01:53.29 | Tene | I was just told to choose somewhere |
01:53.37 | Maquis | a place to meet... |
01:53.41 | Maquis | hmmm |
01:53.50 | Maquis | dunno |
01:53.50 | Tene | "Why don't you suggest a convenient meeting place near the Tax Commission, |
01:53.51 | Tene | your home, or downtown." |
01:54.01 | Maquis | what company? |
01:54.07 | Tene | Tax Commission was mentioned because that's where I'm currently working |

01:54.32 | Tene | yeah |
01:54.32 | Maquis | that's cool |

02:02.57 | Tene | other people have suggested a food-type place. opinions on that? |

02:03.22 | jsmith | Tene: Naw, food is bad. Hard to eat and sell yourself at the same time |
02:03.32 | Tene | That's what I thought. |
02:03.53 | Tene | so, this little america hotel... where is it? |
02:03.56 | Tene | or... /me asks google. |
02:04.08 | jsmith | 6th south and main ... thereabouts. |

02:38.31 | ibot | ACTION hog-ties tensai and starts the heavy punishment with a cat-o-nine-tails. |
02:38.47 | Maquis | ok... this is kinda nasty... sir isaac newton wanted to learn how the eye worked... |
02:38.53 | Maquis | and so he probed his own eye with pins |
02:39.02 | Tene | o.O |
02:39.56 | tensai | I assume he learned that the eye works by not poking it with pointy things |
02:40.10 | LeviHome | Yup. A lot of famous scientists were a bit off by today's standards. |
02:40.26 | Maquis | it makes my eyes hurt to think of that... |
02:40.35 | Tene | ~newton Maquis |
02:40.37 | LeviHome | Did I ever tell you about my eye surgery? |
02:40.49 | Maquis | someone that we studied also looked at the sun directly for a long time to see what he could learn about it... |
02:40.53 | Maquis | LeviHome: no.... |
02:41.08 | tensai | Maquis: galileo I think |
02:41.10 | LeviHome | I had cornea transplants. |
02:41.29 | Maquis | LeviHome: was it painful???? |
02:41.45 | LeviHome | So I had plenty of experience with pointy things in contact with my eyes. :) |
02:42.03 | LeviHome | Well, yeah. Surgery usually is. It wasn't horrible, though. |
02:42.23 | LeviHome | The actual procedure wasn't painful, just the recovery. |
02:42.34 | LeviHome | And they gave me good drugs. |
02:43.30 | LeviHome | I woke up partway through the surgery. Apparently I was out longer than they expected. I was so out of it that I just wanted to go back to sleep, though. |
02:43.47 | Maquis | you woke up during it???? |
02:43.48 | Maquis | ick |
02:44.07 | LeviHome | And I didn't feel a thing until I got home. I mostly slept for the next day or two, and then it felt like I had something in my eye for weeks. |
02:44.38 | Maquis | (at least in my experience) |
02:45.02 | LeviHome | The second time I actually spent the night in the hospital, which sucked. |
02:45.31 | LeviHome | They gave me a bit too much of the sphincter-tightening stuff... luckily I didn't need a catheter, though. |
02:45.39 | Maquis | 2 questions: why 2 times? and why was it worse in the hospital? |
02:46.01 | LeviHome | One eye each time. |
02:46.02 | Maquis | ~dict sphincter |
02:46.30 | Maquis | LeviHome: couldn't they have just done both at once... |
02:47.02 | LeviHome | Sure, if I wanted to be totally blind for a few days. |
02:47.10 | LeviHome | And have both my eyes hurt instead of just one. |
02:47.16 | Maquis | i dunno... |
02:47.17 | xbmodder_lappy | if i say 'my girl my girl' would'nt that infer something else... you can say my man my man. without that. |
02:47.25 | LeviHome | And wait for two corneas to become available instead of one. |
02:47.43 | Maquis | trying to determine whether it would be worse to have pain in both eyes at once, or to have pain in one eye, and then pain in the other... |
02:47.44 | xbmodder_lappy | is there something that would make my screen hard to read. |
02:48.03 | LeviHome | Maquis: They were more than a year apart. |
02:48.04 | Maquis | xbmodder_lappy: having the monitor unplugged would make it hard to read |
02:48.07 | Maquis | LeviHome: oh... |
02:48.11 | Maquis | still.... |
02:48.32 | Tene | xbm: magnet on the crt |
02:48.32 | LeviHome | Maquis: I could have gone longer on the second one, but my mission was coming up and I'd be without my parents' insurance afterwards. |
02:49.10 | Maquis | ah... |
02:49.17 | LeviHome | When I decided to do the second one, I was literally in the hospital the next day. That kind of freaked me out, since I had a few months to prepare myself the first time while waiting for a donor. |
02:49.50 | LeviHome | Anyway, the surgery itself wasn't even the squirmy part. |
02:49.53 | Tene | what was the reason, levi? |
02:50.02 | xbmodder_lappy | I remember there was a proggy that would blur the screen a bit. and kill every other line at random for windows. |
02:50.12 | LeviHome | That was the removal of the stitches, for which all I had was eye numbing drops. |
02:50.24 | xbmodder_lappy | making the screen impossibly hazy if you were not looking directly at it. |
