Just that the wiki would hardly thrive if we had no vanity.) 02:15:36 Probably upwards of 80% of new pages are authors creating pages for their own languages. 02:15:51 Of course, if you want someone else to write a page that's fine too.

06:12:09 does it have to be composed only of one instance of a pattern? 06:13:23 well it is a specific small configuration that takes many turns to stabilise 06:13:29 "small" is of course subjective, as is "many" 06:13:37 yeah.... 06:13:42 "More specifically, Martin Gardner defines them as patterns of fewer than ten live cells which take longer than 50 generations to stabilize" 06:13:50 hmm... 06:14:08 I've been goofing around with a pattern of 12 cells that takes 1145 generations to stabilize 06:14:20 http://www.conwaylife.com/wiki/Fred what a good pattern 06:14:25 I can't be the first person to discover it 06:14:29 but I can't find it anywhere 06:14:41 http://www.conwaylife.com/forums/viewtopic.php?p=4610#p4610 nice 06:14:54 Dovregubben: take a look at http://www.conwaylife.com/wiki/List_of_long-lived_methuselahs or such, perhaps?

21:41:05 now* 21:41:06 typo 21:41:24 This is futile, that basically only makes sense to people who know something of Scottish slang. 21:41:33 Phantom__Hoover, XD 21:42:33 Phantom__Hoover, or who read any Discworld book with the Nac Mac Feegle in it. 21:42:43 I am still waiting my vlc for mac os 9 21:42:44 Maybe 21:42:51 *for my 21:42:54 nortti, are you seriously using OS9. 21:43:05 not OS9, mac os 9 21:43:20 I want a vlc version for System 7 21:43:24 and yes. but my ppc mac broke 21:43:44 vlc for system 6 and macminix 1.5 21:44:01 oh and the beta is currently only for ARMv7 CPUs with Neon (works for me!), though more variants are apparently coming soon 21:44:30 by the way does vlc work with minix 2? 21:44:46 ha ha 21:44:52 ? 21:45:29 Phantom__Hoover, I have an OS 9 laptop somewhere, not really using it unless I get nostalgic 21:45:39 -!- boily has quit (Quit: WeeChat 0.3.8). 21:45:45 for the old Spiderweb Software and Ambrosia games. 21:45:51 I thought he meant he had it on his dumpster machine. 21:45:56 Vorpal: have you heard of Classilla 21:45:58 oh right 21:46:11 Phantom__Hoover: my dumpster machine has x86 cpu 21:46:24 nortti, hey you could emulate OS 9 21:46:27 this laptop can do it 21:46:32 though it is very buggy 21:46:36 google sheepshaver 21:46:51 but not very fast and it would require me using X 21:47:33 it is buggy, doesn't work for all programs, requires mmap_min_addr=0 to run, and is rather messy to compile. Oh and getting hold of the source of it was hard too 21:47:38 since the project is basically dead 21:47:52 it works for emulating Avernum 1 and Avernum 2 though (sadly not Avernum 3 and later) 21:48:30 Mac OS 9 with irc client with name I cannot remember right now, Classilla, iCab 3.0.5 and Python 2.3 is actually pretty decent 21:48:43 emulating System 7 on 68k hardware is much more stable 21:48:50 basiliskII can do that 21:49:27 I can believe. I have emulated system 6 on mac classic before and it was pretty stable 21:49:43 anyway a core 2 Duo at 2.26 G is more than enough to emulate classic mac os. (System 7 boots in less than a second, OS 9 takes a few seconds, but most seem to be spent waiting for some network IO thingy or such) 21:50:06 yeah. I have 700MHz pentium III.... 21:50:22 nortti, no I meant emulating system 7 on 68k hardware, with the emulator running on x86 21:50:28 -!- edwardk has joined. 21:50:38 I haven't emulated system 7 on 68k, that would be silly 21:51:05 erm. I meant running sys6 on emulated mac classic on ppc mac 21:51:16 nortti, anyway BasiliskII (which is also a PITA to compile) might work on your CPU 21:51:39 no idea if sheepshaver will work 21:51:41 worth a try 21:52:14 Vorpal: did you know that you can actually use mini vmac on m68k macs and with it emulate sys7 m68k machine on sys7 m68k machine= 21:52:18 but setting it up is a an absolute PITA (and of course requires finding an OS 9 install cd image somewhere, wasn't terribly hard, there was a site that specialised in classic mac os abandonware) 21:52:21 (forgot the name of it) 21:52:42 macintosh garden? 