00:00:25 <oerjan> i guess i played a couple MUDs, and that's about all of rpg-like things. (excluding a game for Oric-1 called Zodiac, which i never got very far in.)

00:05:57 <oerjan> the chances of getting deeper into gaming diminished sharply after my hands started aching back in 2003 or thereabouts.
00:06:51 <Phantom_Hoover> i feel like there are genres of game that you can play fine even with that
00:07:11 <Phantom_Hoover> like there are strategy games which require about the same level of mouse use as just web browsing
00:08:14 <oerjan> i don't use a mouse these days, but a trackpad. also, i can ache simply from typing if i do it long enough.
00:08:47 <Phantom_Hoover> trackpad, mouse, if you can click buttons on a screen it works out the same
00:09:15 <oerjan> well i'm just not sure how different they are for the hands.

00:32:21 <shachaf> did you hear about how unary nfa universality is conp-complete (scow)
00:32:24 <quintopia> ...i would never have thought to pronounce shachaf with a uvular fricative
00:32:26 <oerjan> (that's the inflection, not the fricatives)
00:32:27 <quintopia> now i'm going to
00:32:33 <oerjan> shachaf: yes.
00:32:37 <shachaf> That's the official pronunciation.
00:32:45 <shachaf> oerjan: Yes what?
00:33:04 <oerjan> shachaf: i saw int-e point out that's an equivalent formulation
00:33:28 <oerjan> quintopia: you could sabotage it by pronouncing the "sh" as one instead

00:34:09 <quintopia> oh
00:34:12 <oerjan> oh, and btw, the stress is apparently on the first syllable, which was opposite of my initial assumption.
00:34:32 <shachaf> Your initial assumption was that it's on the other two?
00:34:44 <quintopia> i've never thought of emphasizing the second syllable--now i'm going to
00:35:33 <quintopia> new unofficial quintopia pronunciation: "zhach AS fuck"
00:35:59 <oerjan> quintopia: that would be "for ryming purposes t t", i think, since it would break my script.
00:36:05 <int-e> that makes me feel better about "schaf" ( https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Schafe )
00:36:14 <int-e> oerjan: what awful pun didn't you make
00:36:34 <int-e> oerjan: I mean there was a bunch of bad puns anyway
00:36:38 <lynn> My pronunciation advice: say "shachaf-chan" but pronounce "shachaf" all wrong but make the ch in "chan" is a uvular fricative
00:37:00 <quintopia> CHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAANNNN!!!!!~~~~~
00:37:02 <fizzie> lynn: We just mangle them in the way that sounds least bad.
00:37:42 <oerjan> moon_: using shuf -n 1 maybe?
00:37:50 <oerjan> (as an ingredient.)
00:38:09 <fizzie> So it would likely be "EFnetissä", "Dalnetissa".
00:38:13 <quintopia> oerjan: i think maybe they were asking about the giant nested if statement, and possible replacements for it?

00:38:38 <oerjan> moon_: oh and -e looks useful too
00:38:51 <fizzie> And if someone is impolite enough to put vowel harmony mismatch already in the original word, we'd probably just get all confused.

01:16:11 <shachaf> oerjan: Last I tried I can't distinguish velar and uvular fricatives.

01:17:30 <oerjan> shachaf: yes, but i was thinking of something i wanted to check
01:19:23 <shachaf> oerjan: Anyway those are voiced fricatives.
01:19:28 <shachaf> Of course the one in my name is unvoiced.
01:19:38 <oerjan> i figured.
01:22:00 <oerjan> apparently it's been discussed https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:Modern_Hebrew_phonology#Uvular_Fricative
01:22:55 <oerjan> "Perhaps they are supposed to be uvular, but this article is about what they actually are, which is velar in 80% of speakers according to Dekel (2014), who performed a statistical study to answer exactly this question."
01:23:14 <shachaf> I'm not actually sure what a velar fricative is.
01:23:39 <oerjan> shachaf: well it depends on where in your mouth your tongue is blocking...
01:23:39 <shachaf> I know what a uvula is.
01:23:49 <shachaf> But do I even have a vela?
01:24:16 <oerjan> well g and k are velar stops afaik
01:25:58 <oerjan> velum=soft palate, supposedly
01:26:26 <oerjan> although that's a pretty big region, isn't it.

01:45:20 <oerjan> a small h sound at the end, essentially. english has it, except after s.
01:45:34 <oerjan> (as does norwegian.)
01:46:31 <oerjan> germanic languages tend to have aspirated unvoiced plosives, romance languages tend not to afaik.
01:46:48 <oerjan> and i've read somewhere that semitic languages can have aspiration...

