BF -> my derivative separated by semicolons. + -> ++; - -> --; , -> ,,; . -> ..; < -> <<; > -> >>; [ -> [[; ] -> ]] 01:35:08 That's not just 8 symbols added to a table. 01:35:21 ...I may have equated symbols with characters. 01:35:51 also you forgot a semicolon on ]]. 01:36:50 I did not intend to translate BF symbols into things containing semicolons, they're just separators in my description. Doesn't really matter though. 01:37:10 8=D, 8==D, 8===D, 8====D, 8=====D, 8======D, 8=======D, 8========D 01:37:33 that would be better than a few of the derivatives currently posted 01:37:51 how about one that used various numbers of swastikas 01:38:01 would that be the worst one 01:39:31 maybe 01:39:47 idea: fungoid with swastika-based control flow 01:40:29 fungoid on a continous plane, and the only control mechanisms are variously resized and spun swastikas 01:40:31 Phantom__Hoover: how can it be? 01:40:48 what bike said i guess 01:41:54 could call it, i dunno, Meatspin 01:42:41 recently my friend came up with an idea of a language with only the high level operations (like image resizing) and no low level operations (like addition) 01:43:16 what's high level and what's low level 01:43:19 i'm not sure i'd distinguish those as high/low level but right 01:43:43 primitive is probably a better word 01:44:02 Phantom__Hoover: hmm, if you prefer you can say domain-specific and general operations, but anyway. 01:44:03 what if you were running this on a specialized Photoshop-oriented processor, huh 01:44:10 something like that 01:44:10 language in which addition is implemented in terms of image resizing 01:45:04 or, we somehow have 2D FFT and convolution but no pairwise multiplication. XD 01:45:23 that *is* an easy example however 01:46:28 the only arithmetic operation is like the ackermann function 01:46:58 the only arithmetic operation is the hyper operator? that doesn't seem too difficult to work with, really 01:47:21 i'm tired and i don't know that many functions :( 01:47:49 also if you had fft maybe you could do multiplication with schonhage or something, might be fun 01:48:11 how about control flow 01:48:46 flow control > control flow 01:49:03 how about flow control 01:49:08 "now we're better" 01:49:35 monqy, elliott time for me to do the thing 01:49:43 monqy: which one is if statements and which one is ^S 01:49:45 help 01:49:53 Sgeo, what thing 01:50:02 the thing 01:55:51 Phantom__Hoover: I'm pretty sure if you do your big table we'll all support you 01:56:09 idk 01:56:28 elliott's been no fun since he got in charge of the wiki 01:57:05 we'll make a distraction so that he does not notice your addition! 01:57:13 hello 01:57:15 hey that should be an operation 01:57:24 "distraction" 01:57:29 no idea what it would do 01:57:42 disrupt numbers or something 01:57:52 move the pc to a random position for a few instructions 02:05:31 -!- copumpkin has joined. 02:05:45 might be useful in corewars/bf joust/whatever 02:09:16 -!- zzo38 has joined. 02:17:06 i had lots of dreams that i havent been sharing so i will share them now it'll be great 02:17:17 reverse chronological order 02:17:25 OK, if that you want 02:18:30 In the last dream, I had a friend whose boyfriend is really dumb at driving. we were riding with him driving and he tries to take a shortcut through the hayride racetrack but there's a dog show going on so it's filled up with dogs and it goes really slowly since we have to carefully avoid the dogs 02:18:39 and then there are people and they're sorta crowding so we have to wait for them to pass by 02:19:31 one of the people starts quoting a web series that exists in this dream called "super mario hat" that makes fun of people who make fun of people who like video games, but nobody gets it and they think he's insulting us, but they agree with the insults and gather around and form an agreement party 02:20:19 i'm snickering because even though "super mario hat" is not all that great it is amusing that everyone thinks he's serious while he's being so ridiculous and they also agree with him. he has to explain and the party disperses 02:21:14 in another dream there are two parts 02:21:35 monqy: super mario hat sounds amazing 02:21:40 imo: it should exist? 02:21:45 yes 02:22:09 first part is there's an artificial pool but it's really big and there's a boat in it and i'm on the boat. I forget what goes on in the boat until an evil guy who's of high ranking status or something starts shoveling coal into the ventilation system and the boat goes topsy and rocks wildly a bunch before tipping over 02:22:29 whenever it rocked I went to the opposite sides and found a window so I could jump if it tipped so I did that and escaped 02:22:49 a bunch of other people escaped too idk if anyone died in there but a bunch of people's eyes got all messed up by air pressure or something 02:23:16 I think someone was surprised I took a window out idk how other people got out it's a mystery. someone got hit by something heavy on the way out but survived with messed up eyes 02:23:35 noting the high rate of eye injuries 02:23:45 anyway second part is I was in some sort of sequence of challenges and this one was titled something like "kill the mammot, making use of blinding it" 02:24:27 there were really big boxes (too high to climb) and huge rolls of tape on them, and you were given a pickaxe and you could let the mammoth out whenever you felt like it 02:24:41 was it kill the mammot or kill the mammoth 02:24:47 mammoth 02:24:52 also was the mammoth real. this sounds cruel!! 02:25:07 I felt sorta bad about oh jeez how will I feel kimming a mammoth can I go through with it &c &c but I didn't stop doing the challenge 02:25:21 monqy are you sure you don't have some sort of latent eye fetish 02:25:30 :( 02:26:04 my approach was knock down one of the huge rolls of tape, deflate it a bit so I could climb on it, use that to climb on the boxes, get above the mammoth chamber, release it, and now I have the height advantage and can jump on it and pick out its eyes 02:26:06 monqy............ its not right to kill a mammoth 02:26:09 i think you have poor morals!! 