21:52:46 ah yes 21:52:47 thats it 21:52:52 nortti, hm? I thought mini vmac only did up to system 6? 21:52:54 oh well 21:53:02 anyway the software I'm interested in is PPC 21:53:06 so sheepshaver it is for me 21:53:20 I have ran sys 7.0 under mini vMac 21:53:35 don't know about anything newer 21:53:40 I only wish I could get Escape Velocity or Escape Velocity Override working under emulation 21:53:44 those games were awesome 21:54:13 and of course, the avernum series is stellar 21:55:47 umh. basilishII fails x11 check 21:56:07 I do actually currently have x11 installed' 21:56:49 nortti, maybe not the development headers? 21:56:50 or such 21:56:59 x11 have a lot of different packages for that 21:57:10 if you mean configure failed? 21:57:14 config.log should help 21:57:15 yes 21:58:04 nortti, hm my ~/src/mac contains a debug build of libsdl. Yeah, it can be annoying to get working... XD 21:58:17 ... 21:58:33 nortti, that was for sheepshaver though 21:58:41 oh looks like I checked SheepShaver out from CVS? 21:59:13 nortti, if you are interested in SheepSaver this might be useful: :pserver:anoncvs@cvs.cebix.net:/home/cvs/cebix 21:59:22 repo is "SheepShaver" 21:59:27 when my iBook g4 still worked I had pretty much built complete netbsd system under ~/src 21:59:54 nortti, g4? That thing was way more powerful than your current computer 22:00:05 yes. is broke 22:00:08 I have a first model ibook g3 22:00:14 dead battery 22:00:22 the colored ones 22:00:22 oh and the power connector is glitchy 22:00:27 yes, blue 22:00:38 so you better sit very still when using that computer 22:00:39 how much RAM? what OS? 22:01:15 ok. let me quess. it has Mac OS 9? 22:01:17 nortti, OS 9 (came with OS 8.6 iirc, but my dad got an imac SE at the same time, that came with an OS 9 disc, so I used that to upgrade) 22:01:41 as for RAM, 32 MB built in, 32 MB added 22:01:47 so a whopping total of 64 MB! 22:02:07 same amount of ram as I now have 22:02:21 300 MHz 22:02:25 3.2 GB disk space 22:02:43 nortti, which desktop environment do you use? 22:02:45 LXDE? 22:02:55 or just a simple window manager? 22:02:58 like twm 22:03:05 I don't use x11. I use links2 -g amd mplayer fbdev 22:03:13 *and 22:04:12 nortti, you need x11 for basiliskII though 22:04:15 and sheepshaver 22:04:22 anyway sheepshaver is going to strain your RAM 22:04:24 yes. I have it installed 22:04:26 your CPU is probably fine 22:05:06 I sometimes have to use x11 (hv3, netsurf, pygame) and then I either use wwm or mwm 22:05:31 pygame? 22:05:34 isn't that a library 22:05:47 i've got pygame. 22:06:10 yes. pygame uses sdl and requires x11 22:06:12 the trick is to get the right version.. python 2.6.6 is recommended 22:06:26 by someone O.o 22:06:32 I have python 2.5.1 22:06:38 i don't know :D 22:06:49 i think the most important thing is don't get 3.x 22:07:07 the trick is to get the right version.. python 2.6.6 is recommended <-- uh? 22:07:20 anyway python 2.7 should be fine then 22:07:24 well.. 22:07:26 i dunno 22:07:29 3.x is very different from 2.x 22:07:40 you need to port all but trivial programs 22:07:56 usually not too hard to port 22:08:03 i am under the impression that 2.7 might be too far 22:08:13 but i am new to the python world 22:08:13 unless you are using the C API 22:08:26 and at least on windows pygame is not thread safe. when I programmed for it I made my own game engine with corountine scheduler as pygame froze wen I tried to use threads :P 22:08:29 that can be a lot of work to port (I have first hand experience of that) 22:09:13 isn't there a small program for autonmaticaly converting python 2 to python 3? 