basically be defragmented on the fly
10:25 <anjori> dma is on, yes. the other stuff, i don't really know anything about. was reading an article about it, and with the *chance* of data loss and recommeding messing with it in single user mode, i declined
10:25 <Lucifer_arma> yeah, I think I went through that same process with the same result :)
10:26 <Lucifer_arma> I just find that the bottlenecks on my system are usually pretty high above the filesystem.  I spend more time waiting for my application to do what I told it to than I do saving/opening files
10:27 <Lucifer_arma> I also trust that there are really good hackers keeping their eyes on the filesystem for me so I don't have to worry about it :)
10:27 <Lucifer_arma> I'm a go grab a smoke and then head to bed, test in the morning

16:32 <wrtlprnft> grr, i hate the w3 for their svg path spec
16:32 <wrtlprnft> it's a pain to parse
16:37 <nemostultae> Yes, it is.
16:37 <wrtlprnft> trying to write something to convert paths to aamaps
16:38 <wrtlprnft> because unfortunately inkscape and oodraw put everything in paths
16:38 <wrtlprnft> so I can't use your converter
16:39 <nemostultae> I think I worked on adding that. I forget if I finished or not.
16:40 <wrtlprnft> once you have the numbers in a better format it should be easy, as there's a good wikipedia page on bézier curves :)
16:41 <nemostultae> I have code that does linetos and closepaths for paths.
16:42 <nemostultae> If you give me a sample svg document I can test it.
16:42 <wrtlprnft> does it read the path according to the w3 specs?
16:42 <wrtlprnft> ie all those little shortcuts it allows
16:42 <wrtlprnft> like writing l123-54..5.6
16:43 <wrtlprnft> which would mean l 123 -54 l 0.5 0.6
16:44 <nemostultae> ugh, doesn't do that.
16:44 <wrtlprnft> x_X
16:45 <nemostultae> Your vector editor actually produces that?
16:45 <wrtlprnft> no
16:45 <wrtlprnft> but another one might
16:45 <wrtlprnft> though, you're right, i could ignore that for now
16:45 <wrtlprnft> but it does omit that extra l

16:56 <wrtlprnft> btw your forum link is dead
17:00 <nemostultae> ugh, it doesn't match floats.
17:01 <wrtlprnft> i still need to figure out how to run it :P
17:01 <nemostultae> Got a better regex than  this to match floats? [+-]?\d+(?:\.\d+)?
17:02 <wrtlprnft> i don't think + is allowed
17:02 <nemostultae> :(
17:02 <nemostultae> Does it allow exponents?
17:02 <wrtlprnft> sec

17:06 <wrtlprnft> -?\d*(.\d*)?([eE]-?\d*)? ← better

17:07 <nemostultae> SVG2AAMap::PathData.new.parse("path data here")

19:29 <wrtlprnft> nemostultae: how do you run the tests? I can run it from everywhere i want, it never manages to find and include the main svg2aamap module
19:31 <nemostultae> I use rake. “rake test” runs all tests.
19:31 <nemostultae> Or you can run the  like this (assuming you are at the top-level directory):
19:31 <nemostultae> ruby -Ilib path/to/test/file
19:31 <nemostultae> run them*
19:33 <wrtlprnft> need to emerge rake
19:33 <wrtlprnft> thought that was a macos-only thing
19:34 <nemostultae> I think rubyforge is down right now… so you won't be able to get it.
19:35 <wrtlprnft> gentoo has it
19:35 <nemostultae> ah
19:35 <wrtlprnft> (in /home/mathias/armagetronad3/tools/svg2aamap)
19:35 <wrtlprnft> rake aborted!
19:35 <wrtlprnft> no such file to load -- rcov/rcovtask

