02:39 <Schism> Ah, nVidia drivers for Linux installations.

02:39 <Cepheid> This morning, I wake up on time.  Can't find keys for 30 minutes.  Leave to bus stop.  Get there, I find I forgot my bus pass.

02:39 <Schism> Gaaah.

02:39 <Cepheid> So I run back home.  Only to find my bus pass was deeply hidden in my bag.

02:39 <Schism> Bus driver tries to escape, I heard...

02:40 <Cepheid> I run back, catch bus.  Then at Blair, driver shuts door in my face and tries to escape me.

02:42 <Schism> Gyurk.

03:18 <DashedRainbows> I'm doing well, getting ready to draw

03:23 <Cepheid> Schism, random question out of the blue, but does the word "Ayu" (aye-you) mean anything to you, or sound familiar?

03:24 <iandalton> Uguu~

03:24 <iandalton> Tsukimiya Ayu https://vignette.wikia.nocookie.net/kanon/images/d/dc/FGAY01.png/revision/latest?cb=20150305132046

03:24 <Schism> Nothing comes to mind in that regard.

03:25 <Cepheid> iandalton:  Alas, that doesn't ring any bells.

03:25 <Cepheid> I've never seen Kanon

03:26 <Thelema5> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2q4CyO1GOb0

03:27 <Cepheid> Schism:  Bah.  It's from the dream I had last night.  A glyph, with an associated word, pronunciation and meaning.  I know the word, pronunciation and meaning, but not the glyph.  For some reason, when I try to recall the image in my mind, I see everything clearly except for the glyph.

03:27 <Cepheid> And it bugs me.

03:28 <Schism> And the meaning...?

03:28 <Schism> Oh, 'shield'.  Hmm.

03:29 <Cepheid> "Shield" or "Deflection"

03:29 <Cepheid> One of those weird bits of my memory of dreams.

03:37 <Schism> Hmm.  Ex-Exxon Texan Exec Rex Next Ex-Sec.

03:38 <Cepheid> Also, what in the hell are those things and why do I keep seeing them everywhere?  Either I'm going crazy, I'm hallucinating, or my meds are doing something to me.  I keep seeing these little black shadows moving about everywhere.  Normally I'd assume they're floaters or something in my eyes except..

03:38 <Cepheid> They follow surfaces.  Up and down stairs, along walls, etc.

03:38 <Cepheid> And they're getting more and more frequent.

03:39 <Schism> Beardlings, perhaps?

03:40 <Cepheid> Beardlings?

03:40 <Schism> Yeah.  Pick some flowers, maybe, or eat some ice cream to recover some sanity.

03:40 <Cepheid> Oh.  Don't Starve?

03:41 <Cepheid> Whatever they are, they tend to be fast, and disappear around corners quickly.  I only see them for around 1-2 seconds maximum.

03:42 <Cepheid> Last one I saw, I was leaving my bedroom.  It was on the wall at about chest-height, and moved into my bedroom to escape my view.  Turned to look for it, I couldn't find it.

03:42 <Schism> Weird.  o.o;

03:42 <Cepheid> I'm starting to think there's something wrong with my head, or the meds I'm on are doing more than I think.

03:42 <Schism> Hard to say for sure...

03:46 <Cepheid> Far as I can tell though, they're harmless.  Afraid of me, so... *Shrugs*

03:46 <Cepheid> If I suddenly disappear one day mysteriously, assume they have killed or taken me.

03:46 <Cepheid> I expect rescue within 48 hours.

03:47 <Schism> Oh wait.  Dark shadows, looming around the edges of your vision, disappearing as soon as you turn your head, silent and ever-watching?

03:47 <Schism> Right, those are just fairies.

03:48 <Cepheid> Less turning my head and just seeing them in general.

03:48 <Cepheid> Some are at the edges of my vision.  Others are in the middle of my vision.  Some race across it, etc.

03:49 <Cepheid> All have the distinct behaviour of immediately rushing off to the nearest location where they'll escape my vision.

03:49 <Cepheid> Usually corners,

03:50 * Filly_Nightmares floofs up muchly and eees for warms!

03:51 <Cepheid> That generally does tend to be when they show up.  When I'm tired, etc.  But I've had a few show up in the middle of the day.  Saw a few at the campus, too.

03:51 <Thelema5> Hmm.  Flaxmilk isn't so bad

03:51 * Thelema5 offers some around

03:54 * Schism uses the linseed oil to lubricate his machines.

03:54 <Thelema5> Your machines must have very good cardiovascular and joint health

03:55 <Schism> It is also useful for making varnish for said machines.

03:55 <Thelema5> True enough

04:01 <Thelema5> Cepheid, source?

04:01 <Schism> Just passed on...

04:02 <Schism> Thelema5: Then a Reuben on Sunday, and then another Reuben on Monday... (If you make corned beef, you do up a bunch of it.)