02:26:15 or dream monqy at least 02:26:22 I also throught of taping over its eyes but I'd be picking it to death anyway and picking out its eyes would probably be easier 02:26:26 hahaha i like how eyes came up 02:26:29 right after Phantom__Hoover brought them up 02:26:38 well I guess it is implicit in blinding it but still 02:27:23 I did some box leaping and tape stuff and got over to where the mammoth would be but then there was a fancy futuristic projector and someone came in the room and was like whats going on and dont touch that projector 02:27:36 so I gently moved the projector out of the way down to the dude and I forget the rest of what happened 02:28:04 and when writing down that dream when i wrote it down I remembered another dream I had with a sequence of challenges where my team had to kill a herd of elephants. did i ever describe that one 02:28:21 nop 02:28:22 that's basically all i remember at this point anyway. 02:28:22 e 02:28:31 do your dreams have lots of challenges 02:28:33 i ghuess there were hills or something in that dream 02:28:43 the dreams before this don't have so many challenges 02:28:55 oh right I should probably describe the dream I had last night before I forget it 02:29:50 It was a branching story of sorts wherein the main protagonist wore a suit of chocolate armour and the main antagonists were a talking dragon named "xtahua" and his absentminded professor friend 02:30:32 i wish i remembered dreams 02:31:17 the only branch I really remember was one in which the main protagonist, the professor, and xtahua, teamed up to manage a hotel 02:31:23 but it was like spooky or something 02:31:28 monqy: did xtahua talk like xtahua 02:31:32 yes 02:31:34 good 02:31:41 I occasionally remember dreams 02:32:30 another dream I had: I was playing a mario game but the overworld was platforming just like the levels and I beat all the normal levels but I also found a secret building 02:32:51 with secret doors for each world, with key puzzles above them, but you could enter regardless of what you put for the key puzzle and this weirded me out 02:33:23 http://www.dreamviews.com/f107/sgeos-dream-journal-53892/ http://www.dreamviews.com/blogs/sgeo/ 02:33:38 so I went into the door for world 1 and beat the level but then these really creepy drawn versions of all the mario characters spoke to mea nd told me I didn't have anough points, and repeated "you can't touch us to save us" and "you can't touch me to save me" a bunch of times, and then they vanished 02:34:18 I left the secret building and came back and the whole thing was different. the doors were scattered in hard to reach places but I got to I forget if it was the world 2 or 3 door but I played it and the same sorta thing happened but with different creepy mario characters 02:34:25 Did you touch them to save them? 02:34:36 no 02:34:37 I couldn't 02:35:23 monqy: is this why they removed secret doors 02:35:40 perhaps 02:36:45 another dream: I was time travelling or something in the bleak near-future where a bunch of people I know are dying and I forget exactly I was doing the time nonsense but yeah that's a dream 02:37:07 another dream: Idk if I was myself or someone else but I was at a party with my family and it was being hosted by this other family that was all mysterious or something 02:37:12 and my grreatest fear was vacuum cleaners??? 02:37:14 -!- Phantom__Hoover has quit (Ping timeout: 240 seconds). 02:37:45 It started raining and everyone left but for some reason I stayed around??? Then the family came out and they referred to the rain as "fear" and my arms became vacuum cleaners and I became their slave 02:37:59 I went into their house and it was all dark and wherever I went anyone I found ran away from me 02:38:17 and there was a room with religious paraphernalia but whenever you looked away and looked at it again it was from a different religion 02:38:20 and sometimes it was wartime stuff 02:39:15 another dream: what I remember of it centers around going to a restaurant to meet some family-friends we rarely meet 02:39:43 for some reason we all brought camping gear with us but without bags to hold it, so I thought I'd be clever and put everything in my clothes holder so I only had to carry around one thing. more on this later 02:40:10 we got to our table which was really long and the othe family was at the far end, so we got seated, started drawing on our placemats (???), and swapped seats rotating around the table to greet them (???) 02:40:24 but then we ended up in the wrong seats so we had to sort out whose placemats were whose by how we drew on them 02:40:38 the menu wasn't a menu so much as a bunch of recipes for what they served but it was all really weird 02:41:14 and my grreatest fear was vacuum cleaners??? 02:41:16 me . 2. 02:41:31 like they documented their secret sauce and it was something like "sour sauce" (??? i knew what this was in my dream so maybe I just don't remember the name), eggs that "missed their prime", ham that "missed its prime", and some other stuff 02:41:42 and the picture had this stuff poured all over apples 02:41:51 when the food was all over to leave the restaurant there werent any normal exits 02:41:57 we had to go through a futuristic hanging simulator 02:41:59 ok the concept of food that "missed its prime" in a recipe is 02:42:02 the funneist fucking thing 02:42:15 you put your head in and it simulated death by hanging but it's not supposed to actually kill you just simulate it 02:42:28 my head didnt fit so well and then it started crushing my head and it wasnt fun getting unstuck 02:42:56 anyway i looked back at my bag of stuff and it's all burnt because one of the things i put in it was my coal lantern with real fire that somehow existed and din't have any sort of safety preventing the heat from killing everything in my bag 02:43:02 did it hang you 02:43:13 no it just crushed my head a bunch and I escaped 02:43:16 imo this dream would make a good horror film 02:43:17 elliott, monqy, have you ever read DCs Say The Darndest Things? 