02:50.33 | LeviHome | Tene: A degenerative disease in my corneas. |
02:50.41 | Tene | notfun |
02:50.50 | Maquis | LeviHome: ipes!!!! /me doesn't like the sound of that... |
02:51.00 | Tene | xbm: you can't really do that with normal X |
02:51.10 | LeviHome | Usually people don't have to have surgery for it until they're past middle age. I had a particularly bad case. |
02:51.20 | Tene | look into one of the xorg-extension-using window-manager things |
02:51.24 | xbmodder_lappy | Tene, do i have to hack X? |
02:51.26 | Tene | like... what's it called... expocity? |
02:51.46 | LeviHome | Maquis: I had to sit very still, stare into a bright light with my eye propped open by the doctor's hand, and watch a little scalpel come up and slice through the stitches. |
02:51.53 | Tene | luminocity |
02:51.59 | Tene | http://fishsoup.net/blog/ |
02:52.15 | Tene | give that a good hacking |
02:52.46 | xbmodder_lappy | Tene, thanks |
02:52.57 | Maquis | LeviHome: ummm... i don't think i would be able to handle that... |
02:53.16 | Tene | Maquis: what if it's either that or go blind? |
02:53.51 | Maquis | not sure... |
02:54.02 | Maquis | i'd definitely have to think for a while on that one... |
02:54.19 | LeviHome | Yeah, if I didn't do anything, my left eye at least would have ruptured eventually, and I'd have to go through it anyway. |
02:54.30 | Maquis | ruptured???? |
02:55.03 | LeviHome | The cornea became more and more deformed, cone-shaped, and thin in areas. It was developing scar tissue in some areas, too. |
02:55.16 | LeviHome | All of which, I'm sure you can imagine, made it rather hard to see clearly out of it. |
02:55.22 | *** join/#utah vontrapp (~von@c-67-177-11-46.client.comcast.net) |
02:55.34 | LeviHome | Without any correction, I couldn't see the big E on the chart with my left eye. |
02:56.02 | LeviHome | Only rigid contact lenses would correct it, and my cornea was so cone-shaped they wouldn't fit anymore. |
02:57.28 | LeviHome | Going blind was really the only other option, and avoiding that is worth a LOT of pain. |
02:57.56 | LeviHome | Trust me. If you'd been through the crappy vision I had, and then got it back, and then faced losing it again... |
02:58.12 | Maquis | i suppose in the actual situation, i would probably see it a bit differently... |
02:58.23 | Maquis | but... just hearing about it makes me squirm... |
02:58.30 | Tene | of course you would, your cornea would be deformed. |
02:58.37 | Tene | that makes you see everything differently |
02:59.27 | LeviHome | Maquis: When the choice is feeling like you have grit permenantly embedded in your eye or going in to have a stitch removed, it's a pretty easy decision. |
02:59.43 | Tene | ~lart Maquis for it's a pre-emptive strike |
03:00.40 | Maquis | LeviHome: yeah... i suppose if it's already painful, you might as well take a bit more pain to get the pain to go away... |
03:00.41 | LeviHome | Hmm. According to American Express, I've made a milestone towards financial success by being pre-approved for an AmEx Green card. |
03:00.52 | LeviHome | Maquis: Getting the stitches out is not painful at all. |
03:00.53 | Maquis | but... i'd really like to be out cold during it... |
03:01.02 | LeviHome | Maquis: It's just very disconcerting at first. |
03:01.08 | Maquis | yeah... |
03:01.13 | LeviHome | I nearly passed out several times. |
03:01.14 | Maquis | it's squirmy |
03:01.28 | LeviHome | But, after a few times, I got over it. |
03:01.46 | Maquis | see, they'd probably have to give me some pretty good drugs to just get me to not wince every time they got close... |
03:01.52 | Maquis | after a few timeS? |
03:02.01 | Maquis | how many times have you had stitches taken out of your eyes??? |
03:02.12 | LeviHome | Oh yeah, I had to go in a LOT. The stitches didn't all come out at once. |
03:05.11 | vontrapp | ok, it's time to get an rss aggregator |
03:05.20 | vontrapp | any suggestions? |
03:05.42 | tensai | vontrapp: akregator |
03:05.44 | jsmith | vontrapp: planetplanet |
03:05.45 | Tene | there are ones that integrate with the big DEs. |
03:05.56 | vontrapp | i want a standalone |
03:06.07 | tensai | define "standalone" |
03:06.16 | vontrapp | runs on it's own |
03:06.43 | vontrapp | or maybe a firefox extension |
03:07.01 | Tene | firefox has integrated rss support, doesn't it? |
03:07.08 | tensai | akregator is a kde app. docks into the systray real nice. doesn't support enclosures yet. |
03:07.17 | tensai | Tene: yeah, from 1.0 |
03:08.51 | vontrapp | where does one access and configure firefox's rss? |
03:09.40 | LeviHome | There's a little button in the bottom right. |
03:09.57 | LeviHome | It makes a bookmark, which expands to the current feed items in the bookmark menu. |
03:10.31 | vontrapp | i don't see any button on the bottom right |
03:11.05 | Tene | go to a site with an rss feed |

