00:12 <@chrism> i.e., starting off with 12 pounds of grains, ending up with beer
00:13 <@chrism> cheap as shit, insane control over the recipes, and removes some of the "off" flavors w/ using the kits
00:15 <+sampson> i got some killer jungle juice recipes
00:15 <+sampson> i got one i call the panty droppin face smashin blast
00:30 <iRabbit> awesome winter drink that will put you on your ass..... equal parts... Jamison, Frangelico, and Bailey's....tastes like Ovaltine

09:57 <+scofflaw> and a whole bunch of assholes speaking english loudly :(
09:58 <SidWork> What are I need head phones alex?

09:58 <+scofflaw> i know, i know.. i have my bose headphones next to me
09:58 <+scofflaw> i just wanted to complain
09:58 <SidWork> I have some blue tooth Motorolla rockers next to me
09:58 <SidWork> i stream pandora when the shit here gets to think
09:58 <SidWork> thick even
09:59 <+scofflaw> word
09:59 <+scofflaw> i have some bose things
09:59 <+scofflaw> sound proof jammies.. but i'm so tired of my itunes collection. i should probably stream some bs
09:59 <+scofflaw> but i'm a hater
09:59 <+scofflaw> hard to find radio i like
10:00 <SidWork> A friend of a my wifes dropped off her computer and wants me to fix the darn thing. i guess i need to move her itunes stuff.. never touched itunes so this should be fun.
10:00 <+scofflaw> look for porn
10:01 <+scofflaw> then send to me
10:01 <SidWork> I like latin and asian porn myself..
10:01 <SidWork> germans are to vulgar..
10:01 <SidWork> english to boring
10:03 <+scofflaw> so she will have some good shit then
10:03 <+Volatile> Deutsche Bank estimates MMI has
10:03 <+Volatile> sold only 100,000 Xoom tablets so far, compared with 300,000 iPads sold on the
10:03 <+Volatile> first day it was available a year ago.
10:03 <+scofflaw> hopefully GGG quality
10:05 <SidWork> I hate to admit it.. I bought a xoom
10:05 <+scofflaw> fag
10:05 <SidWork> I still think its better hardware however.. they need to write more stuff for the tablet.
10:05 <+Volatile> what a selfish asshole
10:06 <SidWork> I know..
10:06 <+Volatile> instead of helping my financial future, by purchasing an iPad, he buys a Xoom
10:06 <+Volatile> ..
10:06 <SidWork> What was I fucken thinking
10:06 <SidWork> I am chatting with you on my macbook pro
10:06 <SidWork> so I did sorta help you out..

10:55 <@chrism> def. just went all 'sperge on a bug
10:55 <@chrism> some dev thought it'd be a good idea to start introducint "error codes" instead of saying what was broken
10:56 <@chrism> "Suggested fix, put what's actually broken, not an irrelevant error code. Alternative fix, create http://kb.cpanel.net/ so we could we could be like microsoft"
11:01 <+sampson> don't get vertex

11:18 <@chrism> like i just dont' fucking get it
11:18 <+sampson> holy fuck is he a fucktard

11:19 <+sampson> and were like holy balls this is terrible
11:19 <+sampson> one guy wrote this thing you drop in place of his code and it improves speed like 1000%