02:43:21 anyway thats all i remember from this dream 02:43:23 whats that 02:43:24 http://www.dreamviews.com/f28/dcs-say-darndest-things-19509/ 02:43:29 Thread on DreamViews 02:43:37 About bizarre things dream characters say. 02:43:40 oh 02:43:47 i have my own dreams for that sort of stuff 02:43:59 lessee wheres the next dream 02:44:03 really wish i had monqy's dreams 02:44:06 mine have all been lame recently 02:44:16 i have like 02:44:18 so many dreams backlogged 02:44:22 like the most recent even vaguely amusing thing was that time in a dream i was learning to play the electric guitar but 02:44:25 instead of the strings going vertically 02:44:27 they went horizontally 02:44:34 wow monqy 02:44:36 and they were super bendy vertically so you like 02:44:46 put your finger underneath one string, came out from underneath another one 02:44:48 wtf is with these ads 02:44:51 then pulled it up to the one you started with 02:44:52 and leave go 02:44:55 and that's how you twanged it 02:44:59 and that's how you played the guitar 02:45:08 maybe it wasn't electric come to think of it but yeah 02:45:12 "not very exciting" 02:46:02 ok i think i found it 02:46:33 I was in space with some friends fighting a space monster and one of them was like "alright we have to beat this guy and this is all the help we're going to get" 02:46:34 Someone told me they had a dream where the doctor asked him if he has ever been to the moon, once answered no, asked him to prove it. 02:46:44 I remember that dream. 02:46:52 but a bunch of other people showed up 02:46:59 and he was like "alright this is all the help we're going to get" 02:47:12 and then a cloud of space bees came in and stung the space monster and he said that thing again 02:47:19 and I was thinking to myself "no it isn't" 02:47:30 then a dinosaur on earth breathed a huge fireball that flew up into space and hit the space monster 02:47:33 and I thought to myself 02:47:38 "I knew the dinosaurs would help" 02:47:46 amazing 02:47:52 another dream: 02:48:14 I went to sleep for 2 weeks for some reason and when I woke up I had to go to some ceremony I forget what it was about and I guess some people thought I was dead I don't remember much of that 02:48:29 but then I got home and there was a really angry kid and he was driving in a flying car that made tornados and storms 02:48:56 my family had to flee so we jumped into the lakepond and we could breathe underwater and we swam to a secret underwater thing and my mother was like "ok we're going to stay here until this kid goes away" 02:49:11 she presented the food we had for our stay and it was little tiny broken stale doughnut pieces 02:49:32 but then there was another secret tunnel connecting to that that took us to grandmothers house so we thought we'd be safe there since the kid was after us 02:49:50 but then the kid came therea nd it turns out the kid was after my grandmother and i figured this out but my family didnt listen and refused to flee 02:49:55 so i fled but the kid was there 02:49:59 and something in the house explode 02:50:00 d 02:50:21 i watched as my family burned to death. i was able to save 2 of my sisters but they had really severe burns and their skin was all bubbly and stuff 02:50:24 the end 02:50:33 (i tried to save more but they died first) 02:50:40 inspiring dream 02:50:55 has your family ever burned to death irl 02:51:02 no 02:51:29 ok 02:51:31 that's good 02:51:34 another dream: the part I remembered: I was sleeping on a beach or something and people kept launching rockets near me that landed on the ground and then exploded 02:51:39 it was a birthday surprise or something 02:51:41 also how many sisters do you have........ 02:52:01 that's a good surprise 02:52:03 I had a birthday like every 2 days and each birthday i get more prepared for the shenanegans everyone threw at me 02:52:34 i didn't like the explosions but i dodged them in a really stupid way. i just hopped around hunched over and spun around with my face facing the ground and even in my dream I thought to myself "this is really stupid" 02:52:46 oh i have 3 sisters and 2 parents 02:52:58 wow what a coincidence..... i have 2 parents too 02:54:09 more dream: I had to pee really badly so I snuck into a fancy restricted restroom but it was too fancy and I couldn't find anywhere to pee there was like a hot tub and all the stalls were really mysterious and fancy 02:54:23 so I went to akids playground bathroom but the bathroom was actually just structures in the playground that you pee into 02:54:31 and wherever I went there were kids watching me 02:54:48 oh I got that too 02:54:50 so i couldnt pee 02:55:05 oh it looks like i remembered another part of my dream but i describe it as "even stupider" i wonder what it was 02:55:08 for some reasons the architects in my dreams always forget to build walls around bathrooms 02:55:12 monqy: how was it restricted... 02:55:16 "like really stupid why would i even dream that" 02:55:18 elliott: idk 02:55:35 it looks like i dont describe it 02:55:43 hey do some of you guys have dreams that have been following you for a long time? 02:55:47 like, years 02:56:09 sometimes I have dreams that in my dream I sort of have a feeling I've had this dream before but really I haven't 02:56:24 well that's what I thought at first 02:56:25 i've had recurring dreams i think. i don't have them any more though 02:56:33 i stopped remembering dreams regularly years gao 02:56:35 *ago 02:56:50 i remember one nightmare i used to have quite frequently (i think??) was i'd be on a metal ladder 02:56:56 high up in the sky 02:56:56 but since it became very recurrent I started thinking about it while awake 02:57:01 like high up enough that if you looked down 02:57:04 it looked like a satellite map 02:57:07 so I'm pretty sure I've been having that dream for at least 8 years 02:57:10 not so high you could see the curvature of the earth 02:57:12 but high 02:57:18 and at the top a balloon 02:57:23 with someone else in it waiting for me 02:57:32 and i continue climbing up it 02:57:36 but instead it tips forward and falls 02:57:37 the ladder breaks at some point doesn't it 02:57:39 and then i wake up 02:57:45 ps the ladder isn't supported by anything or whatever 02:57:51 it's just hanging at the right angle somehow 02:57:52 a SPACE ELEVATOR 02:57:52 until it falls 02:58:24 wait, at the right angle, do you mean it's just like a ladder you'd raise to a wall? 02:58:35 as in, if you make the wall disappear the ladder would fall 02:58:55 yes 02:59:02 i guess it's actually resting on the balloon? 