16:40 <madmax> opera 9.5 out ftw
16:52 <StickyNoob> opera fan?
16:52 <kbblak> opera sucks
16:52 <kbblak> firefox!
16:52 <StickyNoob> used it for a while, was quite good
16:53 <StickyNoob> but FF has managed to take most of the decent functionality from it. However the standards compliance is nice
16:53 <StickyNoob> nice in opera that is, not FF
16:58 <madmax> 9.5 is much better than the previous release
16:58 <madmax> in terms of performance, and some new features
17:00 <madmax> the address bar can now "search" in the visited pages content

17:30 <Monkey_arma> ye i use firefox but something about it bugs me.
17:30 <Flex> http://www.engadget.com/2008/06/12/pci-express-3-0-details-surface/
17:30 <Monkey_arma> i have had some odd behaviour with the talkback plubin
17:30 <Monkey_arma> *g
17:30 <Monkey_arma> ok flex and others i need advice
17:31 <Flex> pci-e 3
17:31 <Monkey_arma> i have money but no where has the parts...well not all the parts i need
17:31 <Monkey_arma> so either i buy online
17:31 <Monkey_arma> or?
17:31 <Flex> buy pci-e 3
17:32 <Monkey_arma> but i dont need first hand parts
17:32 <Monkey_arma> i only want it for tron
17:33 <StickyNoob> have we ever done tests to establish what the limiting factor with tron is?
17:34 <Monkey_arma> i play with no details
17:34 <Monkey_arma> and im am happy with that
17:34 <Monkey_arma> i reckon a 64meg gfx card would do me
17:34 <StickyNoob> ok fine, but you want it for tron only
17:34 <Monkey_arma> with any mobo+cpu
17:34 <StickyNoob> so it would be a good idea to figure out what tron needs
17:35 <Monkey_arma> well on trunk i get a bit better fps
17:35 <Monkey_arma> im sure that setup would be plenty
17:35 <Monkey_arma> i've never bought online before becuase i dont trust it
17:35 <Flex> StickyNoob, yeah i've been wondering that too
17:35 <Flex> what exactly gives more fps
17:36 <Monkey_arma> flex..its basically better gfx card
17:36 <Monkey_arma> in many areas
17:36 <Monkey_arma> basic 3d stuff
17:36 <Monkey_arma> then if you use special effects...
17:36 <Flex> tron is quite basic i don't think it takes all the card features
17:36 <Monkey_arma> true
17:36 <Monkey_arma> although some fancy effects might a little
17:37 <Monkey_arma> but its pretty basic 3d stuff
17:37 <StickyNoob> Monkey_arma: you say its gfx card but do you have anything to back that up?
17:37 <Monkey_arma> oh come on its obvious
17:38 <Monkey_arma> its a basic 3d game man
17:38 <Flex> lol
17:38 <Monkey_arma> it uses negligible ram
17:38 <Monkey_arma> so its cpu and gfx combo
17:39 <Monkey_arma> and being 3d, gfx would be the priority
17:39 <Monkey_arma> look how simple the game is
17:39 * StickyNoob is not totaly convinced by the assumptions
17:39 <Monkey_arma> omg u r joking
17:39 <Monkey_arma> what exactly do you think it could be other than gfx and a bit cpu?
17:40 <luke-jr> network
17:40 <Monkey_arma> hahaha
17:40 <StickyNoob> well ti could be way more cpu than gfx(i dont know) so money would be better spent on cpu than badass gfx
17:41 <Monkey_arma> sticky i want decent both
17:41 <luke-jr> better spend money on a OC3
17:41 <Monkey_arma> and as for lukes network....
17:41 <Monkey_arma> omg
17:41 <luke-jr> Monkey_arma: can you believe Cox is raising the price?
17:41 -!- deja_vu [n=deja_vu@HSI-KBW-091-089-162-193.hsi2.kabel-badenwuerttemberg.de] has joined #armagetron
17:41 <Monkey_arma> cox?
17:41 <StickyNoob> could be blowing cache alot, so a cpu with shit loads of cache would be best
17:42 <Monkey_arma> sticky you are nuts
17:42 <StickyNoob> whys that nuts?
17:42 <Monkey_arma> tron is such a basic game
17:42 <Monkey_arma> any half decent cpu is enough
17:42 <Monkey_arma> with a gfx too
17:43 <StickyNoob> collision detection is not so simple to do efficiently
17:43 <Monkey_arma> and all the fancy settings that decrease fps are 100% gfx related
17:43 <StickyNoob> certainly the robotics simulator i use the collision detection is VERY cpu intensive
17:43 <Monkey_arma> sticky you can tell fps due to cpu by playing with no effects