02:39:17 <alercah> but for what it's worth, I learned them as epsilon
02:39:28 <shachaf> zzo38: I never heard "lambda".
02:40:34 <shachaf> Haskell calls it \&
02:40:40 <zzo38> The book that is calling them lambda transitions is from 1988
02:41:02 <shachaf> Oh, I don't believe in books that were written before I was born.
02:41:19 <oerjan> anyway, because freenode resets the times on the ban list, and also adds new ones at either end, i'm pretty confused about which bans are old enough that they're safe to remove.
02:41:30 <shachaf> Why not generalize NFAs further?
02:41:42 <shachaf> If you allow epsilon transitions, why not allow transitions to be labeled with arbitrary strings?
02:43:09 <zzo38> That would be possible to do too yes, and then you can easily convert into the one that only allows up to one symbol.
02:43:12 <zzo38> (I think)
02:43:38 <oerjan> you can label them with arbitrary regexes hth
02:44:06 <zzo38> Yes you can do that too and then convert them.
02:44:09 <oerjan> also, the atoms of the regexes can be NFAs
02:44:23 <oerjan> and then you can add some turtles to taste
02:49:57 <zzo38> DFA can sometimes have many more states than the corresponding NFA. However DFA can also be made minimized. What will it be if a NFA has these restrictions: [1] A state can have no more than one epsilon transition leading out. [2] A state can have no more than one epsilon transition leading in. [3] It is not allowed to form a loop entirely of epsilon transitions.
02:51:00 <shachaf> What do you mean, what will it be?
02:54:16 <alercah> you can eliminate epsilon-transitions though
02:54:33 <shachaf> Right.
02:54:49 <shachaf> You can eliminate arbitrary string transitions, too.

07:02:56 <zzo38> I intend to make the FreeUHS "print" program to support an option to tell it what specials (if any) to use to tell it to select or deselect invisible ink, so that if this option is used, then you can print the contents of the hints in invisible ink.
07:04:01 <zzo38> (Such a program can be implemented even if no such thing currently exists, because when it does exist, then that option can be used.)

07:19:59 <pikhq> [ctcp-for-yell]: If you're applying 2.5v on a *pair*, rather than individual parts of the pair? Not much.
07:20:03 -!- Sgeo has quit (Ping timeout: 240 seconds).
07:21:11 <pikhq> A similar (but fairly carefully specified) scheme is used in Power over Ethernet.
07:21:44 <[ctcp-for-yell]> would 2.5v ac do damage?
07:21:55 <pikhq> 2.5V AC would probably ruin the signal.
07:22:24 <[ctcp-for-yell]> 120v ac?
07:24:11 <pikhq> 120V AC would likely ruin the signal, possibly the cable as well, and might ruin the opto-isolator in the Ethernet switch.
07:24:37 <[ctcp-for-yell]> I was hoping it'd start it on fire :
07:24:54 <[ctcp-for-yell]> ok, neon transformer hooked to it lol
07:25:04 <pikhq> (though I *think* the opto-isolator is actually rated for a couple kV?)
07:25:15 <pikhq> Arc through the insulation on the cable.
07:25:31 <[ctcp-for-yell]> Ruin everythin
07:25:35 <[ctcp-for-yell]> ?
07:25:51 <pikhq> Wouldn't even reach the switch, it'd be arcing pretty close to where you hook the cable up.
07:26:52 <pikhq> If you want to have a good guarantee of destroying a switch you'd need to basically connect all of its contacts up to a Tesla coil or a beefy capacitor bank or something.
07:27:12 <[ctcp-for-yell]> Someone already said that in ##chat
07:28:42 <pikhq> One of the nice things about Ethernet is it's designed to be pretty robust to people screwing it up, from a physical or electrical point-of-view...
07:29:04 <pikhq> Your most likely failure cases are just gonna make the network stop working, not cause lasting damage to equipment on the network.