11:24 <+Volatile> first problem with minecraft: written in java
11:24 <+Volatile> second problem with minecraft: server written in java
11:24 <+Volatile> heh
11:24 <@chrism> wtf would you do that?
11:25 <+Volatile> what?
11:25 <+sampson> third problem with minecraft: notch doesn't get game coding
11:25 <+sampson> i'm not going to pretend i'm some super programming wizard
11:25 <+sampson> but the examples people gave of his shit code are fucking sad
11:25 <tronyx> it's minecraft, not fucking Crysis 2
11:26 <+sampson> tronyx: regardless, it's fucking atrocious
11:26 <+sampson> and server-side it's even worse
11:26 <tronyx> it doesn't need to be written in C C++, you could write it in JS
11:26 <+sampson> and actually
11:26 <+Volatile> tronyx, have you ever run the server?
11:26 <+sampson> because of how his shit is coded it *barely* runs on a core2duo
11:26 <+Volatile> it eats like 100% CPU with 2 players on it
11:26 <+sampson> and you need at least a 8800GT
11:26 <tronyx> nope
11:26 <+sampson> Volatile: and a couple GB of ram
11:26 <tronyx> idk, i feel like shit code is shit code
11:26 <+sampson> but teh thing is people have written shit that fixes his crap
11:26 <+sampson> and he refuses to implement it
11:27 <@chrism> why?
11:27 <+sampson> and he says shit like "NOT POSSIBLE TO DO COLORED LIGHTS"
11:27 <+sampson> *someone does it*
11:27 <+Volatile> he probably cant afford the time to audit it, or learn their code.
11:27 <+sampson> it's not really that, he's just a prideful dumbass
11:27 <+Volatile> if you've ever worked on a GPL project, when someone dumps 1000 new lines of code on you
11:27 <+Volatile> you hafta audit the code
11:27 <+Volatile> test everything
11:27 <+sampson> also
11:27 <+Volatile> learn what they've done just by the sparse comments provided
11:27 <+Volatile> etc
11:27 <+sampson> anyone can upload skins for their players
11:27 <+sampson> actually
11:27 <+sampson> i shouldn't comment on that
11:27 <+sampson> NEVERMIND
11:27 <+Volatile> i'd be pretty prideful if i sold 100k+ copies of a beta
11:28 <+sampson> http://28.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lhlk2uTbQJ1qemdfvo1_500.jpg
11:28 <+Volatile> hahaha
11:29 <+Volatile> nice
11:30 ..: jeffm [~jeff.m@75-136-97-17.dhcp.spbg.sc.charter.com] has joined #chicago
11:30 <+Volatile> it'd be fun to write exploits for minecraft's server
11:30 <+Volatile> or just plain DoS attacks
11:30 <+Volatile> ;P
11:30 <+Volatile> i bet it'd be pretty fucking easy
11:31 <+Volatile> considering two players signing into the game eats 100% CPU on the beta server
11:31 <+sampson> dude
11:31 <+sampson> you can modify the client
11:31 <+sampson> and it will crash servers
11:33 <+Volatile> oh
11:33 <+Volatile> well
11:33 <+Volatile> nm then.
11:33 <+Volatile> that, and he's documented the entire protocol in a Wiki
11:34 <+Volatile> i guess it's not his aim to protect the server
11:42 <SidWork> Ticket: My outlook email folder subdirectories do not stay in alphabetical order.
11:42 <SidWork> FML!!!

12:22 <+sampson> i'd rather quit

14:19 <+Volatile> The cousins and at least two other teens were reportedly smoking marijuana, drinking, and playing the game when an argument started over whose turn it was to play. The argument ended with Flores shot in the head at close range.

14:20 <+Volatile> if they had bought a good game, instead of spending the cash on a gun, this never would have happened

