00:04:26 <Gregor> AnMaster: Yes, www.www.extra-www.org is my site
00:04:40 <ehird> Oh yeah, I didn't finish logreading
00:09:12 <ehird> 09:14:36 <AnMaster> oerjan, I know you are just joking
00:09:12 <ehird> 09:14:41 <AnMaster> and want to get it fixed too
00:09:12 <ehird> reading this is like nails down a blackboard
00:09:20 <ehird> and i have an urge to make them scratch your eyeballs out instead
00:09:42 <ehird> 09:17:07 * AnMaster makes a mental note to always use as much unicode notation when talking to oerjan as possible

00:10:50 <ehird> 09:22:31 <AnMaster> isn't it some windows only font?
00:10:50 <ehird> 09:22:53 <AnMaster> which raises the question: why the hell windows?
00:10:50 <ehird> gahh can't someone in here passively use windows without you ragging on them?
00:12:41 <ehird> 09:39:50 <AnMaster> <Deewiant> As I stare at it it shifts between symmetric and asymmetric. <-- hit that auto button on your TFT front panel RIGHT NOW!
00:12:41 <ehird> lol, using analog cables to digital devices, lol
00:14:03 <Deewiant> ?
00:14:18 <ehird> 10:05:16 <ais523> A y = B y doesn't necessarily imply A = B
00:14:19 <ehird> 10:05:20 <ais523> it does if it's true for all y, though
00:14:19 <ehird> false
00:14:27 <ehird> Deewiant: The "auto button" means "readjust for retarded VGA cable, lol"
00:14:34 <ehird> You click it, and the screen blurs in entirely different ways!
00:14:42 <Deewiant> Oh, okay.
00:14:46 <Deewiant> I always wondered what it was for.
00:15:08 <ehird> Believe me, a VGA cable makes TFTs reaaaaaaally crappy.

00:31:41 <ehird> 11:43:59 <AnMaster> how very relevant fungot's comment was
00:31:42 <ehird> was any of that meant to make sense
00:31:42 <fungot> ehird: set to latin-1 for another app, looks better with -o2 though.
00:31:49 <ehird> fungot just said some random shit, like usual
00:31:49 <fungot> ehird: and it exposes it doesn't matter? if so, that is
00:32:43 <ehird> 12:46:14 <AnMaster> Is 3↑↑↑↑3 too large to write out in this universe? (that is g₁ btw)
00:32:44 <ehird> um, yes
00:33:11 <ehird> G_1 is unfathomable multiples larger than 10^(10^100), i.e. a googolplex, which is too big
00:33:24 <ehird> the number of the atoms in the universe is 2**80 or something, or was it 10**80
00:33:29 <ehird> ** = ^
00:36:48 <Deewiant> 10**80 observable
00:36:59 <Deewiant> (estimated)
00:37:28 <Deewiant> And minimum, IIRC.
00:38:02 <ehird> whatever, clearly the number is below a googolplex unless the universe is way different than we thought

16:13:01 <oerjan> oh wait IE actually _does_ show a euro when setting Western European ISO (and also Windows)
16:13:09 <oerjan> must not be actual latin-1 then
16:18:32 <fizzie> Latin-9, also called ISO-8859-15.
16:18:41 <fizzie> That's what every non-multibyte-eer's using nowadays.
16:19:05 <fizzie> There's just 8 characters changed from Latin-1: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Iso-8859-15
16:27:44 <Deewiant> Silly them, don't they know that ISO-8859-15 is considered harmful? http://hsivonen.iki.fi/iso-8859-15/ Maybe they don't understand because the text is in Finnish
16:29:30 <ais523> what's the complaints there about?
16:29:34 <ais523> I don't understand Finnish either
16:32:36 <fizzie> Seems to be mostly about the general pointlessness of fiddling around with eight-bit encodings when you could be using UTF-8 and the full Unicode set instead. Also few cripes for latin-9 especially: not codepoint-wise forward-compatible with Unicode (like latin-1 is), and only fixes things the "language people" (as opposed to typographists) dislike.
16:38:45 -!- ehird has quit (Read error: 145 (Connection timed out)).
16:43:15 <Deewiant> fizzie: Typographers.
16:43:34 <fizzie> Though, why would not understanding a language be a problem any more? It's 2009! Just apply some machine translation.
16:43:43 <fizzie> "In 1999 there were already 8-bit encoding, which is both a language that people typograafikoiden pet signs: Windows-1252. The reasons for the avoidance of the encoding are not practical but principled (Spex comes from Microsoft) and theoretical (a muinaispääte may leave the most significant bit ignored and treated as an indication of control characters are printed).
16:43:43 <fizzie> ISO-8859-1 is printed on the signs of tavuittain forward compatible with Windows-1252's with. ISO-8859-1 is koodinumeroittain forward compatible with Unicode. ISO-8859-15 does not have to be compatible.
16:43:43 <fizzie> In 1999, there was also its tavuesitys Unicode and UTF-8. In fact, the ISO-8859-15 ratio is defined Unicode! "
16:44:15 <Deewiant> In fact, the ISO-8859-15 ratio is defined Unicode!
16:44:23 <fizzie> Indeed!
16:44:54 <Deewiant> speksi -> Spex, o_O
16:45:23 <fizzie> That's statistics (as opposed to linguistics) for you.
16:45:53 <fizzie> Admittedly I'm not quite sure what sort of statistics yield that particular translation.

19:58:15 <Slereah_> I will solve your halting problems
19:58:18 <Slereah_> Are you halting?
19:58:21 <Slereah_> I will solve you
19:59:43 <fax> thank you
20:00:17 <fax> hey does anyone tabulate termination of programs?
20:00:25 <fax> for example + terminates, . terminates, ....
20:00:29 <fax> you might get a nice fractal?
20:01:05 <Slereah_> wat
20:01:13 <Slereah_> Oh.
20:01:29 <Slereah_> Well, the termination of a program is defined by the Turing set.
20:01:38 <Slereah_> It's an incompressible number
20:01:38 <fax> I never heard of Turing set.
20:01:45 <Slereah_> So it has no pattern.
20:01:58 <fax> oh oh really
20:02:04 <fax> but the complement has pattenr
20:02:07 <fax> pattern*
20:02:15 <Slereah_> Complement?
20:02:28 <fax> actually maybe I lid
20:02:33 <fax> I was going to say: for example X is a terminating program so is XX
20:02:37 <fax> but that's not true!
20:02:51 <Slereah_> Turing set, or equivalently the Turing number, of a machine is, for the nth element, 0 if the program defined by the Gödel number n halts, 1 otherwise
20:03:51 <fax> in the future we will use bits of turing set as currency
20:04:57 <Slereah_> IIRC, as an incompressible number, it has every pattern possible in it
20:05:14 <Slereah_> As the bits are random

21:18:47 <fax> there should be a challenge to write short programs that produce most bits of turing set
21:45:05 <Slereah_> pikhq : Incompressible numbers are uncomputable :3
21:45:13 <Slereah_> That's why they're incompressible
21:45:44 <pikhq> Slereah_: Well... Yes...
21:48:53 * AnMaster stabs random apps that keeps thinking you want letter instead of A4.
21:49:23 <AnMaster> System wide settings: A4. But yet some apps 1) ignore it 2) refuse to remember your change to A4
21:49:36 <AnMaster> thunderbird is one example
21:50:38 <AnMaster> yes CUPS is set to A4 in all places
21:53:32 <Slereah_> fax : Writing bits of the Turing set is machine dependant