17:43 <Monkey_arma> try playing on your computer without any effects
17:44 <StickyNoob> i do
17:44 <Monkey_arma> so do i
17:44 <StickyNoob> i never turn on effects
17:44 <Monkey_arma> you play on minimum everything?
17:44 <Monkey_arma> are you sure?
17:44 <StickyNoob> yes
17:44 <Monkey_arma> so do i
17:44 <Flex> i don't think it's cache related.. at least nothing major
17:44 <Monkey_arma> but my inbuilt intel shit dont do much 3d accel
17:44 <Flex> what seems major is the 3rd stuff
17:45 <Monkey_arma> sticky do you notice much difference from lots of effects to no effects?
17:46 <StickyNoob> well ok fine whatever provided you are commited that all the problems are the gfx cards fault then get the badass card
17:46 <Monkey_arma> im not gettin any badass card
17:46 <Monkey_arma> i want a half decent cpu and same for gfx
17:46 <StickyNoob> still for £30
17:47 <Monkey_arma> i am willing to pay 80
17:47 <StickyNoob> for the gfx alone?
17:47 <Monkey_arma> for psu, mobo, cpu&fan, gfx
17:47 <StickyNoob> oh
17:47 <Monkey_arma> i can get psu for 5 quid
17:48 <StickyNoob> psu £5, look on your face when it overheats and burns down your house...priceless
17:48 <Monkey_arma> one shop here has 2nd hand athlon64-3000 fan £13
17:48 <Monkey_arma> that is for 2nd hand psu
17:48 <Monkey_arma> 400 watts
17:49 <Monkey_arma> i just need to find parts now..its killing me
17:49 <Monkey_arma> where can i get some second hand parts?
17:49 <Monkey_arma> help meeeeee

17:51 <StickyNoob> Flex: note that his definition of new is slightly different to yours and mine
17:51 <Flex> lol
17:51 <StickyNoob> it will be a miricle if the mobo has sata
17:51 <Monkey_arma> no i meant mew like you adn flex
17:51 <Monkey_arma> i just dont need new
17:51 <StickyNoob> yes they normaly have one but in mine its controlled by jmicron and sucks ass
17:52 <StickyNoob> if i plug in a usb device in to the front ports the cd-drive looses power
17:52 <Monkey_arma> so what do you do about dvd player?

17:53 <epsy> Flex, that's a bit of a large transition but.. http://rss.slashdot.org/~r/Slashdot/slashdot/~3/309948183/article.pl :P

19:51 <ivantis> i get it

19:58 <akira_arma> http://www.yourdailymedia.com/media/1213268615/Urban_Football_(II)
19:58 <ivantis> pawesome
19:59 <Monkey_arma> i was referring to german team
19:59 <ivantis> do you need to be in a certain place in the world to get fiber optic service?
19:59 <StickyNoob> ivantis: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fiberoptic
19:59 <Monkey_arma> both really
20:00 <StickyNoob> ivantis: no fiber is very common
20:00 <StickyNoob> you probably have it in your city
20:00 <ivantis> hmm

20:02 <ivantis> http://kitusa.com
20:03 <StickyNoob> well in the uk fiber starts at about $20 a month
20:03 <Monkey_arma> wrong
20:03 <ivantis> hmm

20:04 <ivantis> i should look into that
20:04 <Monkey_arma> £4.50 a month
20:04 <StickyNoob> $50 for 20mbs
20:04 <ivantis> whats a good speed?
20:04 <StickyNoob> let me gues monkey you are on a really old tarrif that is no longer offered?
20:05 <Flex> let me guess, monkey is so old he's older then the moon
20:06 <ivantis> his social security number is 1
20:06 <G5> Monkey_arma: U r so right ... u dont even know how right u r. I do not watch football. But everybody told me the German team is so good this time, so I watch some of the game ... u saw how that ends. I do not need to play myself, I can make my team lose from remote ...
20:06 <StickyNoob> or hes on the £4.50 Virgin offer and is conviniently forgetting the £11 phone line he has to also take
20:06 <Monkey_arma> yes
20:06 <madmax> G5: germany played good on their first game
20:06 <Monkey_arma> but thats seperate
20:07 <StickyNoob> so its actualy £15.50 a month
20:07 <Monkey_arma> StickyNoob adsl you must pay for phone line too
20:07 <Monkey_arma> bollox
20:07 * StickyNoob slow claps
20:07 <G5> madmax: I wasnt watching the first game, so no wonder
20:07 <Flex> haha G5
20:07 <akira_arma> germna team sucks
20:07 <ivantis> how much is £4.50 in $s?
20:07 <akira_arma> they just arent a good team
20:07 <StickyNoob> ivantis: anyway yes fiber starts at $20 in the UK
20:07 <Monkey_arma> no
20:07 <ivantis> gud
20:08 <Monkey_arma> it starts from about $7
20:08 <akira_arma> NL and spain rock
20:08 <akira_arma> portugal also
20:08 <StickyNoob> $2= about £1
20:08 <Monkey_arma> $8 then
20:08 <Monkey_arma> its not 2 = 1
20:09 <StickyNoob> 1.94...near as damit
20:09 <madmax> *psst* google: "4.5 pounds in dollars"
20:09 <ivantis> ok, im going to eat pizza now, bbs