16:22 <@chrism> hahah
16:23 <@chrism> you totally could too
16:24 <+Volatile> when i visited my brother in boston, he was telling me how much reddit pisses him off
16:24 <+Volatile> caught him responding to some "factual" stories with corrections
16:24 <@chrism> hahaha
16:25 <@chrism> ya know i really just need to quit fucking w/ reddit
16:25 <@chrism> but jesus that shit's addictive
16:25 <+Volatile> he's a theoretical physicist, and one of his biggest pet peeves is people who re-quote all the garbage on TLC and Discovery
16:25 <+Volatile> he especially hates it when TLC/Discovery air things that say "scientists dont fully understand X"
16:25 <+Volatile> and his response is usually: "yes, yes we do."
16:25 <@chrism> hahah
16:26 <@chrism> and he probably gets downvoted for it
16:26 <@chrism> then raaaaaage
16:26 <@chrism> lol
16:26 <+Volatile> i saw a thread where someone had said we didn't understand the atom fully
16:26 <+Volatile> and he posted some quick reply that we did
16:26 <+Volatile> which ended up in a huge mess of people arguing with him
16:26 <@chrism> hahaha
16:26 <+Volatile> heh
16:26 <@chrism> yeah that sounds about right
16:26 <+Volatile> none of them were scientists
16:26 <@chrism> $stupid_fucking_statement
16:27 <+Volatile> but they all knew we dont know shit about the atm
16:27 <+Volatile> atom
16:27 <+Volatile> he's pretty interesting to talk to over beers
16:27 <+Volatile> heh
16:27 <@chrism> and then you reply back with "Nah that's just not how shit works" and they're like "YOU NEED TO SITE SOURCES AND PROVE THIS STATEMENT"
16:27 <@chrism> "No, your fucking high school should have taught you this shit"
16:27 <+Volatile> yeah, pretty much
16:27 <@chrism> There's def. been a few of those
16:27 <+Volatile> it's like arguing with someone the sky is blue because of blue shift, and not because it's reflecting the ocean
16:28 <@chrism> haha
16:28 <+Volatile> (which ironically, is also blue because of blue shift)
16:28 <@chrism> BUT IF YOU GO UP IN A PLANE, AND TRAVEL FAST, IT WOULD REDSHIFT IF THAT WERE TRUE
16:28 <@chrism> W-hat
16:28 <+Volatile> haha
16:29 <+Volatile> my brother's old car had a bumper sticker on it that read: If this sticker appears red, you're driving too fast
16:29 <@chrism> hahahah
16:29 <@chrism> awesome
16:29 <@chrism> I learned about redshift from stargate
16:29 <@chrism> =\
16:29 <@chrism> SG-1
16:29 <@chrism> lol
16:29 <+Volatile> heh
16:29 <@chrism> and then that prompted me to go on a reading spree where i learned a ton of shit about theoretical physics, but mostly armchair shit, obviously
16:29 <@chrism> and then i smoked a lot of weed
16:29 <@chrism> and here we are
16:30 <+Volatile> heh
16:30 <+Volatile> i had the dumb idea of asking my brother about the makeup of protons
16:30 <+Volatile> and i was lost after he said "well, they're made up of"
16:30 <+Volatile> he starts talking about quarks
16:30 <+Volatile> and what quarks are made up
16:30 <+Volatile> of
16:31 <@chrism> subatomic shit gets crazy
16:31 <@chrism> and JUST when we think we figured it out, we find something smaller
16:31 <@chrism> hehe
16:31 <@chrism> and it's like 'FFFFFUUUUUUUUUU'
16:31 <@chrism> it's cool though
16:31 <+Volatile> i had consumed probably three or four beers during this lunch/convo
16:32 <+Volatile> but at some point i asked him something like: do we know what the smallest particle is
16:32 <+Volatile> and he pmuch said yeah
16:32 <+Volatile> and all the stuff at the collider is working on getting some concept of how they exist, etc
16:41 <+Volatile> Responding to a question on a Reddit "ask me anything" thread, Minecraft creator Markus Persson said that his mega-popular indie brainchild has already earned $33 million dollars in revenue from over 1.8 million paid downloads. Via [Gamasutra] More »
16:42 <+Volatile> now he just needs to finish the project and release it, so he can retire.
16:42 <@scrim> heh
16:42 <@scrim> i'll counter that they only know the smallest particle detectable by their current gear
16:42 <@chrism> fuck finishing, just retire
16:42 <@chrism> IT'S DONE
16:42 <@chrism> SOLD
16:42 <@scrim> and they might some day find another smaller thign
16:43 <+Volatile> scrim
16:43 <+Volatile> just one question
16:43 <+Volatile> have you studied particle physics?
16:43 * chrism gets popcorn
16:43 <+Volatile> i'm already typing: thought so
16:43 <+Volatile> heh
16:44 <@scrim> i've read about it, but no, i have no degree in physics, particle or otherwise
16:44 <@chrism> now there have been a few times that we've said "AS SMALL AS WE CAN GO, RIGHT HERE YO!"
16:44 <@chrism> and then we invent some new tech to detect something smaller
16:44 <@chrism> and revise
16:44 <@scrim> that is my point, i could also be wrong, they could really find the thing
16:44 <@chrism> however, that's not always going to be true, it has to cease at some point
16:45 <@scrim> if newton and einstien can be wrong, so can that guy :)
16:45 <+Volatile> i cant recall all the conversation- i was drinking after all, but his point was that they may not know what to call it, or how it works, but that they believe they have identified the 'base'
16:45 <@scrim> none of us may live to see it
16:45 <@scrim> just saying it's possible :)
16:45 <+Volatile> sure
16:45 <+Volatile> i agree
16:45 <@scrim> that's all, i'm not calling your physicist friend a liar or a fool
