02:54 <spidey> don't bail tonight if you wanna play civ, luci was 15 minutes away from being ready :(
02:55 <Vanhayes_> when are you starting tonight?
02:56 <spidey> i dunno, still waiting for luci to come around so i can ask if he wants to :P
02:58 <spidey> man
02:58 <spidey> Vanhayes_, in 2.1 the AI's are awesomely better
02:58 <spidey> they can cordinate
02:58 <spidey> they attack with a combined army
02:59 <spidey> ask Your_mom_arma, last night me and luci killed atleast 200 units from 3 different ai's that where trying to break my line, luckily i had 30 tanks and later missiles >.<
03:05 <Vanhayes_> hmm, I think i have 2.1, it isnt that new is it?
03:06 <Vanhayes_> its the beta right?

03:35 <spidey> Vanhayes_, and i love the ai in it
03:35 <spidey> it's kinda like playing with a person that's mediumly good at it
03:35 <spidey> unlike 2.0.8 where you just totally owned them :D
03:36 <Your_mom_arma> DrJoeTron: ?
03:39 <Your_mom_arma> the bad part about that is that the ai is now better then me

04:01 <luke-jr> and there's no autoattack

04:20 <Lucifer_arma> yeah, you sentry a unit, and whenever anyone comes near it, it attacks
04:20 <Lucifer_arma> I still want the 2.0 style auto-attack where the unit will leave the city to attack someone near it, and it does that between turns,
04:20 <Lucifer_arma> but given the choice between them, I like the 2.1 auto-attack better
04:21 <spidey> luci :D
04:21 <luke-jr> so are we playing or what?
04:22 <Lucifer_arma> to be honest, I think 2.1 is so much better than 2.0 that I don't want to go back to 2.0
04:22 <greg_> I would like to and soon. I have to work tomorrow early
04:22 <spidey> well
04:22 <spidey> i like the gui in 2.0 better
04:22 <Lucifer_arma> the deal with air units not doing go-to is annoying though
04:22 <spidey> but i like 2.1 better
04:24 <Lucifer_arma> I think the numpad input is broken, too. When I do numpad-3 it stops moving all units, kind of annoying
04:24 <spidey> really?
04:24 <spidey> 5 does that for me
04:24 <Lucifer_arma> and working the numpad on this laptop keyboard is really a pain in the ass
04:25 <Lucifer_arma> I'm not willing to war against humans with the problems with air units right now :(
04:25 <Lucifer_arma> anyway, I may not be able to play until after midnight tonight, so if you guys want to start a game elsewhere, knock yourselves out
04:25 <Lucifer_arma> try to get luke to upgrade so you don't have to play that worthless 2.0 :)

04:35 <spidey> btw
04:35 <spidey> if luke runs 2.9
04:35 <spidey> 2.0.9
04:35 <Lucifer_arma> lot of fun. :) I've outpaced my class for footwork, nobody can keep up now
04:35 <spidey> and i'm running 2.0.8 why can i connect to him?
04:36 <luke-jr> I like 2.1's GUI
04:36 <Lucifer_arma> they're compatible with each other?
04:36 <spidey> why isn't 2.1?
04:36 <luke-jr> I don't care which one, but there's more 2.0 players
04:36 <Lucifer_arma> 2.0.9 is just a bugfix release
04:36 <spidey> o
04:36 <Lucifer_arma> 2.1 has significant changes that are incompatible with 2.0
04:36 <Lucifer_arma> diplomacy in particular
04:36 <spidey> Vanhayes_, Your_mom_arma wanna play civ?
04:36 <luke-jr> oh, and Luci would need to host or something
04:36 <spidey> wait
04:36 <luke-jr> cuz my server isn't setup for it
04:37 <spidey> nvm, luke'll be leaving in 2 hours
04:37 <spidey> >.<
04:37 <luke-jr> I will?
04:37 <Lucifer_arma> anyway, I may not be able to play until after midnight tonight, so if you guys want to start a game elsewhere, knock yourselves out
04:37 <spidey> you always bail at 12
04:37 <luke-jr> not on Fridays
04:37 <luke-jr> duh
04:37 <luke-jr> though I will need to take a 15 min break at some point
04:37 <spidey> ..
04:38 <luke-jr> or I can take the 15 min now
04:38 <luke-jr> and you can all plan
04:38 <luke-jr> or something
04:38 <greg_> Plan would be good
04:39 <luke-jr> so should I go take my 15 min break now?

