00:00:23 If the key to your house also requires a password, the password would be inside on your own keypad so it is harder to steal than credit card passwords. 00:00:44 Especially if you don't use the police connections they provide, and install your own instead. 00:00:48 zzo38: I have to have the bank accept at least one of my ids, because I have to be able to have business with them. I can probably tell them not to accept a card once it's stolen, but I'm not quite confident they would comply. 00:00:55 Such thing can confuse people who try to enter without permission. 00:01:36 b_jonas: Yes, one ID may be needed, but it can be a different one than normally is. 00:01:45 what? you can't practically have your key require a password, because then you'd risk shutting yourself outside drunk after a party. 00:01:49 -!- tromp has joined. 00:02:05 -!- ^v has joined. 00:02:09 I don't like to get drunk. 00:02:45 And the password would be on the inside of the door so after you open the door you have to push it in, making it harder for other people to watch from the outside. 00:03:06 Maybe make the bank ID that requires to be sealed with a password and/or digital signature. 00:03:07 zzo38: that might be true, though I'm not sure it's practical because there's a limit on the number of id cards I can have (probably 4) and I need them for many things. it's still a good idea and worth to investigate. 00:03:49 There is an article in 2600 where he replaces some of his cards every few months, and uses his passport mainly as ID 00:04:17 also, you need some sort of plan for what to do with the bank if that ID you use for the bank is stolen. 00:04:36 I'm not sure how that could work. 00:04:55 I also prefer to pay in cash in most thing, although I do have a bank account too. 00:05:09 paying for cash for everything is expensive. 00:05:28 (in europe that is) 00:05:46 Why is it expensive to do that in Europe? 00:06:16 and if you pay in cash for everything, you have to carry lots of cash often, which means you very likely lose more if it's stolen then if they steal your cards. 00:06:38 You only have to carry the money you use, not all of it. 00:07:12 And if it money with holes so it can be tied to your clothing then it is more difficult to steal. 00:07:17 sure, and I don't have to carry much because I can pay with a card if necessary, especially for high valued transactions. 00:07:57 as for tied to your clothing, well sure, not exactly tied, but I do make my valuables physically hard to steal, 00:08:09 You can pay by card if you prefer 00:08:13 unlike some of the women with open purses you can see walking around here a lot. 00:08:17 If you can tie the card in a similar way it is just as hard to steal. 00:08:47 But the merchant can still commit credit card fraud on you. 00:09:18 (For example, by displaying "TRANSACTION FAILED" even though it is actually approved.) 00:09:20 Finland is in Europe, and I don't think paying everything you'd go out and physically but with cash would really cost any more than paying by card. With the exception of bus tickets, where it's cheaper to get the (wireless) card. 00:09:27 no, he can commit a debit card fraud, which is worse. this is Europe, don't forget. we don't have checks here, and credit cards aren't so common. 00:09:55 Yes, debit card fraud too. 00:09:56 That "but" in there is supposed to be a "buy". 00:11:07 If I run a business I would wish to encourage customers to pay by cash. 00:11:56 zzo38: sure, for a business it's cheaper if the customer pays by cash, but for a customer it's cheaper to pay by card. 00:12:03 -!- tromp has quit (Remote host closed the connection). 00:12:16 -!- shikhout has joined. 00:12:16 Why is it cheaper to pay by card, exactly? 00:12:22 I am not talking about if it is cheaper or not 00:12:39 I want the customer to pay in cash to avoid tracing the credit card. 00:13:07 Possibly you can take advantage of rounding laws in places that have them. 00:13:12 fizzie: because you pay for getting the cash from the bank; whereas I don't pay for paying with a card, the vendor is paying for the transaction, and also for the card terminal equipment and internet connection. 