01:03.54 | levi | maquis: Lazy bum! |
01:09.16 | graphyx | so what is everyone up to tonight? |
01:09.25 | graphyx | And when are we going to do that UT2K4 game ? |
01:23.25 | graphyx | implementing AES? |
01:26.20 | maquis | yup |
01:26.58 | goozbach | graphyx: the encryptiion algorithm |
01:27.04 | goozbach | (for homework) |
01:27.10 | maquis | yeah |
01:27.53 | graphyx | now that doesn't sound like a ton of fun. |
01:28.05 | graphyx | What class is that for? |
01:28.05 | maquis | it's actually really interesting... |
01:28.08 | maquis | a bit hard, though |
01:28.12 | maquis | graphyx: security |
01:28.16 | graphyx | 465? |
01:28.34 | graphyx | I read through the first half of applied cryptography. |
01:28.41 | levi | What's hard about it? |
01:28.56 | graphyx | But once it got to the details about implementation it really isn't that much of a page turner. |
01:29.05 | graphyx | we had to do a key pair generator. |
01:29.12 | graphyx | I did mine in perl just to learn the language. |
01:29.13 | goozbach | I'm trying to rescue a downed phpwiki installation. |
01:29.21 | goozbach | and it's kicking me in the teeth |
01:29.26 | graphyx | not the best language to do math in mind you.. but I got there. |
01:29.32 | goozbach | yeah... |
01:29.40 | goozbach | that's a good way to learn perl :) |
01:29.50 | levi | I'm doing some of my design patterns homework in D. |
01:29.50 | maquis | C is pretty interesting |
01:29.56 | graphyx | I did all my 465 projects in perl except for 1 of them. |
01:29.59 | graphyx | I can't recall which. |
01:30.04 | graphyx | But it did help me learn perl. |
01:30.08 | graphyx | which was my goal. |
01:30.17 | levi | You know how I feel about C. |
01:30.25 | maquis | levi: yes... |
01:30.30 | maquis | but it's important to know |
01:30.35 | graphyx | now the password dictionary generation in perl was really easy. |
01:30.42 | graphyx | but took a lot longer than the hashing. |
01:30.43 | maquis | i don't think that perl would be very good for implementing AES |
01:30.48 | graphyx | I agree. |
01:31.05 | maquis | but i should try something in perl if i can find something that it'd be good for |
01:31.12 | graphyx | yeah |
01:31.23 | levi | maquis: You should try it in D. |
01:31.49 | levi | maquis: In fact, you could probably copy your C implementation and compile it under D with only a few modifications. |

01:39.33 | hans | i've never looked at D, but you got me thinking - |
01:40.23 | hans | very few (none that I know of) scripting languages support direct memory manipulation the way C does |
01:40.51 | hans | but even when you're doing that sort of thing, you still can make use of a lot of benefits that C really lacks |
01:41.43 | levi | hans: What do you mean? |
01:41.46 | hans | e.g. objects, returning whatever from a function (not playing the char* game and variations like maquis was learning yetserday) |
01:42.03 | levi | Ahh, yeah. |
01:42.38 | hans | so is there a language (maybe D, maybe lisp, etc.) that gives you C-like control over things like pointers, bitmasks, etc. (maybe only for some types, but without the crazy hoops you have to jump through in some languages) |
01:42.54 | hans | while giving you all the strengths (or the major ones anyway) of a language like perl or ruby or python ... |
01:43.22 | hans | \] |
01:43.43 | graphyx | good question. |
01:43.48 | levi | D does give you all the low-level access of C, but also provides a Java-like object system (but without some of the Java object system limitations). It also has dynamic arrays and strong typing. |
01:43.55 | graphyx | Sounds like you might need to write up "E" for us hans. |
01:44.12 | hans | because as much as I like ruby, I would rather program something like audio software or encryption algorithms, etc. in C than any other language (maybe a minimal subset of C++) |
01:44.14 | graphyx | sounds like a discertation to me. |
01:44.25 | hans | levi: sounds like a good start |
01:44.33 | hans | dynamic arrays are high on the list |
01:44.34 | levi | It also has anonymous functions that work as closures (at least as long as the stack variables in the environment are still around). |
01:45.07 | hans | hmm, what would you call that, formally? not really a closure is it? |