05:56 <DrJoeTron> Your_mom_arma ?
06:02 <luke-jr> Lucifer_arma: civ 2.1?
06:02 <luke-jr> Your_mom_arma:
06:04 <luke-jr> Lucifer_arma: hey
06:04 <luke-jr> you have a nation>?
06:17 <Lucifer_arma> so does there appear to be a decrease in wiki spam in the last 4-5 hours? :)
06:17 * Lucifer_arma is going to do one more thing and then stop for now
06:18 <GodTodd> sure sure
06:18 <GodTodd> heh
06:19 <Lucifer_arma> well, I added the spam blacklist extension that wikipedia uses :)
06:19 <Lucifer_arma> at least, it's in the mediawiki svn repo
06:19 <Lucifer_arma> used .htaccess to forbid access to browsers with blank user-agents, since any legitimate user shouldn't be passing a blank user-agent
06:20 <Lucifer_arma> I went through a page that had a how-to to deal with spam for mediawiki. I didn't put the edit captcha, I hate captchas
06:22 <GodTodd> heh
06:22 <Lucifer_arma> I'm thinking about it, though. Apparently it's pretty configurable.
06:25 <GodTodd> fuckers
06:25 <GodTodd> The NMPA had our ISP temporarily shut this site down on 2 November as they do not want free guitar tabs on the internet.
06:25 <GodTodd> Until this is resolved, no guitar tabs can be viewed on this website.
06:25 <GodTodd> Instead, they want you to buy tabs.
06:26 <Lucifer_arma> is that olga?
06:26 <GodTodd> no
06:26 <Lucifer_arma> hey, I found my old tablature CD from when I mirrored olga
06:27 <GodTodd> cool
06:27 <Lucifer_arma> I should copy it to my server for you :)
06:27 <GodTodd> :)
06:27 <Lucifer_arma> it's a few years old, but there's still hundreds of tabs on it
06:27 <GodTodd> well...the stuff i mostly want to learn with is old
06:27 * GodTodd is a fogey after all
06:27 <GodTodd> heh
06:28 <GodTodd> i have bought a few tab books...but really there's not a lot of albums where i want all the songs tabbed :/
06:29 <Lucifer_arma> best tab book I ever bought wasn't an album book anyway, it was an in-depth discussion of megadeth's guitar playing
06:29 <Lucifer_arma> it focused on Dave Mustaine, obviously, but also talked about Marty Friedman a bit, with riffs taken from their songs of course
06:29 <GodTodd> wow...cool :)
06:29 <Lucifer_arma> some of the songs wound up being pretty complete so I was able to learn the song, but the focus was on technique
06:29 <GodTodd> i have a guitarworld dvd/cd that has some lessons from joe satriani
06:30 <GodTodd> i'm not quite to there yet tho heh
06:30 <Lucifer_arma> well, I'm a go grab a smoke, then I need to run to the store
07:23 <Lucifer_arma> holy shit, someone posted to a talk page and it wasn't spam!
07:32 <Your_mom_arma> that last match was lame
07:33 <Your_mom_arma> the match where we just kept passing the flag was hillarius
07:33 <DrJoeTron> haha yeah
07:33 <DrJoeTron> oh man
07:33 <DrJoeTron> we gotta work up patterns for that
07:33 <Your_mom_arma> hey lets just fight this one guy for 20 minutes thats real fair
07:33 <DrJoeTron> yeah what the hell
07:33 <DrJoeTron> it was a battle of who's pc is better
07:33 <Your_mom_arma> that was boring, and they where starting to lose
07:34 <Your_mom_arma> it was me v 5 of them for forever
07:34 <Your_mom_arma> blocking the other teams spawn is a cheap tactic
07:34 <Your_mom_arma> and you cant sit there trying to respawn or you get surrounded
07:35 <DrJoeTron> i fucking hate that buttertroll gideon
07:37 <spidey> Lucifer_arma, Your_mom_arma civ? :D
07:37 <Lucifer_arma> looks like it won't be tonight, I'm pretty sleepy
07:42 <DrJoeTron> Your_mom_arma why aren't you taking the flag back?
07:42 * DrJoeTron /drop
07:43 <DrJoeTron> i think it actually works with people coming after you
07:45 <Your_mom_arma> joe?
07:45 <Your_mom_arma> haha
07:45 <DrJoeTron> :d
07:45 <Your_mom_arma> well that one match we would goof aroundpassing the flag, avoid and kill someone, then resume
07:46 <DrJoeTron> yeah
07:46 <Your_mom_arma> i like how the guys on the other team were so impressed and the guys on our team just slowly got pissed off
07:46 <DrJoeTron> hahaha
07:46 <DrJoeTron> yeah
07:55 <spidey> well
07:56 <spidey> we played 65 turns and luke's already getting pwned by the ai
07:56 <luke-jr> I don't like 2.1 >:O
07:57 <luke-jr> spidey: when you chicken out, /away first
07:57 <spidey> luke-jr, you saving then leaving because you're getting pwned by a easy ai
07:57 <spidey> is chickening out
07:57 <spidey> me leaving because there's no point in continuing
07:57 <spidey> isn't
07:58 <spidey> that's just me not wasting my time
07:58 <Your_mom_arma> haha
07:59 <GodTodd> ah, but isn't starting a game in which luke is involved by definition a waste of time?

