CONFIG.SYS had a FILES directive for the number of files that could be opened at once; typical values would be 20 to 40. 19:47:50 (keep in mind that as a rule, only one process would have files open at a time. so that's actually plenty.) 19:53:50 FILES=255 19:53:56 (It doesn't go any higher.) 19:54:55 but that eats kilobytes of memory! 19:57:07 -!- ais523 has joined. 20:01:10 mmm.. kilobytes... 20:06:41 -!- Bike has quit (Ping timeout: 252 seconds). 20:11:58 -!- Bike has joined. 20:13:51 I have FILES=80 in my CONFIG.SYS, it seems. 20:14:00 FILES=80 STACKS=9,256 20:14:27 Oh, wait; there's FILES=35 for some other menu options. 20:14:32 -!- faryad has joined. 20:17:10 -!- faryad has quit. 20:20:20 fizzie: you still have a config.sys? 20:20:32 people here have weird, weird setups. 20:20:57 @tell zzo38 you are the weirdest. 20:20:58 Consider it noted. 20:21:34 ais523: I have one too in my bochs dos install. I have to play commander keen somehow. 20:21:47 ais523: It's in ~/archive/backup/older/colin/old/misc_install/4dos/config.sys, so it's not exactly... active... 20:21:57 fair enough 20:22:10 colin? 20:22:12 * ais523 runs locate config.sys 20:22:19 I guess colin is a hostname 20:22:24 boily: A former hostname, indeed. 20:22:33 well, I might be able to play it without a config.sys in dosbox, technically, but I run a real ms-dos in bochs more often 20:22:54 I use dosbox only for games that don't run under bochs 20:23:42 I should perhaps do some directory cleaning some day. 20:24:01 As an illustrative example, there's the directory ~/__UBUNTU__/_MUST_SORT_/momusspace-before-crash/mnt/_NSA_MOVE_/music_unsorted/random/old/unsorted/ that has some music in it. 20:24:47 ais: in fact, I also have a smaller bochs install that I wired up to irc and might be thematically approperiate for this channel: 20:24:56 btw, I figured out what's up with Unity; it's trying to become Google Desktop 20:25:06 you can run edlin in it to edit files, then bcc to compile C and run the executables 20:25:07 which explains why people are confused 20:25:12 so it can serve as an evalbot 20:25:16 b_jonas: wow, I used to use bcc 20:25:17 I guess /etc/dosemu/freedos/config.sys doesn't really count. 20:25:35 I can show it if you want but it's a bit verbose so probably not on this channel 20:25:51 (I would have to dig out the HD image from a previous PC) 20:25:56 there's #esoteric-blah for things that are appropriate here except too verbose 20:25:59 but it hasn't been used for ages 20:26:03 hi b_jonas 20:26:07 and so I doubt anyone's there 20:27:27 if you want to try it, just tell me so 20:28:02 evalbot? HackEgo is good enough for me... 20:28:27 but this runs a full OS where you have root rights 20:28:41 there's an even more off-topic channel than #esoteric? wooooah, duuuuude... 20:28:44 still sounds like hackego 20:29:09 theoretically you can even install a new OS on it and reboot, all through irc, only you want a very small OS because it's not connected to the internet so you have to transmit all the files through irc 20:29:41 "not connected to the internet" haha 20:30:17 (no internet protocol, I got it, but it's still a funny claim when you can talk to it via IRC) 20:30:48 technically, IRC would work without being part of the public Internet, despite the "Internet" in its name 20:30:52 no, it's not no internet protocol 20:30:58 it's that the virtual machine doesn't have a net connection 20:31:01 Usenet used to not be part of the public Internet at all 20:31:08 only a serial console which a wrapper connects to irc 20:31:13 although nowadays nearly always goes over the Internet 20:31:25 there's probably some Usenet-only cable still keeping it connected somewhere 20:32:53 in theory you could install a linux on the vm and use the same wrapper, configured to talk through serial console, and it would still not have net access 20:34:22 Ah, but if you set it to talk slirp or something over the IRC to another system that's configured to route for it. 20:34:29 Then you could argue it suddely has net access. 20:34:33 then the other system is proxying for it 20:34:36 so it only has proxy access 20:34:55 fizzie: yes, only the bandwidth would be really slow 20:35:03 That's not any different from a carrier who does NAT for all their customers, and that's still called "net access". 20:35:20 sure, but you don't need net access 20:35:31 you could just directly type an uuencoded file through the serial console 20:35:52 but you'd be limited in bandwidth seriously 20:35:55 so it's not worth 20:36:18 It's a matter of principle. 20:36:22 if you wanted to transmit large files, it would be easier to convince me to give you some kind of direct access outside of irc, or run the machine yourself, or something 20:36:26 sure 20:37:56 fungot: Do you consider yourself to have net access? 20:37:56 fizzie: yes, pilots on board...there were 136 people on board. the first modern warfare(which i think his face. well, atleast in tucson, arizona. during the cold war. 20:38:54 hmm, now I have an urge to show that bot here and get kicked for flood 20:39:48 b_jonas: your bot couldn't be as floody as mine. let's have a duel! 20:40:01 boily: ok, on what channel? 20:40:21 b_jonas: esoteric-blah. 20:40:25 boily: #buubot ? that channel likes floody bots 20:40:43 buubot? 20:40:48 #esoteric-blah then 20:43:41 -!- genesisp31011 has joined. 20:44:30 -!- genesisp31011 has left. 20:46:53 Woo 20:46:58 I made a function to display a number 20:47:20 good job. 20:48:37 -!- MindlessDrone has quit (Quit: MindlessDrone). 20:48:57 -!- oerjan has joined. 20:55:21 Wrong window <-- in which Slereah accidentally reveals his al-qaeda membership. 20:55:32 Well it was for #generalrelativity 20:55:40 (It's a secret Al Qaeda front) 20:55:41 (convert 0 <= al <= 15 to 0123456789ABCDEF ASCII:) cmp al, 10; sbb al, 69h; das 20:55:54 We discuss the word of the Imam Al Bert 20:57:23 gener al-relativity 21:02:11 `ello relativity 21:02:13 Hello, relativity! 21:03:06 int-e: yeah, it falls back to a simple hello when it can't mangle the name nicely..