19:35 <wrtlprnft> (See full trace by running task with --trace)
19:35 <nemostultae> rcov is a code coverage tool
19:36 <nemostultae> http://packages.gentoo.org/search/?sstring=rcov
19:37 <nemostultae> I also use flexmock (http://onestepback.org/software/flexmock/) to mock objects in some tests.
19:37 <wrtlprnft> marked as unstable, that makes for 97 unstable packages on my system…
19:37 <wrtlprnft> o well
19:41 <nemostultae> this is what rcov does (rake rcov) → http://generalconsumption.org/tmp/coverage/
19:43 <wrtlprnft> “gem install flexmock” takes forever
19:43 <wrtlprnft> gentoo doesn't have it
19:44 <nemostultae> gem uses rubyforge, which is down (their servers crashed).
19:44 <wrtlprnft> oh
19:44 <wrtlprnft> so i could wait forever for it
19:45 <nemostultae> here, I have the gem, let me upload it.
19:46 <nemostultae> http://generalconsumption.org/tmp/flexmock-0.3.2.gem
19:46 <nemostultae> just cd to where the gem is and do gem install flexmock.
19:46 <wrtlprnft> ty
19:46 <wrtlprnft> figured that out already :)
19:47 <wrtlprnft> runs now, gonna incorporate my changes, delete that swapfile and commit
19:48 <wrtlprnft>         when /[-+]?\d+(?:\.\d+)?(?:[eE][+-]?\d+)?/
19:48 <wrtlprnft> what are those “?:” after “(” for?
19:50 <nemostultae> (?: ) means don't capture the group
19:50 <wrtlprnft> ah
19:50 <wrtlprnft> must be a ruby extension, never heard of it in other regular expressions (grep, vim, awk, perl etc)
19:50 <nemostultae> it is from perl, IIRC.
19:51 <wrtlprnft> oh, ok. Only use pregs in php sometimes because they're supposed to be faster
19:53 <armabot> armagetronad: wrtlprnft * r6213 /tools/svg2aamap/ (3 files in 2 dirs): Removed accidentially committed swap file, the parser can now handle implicit L/l commands after M/m commands.
19:55 <nemostultae> You can leave of “then” on if statements, btw.
19:55 <nemostultae> off*
19:56 <wrtlprnft> oh, i put one on because it complained, but it was just a missing bracket after all

19:58 <Vanhayes> some games dont like x-chat
19:59 <Vanhayes> it screws the game up and closes x-chat
20:00 <wrtlprnft> how would an irc client screw up a game?
20:05 <wrtlprnft> nemostultae: is it possible to extract parts of an array, like in python “someList[1:5]”?
20:05  * wrtlprnft thinks he should take the time and read some ruby tutorial
20:06 <nemostultae> Yes, you use ranges: somelist[1..5], where the .. is special syntax to create ranges. You can also do it by calling Range.new(1, 5).
20:06 <wrtlprnft> ah
20:08 <wrtlprnft> thanks
20:13 <luke-jr_work> nemostultae, sounds like MOO
20:29 <wrtlprnft>             (x1, y1, x2, y2, x3, y3, x4, y4) = parsed[-8,-1]
20:29 <wrtlprnft>             parsed = parsed[0,-7]
20:29 <wrtlprnft> nemostultae: would that be supposed to work? because it doesn'T
20:29 <wrtlprnft> parsed is nil after
20:46 <wrtlprnft> nemostultae: is there something like a “test_similar”, because I can't have exact tests for the bezier curves because they're floats
20:47 <nemostultae> assert_in_delta(expected_float, actual_float, delta, message="")
20:47 <wrtlprnft> thanks
20:47 <wrtlprnft> googling on ruby seems to be inefficient
20:48 <nemostultae> For the problems you were having, you can't have a negative length, AFAIK.
20:48 <wrtlprnft> yeah, figured that
20:48 <wrtlprnft> apparently it's [start,length]
20:48 <wrtlprnft> and not [start,end] like in python
20:49 <wrtlprnft> The arguments must respond to to_f; the first float did not.
20:50 <wrtlprnft> but they are all floats!
20:50 <wrtlprnft> or
20:50 <wrtlprnft> *or doesn't it accept arrays?
20:52 <nemostultae> Yeah, it only accepts floats. You need to loop over your expected array and do assert_in_delta for each element.
20:52 <wrtlprnft> hmm, ok
20:58 <wrtlprnft> ok, parses C commands now :)
20:59 <wrtlprnft> now, for parsing c commands i have no idea to what the coordinates should be relative. To the last point, or to the last given coordinate, ie the “handles”, too
21:01 <wrtlprnft> so should “M 0 0 c 0,100 100,0 0,-100” evaluate to “M 0 0 C 0,100 100,100 100,0” or “M 0 0 C 0,100 100,0 0,-100”?