22:09:29 nortti, is python ever thread safe? 22:09:39 it uses a fucking global lock for the entire interpreter 22:09:54 theres a lot of fun little games made for python 2.x 22:09:58 all you can do is make some pure-C routines drop that lock while doing IO tasks and such 22:10:12 so python is in effect single threaded 22:10:17 single core 22:10:46 has anybody ever got grail (pure python web browser) to work? 22:11:00 pure python web browser? Insane 22:11:08 CPython is slow 22:11:30 I know. and it is from the python 2.0 era 22:11:35 python itself isn't slow. PyPy is like several times faster than CPython 22:11:42 however, PyPy is still slow 22:11:43 might as well use mod_rewrite to render the page into a data: png image 22:11:50 compared to something like cython 22:12:30 olsner, to be fair, mod_rewrite is extremely suited to string rewriting, I'm not sure it would perform as good at a task like this 22:13:20 you're "not sure"? :D 22:13:33 olsner, actually I'm sure it wouldn't 22:13:43 but I don't have hard evidence to back up that statement 22:13:51 (I haven't tested after all) 22:15:19 olsner, anyway you can see an order of magnitude speed up using cython instead of cpython 22:15:25 at least for some use cases 22:15:47 oh, I thought cython was a misspelling of cpython 22:15:54 no 22:17:00 olsner, we had a lab at university to implement a reversi AI, the course used python. I implemented a pure python version, it managed to get to 5 ply (using alpha-beta pruning). Then I made a cython version and easily got to 8 ply on the same machine. (There were some limits on how long it was allowed to think about a move, iirc 15 seconds) 22:17:29 a pure C version would probably have performed slightly better than that even (since some python API calls remained) 22:17:38 what's a ply 22:17:42 Phantom__Hoover, a half-move 22:17:50 it is a term used in reversi AIs 22:18:15 Phantom__Hoover, so 2 ply means the AI is looking ahead by one move by itself, and one move by the opponent 22:18:39 I have no idea who invented the word ply for that 22:20:58 anyways the calls that remained were fairly expensive, some accesses of a python dict iirc. A 2D C array would have been sufficient and worked well, but that would have meant rewriting the teacher-provided GUI code 22:22:04 (also it would have involved manual memory management) 23:31:55 -!- nortti_ has joined. 23:43:26 unix v7 is not very well suitable for daily use 23:46:16 i interpret that as meaning it's best for non-interactive apps like servers 23:47:12 well maybe. it is pretty light 23:47:18 -!- kallisti has joined. 23:47:36 `ls 23:47:39 bin \ canary \ foo \ karma \ lib \ paste \ quotes \ share \ wisdom 23:49:08 OH GOD THE SILENCE 23:49:11 MAKE IT STOP. 23:49:31 hi 23:49:39 hi 23:49:51 SHHHH 23:49:56 WE'RE BEING SILENT HERE 23:50:01 NO FUCK IT 23:50:06 I AM GOING TO MAKE THE WORDS 23:50:11 `? kallisti 23:50:14 kallisti is a former prophet swearing off his pastry deity 23:50:23 accurate. 23:50:57 `words 20 # hello does this still work? 23:51:03 ferrito sciallcifor afl gee nov sorthalfp bearlin euesdi expoemlo preconf koele unglebo tobalmi pion pen quolicalloq guidi maufi johan fliously 23:51:05 yesssss 23:51:17 my #esoteric legacy. 23:51:39 quite 23:54:17 `run file `which words` 23:54:21 ​/hackenv/bin/words: a /usr/bin/perl script text executable 23:54:58 `run cat `which words` | paste 23:55:01 http://codu.org/projects/hackbot/fshg/index.cgi/raw-file/tip/paste/paste.27827 23:55:14 `cat paste 23:55:17 cat: paste: Is a directory 23:55:17 `cat `which paste` 23:55:20 cat: `which paste`: No such file or directory 23:55:28 oh right 23:55:31 `run cat `which paste` 23:55:34 ​#!/bin/bash \ if [ !