08:30:51 <hppavilion[1]> I'm not sure whether Trump's wikipedia article (see: http://loser.com/) is biased
08:30:57 <hppavilion[1]> I feel like it is, but then again, I'm biased
08:31:17 <hppavilion[1]> "Trump is a strong proponent of law and order. He has suggested a temporary suspension of immigration to the United States from nations having a "proven history" of terrorism against the U.S. until more precise vetting techniques can be put in place to screen out potential terrorists; he also believes that the quick defeat of ISIS is mandatory."
08:31:32 <hppavilion[1]> It's a little incorrect, because it's not so much nations with that history as it is muslims

13:44:59 <ybden> Oh, that
13:45:02 <ybden> hehe
13:45:59 <alercah> I think I want a new terminal emulator
13:46:15 <alercah> urxvt is okay but configuring it is literally the worst
13:46:51 <b_jonas> alercah: what? what's so hard in configuring it? I just have a script that starts it with the right command-line arguments and it works that way
13:47:09 <b_jonas> (except for that one mysterious bug that took days to debug, but that was ages ago)
13:51:48 <alercah> b_jonas: setting e.g. the font requires arcane invocations in .Xresources
13:51:54 <alercah> and it *sucks* at fonts
13:52:19 <alercah> it can't render the font I like correctly at the size I like
13:52:31 <alercah> and in general it sucks at picking font sizes
13:55:30 <b_jonas> alercah: no, I don't need to put anything in X resources
13:55:43 <b_jonas> unlike with xterm, I can give ANY setting in the command line for urxvt
13:55:50 <b_jonas> (or any setting in xresources if you prefer that)
13:56:32 <b_jonas> I put everything in the command line, but putting everything in xresources and perhaps just putting a -name in the command line to choose from multiple configs could work just as well
13:57:46 <alercah> fair enough, still doesn't solve the problem that a) the configs are arcane b) font config just doesn't work period
13:58:10 <feliks> alercah: how does it 'not work'?
13:58:46 <alercah> feliks: with the font I'm using for instance
13:58:57 <alercah> height 12 pixels is the same as height 13 pixels, which is too small
13:59:07 <alercah> height 14 pixels is good, but underscores don't render
13:59:13 <alercah> height 15 pixels is too big
13:59:40 <feliks> what do you use for font rendering?
13:59:49 <alercah> urxvt...
14:00:12 <feliks> no i mean systems wide. you're not into infinality are you?
14:00:31 <alercah> I'm doing nothing special
14:00:56 <feliks> what font are you using then?
14:01:01 <alercah> Droid Sans Mono
14:01:28 <feliks> what a coincidence :)
14:01:51 <feliks> how does your .Xresources/.Xdefaults line look like?
14:02:56 <feliks> you could try:
14:03:05 <feliks> URxvt.font: xft:Droid Sans Mono:pixelsize=13:antialias=true:hinting=true
14:04:06 <alercah> also dynamic reconfiguration of settings is the *worst*
14:04:22 <alercah> now it's even smaller O_o
14:05:09 <alercah> if I set it to 14, it's back to the correct size but underscores are still invisible
14:05:36 <feliks> so is that what you wanted?
14:05:39 <alercah> no
14:05:49 <alercah> I want the size it's currently at with underscores actually rendering
14:05:55 <alercah> which appears to be too much to ask
14:06:48 <alercah> I also consider the fact that the only way to dynamically change a setting, near as I can tell, is to bind a keyboard shortcut to a command to do so to be a major anti-feature

14:17:56 <izabera> why is O_DIRECTORY there?
14:27:14 <izabera> i see, the pathname must specify a directory
14:27:20 <izabera> so i guess glibc is adding that

22:18:25 <moon___> im trying to write a experiement that connects to DOS 6.22 :P
22:18:30 <wob_jonas> moon__: sure
22:18:33 <moon___> Using the virtualbox Serial
22:18:50 <wob_jonas> I won't start it up now, but I can answer questions
22:18:54 <moon___> ik
22:19:24 <moon___> how'd you connect it to the Bot, and what language (the language is just so i can judge how hard it would be in js, which im using)
22:20:33 <wob_jonas> moon__: I connect to the virtual machine's serial connection, which DOS lets you use as the terminal for all programs that access stdin and stdout.
22:21:21 <wob_jonas> The bochs emulator exposes this serial terminal by connecting it to... I don't quite remember, probably the master side of a pty terminal?
22:21:33 <moon___> and how did you set up the serial connection? i know that DOS can use ctty to connect to COM
22:22:31 <wob_jonas> Yes, I used the ctty command to redirect stdin and stdout and stderr there, and I used a command-line program from norton utilities to set the parameters of the serial connection from DOS, although I think you can also use DOS's MODE COM command for that
22:22:59 <wob_jonas> The mode matters only partly, because I think bochs actually lets data through it faster than a real serial terminal hardware would permit.
22:23:20 <wob_jonas> So the mode might actually be mostly ignored, except perhaps the number of bits per character.
22:23:58 <wob_jonas> let me see http://bochs.sourceforge.net/cgi-bin/topper.pl?name=New+Bochs+Documentation&url=http://bochs.sourceforge.net/doc/docbook
22:24:05 <moon___> im using virtualbox >_>
22:24:11 <moon___> Hmm
22:24:15 <moon___> Ill figure it out eventually
22:24:18 <wob_jonas> I'm not sure which mode I used, the socket or the pty
22:24:23 <wob_jonas> probably the socket, that's easier to set up
22:24:34 <wob_jonas> moon__: I think virtualbox can also expose the serial terminal to you somehow
22:25:24 <wob_jonas> no, I must have used the pty mode
22:27:56 <wob_jonas> no, checking the source code, it turns out I actually used the socket mode
22:28:56 <moon___> hmm, virtualbox doesnt like me with sockets
22:29:31 <wob_jonas> but don't take this as good practice
22:29:39 <wob_jonas> my script is old and half-broken anyway