04:03 <Thelema5> That's sad, but not too surprising since he was expected to die decades ago

04:03 <Filly_Nightmares> Yis

04:03 * Schism nods.

04:03 <Cepheid> Mind, for a man with such a debilitating disease, he lasted a lot longer than I thought he would have.  I think a lesser man would have gone insane, being in the position he was in.

04:03 <Thelema5> I'm sure

04:04 <Thelema5> At least he had a sense of humor through it all

04:14 <Cepheid> Knowing my luck, I'll have another weird dream again.

04:14 <Thelema5> Possibly.  But perhaps you'll forget it by morning

04:15 <Cepheid> Truth told, I'd rather remember them more clearly.

04:15 <Cepheid> They're the only times my brain appears to be even remotely creative.

14:48 <Finwe> For us it's 14.3.2018 today.

14:49 <RazorSharpFang> Americans, putting their month before their day. Pah.

14:49 <Finwe> But in ISO-8600 sense it is, at least somewhat.

14:50 <Finwe> 2018-03-14

14:50 <RazorSharpFang> It should be YYYY-MM-DD

14:50 <Finwe> 2018-03-14T16:50:50+2

14:51 <Finwe> The ISO standard also requires use of 24 hour clock. o3o

14:51 <RazorSharpFang> Would that be accepted as DateTime input?

14:52 <Finwe> Umm, it's ISO-8601.

14:52 <Finwe> ISO-8600 covers medical endoscopes.

14:52 * Finwe derps.

14:52 <Finwe> 6.9

14:54 <Finwe> RazorSharpFang: You'd have to give the time difference from GMT in the form +02:00 for that.

14:54 <Finwe> 2018-03-14T16:50:50+02:00

14:55 <Finwe> 2018-073 could also be used to describe today.

14:56 <RazorSharpFang> Today, I made a neat little app that checks if your internet is working. https://i.imgur.com/H58YFJ7.png

14:56 <Finwe> It's year 2018 and it's the 73rd day of the year.

14:56 <RazorSharpFang> I don't think anyone uses that convention.

14:57 <Finwe> Or you could say 2018-W11-3

14:57 <Finwe> The 3rd day of the 11th week of year 2018.

15:11 <Cepheid> Finwe:  I am almost certain that ISO-8600 was designed purely by Americans just to piss off the rest of the world.

15:11 <Cepheid> Also, my dad has a theory as to why my cat keeps attacking my cables.

15:11 <Cepheid> Especially the specific, samsung and apple white cables.

15:12 <Cepheid> Apparently, a report came out about various brands of trucks, where the drivers are having trouble with mice chewing cables.  They suspect it's because the cables are coated in a soy-based plastic/rubber.

15:12 <Cepheid> If these cables are in the same boat, Spitfire must be smelling it off the cables.

15:25 <Cepheid> Oh.  Wrong one.

15:25 <Cepheid> I meant for the time/date thing.

15:25 <Finwe> Just like I did.

15:25 <Cepheid> Okay then.

15:26 <Cepheid> In any case, setting a requirement for MM/DD/YYYY is annoying.

15:26 <RazorSharpFang> I think the YYYY-MM-DD is a good compromise between MM-DD-YYYY and DD-MM-YYYY

15:26 <Finwe> The correct one is ISO-8601.

15:26 * Cepheid stabs RazorSharpFang.

15:26 <Cepheid> Actually no.

15:26 <Cepheid> That makes sense when you consider counting systems.

15:27 <Cepheid> Units increase when you go from right to left.  ones, tens, hundreds, thousands, etc.  So day, month year in the same order would make sense.

15:27 <Finwe> Least significant first and most significant first are both sensible.

15:28 <Cepheid> True.

15:29 <Finwe> Least significant somewhere in the middle, most significant last and everything else first is a strange way of arranging the date, though.

15:29 <Cepheid> That makes the MM-DD-YYYY setup neither-significant-first.  AKA:  76501243 bit pattern.

15:32 <Cepheid> The separator here in Canada is :.

15:33 <Cepheid> But otherwise the same.

17:00 <Cepheid> My asthma's gotten better though, since I started using the nasal spray for my nose and sinuses.

17:00 <Cepheid> Leading me to wonder if perhaps my asthma is a symptom of my sinus infection.

17:01 <Cepheid> Diabetes is getting controlled ever so slowly, it hovers around 7.0 to 7.5 now.

18:05 <Filly_Nightmares> I can't get an Apple computer if I can build or buy a better one and save like a few hundred. o3o

18:05 <DerpyBot> New post on Equestria Daily by Sethisto: MLP Season 8 Episode 18 - Yakity-Sax - Synopsis and Discussion [ http://tinyurl.com/y8alh6n2 ]

18:05 <Cepheid> OpenBSD...  Linux From Scratch as well.

18:05 <Cepheid> Few hundred?  Try a thousand, Filly.

18:06 <Cepheid> I can build a better PC than most MacBook that costs about $500.

18:06 <Cepheid> Most MacBook here are $1,500 or more.