02:59:04 and the ground 02:59:04 that doesn't sound like something you'd want to use to climb to a balloon 02:59:08 its a dream Arc_Koen 02:59:13 another dream: I was at something between something between summer camp and normal school and there were a bunch of buildings out in a field and some of them were rooms from my house and one of them wa sthe rest of my house without those rooms 02:59:30 monqy: can you explain summer camp to me 02:59:34 i dont understand it 02:59:45 i got promoted to chair of the math club but then i got kicked out because of rumors i killed a man but i was accepted back in once they found out i only had a dream in which i killed a man and i did not actually kill a man 02:59:51 i forgot the dream in which i killed the man tho 03:00:11 monqy: did you ever kill a man 03:00:15 just checking 03:00:15 explaining that i didnt actually kill the man was very stressful for me and i was told that "killing a man isnt something you can just say sorry for" 03:00:18 i have never killed a man 03:00:24 ive killed bugs though 03:00:25 what about a woman 03:00:29 "coverin' my bases" 03:00:32 i've never killed a woman 03:00:35 never killed children 03:00:38 killed lots of bugs 03:01:21 anyway then evil clones started popping up and they had red eyes and I tried to convince people that they were just evil clones but they wouldn't listen 03:01:32 and then they became evil because the evil clones rubbed soap in their eyes 03:01:48 more eyes 03:01:50 I discovered that you can become non evil by washing the soap out with water 03:02:01 eventually everyone except me became evil ( I almost became evil but I washed my eyes) 03:02:11 then there was a montage of everyone being evil and chasing me 03:02:13 that must have hurt 03:02:37 they always had those thing in chem lab designed to wash your eyes in case you'd put something dangerous in them 03:02:41 I also remember there was a thing that because everyone thought I had killed a man I wasn't allowed to do anything at the camp until I had used my id info 14 times 03:02:46 looked like a torture device 03:03:00 you could sign in and stuff by holding a special sheet of paper near a magical thing that detected it and signed you in 03:03:16 hey had you had dreams where the whole universe was just an abstract board game? 03:03:21 nope 03:03:25 actually 03:03:26 maybe once 03:03:29 the recurring dream I had involved that 03:03:44 the dream i had where i fought shrek on a flying aircraft carrier might have qualified 03:03:59 but thats a different dream 03:04:03 a two-dimensional thingy, plus with a time dimension, and when I'm awake I just CAN'T figure out a way for it to make sense 03:04:21 and in the end the universe always lose 03:04:27 which is problematic 03:04:35 anyway also the parts of the camp that were my house had all the stuff in their rooms shuffled around and some were cleared out and had other stuff put in like arcade machines 03:04:38 and since I've been having this dream for years I know it'll come to that 03:04:57 the dream i had where i fought shrek on a flying aircraft carrier might have qualified 03:04:59 elabroaute now 03:05:00 I've never been able to prevent the universe from losing so I developed a strategy to prevent the universe from realizing it had lost 03:05:18 elliott: haven;t i already told you about this one 03:05:42 i'll...see if i can find it 03:06:13 yeah I found it in my logs of

I remember thifrst thing was obama talking to some people and it might have been a standup comedy routine? He was cracking jokes but only a few were actually funny but they made it worth it 03:35:38 in the second thing the only thing I remember was this little girl spins onto the stage and there's a really stupid joke but i couldn't stop laughing it's an amazing joke (i dont remember it) 03:35:47 2 other things happens and my friend catches me and takes me to a cafe thingy 03:35:55 wait no 03:35:57 before the cafe 03:36:08 ion: Who's ion1? 03:36:19 I forget what happened but at one point I went through the events with friend and they seemed real that time too. anyway after that cafe happened 03:36:32 shachaf: Where? 03:36:49 friend orders me a drink and insists I have one too but I don't want one and he gets into a bit of a spat with the storekeep or w/e since he's broke and keeps stopping by and never paying 03:36:59 i kept staring at the menu and didn't want anything on it 03:37:12 ion: On GitHub. 03:37:20 but i got this instinctive feeling it was time for watching i love lucy on the tv which was apparently an extended-family tradition in dreamland 03:37:26 shachaf: Probably some asshole. 03:37:33 ion: he's "much cooler than u" 03:37:58 so i ran really fast towards the i love lucy house and my cousins were running there too and i started giggling but i covered my mouth and i jumped and flew into the house and sorta crashlanded onto one of its walls 03:38:00 You should add a digit after your nick. 03:38:17 not really a crash i grabbed something on the wall and let myself down and we all watched i love lucy together 03:38:35 shachaf: no u 03:38:36 is monqy still talking about his dreams 03:38:39 yes 03:38:42 i love monqys dreams! 03:38:49 meams 03:39:06 more dream 03:39:24 1) i was at an ice cream place but they only had really dumb awful flavors. the only ones i could remember are "meat" and "lobster" 03:39:46 2) in this dream world people's memories are stored in their teeth and the tooth serves as a protection for the memory so if your teeth go bad you start forgetting stuff 03:40:02 and i think there was some horror about losing teeth in that dream, like in the space dentist dream. 03:40:17 anything about eyes 03:40:20 monqy: did they have any vegetarian flavours 03:40:36 soy banana 03:40:44 shachaf: i forget 03:40:47 The vegetarian version of banana 03:41:05 i had a dream about an evil dentist who would extract people's memories 03:41:09 wait no that was a computer game 03:41:49 One of the characters in Psychonauts was a bit like that…ish. 03:42:12 U+2F75D 'BULLET WITH BUTTERFLY WINGS' 03:42:34 dream: first part: took place sometime after i was done with elementary school but i was visiting it anyway. a friend I had who was all about military stuff irl was instead obsessed with synths and told me all about them. 03:42:37 ion: yes, that one 03:42:37 kmc++ 03:42:55 monqy: imo synths > military? 03:42:58 ye 03:43:01 sounds like your friend got...