01:45.09 | levi | You also get to access non-static variables in anonymous inner classes, again as long as the stack variables are around. |
01:45.35 | levi | hans: It does close over the environment, but since members of the environment may be on the stack, the extent of the closure is limited. |
01:45.38 | hans | sounds like a good start anyhow, so how does it perform? |
01:45.44 | levi | Very well. |
01:45.58 | hans | might be worth looking into for audio programming, which I anticipate doing in the next few years |
01:45.59 | levi | It was written by a guy who writes compilers. |
01:46.09 | hans | cool |
01:46.11 | goozbach | the other day I was lookin for a .ape to .mp3 converter... |
01:46.16 | levi | It owns in the language shootout. |
01:46.20 | goozbach | it was programed in VB.net |
01:46.34 | goozbach | all that audio manipulation in VB... |
01:47.06 | levi | hans: I'm using the D frontend to gcc on my mac, but the Digital Mars compiler is free to use on Windows and Linux. |
01:48.13 | levi | hans: The main problem I'm having with it is that documentation is sparse. |
01:48.50 | levi | hans: I found a good discussion/information site the other night that helped me a lot, though. |
01:50.53 | hans | goozbach: don't give me nightmares |
01:52.27 | levi | Anyway, D is nice because it lets you get to the C level easily to do bit manipulation and such, but it also has a type system that's not totally worthless and decent abstraction facilities. |

02:01.00 | levi | hans: Common Lisp also has facilities for bit-level manipulation of binary data, but there's more of a learning curve there for C users. Peter Seibel uses them to create a really cool abstraction for defining binary file structure in "Practical Common Lisp", and then builds an id3 reader and a shoutcast server with it. |

02:43.07 | levi | And I finished my little D program. Much nicer than Java or C++, in lots of little ways. |
02:44.54 | graphyx | What did you do in D? |
02:46.28 | levi | A little toy program that used the Strategy design pattern. |
02:46.36 | graphyx | What is that? |
02:46.52 | levi | Are you familiar with design patterns in general? |
02:47.19 | graphyx | I did take the software dev class at BYU when I got my CS degree. |
02:47.28 | graphyx | been a couple years. |
02:47.34 | graphyx | and I don't do any serious development.. |
02:47.39 | graphyx | but I think I have a handle on it. |
02:47.50 | levi | 'Design Patterns' is a specific thing, not general software design. |
02:48.01 | graphyx | I understand. |
02:48.06 | graphyx | like the singleton. |
02:48.10 | graphyx | and the proxy, |
02:48.10 | levi | Right. |
02:48.25 | levi | Okay, I wasn't sure if you were asking about design patterns in general or just the Strategy pattern. |
02:48.25 | *** join/#utah wps (n=wade@65.73.113.199) |
02:48.31 | graphyx | the Strategy. |
02:50.24 | levi | Strategy is useful when you want to be able to change the algorithm which you use for a task at runtime. You break off the task into its own class/interface, and you subclass that for the various algorithms. Then the main class gets a reference to the algorithm class/interface. |
02:51.26 | maquis | it's hot |
02:52.01 | levi | maquis: Silly. You'll get it eventually. And then it will snow! |
02:52.10 | maquis | yay for snow!!!! |
02:52.14 | levi | Boo for snow. |
02:52.17 | maquis | except driving in it |
02:52.35 | levi | Yeah, you won't like it so much when you're not a student anymore and you have to drive every day. |
02:52.43 | maquis | not necessarily |
02:52.59 | maquis | in seattle, a lot of people just take the bus to work |
02:53.01 | maquis | it's a lot easier |
02:53.30 | levi | Well, if you have a bus available, that's great. I don't have that option. |
02:54.13 | levi | Plus, I hate cold weather because it makes it hard to bike. |
02:54.19 | maquis | ~hug radical left-wing crazies who got seattle a good bus system |
02:54.20 | ibot | ACTION hugs radical left-wing crazies who got seattle a good bus system |
02:54.48 | maquis | levi: here's my opinion on weather |
02:54.48 | graphyx | Ok so you have different routines that get called for various items depending on how they were instantiated? |
02:54.56 | maquis | if it's too cold, add layers |
02:55.05 | maquis | if it's too hot.. umm... there's not a whole lot you can do |
