02:06.47njsscanline: love the emacs screenshot in there
02:07.34scanlinewas wondering how many people would recognize that ;)
02:10.20njsscanline: heh
02:10.58zaksee told you so
02:11.08scanlinezak: boing!

02:11.51njsscanline: and the editor that happens to be scrolled up to show only the _comments_ on the new code is a nice touch.
02:11.54njswe got: http://issues.fresco.org/bug262
02:12.36scanlinehehe
02:12.52scanlinecaptain_proton wanted me to backwardsify picogui.org
02:13.23scanlinecould have upsidedownized the text rendering in pgserver, though I doubt anyone would have noticed ;)
02:13.37zaksome cleaning up is necessary
02:13.41scanlinezak: okeydokey. brb
02:13.52njsI suspect nicholas, but I'm really not sure.

15:47.13Xentacexcess representation.. where'd you see that?
15:47.45scanlineit's a very silly way of representeing signed integers that these textbooks insist on teaching all the budding little computer engineering students
15:50.05Zensunnitell me.... have ANY of you found a uni/college/etc that knows anything at all about teaching coding?
15:50.16scanlinehehe :)
15:50.36Zensunnihell, I used to work at a Uni....
15:50.56Zensunnithey hired me as a coder.... and I never finished high school....
16:05.17Xentacscanline: I think we just learned two-compliment... and that's it...
16:05.27scanlineXentac: good
16:06.12Xentacoh yeah... and one's compliment... but that was only to say, "this is a stupid implementation, but it's sort of how we do two's compliment"
16:06.44Xentacscanline: did you hear that I've uploaded a bunch to navi?
16:06.56scanlineoh?

16:33.17*** join/#picogui ComMan (~JoeBob1@12.148.134.9)
16:33.56lalotired of hacking python to cope with the absence of dlopen and threads
16:34.38laloof course that means I'll have to have my own init, busybox, whatnot
16:34.59scanlineyou should try to get openzaurus/openembedded to generate VR3 roms... would make this a lot easier
16:36.11prpplaguescanline: i use the tuxscreen buildroot for several projects
16:36.34scanlineprpplague: yeah.. but the stuff OE and OZ are doing is a lot cooler :)
16:36.35prpplaguescanline: once i get back from field trips, i plan to start adding them into the OE buildroot instead
16:36.44prpplaguescanline: right
16:37.10prpplaguescanline: buildroot makes embedded life so much easier
16:37.53scanlineshould be especially helpful for less trendy platforms like the vr3 and helio
16:38.39laloisn't openembedded tied to the zaurus architecture?
16:38.56scanlineno
16:39.08lalothere's nothing too hard about building roots... the problem is compiling arch-specific stuff such as gbm
16:39.22lalogee, I have no idea where I'm supposed to find the source for it
16:39.25scanlineopenzaurus was designed for the zaurus but works on a lot of platforms, and openembedded is being designed specifically to work on any embedded platform
16:39.36scanlinewhat's gbm?
16:41.00lalothe daemon who converts the button presses to kernel keyboard presses, or something like that
16:41.24scanlinehmm
16:41.29scanline#openembedded :)
16:41.35scanlineor just bug kergoth about it
17:08.25lalothat might be a bit of prejudice but I don't use bitkeeper on principle
17:08.37scanlineI agree
17:08.52scanlinebut you can use OZ without using bitkeeper...
17:09.03scanlinethere are snapshots

21:06.02lalohmm, bfd, of course.
21:06.17filewise lalo, tell me - when will PicoGUI have a web browser?
21:06.33scanline:-/
21:07.04lalofile: about 6 months after someone decides to pay me to write one? ;-) no idea, perhaps it already does.
21:07.15filelalo: lol
21:07.28laloscanline: you're allergic to bfds? sorry
21:07.38scanlinehehe
21:07.46lalocross-compiling *SUCKS*
21:08.33scanlinedepends
21:09.01laloyou know you're doing stuff that's too deep when ld segfaults
21:09.22scanlineeh.. or that you have a buggy toolchain
21:10.06lalomaybe. I was using the same binutils as my gentoo install, but perhaps it's not stable enough, so right now I'm downgrading it to the latest release
21:10.37scanlineI just had a crazy thought...
21:10.38laloI wonder if I need to recompile gcc? hope not
21:10.56lalotell me.
21:11.01scanlineif pg2 has optional support for 3D, and the S2 engine idea is a lot like portal rendering... you could use pg2 as a 3D engine
21:11.29laloo.O
21:11.32laloyes you could
21:11.46scanlinepretty useless, but comforting :)
21:12.16laloyay! buggy ld it was

21:54.59carpman{mayuka}lalo: Evangelion. The S2 engine allowed the Evas to operate without chords or batteries. It's an infinite power source.
21:55.44DevGirlACK!
21:56.08carpman{mayuka}There is nothing wrong with Evangelion.
21:56.15carpman{mayuka}Now, Hamtaro on the other hand...
21:59.16lalocarpman{mayuka}: that comparison is playing low
22:06.42carpman{mayuka}hehe. Ok. There is nothing wrong with Evangelion, Reign the Conqurer on the other hand...