I guess in one part I was in a team trying to enter some competition and there were a bunch of challenges we had to pass 04:05:00 another dream: another "me driving badly" dream :( 04:05:05 the last time it was someone else driving badly tho? 04:05:07 ps do you drive badly irl 04:05:18 ive never driven a car i dont have a license 04:05:22 me too 04:05:41 for each challenge we could only have 2 team members trying it at a time and one of the challenges was killing a herd of elephants 04:05:59 i guesss that's all i remembered 04:06:05 next dream 04:07:07 "In the past few days I've had 2 dreams where I played 2 weird video games that don't actually exist in real life :'(" 04:07:25 first video game dream: the game was something like you're visiting your relatives on a remote island and you;re there for 12 days 04:07:51 the game can end in a bunch of different ways depending on the stuff you do 04:08:12 I think I got one of the dumb bad endings and one of the "ok you played the game normally" endings 04:08:25 for the bad ending i went to my bed and slept through all 12 days 04:08:32 I remember a few things about the game though 04:08:47 like on the first night your grandmother dies and she's found in the bathroom with 3 blue candles lodged in her back 04:09:10 and another thing is if you kill your relatives you can collect your souls and give them to these clam soul receptacle things so they can be reborn and you can watch their dreams 04:09:30 were any of their dreams good 04:09:46 like i tried it with one of them and their dreams was this person that's just floating and he's all black and lumpy and instead of a face has a huge cavity covered up by a layer of weird stuff--think baleen hair 04:10:09 i think monqy remembers more things about his dreams than i remember about my entire life to date 04:10:36 next game dream: the part I remember is you're this girl and you have to get home but there's an explosion that happens on the way and for most endings of the game you have to get burned to a crisp but 04:10:51 i was going for the secret ending where you have to duck into a farm 04:11:14 and walk through the farm and there's a shack in the farm and you go in the shack and there's this guy who comes up to you on a tractor and I said hi and he made a really scary face so I ran away 04:11:17 monqy: did you play Myst III: Exile 04:11:22 I don't think so 04:11:28 oh 04:11:35 what about elliott 04:11:36 or kmc 04:11:40 no 04:11:49 i think monqy remembers more things about his dreams than i remember about my entire life to date 04:11:53 and there was an angry cat but there was also a nice cat so I got the nice cat to distract the angry cat and ran through and passed by a shy cat and it led into the girl's room and you prop yourself up on your disembodied legs which were waiting for you at the foot of your bed 04:11:55 well he isn't remembering them off the top of his head 04:12:39 thats it for that dream 04:13:32 hoo boy her'es a "bad dream" 04:14:16 the bad dream involved me drinking some beer that tasted like tomato juice and until I was about half way done with it it wasn't so bad apart from the taste but then at half way done it hit really hard and I got a splitting headache and felt really woozy 04:14:20 I don't remember why I drank it 04:14:29 [nb ive never drank anything ever irl so idk what its like] 04:14:41 it was lkike before school too 04:14:45 [don't you die of thirst??] 04:14:49 yes 04:14:54 its on my tombstone 04:14:56 [sorry :'(] 04:15:45 in another part i needed batteries for some reason and i don't know why but i decided to go to the nearby elementary school for them but as i was approaching i noticed they were sounding an alarm so i thought to myself "wow it must be the stranger alarm how convenient i'll be friendly and ask for some batteries" 04:16:15 so i go up to one of the playground supervisors and say hi stranger is the alarm a stranger alarm and she says no so i figure it'd be a bad idea to ask for batteries and i leave 04:16:23 then she says have a nice day and i realize she's my grandmother 04:16:48 also in this dream were giant bugs and they were my friends 04:16:55 huge centipedes crawling everywhere &c 04:18:11 dream: I was playing some new king's quest game and I got to a part where there was this wizard and he's like HOW MUCH DO YOU WANT TO ACHIEVE YOUR GOALS and there were four balloons each with choices in them to the north south east and west 04:18:17 i didn't see east or west but south was like 04:18:20 NOT VERY MUCH 04:18:23 A LITTLE BIT I GUESS 04:18:25 YES PLEASE 04:18:29 I REALLY WANT TO ACHIEVE MY GOALS 04:18:35 and north was just ADOLESENCE 04:18:45 are you talking about bridge 04:18:52 "i used to play bridge in 4th grade" 04:19:02 and eventually i figured out that this was the difficulty selection screen and to get hard mode you had to select the hardest difficulty, which was the uppermost, so i selected ADOLESENCE 04:19:04 "(or was it 3rd grade") 04:19:11 monqy: have you ever played a king's quest game. i played a few old ones but i was really bad at them 04:19:18 imo: lucasarts games: better?

04:21:39 "best game? i think so" 04:21:42 no but i've heard of it 04:21:59 "no i've neverhood of it" - not monqy 04:22:05 i remember one part where there are sort of platform things over water and you had to leap across them except they're freely rotating on their axles so they'll spin when you hit them and some sections of them are this blue thing with an arrow and if you touch the arrow you;ll get sent back to the start 04:22:22 and another part is just a water slide except all the water is actually blue dye and it dyes your skin blue 04:23:45 elliott: are you a grim "fan" dango 04:24:24 -!- david_werecat has joined. 04:24:25 -!- david_werecat has quit (Client Quit). 04:25:01 dream: what I remember: there's a virtual reality game and I'm playing it with an unkown friend and it's in black and white 04:25:06 at one point I think there's a big ball 04:25:10 and near the end there's a big bear 04:25:28 and I feel like being ajerk and moving in such a way as to attract the bear's atention and then get it to run towards my friend 04:25:33 and then we run away from the bear together 04:26:08 i remember one part where there are sort of platform things over water and you had to leap across them except they're freely rotating on their axles so they'll spin when you hit them and some sections of them are this blue thing with an arrow and if you touch the arrow you;ll get sent back to the start 04:26:12 this sounds sort of like this total wipeout thing 04:26:16 monqy: can i have your dreams :¸( 04:26:17 s/second this/that/ 04:26:26 my dreams are all about elliott. boring. 04:26:31 totes 04:29:46 elliott: http://www.danielamos.com/ 04:31:14 dream: I'm in this wacky town in the middle of nowhere staying at the house of some english teacher I don't know is she's a relative or if I'm in one of her classes in bizarro world or I'm coauthoring a dreambook with her or what 04:31:51 for some reason I'm looking through the tests/homework she gives and the short stories she writes and the short stories contain the answers to all the homework/tests but in really stupid ways 04:32:45 apparently someone made a full show out of a joke dub of the Kaiji anime and she made her class watch it and she wrote a fanfic about it and gave a homework/test/whatever problem about her fanfic 04:32:54 and she wrote another fanfic in which Kaiji answers her problem about him 04:32:57 and it's just the stupidest thing 04:33:13 then I noticed everyone in her neighbourhood was actually from her short stories 04:33:19 but then they noticed I noticed and tried to drown me 04:33:42 i think this may be the best dream yet 04:33:59 but I could breathe underwater and I found a manhole and went into the sewers but the sewers were glittery black caves with rainbow chalk grrowing out of the walls and if you crushed the chalk in your hands and pit them on the walls and pulled away you could make handholds and platforms and stuff 04:34:20 there was more water and I had to run away from it etc etc and when I got out of the cave I was like at this award ceremony thing and I fell onto the stage 04:34:43 where the english teacher and her neighbors and I were being awarded the prestigious award for Best Yaoi but nobody knew what yaoi meant 04:34:52 and then we lead the Yaoi Parade through town and oh god it was so stupid 04:34:56 and then i woke up 04:34:57 the end 04:35:16 04:35:21 ... 04:35:32 god its really weird to read these old dreams and i forget parts of them and then i read them and remember them 04:36:48 and thats the earliest dream i have logged in my logs from that channel 04:51:51 Can you believe luite was in SF and didn't get a proper burrito the entire time?