02:55.47 | maquis | what's gam_server? |
02:55.47 | levi | maquis: That works fine as long as there's not snowy/icy/salty crap all over the road. |
02:55.55 | maquis | and why is it taking up 97.5% of my cpu |
02:56.01 | levi | maquis: And the mountain trails become unridable. |
02:56.06 | maquis | umm... |
02:56.10 | maquis | that's really not good |
02:56.45 | levi | graphyx: It's not just an instantiation thing, though you generally specify what strategy you want it to start with. You can change the strategy at runtime with a method call. |
02:56.52 | maquis | someone? |
02:57.11 | levi | maquis: I dunno, try looking to see what package it belongs to? |
02:57.20 | maquis | levi: how do i do that? |
02:57.27 | graphyx | ok cool. |
02:57.44 | graphyx | So there is a variable that controls which style to use. |
02:58.07 | levi | maquis: dpkg -S |
02:58.19 | graphyx | for example a single item could contain all the data and a variable would say whether to do a depth first search, beadth first, or double ended search.. |
02:58.23 | graphyx | I think I like it. |
02:58.24 | levi | graphyx: Right, a private variable that holds a reference to the strategy object. |
02:58.31 | graphyx | not that I have a use for it right now.. |
02:58.32 | maquis | levi: [osiris erins] dpkg -S gam_server |
02:58.32 | maquis | gamin: /usr/lib/gamin/gam_server |
02:59.09 | levi | maquis: Now apt-cache show gamin |
03:00.19 | maquis | levi: it's part of the "File Alteration Monitor" |
03:00.35 | levi | maquis: Well, now you know what it is. |
03:01.30 | maquis | yeah... trying to find out from sjansen if it's safe to remove it |
03:03.49 | graphyx | levi: So the Strategy pattern seems like one that would be really simple to implement in C or perl. |
03:03.54 | graphyx | using function pointers. |
03:04.10 | graphyx | If you like using function pointers. |
03:04.30 | levi | graphyx: function pointers or higher-order functions, yes. |
03:04.42 | goozbach | o/~everybody's doing the fish... yeah yeah yeah!o/~ |
03:04.56 | graphyx | goozback: When you going to get that UT2K4 server going? |
03:05.20 | goozbach | graphyx: I'll try this weekend |
03:05.31 | levi | maquis: If you remove it, fam stuff probably won't work anymore. But it's not critical. |
03:05.40 | graphyx | cool |
03:05.41 | maquis | levi: things like vim seem to depend on it |
03:05.47 | maquis | so, i probably need to keep it |
03:06.17 | levi | Huh, I guess vim gets notified via fam if a file it's editing changes. That's nifty. |
03:07.18 | maquis | yeah |
03:07.30 | maquis | looks like this bug is "hard to reproduce" |

15:16.18 | graphyx | boot up a livecd. |
15:16.22 | graphyx | chroot into the system. |
15:16.30 | graphyx | remove the apache from the boot up. |
15:16.37 | graphyx | reboot system back into standard mode. |
15:16.51 | graphyx | And figure out why the system is crashing when apache tries to start up. |
15:16.54 | bonez42 | graphyx, I have an older woody disc.......if I boot with that....what option do I pick to get in and fix this? |
15:17.04 | graphyx | I am not good with debian. |
15:17.18 | bonez42 | ok... |
15:17.21 | graphyx | But I often use knoppix to chroot into a gentoo system and haven't had any poblems with that . |
15:21.40 | sjansen | graphyx, that's a bit extreme |
15:22.06 | sjansen | bonez42, I'll assume you use grub as your boot loader |
15:22.08 | dataw0lf | a bit? |
15:22.29 | bonez42 | sjansen, yeah, I like grub |
15:22.30 | sjansen | at boot, interrupt grub by pressing any key |
15:22.59 | bonez42 | ok......when the grub screen listing various kernels is up...any key? except Enter? |
15:23.02 | sjansen | pick the kernel you want to boot, but instead of pressing enter, press "a" to append to the boot options |
15:23.09 | bonez42 | ok |
15:23.14 | graphyx | sjansen: well I use knoppix for system imaging so chrooting into it once imaged it really easy. |
15:23.21 | graphyx | But please enlighten me on a better process. |
15:23.36 | sjansen | at the end of the line, append the number 1 and press enter |
15:23.51 | sjansen | this will boot you into run level 1 |
15:24.00 | bonez42 | just space and 1...and enter... |
15:24.02 | bonez42 | ok.... |