00:13:24 I don't pay for getting the cash from the bank. 00:13:31 And people generally don't. 00:13:50 There are some ATMs with transaction fees, but they're quite rare. 00:14:15 -!- tromp has joined. 00:14:21 I also don't pay for getting the cash from the bank, because it is a credit union and the law in BC is that you don't pay if you withdraw from credit unions, whether or not you are using ATM, and if you are using a ATM, even if it is one for a different credit union. 00:14:36 fizzie: you do pay if you wanted to use cash for everything. you can avoid most in practice by paying with a card. 00:14:59 Sometimes I keep the money in my desk drawer anyways; I don't always keep all of it in the bank anyways. 00:15:12 -!- shikhin has quit (Ping timeout: 255 seconds). 00:15:16 -!- shikhout has changed nick to shikhin. 00:15:25 zzo38: do you pay a monthly fee for having such a bank account or card for which you don't pay for getting cash without any limits 00:15:28 ? 00:15:31 s/getting/withdrawing/ 00:16:30 b_jonas: No, I don't pay a monthly fee either. But I do pay shareholding fees, which is just a one-time fee, however. 00:16:58 I pay a (small) monthly fee, but that's not related to any specific no-withdrawing-fees account/card. 00:17:07 You need shareholding fees to have an account, and since I paid shareholding fees, they keep sending me stuff to vote for their board of directors, even though I have told them I don't care at this time. 00:18:03 I See 00:18:19 It's very country-specific, of course. 00:18:55 sure 00:19:09 it's also very country-specific how many vendors let you pay by card 00:19:30 here I shop in lots of places where I can't pay by card 00:19:54 not so many as to cause a serious problem, but still 00:20:24 Sometimes people with me insist to pay by card, and I then pay them bach with cash afterward (and I always demand exact change). 00:20:59 Personally, I only use cash in the university restaurants, because it's still slower to type a PIN and wait for the on-line confirmation, and those places always have queues. 00:21:30 fizzie: those places also sometimes don't have change when you pay by cash 00:22:14 -!- oerjan has quit (Quit: leaving). 00:22:19 which is why I usually carry 2000 forint banknotes instead of larger ones, so I don't meet this no change problem at such places 00:24:47 fizzie: cross-bank ATM withdrawals take fees 00:25:00 There's about 14 or so places on the campus (operated by maybe 5-6 different companies), and they all have their own "buy 10 tickets in advance" programs that are completely incompatible. 00:25:02 And I tend to be too lazy to walk to the ATM for my bank :/ 00:25:17 Sgeo: exactly, and choosing the bank that has more ATMs take monthly fees 00:25:33 Sgeo: Well, they don't, here. 00:26:28 Or, rather, there's one ATM operator (Otto) that has maybe 90% of the ATMs, and withdrawals from those are free for at least most banks. 00:26:30 Sgeo: In British Columbia however, ATMs for credit unions do not have fees for any credit union in the province, by law. 00:26:59 ATMs for other banks still do sometimes have fees but not if both the ATM and your account are a credit union, even if they are two different ones. 00:27:48 (Not even the restaurants operated by the same company take the same lunch coupons.) 00:37:37 -!- tromp has quit (Remote host closed the connection). 00:38:13 -!- tromp has joined. 00:39:34 -!- tromp__ has joined. 00:39:34 -!- tromp has quit (Read error: Connection reset by peer). 00:44:33 -!- Sprocklem has joined. 00:58:01 Are there any cryptocurrencies backed by gold? 01:04:55 how would that work? someone is willing to give n units of gold per 1 goldbackcoin? 01:12:08 Yes 01:24:19 `run while ! coins 5000 | tr ' ' '\n' | grep gold; do :; done | head -1 01:24:50 No output. 01:24:52 It does work, sometimes. 01:24:58 `run while ! coins 5000 | tr ' ' '\n' | grep gold; do :; done | head -1 # TRY AGAIN 01:25:17 goldenickcoin 01:25:25 There you go. 01:25:32 (I got abellgoldicoin and goldrivcoin out of it, earlier.) 01:38:04 -!- nooodl has quit (Quit: Ik ga weg). 01:41:28 -!- tromp__ has quit (Remote host closed the connection). 01:42:00 -!- tromp has joined. 01:44:03 Why does playing MP3 files say things like [4:58/2:20] as the time?