20:09 <StickyNoob> tell you what monkey ill refund you the 6 cents difference between $1.94 and £2
20:10 <Monkey_arma> ok
20:10 <StickyNoob> *$2
20:10 <StickyNoob> actualy rounding its 1.95
20:11 <madmax> akira_arma: yeah NL have a pretty good team... curious to see if they keep it up in their next game
20:11 <Monkey_arma> i think holland are the favourites
20:11 <akira_arma> they deserve the title imho
20:11 <Monkey_arma> for me
20:12 <akira_arma> they always play very good soccer
20:12 <akira_arma> fast
20:12 <Monkey_arma> and van der saar is the best player in the tournament
20:12 <akira_arma> wtf
20:12 <Monkey_arma> wtf?
20:17 * madmax agrees on the affirmative wtf
20:17 <madmax> and you can't even decide that with just one match
20:17 <madmax> I wonder if a goalkeeper was ever chosen as best player
20:18 <Monkey_arma> max i have watched van der saar in many matches
20:19 <Monkey_arma> including in the european championship
20:19 <madmax> you said "best player in the tournament"
20:19 <Monkey_arma> damn right
20:19 <Monkey_arma> he is the best player in the tournament
20:19 <Monkey_arma> before the first match was even played he was the best player
20:19 <P4> #ping
20:19 <Monkey_arma> today he is still the best player
20:20 <P4> Unban tronner! :þ
20:20 <Monkey_arma> he is the best player taking part in the tournament
20:20 <P4> hi Monkey_arma :)
20:20 <madmax> that's a pretty good argument
20:21 <Monkey_arma> hey P4
20:21 <akira_arma> i am pretty sure ronaldo is equal
20:21 <akira_arma> also
20:21 <Monkey_arma> no way
20:21 <Monkey_arma> hes not a team player
20:21 <Monkey_arma> i prefer deco
20:21 <akira_arma> they just play different
20:21 <madmax> lol
20:21 <akira_arma> since when has not being team player to do with the "best"
20:22 <madmax> deco was the best in portugal's last game
20:22 <akira_arma> its your perception of best
20:22 <madmax> yet, ronaldo received man of the match heh
20:22 <Monkey_arma> ...ty ty
20:22 <Monkey_arma> ronaldo is all show
20:22 <Monkey_arma> yes he is skilled
20:22 <Monkey_arma> but keeps losing the ball
20:22 <akira_arma> also wayne rooney is a good candidate
20:22 <Monkey_arma> because he wont PASS
20:22 <Monkey_arma> rooney?
20:22 <akira_arma> he is not subtle
20:22 <Monkey_arma> he is in the tournament is he/
20:22 <akira_arma> but effiecient
20:22 <Monkey_arma> er...
20:22 <akira_arma> isnt he?
20:22 <akira_arma> no clue
20:22 <akira_arma> :D
20:23 <madmax> -_-
20:23 <Monkey_arma> lol
20:23 <akira_arma> i dont follow soccer that much
20:23 <Monkey_arma> slightly worring you give me a wtf
20:23 <Monkey_arma> :)
20:23 <Monkey_arma> england didnt make it
20:23 <Monkey_arma> but yes he is their best player
20:23 <akira_arma> i give you a wtf when you say something that is based on your perception
20:23 <akira_arma> as
20:23 <akira_arma> general
20:23 <Monkey_arma> and equal to ronaldo
20:23 <akira_arma> truth
20:24 <akira_arma> also.. a team needs 11 players
20:24 <akira_arma> so if you put
20:24 <Monkey_arma> i think torres is as good as ronaldo
20:24 <akira_arma> 11 van der saar
20:24 <akira_arma> they wont make a good team
20:24 <akira_arma> ;)
20:24 <madmax> Monkey_arma: man united?
20:24 <Monkey_arma> no max
20:24 <Monkey_arma> i just think they are equal
20:24 <Monkey_arma> i prefer rooney in fact
20:24 <akira_arma> also 2020
20:24 <akira_arma> style
20:24 <akira_arma> suck
20:24 <akira_arma> s
20:24 <akira_arma> :(
20:25 <Monkey_arma> france should have kept zidane in squad
20:25 <madmax> which team do you support then?
20:25 <Monkey_arma> couldnt have been worse than that crap
20:25 <Monkey_arma> i dont like premiership because its all about money
20:26 <Monkey_arma> so i only get excited at euro or world cup
20:26 <Monkey_arma> and i dont support england
20:26 <Monkey_arma> :)
20:27 <madmax> heh
20:27 <Monkey_arma> i just like to watch good football
20:29 <madmax> well, there are very good matches in the premiership
20:30 <Monkey_arma> some
20:30 <madmax> don't see how money influences on-field skill :-P
20:30 <Monkey_arma> but the premiership is ruined
20:31 <Monkey_arma> ok well for a start in england you must have satellite tv to watch premiership
20:31 <Monkey_arma> thats a pretty damn good reason
20:31 <Monkey_arma> sky OWN the bloody premiership
20:32 <madmax> in portugal there's only one match per weekend on TV. rest is on paid channels
20:32 <madmax> it sucks
20:33 <Monkey_arma> exactly
20:33 <madmax> at least they show champions league/national cup games
20:34 <Monkey_arma> yes we only get euro, world cup and championship /cup games
20:35 <Flex> who cares about the rest
20:35 <Flex> they suck
20:35 <Monkey_arma> exactly