16:46 <+Volatile> he isn't really studying that subject right now anyway
16:46 <@scrim> what they're doing is the only way to progress
16:46 <+Volatile> right now he tortures crabs for a living
16:46 <@scrim> hah
16:46 <@chrism> lol what?
16:46 <+Volatile> scrim, he's my brother
16:46 <+Volatile> yes
16:46 <+Volatile> they torture crabs
16:46 <@chrism> why?
16:46 <@scrim> ah
16:46 <@chrism> not tasty enough?
16:46 <+Volatile> cut open shell above brain area
16:46 <+Volatile> attach stuffs
16:46 <+Volatile> tear legs off slowly
16:46 <+Volatile> causing intense pain
16:46 <+Volatile> until the creature dies
16:46 <+Volatile> (save the leftovers)
16:46 <@scrim> they study crabs, they do not beat them with a stick for the fuck of it
16:47 <+Volatile> they arent studying crabs
16:47 <+Volatile> they're studying neural networks
16:47 <@scrim> they are studying neural transmiters or somethign?
16:47 <@scrim> yeah ok
16:47 <+Volatile> yep
16:47 <+Volatile> best way to map them is to have them all light up
16:47 <@scrim> just saying, torture would indicate they're just mean assholes :)
16:47 <+Volatile> best way to light them up, is to kill the creature
16:47 <+Volatile> well
16:47 <+Volatile> his defense to that, is that they put the crabs in an ice bath
16:48 <+Volatile> they're supposedly 'numb'
16:48 <+Volatile> on the brink of hypothermic death
16:48 <+Volatile> course, the crabs you ate didn't get that ice bath
16:48 <+Volatile> straight into boiling water
16:48 <+Volatile> heh
16:50 <@scrim> yeah
16:50 <@scrim> it's not like any crab once possessed by a human has a good fate waiting it :)
16:50 <+Volatile> they aren't killing hundreds of crabs or anything
16:50 <+Volatile> just a few here and there
16:51 <+Volatile> much of their time is spent on math models, etc
16:51 <+Volatile> my brother's role, specifically, is to generate those models
16:51 <@scrim> neat
16:51 <@chrism> so uh, your bro is a theoretical physicist
16:51 <@chrism> what happened to you?
16:51 <+Volatile> i wanted to make money
16:51 <+Volatile> he wanted to learn about startrek
16:51 <@chrism> good answer
16:51 <+Volatile> i never liked star trek
16:51 <@chrism> ANSWER DEEMED WORTHY
16:51 <+Volatile> heh
16:52 <+Volatile> granted, he can do cool tings like calculate the average splatter radius of a nun falling from a building
16:52 <+Volatile> ..and he made a 3D wireframe flight sim when he was 15
16:52 <+Volatile> (fucker)
16:52 <@chrism> hahaha
16:52 <@chrism> nice
16:52 <@scrim> ahah
16:53 <+Volatile> while he was learning, i was beating the fuck out of him with dangerous objects
16:53 <@scrim> average splatter radius of a nun
16:53 <+Volatile> heh
16:53 <@scrim> that formula would make a good teeshirt :)
16:53 <+Volatile> hah
16:53 <+Volatile> supposedly it's something he did in class once
16:53 <@scrim> yeah becky got one once like "how far away can a drug dog smell your weed" in class
16:53 <@scrim> which I thought was fununy
16:53 <@scrim> funny
16:53 <+Volatile> haha
16:54 <@scrim> they actually we able to solve it :)
16:54 <+Volatile> yeah.. im sure there's plenty of "give" in the calculation
16:54 <+Volatile> ..but the excersize is the point
16:54 <@scrim> yeah
16:54 <@scrim> yes
16:54 <+Volatile> im sure they aren't calculating wind friction and such
16:54 <@scrim> it was calulating dispersion in air
16:55 <+Volatile> oh
16:55 <+Volatile> haha
16:55 <+Volatile> werd.
16:55 <@scrim> like dog can detect X ppm of weed
16:55 <@scrim> did the dog smell your weed or just bark at random?
16:55 <+Volatile> yeah, iu really dont know the extent of the nun calculation.. im sure it was just some volume of some viscous liquid seperating out at some impact vector, blahblah
16:55 ..: SidWork [~Sid@m8f0736d0.tmodns.net] has quit [Quit: Leaving]
16:55 <@scrim> yeah but it's still funny :)
16:55 <+Volatile> yah
16:56 <+Volatile> you ever read the story of the duke nukem 3d engine?
16:56 <+Volatile> speaking of calculations by youngsters
16:56 <+Volatile> the "guy" who wrote the engine was 17
16:57 <+Volatile> and not some genius or anything.. just saw wolf3d, and told his brother he could write a similar engine if he had to
16:57 <+Volatile> couple years later, he had something called the BuildEngine or something similar
16:57 <+Volatile> Apogee wanted to buy it.. ended up signing with Epic
16:57 <+Volatile> who released 12 or so games with the engine
16:58 <+Volatile> got his lighting ideas from john carmack.. who told him about the "sector" idea while doom was still in production
16:59 <+Volatile> he wrote the first version of the engine in basic
16:59 <+Volatile> heh
17:04 <+Volatile> haha
17:04 <+Volatile> i just started an email that begins with:
17:04 <+Volatile> Jesus,
17:04 <+Volatile> feels like im typing a confession
17:04 <+Volatile> (and i am)
17:04 <+Volatile> heh
17:04 <+Volatile> "didnt get the shit you wanted done, my bad, brah"
17:05 <billay> I AM EPIC WIN
17:06 <+Volatile> yah?
17:06 <+Volatile> r u rich today?
17:08 <billay> negative
17:10 <+Volatile> one of our long-term support customers just asked me for a quote for hardware. after years of weathering silly hardware outages that could have been prevented with like $500 in redundancy
17:10 <+Volatile> ..they ask me for a quote, after notifying me they're purhcasing a $10,000.00 enclosure
17:10 <+Volatile> so im just like: uhh.. did you just blow all your cash on an enclosure?
17:10 <+Volatile> heh