WHAT? 05:25:31 why wouldn't you be able to 05:25:31 Was under the impression there's a category of offenses which are not bailable, and not sure why rape wouldn't be in there 05:25:34 as i understand it's done case by case (in the arraignment) and in fact the default is a right to bail. 05:25:34 "18 U.S.C. § 3142(f) provides that only persons who fit into certain categories are subject to detention without bail: persons charged with a crime of violence, an offense for which the maximum sentence is life imprisonment or death, certain drug offenses for which the maximum offense is greater than 10 years, repeat felony offenders, or if the defendant poses a serious risk of flight, obstruction of justice, or witness tampering" 05:25:34 so rather than only some crimes being "not bailable" it's that only some crimes admit the possibility of being held without bail. 05:25:34 i think they usually only set no bail if it's likely they're gonna run, or if it's likely they're going to do something again while out. football player probably isn't in either category. 05:25:34 one time i was at an arraignment where the judge set bail at something silly because they were pissed at the media circus around the guy. kinda funny to watch 05:25:35 newsham: In what instruction set is it? 05:25:37 Do you have to fix the program counter when you are returning from a subroutine? 05:44:47 -!- tromp has quit (Remote host closed the connection). 05:45:21 -!- tromp has joined. 05:49:29 -!- tromp has quit (Ping timeout: 240 seconds). 05:49:55 no particular instruction set..sort of pdp/vax-ish 05:50:57 -!- TodPunk has quit (Ping timeout: 244 seconds). 05:51:37 -!- pikhq has quit (Ping timeout: 240 seconds). 05:52:26 -!- TodPunk has joined. 05:52:29 -!- pikhq has joined. 05:57:26 newsham: What is it for, then? 05:57:43 It occurs to me that if I ever have jury duty, I might not find out because my asshat of a dad gave me no way of retrieving the mail 05:58:11 He won't give me the mail key because he thinks I'll lose it.

Though it's rather unsuitable for reading multi-page files. 20:39:18 It opens a selection dialog where you can import the pages you want, as separate layers. 20:39:27 it rasterizes on load, naturally 20:39:39 Right, there's that, too. 20:39:42 http://sprunge.us/eTiN there's probably some sort of a priority mechanism, but I don't know what. 20:39:55 -!- ^v has joined. 20:40:08 Also not sure where gimp comes from; it's not in /usr/lib/mime/packages/ which I thought was the general source for /etc/mailcap. 20:41:58 Oh, I guess it also picks up file types from .desktop entries. 20:42:21 Sadly, unlike the /usr/lib/mime/packages/ files, there's no priority numbers. 20:42:58 (/usr/share/applications/gimp.desktop lists http://sprunge.us/ecff) 20:44:58 Vorpal: dunno, i think the mane "vorpal kickass'o" is pretty amazing <-- what are you talking about? 20:45:16 btw there's a march hare in those books too <-- oh you have a good point. it is indeed the march hare, not the easter hare 20:46:50 fizzie, sure /etc/mailcap is used? I thought it was some files in ~/.config that were used? 20:47:10 I'm not sure at all. I know some software uses /etc/mailcap. 20:47:11 wine used to overwrite a lot of extensions (like .txt) which annoyed the hell out of me 20:47:28 I fixed it by removing files from ~/.config/something 20:47:44 also I found some way to prevent it adding new files, forgot what it was 20:49:15 ~/.local/share/applications/ seems to be part of the file extension association mechansim of XDG. 20:49:17 Anyone used mosh? The ssh-kind-of-replacement? 20:49:36 fizzie, that sounds familiar yes 20:49:40 Vorpal: yes; I was a developer for a while 20:49:44 I use mosh. 20:49:59 and i'm using it right now :) 20:50:02 I was going to say "I thought it was at least partly developed by #esotericers" 20:50:26 I also remember disliking it for no good reason 20:50:29 kmc, does it have proper scrollback yet? 20:50:50 What about xterm mouse input thingy for curses programs? 20:51:06 Those two things didn't work last I tried it, so I just gave up on it back then 20:51:12 was wondering if it was any better now 20:51:28 I take it mosh is recoding the terminal codes, screen-style? 20:51:48 ais523, pretty sure yes 20:51:52 I don't think it does either 20:52:12 ais523: yes, it tracks the terminal state on the server side and then runs a state-sync protocol between that and the client 20:52:18 Well then, then I'm not going to be using mosh for a while 20:53:22 you can use another program that handles scrollback 20:53:31 or just continue to act smug on IRC 20:53:49 e.g. tmux and screen both do scrollback 20:53:50 I use screen anyway (which means I have server-side scrollback) and I've basically never tried to use xterm mouse support for anything other than some graphics demos :) 20:54:00 as well as programs that handle their own scrollback (less, irssi, ...) 