How can such thing simulation by computer? 06:05:55 Is there a way to set up a quota on amount of time a process can run on Linux? 06:06:01 And if so, is there a way to see this quota? 06:06:56 Sgeo: I don't know, but maybe you can make some program to run the other program and then stop it afterward, if you need that but it does not have another command to do that. 06:07:15 zzo38, I don't want to do it. I want to know if I'm laboring under it. 06:07:30 And it would be a quota for any process. 06:07:40 That I run 06:07:56 ask the sysadmin? 06:09:37 -!- Vorpal has joined. 06:09:38 Not even sure whether or not the sysadmin is the project manager or just someone the project manager knows. 06:10:06 -!- TeruFSX has joined. 06:13:34 ulimit 06:14:17 Found my answer. 06:19:04 -!- segorev has joined. 06:30:00 -!- Ceril has joined. 06:32:44 I need to stop writing programs in such a way that only I am able to configure the environment properly. 06:33:13 I guess that's more of a documentation issue. 06:33:39 it's both 06:42:12 -!- Ceril has left. 06:44:12 -!- impomatic has joined. 06:52:53 monqy: Have you watched Kaiji anime? I have watched the first two seasons, with subtitles. We put them in a CD and then played it on the DVD player. 06:53:11 yes I have 06:53:17 the first two seasons 06:53:20 are there more yet 06:53:38 I don't know if there is any more yet. 06:54:35 But I think it is very good. I also watched Death Note, although not even finish to watch first season we do have the CDs of the first and second season, and that is good too. Death Note is dubbed though, rather than subtitles. 06:55:25 I also have all the Akagi manga up to 25 06:56:06 I don't know majong; would it make sense without this knowledge 06:56:08 elliott: "i recommend not logreading the past half hour or so of #haskell" 06:56:38 monqy: Maybe a little bit, I suppose, although knowing mahjong would help to understand more. 07:06:41 I thought Death Note had both dubs and subs 07:08:36 Sgeo: Well, I don't know, the one I have for Death Note is dub, and the one for Kaiji is sub. These are what my brother found, they are in Xvid format so they will be recorded into a CD and then played in the combination VCR/DVD we have, which can also play DivX (on CD or DVD; apparently CD is faster though) 07:09:34 Maybe I should try to learn how to play Majong 07:09:43 Or maybe try actually playing Backgammon at some point. 07:09:52 Also it seems many more Xvid/DivX files can fit in one CD than storing standard DVD-video on DVD. 07:11:02 Sgeo: There are many different rules for mahjong; a popular mahjong rules is Japanese mahjong, which is also the one played in Akagi, and is popular throughout the world even in places where they play other forms of mahjong too. 07:19:08 Fukumoto (the person who wrote Akagi and Kaiji) mades terrible drawing (he admits this) but the story is very good, and he invented some games too, such as Washizu Mahjong, Restricted Rock-Paper-Scissors, E-card, and other games that were used in his manga. 07:21:55 -!- Nisstyre-laptop has quit (Quit: Leaving). 07:25:01 -!- epicmonkey has joined. 07:32:04 -!- segorev has quit (Quit: This computer has gone to sleep). 07:33:46 -!- segorev has joined. 07:50:00 -!- epicmonkey has quit (Ping timeout: 244 seconds). 08:18:48 ais523: what's nethack-tas doingon termcast.org 08:21:09 -!- copumpkin has quit (Ping timeout: 276 seconds). 08:21:40 -!- copumpkin has joined. 08:22:18 -!- Bike has quit (Quit: leaving). 08:23:00 -!- impomatic has quit (Quit: impomatic). 08:30:52 -!- Nisstyre-laptop has joined. 08:38:30 kmc: Did you know about annotate-output? 08:39:45 -!- ais523 has quit. 08:41:27 -!- impomatic has joined. 08:42:34 -!- TeruFSX has quit (Ping timeout: 260 seconds). 08:44:10 -!- segorev has quit (Quit: This computer has gone to sleep). 08:44:34 -!- segorev has joined. 08:47:13 -!- TeruFSX has joined. 08:48:45 * Sgeo vaguely wonders how to cheat ulimit -t 08:49:00 -!- carado has joined. 08:53:42 huh what...