04:06.14 | vontrapp | like ctr-c is what i'm thinking |
04:06.15 | Maquis | findlay: you were flagged 20% offtopic and 10% insightful... |
04:06.21 | Maquis | how'd the "insightful" get in there? |
04:07.09 | findlay | don't know, <enjoyable sarcasm>but one thing I've learned in life is never to question the judgement of /. moderators</> |
04:08.09 | findlay | vontrapp: I don't know about the terminal itself, but for processes running in the shell you can do a ctrl-z to stop it |
04:08.27 | vontrapp | yeah, but that's not a sighup |
04:08.42 | Maquis | what about kill -SIGHUP (or however you do it) |
04:08.43 | findlay | or if you do a ctrl-v-<another character> it will give you a control character |
04:09.08 | vontrapp | Maquis: that works, but i want to send it directly to the program from within the program |
04:09.17 | Maquis | ah... |
04:09.20 | Maquis | wait... |
04:09.26 | Maquis | can't you do that with kill() |
04:09.31 | vontrapp | like, why would you kill -SIGKILL progid when you can just press ctr-c in the program |
04:09.38 | vontrapp | er, SIGINT |

04:10.02 | Maquis | (from man 2 kill) |
04:10.25 | tensai | ctrl-s is a soft scroll lock |
04:10.39 | tensai | which I've actually found use for now that I know what it does |
04:10.45 | findlay | I thought it meant some kind of pause |
04:10.53 | vontrapp | Maquis: i'm not talking programatically, either |
04:10.56 | vontrapp | i want a shortcut |
04:10.57 | findlay | but you have to know about ctrl-q also |
04:10.58 | Maquis | vontrapp: oh... |
04:11.08 | tensai | that's what I meant. scroll lock implemented by your terminal |
04:11.20 | Maquis | well, you could find a way to bind something to it.. |
04:11.43 | vontrapp | that's all ctr-c is, anyway, a mapping |
04:11.55 | vontrapp | most terminals happen to use ctr-c for that signal |
04:12.04 | vontrapp | but telnet usually uses ctr-[ or something |
04:12.15 | vontrapp | anyway, any common mapping fro SIGHUP? |

04:18.26 | Maquis | cool... |
04:19.51 | vontrapp | it's unfortunate when one finds such a good program right off... it limits the number of programs one tries out |
04:20.09 | findlay | I imagine you can set keybindings in your ~/.bashrc |
04:20.50 | Maquis | is there any way to do something like that? |
04:22.04 | findlay | why do you want xeyes of all things? (: |
04:22.12 | Maquis | well, that's an example |
04:22.38 | findlay | I know from using fluxbox, for example, setting keybindings for *anything* is not only possible, but easy |
04:22.58 | findlay | other WM's may differ in how they go about it |

22:27.56 | scott | it would be cool if while running a livecd you could erase the disk and burn the current state on it (cd-rw) |