20:54:01 elliott, I prefer it to be in my actual terminal emulator, but okay. Doesn't solve the mouse input issue though 20:54:05 btw, I didn't expect Vorpal to complain about lack of mouse support in a terminal program; it's a legitimate complaint, just didn't expect Vorpal to be the one to make it 20:54:12 but if you need these things then yeah you probably can't use mosh 20:54:41 kmc, need? No. Go crazy without them? yes 20:54:52 Vorpal: mosh can't do that 20:55:12 elliott, sadly that is the case. It is an awesome concept though. 20:55:22 I mean inherently. 20:55:37 if you output 100 screens of output instantly, there is no guarantee you'll even receive all 100. 20:55:41 it just wants to sync the current screen state. 20:56:06 Right, but question is if it could be redesigned to support it. I don't know. 20:56:18 Anyway the mouse issue could be solved as far as I know. 20:56:21 yes! you could send every byte that comes through the terminal, and negate half the point 20:56:25 um, which terminal? 20:56:27 Vorpal: yes it can, there's a github issue about it 20:56:34 Vorpal: it's kind of ugly[3~y though 20:56:38 ugly* 20:56:42 heh 20:56:42 recent versions of screen do transmit mouse commands (at least some variants of it), though old versions don't 20:56:44 I believe the traditional response is "patches welcome" 20:56:52 kmc, well, duh, terminal control codes are ugly :P 20:57:03 VT100 is an ugly mess overall 20:57:09 Bah, these things are so complicated. At least the PDF app is now selected, with the aid of xdg-mime. 20:57:22 Vorpal: I agree with you, no need for "duh" 20:57:32 and I'm the opposite, I specifically have a patch to be able to disable terminal mouse support for some programs that want to use it 20:57:41 kmc, that was not used in a provocative way 20:57:55 okay 20:58:20 elliott: I don't think it's impossible to support scrollback; we've talked about a system for sending pages of scrollback to the client on demand 20:58:23 b_jonas, oh? How does the existance of it bother you? Just shift select in the xfce terminal at least if you want to select text from such a program 20:58:29 but it won't be part of the local terminal's native scrollback 20:58:36 kmc: it was in reply to Vorpal wanting native scrollback 20:58:45 yeah 20:58:48 you basically can't do that 20:58:55 Vorpal: You never know when you need to press shift or not. 20:59:18 kmc: you could with mosh-terminal 20:59:24 kmc, hm, why is that? can't you sync up to n (configurable) pages of scrollback? Or doesn't terminals support editing the history? 20:59:29 kmc: which links to mosh as its vt implementation 20:59:29 don't* 20:59:32 Vorpal: it helps because I don't have to press shift to select stuff, and also because it lets me mouse click in the terminal window to focus on it (when another window was focused) without issuing a command 20:59:38 kmc: actually that's a cool idea. 20:59:50 Vorpal: I don't use this much these days though 20:59:50 b_jonas, fair enough 21:00:11 Vorpal: I don't think they support history editing 21:00:14 not sure 21:00:19 Hm 21:00:25 Yeah I guess that would cause some issues 21:00:26 the programs where this happens are aptitude and elinks 21:01:02 but if nethack4 gains mouse support, I might start to use this feature for it 21:01:04 -!- nisstyre has quit (Quit: WeeChat 0.4.3). 21:01:16 b_jonas, I use mouse support in aptitude, heh 21:01:25 That is about where I use it actually 21:03:36 I see 21:03:52 kmc, I think wikipedia is a bit confused wrt mosh: 21:03:53 e.g. tmux and screen both do scrollback <-- oh hum how do you do that? i've been having to capturing shell command with less just because putty's scrollback stopped working when i started using tmux 21:03:53 "There is no such thing as scrollback with mosh, even if your terminal window has a scrollbar, it disappears when using mosh,[17] this is trade-off for garbage cleaning: binary output is wiped away for what should make sense: no session lockups because you accidentally did a cat of a binary. You will miss output like this. The best way to mitigate this is currently by using mosh in combination with scre 21:03:54 en or tmux.[18]" 21:03:55 well, it's an option I can toggle, so I can still use mouse support in programs where I want to 21:04:04 oerjan: I don't know, I don't use them :p 21:04:08 Scrollback and binary output? Really? 21:04:25 Not sure they have anything to do with each other 21:08:06 *capture 21:11:18 -!- Phantom_Hoover has joined. 21:18:49 -!- ais523 has quit. 21:18:56 elliott: ok it was just ^B then PgUp and PgDn work until you press q 21:19:47 or to be precise, it's ^B PgUp etc. 21:21:24 so now i don't need to be so careful with shell output. 21:22:20 (the man page was confusing enough that i had to google for a superuser.com explanation, though :P) 21:23:02 I always just use the copy mode when I want to try screen scrollback. 21:23:34 fizzie: afaiu ^B PgUp is an abbreviation for ^B [ PgUp, where the first part enters copy mode 21:23:50 oerjan: Was this screen or tmux? 21:23:54 tmux 21:24:06 Hokay. Screen doesn't seem to have that shortcut. 21:30:11 Isn't chrome supposed to use one process per tab? 21:30:34 According to the task manager thing in chrome, some (unrelated) tabs are sharing currently 21:32:04 Oh good, now both evince and zathura have stopped rendering ligatures.