(The sad thing is that it took like six months before I was motivated enough to do that.) 10:10:31 fizzie, heh 10:13:05 It's a bit weird that a new toner cartridge to this old cheap-when-it-was-bought b/w laser is about double the price of a brand new color laser. (160 eur, vs. 80 eur.) 10:13:36 haha 10:13:49 fizzie, is that a third party cartridge? 10:13:56 No, it's the official one. 10:14:08 What model of printer is it? 10:14:10 get third party ones? They are most likely way cheaper 10:14:56 It's still half full according to the sensors, it apparently just needed a good shake. It *has* been like five years in use already; we don't really use the printer much. 10:15:49 According to the statistics page a total of thousand pages has been printed on it, and I guess it's closer to seven years already when we got it. 10:15:54 (And it's a Lexmark E232.) 10:17:57 hm 10:22:01 I know at FreeGeek we have a Lexmark laser printer; I am unsure the model number, but I know they don't always use the newest equipment there (they just use whatever is available); it supports PCL, HTML, PDF, and PostScript, although I have only used the PCL. I think it is the only Lexmark laser printer which I have used, though. 10:22:47 This one is in the cheaper end of the range, so it only speaks PCL. 10:25:33 -!- nooodl has quit (Read error: Connection reset by peer). 10:25:36 That seem good enough. I don't know why the printer would need to support the other formats, since you should be able to convert whatever you have to PCL. 10:27:38 For example you can use Ghostscript if you need to run any PostScript files, or you can use programs such as "dvilj" and so on to convert DVI to PCL. Or, you can use the system printer drivers. 10:28:01 In addition, if you just have plain text, PCL compatible printers should print those too. 10:28:38 Network printers sometimes support all kinds of curious stuff. Like this one thing a friend had, you could FTP into it and upload a postscript file, then it would print it out. We even used that to make printing from Netscape in Linux work (this was... quite a while ago); the printing command was just a script that did a FTP upload.

The only thing I have an opinion on is which syntax is best 16:01:51 and you chose at&t? 16:02:09 olsner, well, I'm more used to reading that when it comes to x86 16:02:15 wow 16:03:10 olsner, other than x86(|-64) I mostly wrote PIC and AVR assembly. And I just used whatever the toolchain provided. Don't even remmeber PIC assembly any longer, was so many years ago 16:04:28 olsner, frankly I can quite easily adapt to whatever the toolchain uses, it is just a question of reading the docs. Assembly in general is not exactly complicated. There isn't much syntax to learn (especially on PIC or AVR) 16:04:47 and the rest is just reading data sheets for the ISA to figure out the instructions 16:04:58 (which can be a daunting task on x86) 16:05:12 Vorpal, x86 effective addressing is pretty unintuitive, actually 16:05:26 Phantom_Hoover, x86 is pretty unintuitive 16:05:34 and at&t syntax is an effective way of making it as unintuitive as possible 16:05:58 Phantom_Hoover, I don't write much asm on x86, I mostly read it, as output from gcc -S or similar 16:06:29 I code as little as possible in assembly. There are compilers for a reason. 16:06:41 People who write "mov [eax+4*ebx], cl" are always asking "why doesn't [eax+5*ebx] work?", though. 16:07:04 fizzie, well, that would be because 5 is not a power of 2 surely? 16:07:13 the syntax should show it as a shift then! 16:07:17 >_> 16:07:41 I forgot exactly how large a shift can be encoded though 16:07:53 well tbh nasm does automatically convert [5*eax] to [eax+4*eax] which is questionable 16:08:33 Phantom_Hoover, you are kind of out luck with [6*eax] though, presumably? 16:08:44 maybe 16:10:25 (yes) 16:13:26 1, 2, 4 and 8 are legal scales. 16:17:28 hm, why are volume controls so screwy for most sound card & head phone/ear bud/speaker combos. A reasonable level is usually either near max or near min... 16:17:36 or am I just being unlucky? 16:17:47 kmc: Did you see dne :: forall a. (forall m.

(Then again, for the laptop's headphone hole, the levels are quite reasonable.) 16:28:03 fizzie, hm 16:28:27 fizzie, I find that the built in speakers in my laptop require near max level for anything to happen 16:28:47 and any headphones or earbuds that I use require near minimum 16:29:14 fizzie, I had to set up a -35 dB gain to the output stage of my SB Live DSP to get a reasonable master volume control on it 16:29:19 which is pretty absurd 16:29:24 Ah, let lem1 :: (forall m. Monad m => (a -> m w)) -> (forall m. Monad m => (a -> m Void) -> m w) -> w; lem1 pos neg = case neg Left of Right y -> y; Left y -> runIdentity (pos y) 16:29:29 No absurd needed 16:30:13 -!- segorev has joined. 16:33:43 Vorpal: Well, for the USB dongle sensible volume levels (as per alsamixer) for the "Speaker" output -- the only control it has -- are about the steps 3/100 .. 6/100 (reportedly -27 .. -25 dB gain); anything below is completely silent, anything above is just too loud. 16:35:17 fizzie, heh 16:36:02 (Also, it has an "Auto Gain Control" toggle that's a *playback* control, according to alsamixer. I don't know what it does, but I would've assumed it's something to do with the mic capture instead.) 16:38:17 (Toggling it does absolutely nothing w.r.t. playback.) 16:43:31 fizzie, I have gain controls for virtually everything 16:44:37 Speaking of headphones, my wife's father, the high-fidelity guy, bought Sennheiser HD 800's recently; they came with this "certificate" paper thing that had the measured frequency response curves for that particular individual pair. (Then again, their price here is a thousand euros, so I suppose there's enough of a profit margin there to do small things like that.) 16:44:38 fizzie, btw, if you have a card based on emu10k1 I would suggest you swap the front and back channels, the front channel uses an AC97 codec for the DAC, the back one uses some I2S thingy instead 16:44:43 which is less noisy 16:45:02 fizzie, hah 16:45:15 mine only came with a general frequency response curve for the model 16:45:24 (BeyerDynamic DT-150) 16:45:30 (spelling?) 