18:06 <Finwe> The original developer was Judd Vinet of Victoria, British Columbia.

18:06 <Filly_Nightmares> Some of my friends are telling me to get a MacBook when I could get a Windows laptop wif an i7-8550U and an MX150 GPU

18:07 <Filly_Nightmares> And save like 700

18:07 <Finwe> Cepheid: The prices for a MacBook Pro start from €2,800 here.

18:07 <Filly_Nightmares> Wif IPS display

18:07 <Finwe> I got mine for free because the CS administration was going to throw it away.

18:07 <Filly_Nightmares> I dun need Apple services because it's not hard to fix something yourself

18:08 <Cepheid> I haven't looked at recent prices truth told.  Let's see....

18:08 <Finwe> I just got a new hard drive and battery, after which the computer started working properly again.

18:08 <Filly_Nightmares> Last time I looked, it was like 1500

18:08 <Filly_Nightmares> Or 1300 for a weak processor

18:09 <Cepheid> $1,300 minimum.  Average is clearly over $2,000.

18:10 <Finwe> €2 899.00 for the 15" model. (Mine is 15".)

18:10 <Cepheid> I would never be able to get hardware free from the cs department.  Even nonfunctioa hardware.  This school is stingy.  They can't even be bothered to hire someone to deal with the roach infection in the tech building.

18:10 <Cepheid> I've never seen roaches before prior to university.  Ever.

18:12 <Finwe> Mine is also almost 10 years old, but with 4 GB of memory, 2.80 GHz processor and twin display adapters it works fine for my needs.

18:12 <Filly_Nightmares> My laptop at home is 3 years old!

18:12 <Filly_Nightmares> o3o

18:12 * Finwe noms on Filly_Nightmares's laptop.

18:13 * Filly_Nightmares noms Finwe

18:13 <Filly_Nightmares> Still able to run all games on Mac!

18:13 <Filly_Nightmares> Max!

18:13 <Filly_Nightmares> Autocorrect!

18:13 <Filly_Nightmares> Eee!

18:13 * Filly_Nightmares sits on Finwe's cheek

18:13 <Finwe> I also had a HP EliteBook, but I gave it to my niece.

18:13 <Filly_Nightmares> I wanna get an Asus ZenBook

18:13 <Cepheid> My Mac needs a new keyboard,  new battery, nd a new power adapter.

18:13 * Finwe squanders Filly_Nightmares's savings.

18:14 *** Joins: Pi (saxopi@Pony-jpu.vqi.200.112.IP)

18:14 <Cepheid> All of which cost more than it is worth.

18:14 <Finwe> I got the power adapter for free, too.

18:14 <Cepheid> Otherwise, I'd repair it and turn it into a server.

18:14 * Pi noserubs Finwe

18:14 <Cepheid> Mine went bye bye.  I can't find it.

18:15 <Finwe> Even though that meant rescuing it from an electronics waste bin.

18:15 <Finwe> À propos games, time for a scheduled game of Armed Assault with some friends.

18:15 <Pi> o3o

18:16 <Pi> I still wonder if the surface pro is worth it

18:16 * Finwe imprisons Filly_Nightmares in a confinement compound somewhere in Chernarus.

18:16 * Filly_Nightmares noms Finwe's ears

18:16 *** Quits: Cyan_Spark (Cyan_Spark@sparks.only.last.so.long) (Quit: Sparks only last so long)

18:17 <Filly_Nightmares> Arma 3!

18:17 <Finwe> Then you just steal a Makarov pistol from the guard and try and escape.

18:17 <Cepheid> Hmm.  Amazon has the parts for about $120.

18:17 <Filly_Nightmares> Eee

18:17 <Finwe> Filly_Nightmares: We play ArmA 2 and 3.

18:17 <Filly_Nightmares> O3O

18:17 <Filly_Nightmares> I only have 3!

18:17 <Filly_Nightmares> I have Tanoa!

18:17 <Cepheid> I have arma 2.  Not 3.

18:17 <Cepheid> Don't play it.

18:18 <Finwe> I've spent 280 hours playing ArmA 2.

18:18 <Finwe> Or rather, ArmA 2: Operation Arrowhead.

18:19 <Finwe> It used to feel like awfully lot, but then I spied on a friend's Steam that he had spent over 5,000 hours playind Defence of the Ancients 2.

18:20 <Finwe> Well, I have to go now. See you later.

18:20 * Finwe trots away.

18:21 * Pi steals Finwe's friends

18:21 <Filly_Nightmares> Eee

18:23 *** Parts: Coco` (coco@Pony-ap8dnm.res.rr.com) ("nya")

18:24 <Cepheid> Right.  My later lecture is in an area of expertise for me.  I'm not gonna go.

18:24 * Filly_Nightmares goes onto Cepheid's head

18:24 <Cepheid> It's about memory and memory management.  I am more familiar with this than I probably should be.

18:27 <Cepheid> Catch you when I get on a bus.