09:00 <wrtlprnft> Lucifer_arma: dunno, i copied it over to my personal skin, sec
09:00 <wrtlprnft> Lucifer_arma: ok, it works :)
09:00 <Lucifer_arma> just fallout from the upgrade
09:00 <wrtlprnft> what about the images?
09:01 <Lucifer_arma> I guess I can call it an upgrade since we went from 1.7.0 to 1.7.2
09:01 <Lucifer_arma> I already took care of that, jonathan posted about how to deal with it if you stumble across a page missing its images
09:01 <Lucifer_arma> I'd like to be sure everything's working right, and in a week or so get upgraded to 1.9 (or whatever's the newest)
09:02 <Lucifer_arma> I switched it to a svn checkout from mediawiki. :) So upgrades should just be "svn switch" and run the upgrade script provided
09:02 <wrtlprnft> yeah, i read that
09:03 <wrtlprnft> http://www.ioerror.us/bb2-support-key?key=00000000
09:03 <wrtlprnft> o_O
09:03 <wrtlprnft> i just clicked the first link on that new special page
09:04 <Lucifer_arma> heh. The 0000000 key is kind of funny. :)
09:06 <Lucifer_arma> I like that page, even if it is kind of useless
09:07 <Lucifer_arma> oh yeah, I want to know if the spam blacklist is helping, too. It's the blacklist wikipedia uses, so it should be pretty complete and well-updated, but I'd really like to know if overall spam is reduced by the new measures I've put on
09:08 <Lucifer_arma> obviously it's too early to tell, I only did it a few hours ago, but try to let me know if it makes a difference :)
09:10 * wrtlprnft wouldn't want to know just how much spam wikipedia would get without any measures
09:11 <wrtlprnft> at least now i know how the bad behavior guy earns his money
09:11 <wrtlprnft> those support pages are full of google/adsense links
09:14 <Lucifer_arma> of course. :) He's just another liberal blogger who happened to write a good spam tool. I find his blog pretty annoying, and he talks a lot like luke and acts like he knows everything better than you ever will,
09:14 <Lucifer_arma> but I can't argue with Bad Behavior. It's a very nice tool.
09:15 <Lucifer_arma> but I hate emailing the guy.
09:16 <Lucifer_arma> looks like upgrading to 1.9 should be pretty painless
09:19 <Lucifer_arma> oh yeah, the bug that prevented us from using menutabs should be fixed now, we should probably go back and look at the wiki structuring project
09:20 <wrtlprnft> anyways, i've gotta go now

23:54 <Lucifer_arma> I think I finally figured out why so many geeks like fat chicks.
23:56 <luke-jr> my wife is not fat
23:58 <spidey> LOL!
23:59 <Lucifer_arma> you can't laugh before I deliver the punch line!
23:59 <Lucifer_arma> anyway, it's because fat chicks have bandwidth

• Website was created by nelg
• Design:
» Layout is loosely based on an old design by Durf.
» Icons on the tools page were originally by Royce, new icons added will try to follow some of the design language.
» Various other icon selections include icons from Crystal, crystalsvg, oxygen, and breeze icon themes.
» Other icons: fontawesome

is a site that has tools, maps, and other various items. It orignally only existed as a server control panel, but I slowly began adding stuff such as a homepage and tools.

This is an LLM-free zone. In general, I am unwilling to use (fight with) any form of "GenAI" to write code for me. So, for the forseeable future, everything on this site will continue to be written by a very silly goose (wait that's me honk honk) with some parts written by other humans as well (silly hu-mon) rather than any plausible-series-of-words token-eating machine. Even my libraries are out of date, and suddenly that's a good thing!
(Although the style has changed several times and content has been added and changed, the base of this site has barely been updated since 2015. But it Ain't Broke!)
This site is also occasionally tested with older browsers, but compatibility is not guarenteed. Although, if you have an old obscure browser and something isn't working that previously did, I guess you can tell me (nelg) about it...