16:45:35 So did mine. I think; I've lost the box and any things like that. 16:46:26 Sennhaiser had cleverly stopped the curves at something like 50 Hz in the low end, 12.5 kHz in the high end, so it looked impressively flat. 16:51:19 heh 17:03:50 -!- elliott has quit (Remote host closed the connection). 17:07:34 -!- nooga has joined. 17:09:00 -!- segorev has quit (Quit: This computer has gone to sleep). 17:25:23 There's a really tiny embedded Google Maps box on this page; the [Map] [Satellite] [Terrain] buttons -- normally [Kartta] [Sateelliitti] [Maasto] in Finnish -- are shown as [Kartta] ([Ia] or [la]) [Maas]. 17:25:36 The last one is a reasonable truncation, but I don't know where that middle one is coming. 17:26:16 Copy-paste reveals it's a [la] button. 17:36:53 I also have a thing where NetworkManager goes to a "use 100% CPU" mode very often. 17:38:51 https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/network-manager/+bug/1009879 -- that thing except not always with Transmission. 17:39:22 -!- AnotherTest has joined. 17:39:28 Hello 17:39:33 Hey 17:39:59 -!- Phantom__Hoover has joined. 17:43:37 -!- Phantom_Hoover has quit (Ping timeout: 246 seconds). 17:43:52 The documentation for the Tumblr API is somewhat lacking in places 17:44:23 -!- Phantom_Hoover has joined. 17:45:02 -!- Phantom__Hoover has quit (Ping timeout: 246 seconds). 17:45:16 -!- segorev has joined. 17:47:53 -!- Phantom__Hoover has joined. 17:49:34 -!- Phantom_Hoover has quit (Ping timeout: 246 seconds). 17:50:10 -!- impomatic has quit (Quit: impomatic). 17:50:10 -!- Frooxius has quit (Read error: Connection reset by peer). 17:51:21 -!- Frooxius has joined. 17:52:23 -!- Bike has joined. 18:01:35 -!- ineiros has joined. 18:04:13 -!- NihilistDandy has quit (Quit: ["Textual IRC Client: www.textualapp.com"]). 18:07:25 -!- Phantom__Hoover has quit (Ping timeout: 246 seconds). 18:08:32 -!- Phantom_Hoover has joined. 18:14:57 shachaf: what is annotate-output? 18:15:15 oh i see 18:16:04 -!- Frooxius has quit (Read error: Connection reset by peer). 18:16:11 -!- Frooxius_ has joined. 18:16:16 -!- Frooxius_ has changed nick to Frooxius. 18:19:55 -!- zzo38 has joined. 18:37:09 -!- Phantom_Hoover has quit (Read error: Connection reset by peer). 18:40:38 -!- impomatic has joined. 18:41:59 Has anyone got any Forth books lurking around that are no longer required? :-) 18:42:32 I've got one on Lotus 18:42:35 That's kind of like Forth 18:52:00 Lotus 1-2-3? 18:53:15 The very same! 18:57:19 -!- oerjan has quit (Quit: AAAAAAAAAAA). 19:03:44 impomatic, there are some pretty good tutorials on line if you want that 19:17:37 Vorpal: it's stuff to collect / review / get ideas from that I'm looking for. 19:18:04 Particularly the advanced books 19:29:18 impomatic, don't have any such 19:29:43 impomatic, but Forth is not exactly a language that is hard to master I would say 19:32:13 -!- Nisstyre-laptop has joined. 19:34:21 god damn, chrome's unified search/url bar is annoying. Can't access dsldevice.lan, works fine in firefox 19:34:24 how weird 19:34:34 shame, since chrome is otherwise an awesome browser 19:35:31 I've found I'm unhappy with all browsers. 19:35:35 But least unhappy with Opera. 19:35:36 oh? 19:35:59 I never really liked opera, not for any specific reason though, just generally unhappy with it 19:36:38 Firefox is the slowest, buggiest piece of shit. Chrome is well-implemented, but my web browsing habits are incompatible with its UI. 19:36:45 oh? 19:36:51 what habits are those? 19:36:53 To give you an idea: I use vertical tabs. 19:36:59 huh 19:37:05 does even firefox support that? 19:37:09 With an extension. 19:37:16 so tabs on the side instead of the top? 19:37:20 Yup. 19:37:33 what are the advantages of that setup? 19:37:55 Easy access to a giant bunch of tabs. Makes use of screen real estate better. 19:38:13 assuming you have a wide screen monitor that is 19:38:20 otherwise it would waste space 19:38:25 And I do. 19:38:30 also assuming you use full screen browser 19:38:33 which I don't 19:38:34 Which I do. 19:38:37 right 19:38:44 so not a good setup for me 19:38:51 The big thing, though, is that I use a *lot* of tabs. 19:38:57 IMO chrome works well for me except for the unified URL/search thing 19:39:43 and I try to cut down on number of tabs, I found I simply used it as a backlog and would not end up using the top ones once they went down more than a few lines in firefox (with tab mix plus) 19:39:54 I have 52 tabs open right now. 19:40:02 about 20 19:40:11 I used to have upwards of a few hundred 19:41:47 question: does anyone have any idea why Android phones would adjust the volume in fixed steps, instead of a smooth slider? 19:42:00 None at all. 19:42:28 there seems to be no advantage to it, also it means I need to use the equaliser in the music player to apply maximum negative value over the board 19:42:45 otherwise I would just use volume 1 19:42:53 now I use 1-4 depending on the music 19:44:53 I'm listening to Volume 6 at the moment 19:45:03 Track 11, Wacky Antics 19:45:41 atriq, volume 6 of what? 19:45:55 Homestuck 19:45:59 I see 19:46:52 I'm currently listening to the $10 reward from the ocremix kickstarter, which is an album by Big Giant Circles. 19:46:56 chiptunes 19:47:18 Are you enjoying it? 19:47:31 so far yes 19:47:47 :) 19:48:11 the album is called Impostor Nostalgia, I don't think it is pure chiptunes. It is chiptunes + some other instruments as well 19:48:56 atriq, I'm glad I got my SB Live 5.1 working under windows 7 (64-bit) finally so I can enjoy some proper sound quality there, instead of the shitty on board. 19:49:12 it is a massive difference from the so called Intel "HD" audio 19:49:29 Vorpal: no, not hard to master.