A PDF without the font embedded? 21:47:57 N1570 does not embed "Times". 21:48:26 http://sprunge.us/YRKb 21:52:26 Hrrm 21:52:40 fizzie, I guess you could install real Times? 21:52:47 Should probably fix it 21:53:14 fizzie, probably corefonts 21:53:37 If you mean the Microsoft font, that's Times New Roman, and I've got it installed. 21:53:49 Oh okay, I thought it included Times too 21:54:21 Times /is/ New Roman 21:54:39 elliott, pretty sure Times and Times New Roman are different fonts? 21:54:48 Otherwise that is rather confusing 21:55:11 I'm addicted to wathcing Antichamber videos 21:55:17 Even though it ruins the game experience 21:55:18 "Times Roman, and its licensees like Adobe and Apple, is the font family used by Linotype. Times New Roman, and its licensees like Microsoft, is licensed from Monotype. Linotype classifies Times Roman as the upright (Roman) font of the Times family." 21:55:26 Sgeo, have you played the game yet? 21:55:30 If not, do so first 21:55:44 Vorpal: if talking about the actual typefaces, "Times" is shorthand for "Times New Roman". cf. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Times_Roman 21:55:54 Vorpal: I've played some of it a while ago but haven't finished it 21:56:01 elliott, hm 21:56:06 elliott: not only. Times can mean the somewhat similar font by Adobe, or other fonts 21:56:20 The PDF is probably talking about the family, though. At least I would think so. 21:56:31 But yeah, I started watching videos with the full realization that it would spoil the rest of the game 21:56:34 elliott, so is Times Roman and Times New Roman the same as well? 21:56:39 Now I'm really confused 21:56:58 playing things? sounds hard 21:57:00 Anyway, I'm sure Times New Roman would be a better replacement for "Times" in this PDF than one where all the ligatures are named differently. 21:57:11 Vorpal: it's not confusing. 21:57:17 Oh? 21:57:31 http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Roman_type 21:57:37 -!- not^v has joined. 21:57:43 Times New Roman is "the new Roman typeface for the Times" 21:57:55 it is understandably often shortened to just Times 21:58:04 and your quote explains "Times Roman". 21:58:27 elliott, so that is then the only difference between Times Roman and Times New Roman? Okay then I get it 22:00:04 there is no difference. it's just names. 22:00:18 I mean, you can contrast saying "Times Roman" vs. "Times Italic" or something. 22:00:40 Fair enough 22:01:23 -!- ^v has quit (Ping timeout: 252 seconds). 22:02:43 elliott, huh, guess not: 22:02:46 "Although Times and Times New Roman are variations on a theme from the Times family, various differences developed between the versions marketed by Linotype and Monotype when the master fonts were transferred from metal to photo and digital media. For example, Linotype has slanted serifs on the capital S, while Monotype's are vertical, and the addition of a serif on the number 5[8] in Linotype's that is 22:02:46 absent in Monotype's." 22:03:05 Most of them invisible at normal size and distance though 22:03:07 Oh well 22:04:01 "Microsoft's version of Times New Roman licensed from Monotype matches the widths from the Adobe/Linotype version (a PostScript core font by Linotype). It has the lighter capitals that were originally developed for printing German (where all nouns begin with a capital letter). Versions of Times New Roman from Monotype exist which vary from the Linotype metrics (i.e. not the same as the version for Micro 22:04:02 soft)." 