22:29:59 <moon___> the port im using is closed, to prevent possible, well, unmonitered dos invasions :P

23:17:03 <moon___> wob_jonas: a single DOS image would work on multiple platforms for bochs, right?
23:17:19 <moon___> if so, can i have a copy of your DOS image? im too lazy to make one on windows :P
23:20:35 <wob_jonas> moon__: what do you mean multiple platforms?
23:21:19 <wob_jonas> I won't give you the whole DOS image, it has a whole lot of various software with unclear copyright status. I can give you parts of it if you want.
23:21:22 -!- byteflame has quit (Ping timeout: 244 seconds).
23:21:58 <moon___> i only need the boot
23:22:00 <moon___> :P
23:22:05 <wob_jonas> that's easier
23:22:25 <moon___> oh wait dont i need a config too? lol, ill adjust it as needed
23:23:06 <wob_jonas> let me see
23:23:55 <moon___> Hey, why is the word 'Refrigerator' in the topic?
23:24:37 -!- `^_^v has quit (Quit: This computer has gone to sleep).
23:24:49 <wob_jonas> moon__: please wait a minute
23:24:53 <wob_jonas> or five minutes
23:25:15 <moon___> kk
23:25:23 <moon___> I can wait all day :P

23:32:55 <wob_jonas> moon__: can you give an email address (in private message) I can send it to?
23:33:17 <wob_jonas> I'll send you my fancy full-featured dos boot floppy, which I used a lot
23:34:19 <wob_jonas> it still has a lot of software with unclear copyright status (including some of norton utilities and norton commander, some of turbo pascal, some of DOS itself, etc), but it's at least less than the whole image
23:34:28 <boily> mhelloon__, wellob_jellonas.
23:34:42 <moon___> If someone pops up to cause issues, i can remove it
23:34:53 <wob_jonas> pity it doesn't have the one useful utility on the image of which the copyright status is clear, my DOS version of the joe editor, whcih I can give separately if you want
23:34:54 <moon___> Obviously (;
23:35:12 <moon___> Please do :P

23:47:01 <moon___> pc decided to die on me
23:47:13 <izabera> RIP
23:48:10 <moon___> :P
23:54:57 <moon___> wob_jonas: im impatient, is it uploading?
23:56:04 <wob_jonas> moon__: sending it now
23:56:08 <wob_jonas> I was just writing an editor
23:56:10 <wob_jonas> um
23:56:13 <wob_jonas> writing a description
23:56:21 <wob_jonas> if you need the joe-editor, I can send that separately
23:56:30 <wob_jonas> although it's hard to use because my config file for DOS is crap
23:57:39 <moon___> does it work for noninteractive, thats my big question (Yup, doing a thing)
23:57:52 -!- hppavilion[1] has quit (Ping timeout: 240 seconds).
23:58:05 <wob_jonas> moon__: not alone, you'll need more of DOS to set up that
23:58:11 <wob_jonas> moon__: like, you need ctty probably
23:58:16 <wob_jonas> this mostly has interactive utilities
23:58:39 <moon___> doesnt DOS have ctty by default?
23:59:22 <moon___> also, why did you never writeprotect the boot drive?
23:59:31 <moon___> on your bot
23:59:39 <wob_jonas> moon__: so that you can tinker with it
23:59:40 <moon___> remember we formatted C:\?
23:59:43 <wob_jonas> I can restore it easily
23:59:59 <wob_jonas> come on, the whole purpose of the bot was to be a sandbox you can break