22:19 <Vanhayes> hmm, CBC is slower than BBC it seems, they just got the storie now
22:19 <Lucifer_arma> we need a war on drunken piloting
22:19 <Lucifer_arma> those bastards have attacked our freedom!
22:19 <armabot> armagetronad: nemostultae * r6215 /tools/svg2aamap/ (8 files in 3 dirs): Added ellipse and circle elements.
22:19 <Lucifer_arma> it's probably because NK did a nuke test
22:21 <DrJoeTron> haha
22:21 <DrJoeTron> we fight...for america!
22:22 <Lucifer_arma> that's right, we gotta go torture NK now because of this!
22:22 <DrJoeTron> yeah!
22:22 <Vanhayes> but they have nukes
22:22 <DrJoeTron> we have more
22:22 <Lucifer_arma> hmmm, maybe we shouldn't then
22:22 <Vanhayes> heh true
22:23 <Lucifer_arma> ok, fine, let's go into Thailand!
22:23 <Vanhayes> possibilty of nukes=invade  actual nukes=ask for UN sanctions
22:23 <Lucifer_arma> you've played freeciv, Vanhayes , you know the score
22:24 <Lucifer_arma> you just do your part to make sure canada gets nukes before we run out of fresh water down here
22:24 <Vanhayes> I dont think we want them
22:25 <Vanhayes> unless we get on U.S badside I dont think we will get nuked
22:25 <Lucifer_arma> oh no, nobody'll actually nuke anybody, except spidey.  But they work really nicely as a deterrant.
22:25 <Lucifer_arma> You could say that nukes make good deterrants, but really shitty detergents.
22:26 <Vanhayes> heh
22:26 <Lucifer_arma> and with Republican resource management being what it is, we'll probably run out of water in a couple of decades
22:27 <Lucifer_arma> rather, with the Republicans in charge, all the rich people will have water.  With the Democrats in charge, we'll all run out together, at the same time.
22:28 <Vanhayes> hmmm, I remember hearing something about a bunch of countries coming into canada's artic to look for oil a while back
22:28 <Lucifer_arma> " and then took every opportunity to personally insult the country's reportedly unstable dictator because it played well politically at home."
22:28 <Lucifer_arma> ok, so which world leaders does this passage refer?
22:29 <Vanhayes> hmm, bush?
22:29 <Lucifer_arma> I should have changed "dictator" to "leader" or something politically-neutral
22:30 <Lucifer_arma> because it could refer to any of half a dozen european leaders, middle-east leaders (including terrorist leaders), african, asian, etc.
22:30 <Lucifer_arma> Russia vs Georgia, France vs the US, NK vs SK, etc.  The list goes on.
22:30 <luke-jr_work> suuure
22:30 <Lucifer_arma> luke-jr_work vs the world
22:31 <Lucifer_arma> but yeah, you're right, it's an op-ed about bush and NK's nuke test
22:31 <wrtlprnft> nemostultae: nice, though you could convert those to paths if you liked
22:32 <nemostultae> I thought so.

23:24 <Commn> :(
23:25 <Lucifer_arma> "I'm thinking of two numbers whose sum is 17.  One number is 5 more than the other number."  She followed the discussion on why I used x to represent one number and how I figured out the second number
23:25 <Lucifer_arma> at least except for the fact that they haven't taught her multiplication and division yet
23:25 <Commn> then my teacher wanted me to 'show my work' and i lost that ability 
23:25 <Lucifer_arma> I taught her multiplication and division, though.  I told her that Catholics multiply and Republicans divide.