22:04:11 Okay this is starting to get rather complicated :P 22:05:06 As for why fontconfig prefers TeX Gyre Termes, seems that fonts-texgyre installs a /etc/fonts/conf.d/30-fonts-texgyre-aliases.conf that aliases "Times" to it in such a way that it's preferred over the other, more exhaustive listings. 22:05:24 fizzie, so I guess locally patch that? 22:05:30 Guess so. 22:05:58 (Mind you, it is supposed to be a "Times" replacement.) 22:08:08 Yay, ligatures. (Changed it with a ~/.config/fontconfig/fonts.conf rule.) 22:09:54 Fontconfig configuration is silly-complicated, though. 22:15:20 Vorpal: would you happen to know where the Antichamber music is stored? 22:15:35 I want to listen to the music of a part of the game (that I haven't reached myself) 22:18:10 Sgeo, eh, nope 22:18:22 fizzie, also xml 22:20:08 Sgeo, just play the game first to avoid spoilers? You will thank yourself for it later 22:20:19 Vorpal: too late 22:20:41 Antichamber soundtrack is in Spotify, if that helps? (It probably doesn't.) 22:20:44 that was stupid then? 22:20:44 At any rate, I think I did get through most of the game before 22:20:50 Amusingly many game soundtracks seem to be there. 22:20:56 fizzie, huh 22:21:17 Maybe I should get spotify then? Except I want to listen to it on the go mostly 22:21:19 I've listened to the Super Meat Boy soundtrack from there. 22:21:25 So that would mean premium or whatever 22:21:35 Also mobile data 22:21:46 It's "sorta-free" on mobile these days, except quite limited. 22:22:06 Oh? okay 22:22:21 On devices classified as tablets, it's identical to the desktop version (so ads but otherwise full-featured); on devices classified as phones it's... something more complicated. 22:22:31 You can only listen to precreated playlists on shuffle, or something like that. 22:22:39 That is stupid 22:22:47 (Also no offline mode.) 22:23:02 Black Tile 22:23:08 http://siddharthabarnhoorn.bandcamp.com/album/antichamber 22:23:54 Quite a lot are in Bandcamp too, that's true. 22:24:19 yeah I get a lot of music from bandcamp these days 22:24:32 That or loudr 22:24:45 Homestuck music is all on Bandcamp, so 22:25:20 Hm 22:25:35 Daft Punk should whip up an "Internet age" song they'd call "Hardr, Bettr, Fastr, Strongr". 22:25:36 Antichamber is mostly ambient right? 22:25:46 Hah 22:26:33 Approximately 22200 people have made that joke before, I see. 22:27:18 fizzie, I assume they made a song called that but spelled properly? 22:27:38 Yes. 22:27:43 Okay 22:28:08 Though apparently in 2001, I thought it was older than that. 22:28:10 Yeah it appears to be ambient 22:29:21 Can't seem to find a Wikipedia category or list article for "websites named like that". 22:31:43 (Just an answers.com article with 132 examples.) 22:31:57 fizzie, wow? Really? 22:32:06 http://sprunge.us/BfRL there you go 22:32:20 Why... 22:32:29 I thought loudr was a bit silly anyway 22:32:43 but calcr on that list? That doesn't even make any sense 22:33:01 It's a calculator. 22:33:11 .... Right 22:33:15 "powered by instacalc". 22:33:19 dotcomr? 22:33:33 Possibly a site for automatically generating more sites named like that. 22:33:40 hah 22:33:54 why this silly trend? 22:34:05 Also loudr isn't listed 22:34:31 Perhaps it's newer than the answer. 22:34:40 Is there DVD video player which can tell you the values of each registers and allow you to manually adjust them? 22:34:47 Some I can't quite guess from the name.