20:37 <madmax> what do you have at home? analogue tv?
20:37 <Monkey_arma> yes
20:37 <Monkey_arma> but digital is the same
20:46 <Flex> haha
20:46 <Flex> shut up!
20:48 <Monkey_arma> oh sorry flex yes we get super channels like bbc3 and kiddies tv and shopping channel....all wonderful digital channels
20:49 <Monkey_arma> (not)
20:49 <Flex> E4, ITV sub channels, BBC sub channels, random decent channels like "Dave" not to forget Film4
20:49 <Flex> intractive for stuff like Snooker
20:52 <Flex> http://www.freeview.co.uk/channels/?__SITE=public&p[0]=channels
20:53 <Flex> it's like if you've got only the normal channels, doesn't mean they're any better then the ones you're being sarcastic about
20:53 <Flex> they suck just as much
20:54 <Monkey_arma> i didnt say they were better
20:54 <Monkey_arma> i am saying that digital is no better than analogue
20:54 <Flex> yes it is
20:54 <Monkey_arma> ye right
20:55 <Monkey_arma> hardly
20:55 <Flex> better channels, more channels and much more clearer
20:55 <Monkey_arma> hah
20:55 <Monkey_arma> no
20:55 <Flex> any idiot can tell the quality difference
20:55 <Monkey_arma> ye right
20:55 <Monkey_arma> ive watched digital
20:55 <Flex> it's obvious
20:55 <Monkey_arma> dont think that digital makes it better quality
20:55 <Flex> also with digital you get tv guides
20:55 <madmax> well I know here digital is much better than analogue heh.
20:55 <Monkey_arma> it just means you can have more chans over the range
20:55 <Monkey_arma> its not here
20:56 <Monkey_arma> the picture is the same
20:56 <Flex> trust me it's better here too, monkey is just 20-50 years behind the times
20:56 <madmax> I'm not talking about image quality
20:56 <Monkey_arma> unless you live somewhere remote
20:56 <madmax> on analogue we have 4 channels only, digital are much more, and better
20:56 <Monkey_arma> ok well as far as programs go digital has more channels all of them shit
20:56 <Monkey_arma> in UK at least
20:56 <Flex> dude all of them is as shit as the ones you've got on analog
20:56 <Lucifer_arma> that's true in the US too
20:57 <Flex> sume even better to watch
20:57 <Lucifer_arma> that's why we tossed our TV out on the curb
20:57 <Monkey_arma> heh
20:57 <StickyNoob> lies QVC FTW
20:57 <Monkey_arma> sticky lol.
20:57 <Lucifer_arma> if we actually got taxed for our TV, we'd never have had one in the first place ;)
20:57 <StickyNoob> dosent america tax tv?
20:58 <Flex> they live off commercials
20:58 <StickyNoob> well i suppose you dont have any state funded channels
20:59 <Lucifer_arma> we do, but the networks are trying to get rid of them
21:00 <Lucifer_arma> they're funded by grants and donations, and appear to just run Sesame Street, miscellaneous kid programming, and imported UK shows
21:00 <StickyNoob> pbs?
21:00 <StickyNoob> thats not state funded tho is it?
21:01 <Lucifer_arma> it is, actually
21:01 <StickyNoob> oh
21:01 <StickyNoob> hmm
21:01 <Lucifer_arma> government funds don't cover even half of their expenses, though
21:02 <StickyNoob> sweet you get uk shows
21:02 <Lucifer_arma> no, other people, people that own TVs, get UK shows ;)
21:02 <StickyNoob> heh
21:06 <akira_arma> hey lucifer

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...