Anyway I guess the only really big difference is how the TCP checksum is calculated 22:52:37 And then the TLD called .usb can be used for connecting to local USB ports on your computer. 22:52:53 Vorpal: Yes, it would proxy it, converting whatever is difference, in best way it can. 22:52:54 I seem to recall someone registered .USB. 22:53:05 zzo38, no that should be a prototocol, like usb+whatever:// 22:53:19 Also I think some of the many IPv6 transition mechanisms do DNS tricks. 22:53:55 Hm 22:53:59 Huh, no applications matching USB. Must've misremembered. 22:54:04 Vorpal: But you still need some kind of IP address, that you can access it using programs that use internet connection. 22:54:11 It shouldn't be a URI scheme 22:54:18 That wouldn't help anyways. 22:55:01 Rather something like "9p://disk.usb/" can be a URL. 22:55:14 They have delegated .xyz already, I see. 22:55:32 fizzie, to what? 22:55:36 gTLD or ccTLD? 22:55:47 gTLD. I don't think there are three-letter ccTLDs. 22:56:01 And to "XYZ.COM, LLC", of course. 22:56:13 "Prior to our domain extension application for .xyz we received interest from visitors who wanted to register .xyz.com subdomains and pay for premium @xyz.com email addresses. The market clearly demanded a new generic top level domain and .xyz was it." 22:56:16 The whole gTLD thing is pretty silly 22:56:17 Clearly. 22:56:31 I take it you're not registering a vorpal.guru domain, then? 22:56:40 fizzie, no not really 22:56:53 There's a http://vim.sexy/ already. 22:56:58 fizzie, I don't own any domain names at all 22:57:05 They allowed .sexy? Heh 22:57:09 Yes it is silly although there are better ways to do it, which they do not do anyways 22:57:33 "Sign up now for a chance to get an early-access invite for Vim today. 22:57:34 Don't make the cut? Guess you aren't ready for a next-level editor experience." 22:57:40 (It's a parody thing.) 22:58:04 fizzie, I think all you need is ccTLDs and some common ones like .com and .org. And .net is way to vague in what qualifies 22:58:52 Also .edu and .gov should go, they shouldn't be US-specific 22:59:04 And .mil? 22:59:07 Or they should be removed entirely 22:59:16 fizzie, oh yeah forgot about that one, same for it obviously 22:59:41 I agree you don't really need any of those new ones like .flickr and so on; it is completely silly. However, things like .ipv4 and .uucp and so on can be useful things to add on. 22:59:56 What on earth is .uucp? 22:59:59 Vorpal: Governments would be country-specific anyways 23:00:22 Vorpal: Access a UUCP address using internet domain names. 23:00:27 Hm 23:00:58 At least there's no application for .onion yet. 23:01:04 That'd so irritate the Tor folks. 23:01:16 Haha 23:02:37 I think they also opted not to allow anyone to register .local. 23:03:14 It should have application for TLDs which are specified as not used with global DNS, or otherwise are reserved or special in some ways other than normal registration of domain names. These would include .local and .onion and .ipv4 for example. 23:03:21 As well as .example and .invalid. 23:03:29 fizzie, oh god that would have been terrible :P 23:04:15 At least .local is codified in a standards-track RFC; .onion probably has no such protection. 23:04:29 Indeedf 23:04:33 Indeed* 23:05:24 That is why such "protected" registrations would be useful, in order to be registered as protected for only that reason and no others, to specify they are not used with normal global DNS. 23:05:34 IANA has a registry for "reserved for special use" domains already; .ipv4 and such could go there. 23:05:47 fizzie: Yes, it should go in there. 23:06:23 It contains just .example, .invalid, .local, .localhost and .test. 23:06:41 .arpa is pretty funny too 23:07:15 (And some non-TLDs: example.{com,net,org} and the special IP address ranges of {in-addr,ip6}.arpa.) 23:09:18 https://eval.in/108854 23:09:28 Also .edu and .gov should go, they shouldn't be US-specific <-- i am not sure .edu actually is, the nvg computer club i'm in had one for a while (nuts.edu) 23:09:43 Wonder how it's going for OpenNIC; at least .free of the new gTLDs conflicts with them. 23:10:17 oerjan, huh 23:10:18 oerjan: It is, nowadays. 23:10:22 OpenNIC's moribund, no? 23:10:30 oerjan: Earlier, they had exceptions. 23:10:49 How's about .mil? 23:11:13 "Only U.S. postsecondary institutions that are institutionally accredited by an agency on the U.S. Department of Education's list of Nationally Recognized Accrediting Agencies (see recognized accrediting bodies) may obtain an Internet name in the .edu domain." (educause.edu) 23:12:08 Though they're letting existing exceptions live on. 23:12:12 "According to the Cooperative Agreement between EDUCAUSE and the U.S. Department of Commerce, all .edu names in existence as of October 29, 2001, are "grandfathered." This means that everyone who already had a .edu name by that date (October 29, 2001), regardless of current or past eligibility requirements, is allowed to keep those .edu names." 23:13:56 night 23:14:02 ok 23:16:29 OpenNIC website has no "news" section or anything else with dates on it, so it's hard to say how dead they are. 23:16:46 78 users on freenode/#opennic, so they're... slightly smaller than #esoteric. 23:16:57 (According to the most objective metric.) 23:27:06 update: scott aaronson declares luboš motl unmasked, then bans him http://www.scottaaronson.com/blog/?p=1720 23:28:12 (now one character less on the blog. i guess sidles's ban should expire soon, though.) 23:29:02 (sidles is like the antithesis of luboš, yet manages to regularly get scott to ban him) 23:29:08 why was sidle banned? :-\ 23:30:31 iirc he ignored scott's claims he was speaking bullshit 23:30:38 (vaguely) 23:31:22 oh, motl even stopped doing research? 23:32:11 if luboš motl can never admit anything positive, john sidles can never admit anything _negative_ is my impression. 23:33:12 As a Platonist, 23:34:03 calling someone a retard three sentences before calling someone out for needlessly offending is a rather amusing irony 23:34:12 ... you like to leave people hanging 23:35:06 that is correct. 23:35:31 elliott: yeah :/ 23:35:51 um which one of them said that 23:36:02 aaronson, in the post you linked 23:36:09 oerjan: oh, sidles is that guy who comments on that other guy's blog. 23:36:10 ok 23:36:39 the P=NP guy. 23:36:41 he called motl a "social retard", see 23:36:42 elliott: you mean gödel's letter? i'm not there any more but he used to be. 23:37:05 oerjan: did it jump the shark? 23:37:09 (and yes) 23:37:33 not really, but i got too damned annoyed by the comment system 23:38:02 the rss kept cutting off at 10-20 comments, no matter how much activity there was 23:39:38 somehow it feels worse to have a comment overview that keeps losing comments than having no overview at all 23:39:50 what's it like wanting to read comments 23:40:51 Bike: both that blog and aaronson's have a rather higher comment standard than you may be used to. 23:41:08 yeah, i know aaronson's does at least. it's still weird 23:41:11 2 me 23:42:30 Well, you know what they say about /.: we read it for the comments. 23:42:30 Warrigal isn't here? 23:42:54 hm what nick does he go by nowadays 23:42:55 This explanation of why P probably != NP seems like approaching math from a scientific rather than mathematical angle 23:43:08 I know Warrigal commented on something like that once 23:43:48 does that mean we're pouring calcium carbonate all over the graph isomorphism, or 23:44:11 Sgeo: yes, it was meant to counter luboš's claim that there was no evidence for or against, even by scientific standards, or something like that 23:44:39 Bike: in terms of hypotheses and sufficient evidence rather than rigid proofs 23:45:06 so that's a yes 23:48:01 "If there is no proof that means that there is no reason a-priori to prefer your arguments" lol 23:48:26 i should start a campaign of showing mathematicians how flimsy everything in science world is. blow your damn minds 23:49:35 lubos is a physicist. 23:50:06 well the quote was from an astronomer, so there 23:51:07 honestly i just think scientists are really bad at philosophy 23:51:38 I know that science is not perfect like mathematics is. But it is the best way we can 23:52:06 as a platonist 23:53:34 Are you platonist? 23:54:02 no 23:54:45 Then, what are you? 23:54:52 ooh hey this post mentions Impagliazzo 23:55:30 -!- nooodl has quit (Quit: Ik ga weg). 23:55:33 i forget the term. psychologism-ist or suchlike 23:55:53 What does "psychologism-ist" mean? 23:56:35 http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Psychologism 23:57:05 wait. the shachaf is within me. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Psychologism 23:58:00 this post is pretty neat oerjan. 23:58:17 i stopped reading aaronson a while back but i guess i should start again