15:24.09 | sjansen | while in run level one, disable apache using your preferred method |
15:24.17 | bonez42 | from there I can enter as single user..ok |
15:24.20 | graphyx | yeah that does seem a bit easier. |
15:24.36 | bonez42 | is apache started in /etc/init.d or somewhere ?not sure how to disable it... |
15:24.40 | sjansen | you can then "reboot" or "init 3" or switch to whatever run level you want |
15:25.59 | sjansen | bonez42, no, but I'm going to leave it to a Debian user to describe the "best" way to disable apache |

16:06.36 | roscivs-w | k ... so I have this idea ... turn caps lock into a modifier key (perhaps by switching with the windows key?) and remap caps+h into left-arrow, caps+j into down-arrow, etc. ... |
16:07.06 | roscivs-w | Is this possible with xmodmap? Well, I'm about to find out. |
16:09.30 | maquis | roscivs-w: that's an interesting idea |
16:09.59 | roscivs-w | i'm trying to figure out how to map a multiple-key sequence (like ctrl-h or windows-h) |
16:10.22 | roscivs-w | hm. no xev installed. |
16:10.42 | levi | maquis: Tsk. Caps should be Control! You have a perfectly good esc with ^[ |
16:11.18 | roscivs-w | heh, i remember an interesting thread on the uug several years when I realized why ^[ didn't work for me |
16:11.19 | levi | Hmm. I now have 12 hours of podcasts on my Shuffle. I don't know when I'll have a chance to listen to all that. |
16:11.21 | maquis | meh |
16:11.38 | levi | And I need to clean my work keyboard. :/ |
16:11.58 | maquis | levi: go soak it in a bathtub :-D |
16:12.16 | roscivs-w | anyway, I find that moving my hand to the arrow keys is the primary cause of wrist stress at the keyboard as of late |
16:12.36 | roscivs-w | so hopefully this will fix/mitigate that problem. |
16:13.30 | levi | roscivs-w: So, why didn't ^[ work for you? |
16:13.48 | roscivs-w | hey, is there a command-line way to switch virtual terminals, e.g. to switch from ctrl-alt-f7 to f8? |
16:13.51 | maquis | roscivs-w: yeah... my laptop has them pretty close, but i still try to stay in vim or whatever... |
16:13.55 | maquis | roscivs-w: chvt |
16:14.00 | maquis | chvt 8 |
16:14.08 | maquis | you have to be root, though |
16:14.12 | roscivs-w | levi: Turns out I hit [ with my right ring finger, not my pinky |
16:14.32 | roscivs-w | because 99% of the time when I hit that key, the next key coming up is enter |
16:14.43 | roscivs-w | (think left curly brace) |
16:14.53 | levi | Heh. |
16:14.57 | roscivs-w | weird, eh? |
16:15.03 | maquis | roscivs-w: you're not the only one with weird typing |
16:15.16 | roscivs-w | I never realized it until a thread a few years ago on the uug about remapping ctrl and so forth |
16:15.37 | levi | Thankfully I don't have to hit esc very much anymore. |
16:15.43 | roscivs-w | i also discovered that when I hit esc, my right hand moves over to cover the rest of the keyboard |
16:16.02 | maquis | i'm now shifting over to hitting y with my left hand at least when i'm doing capital because otherwise it rather hurts |
16:16.05 | roscivs-w | quite fascinating to see it happen. entirely subconscious. |
16:16.18 | maquis | you wouldn't have that problem if caps was esc |
16:16.23 | roscivs-w | yeah, those split-keyboards made me realize that my "y" usage is nearly 50/50 |
16:16.30 | maquis | :) |
16:16.33 | roscivs-w | maquis: it's not a problem, it's a habit, heh |
16:16.38 | maquis | :) |
16:16.47 | levi | I have pretty much standard touch typing. |
16:16.51 | roscivs-w | it turns out to work perfectly, which is why it was hard for me to switch to the ctrl-caps switch |
16:16.51 | levi | You're all freaks. |
16:16.54 | roscivs-w | lol |
16:17.18 | maquis | my problem is, when i'm in not in X, i have problems when trying to use vim |
16:17.18 | roscivs-w | it has some benefits though |
16:17.23 | roscivs-w | i can type really fast one-handed, for instance |
16:17.42 | roscivs-w | since my right hand is used to "covering" for my left hand reaching for the esc |
16:18.10 | roscivs-w | maquis: yeah, I use vi on so many different computers it'd be annoying to have to switch back and forth, too |
16:18.25 | maquis | yeah |
16:18.42 | levi | The remapped caps key gets me in trouble on other computers, too. |
16:18.44 | roscivs-w | i've tried it before but for some reason I can never get it to stick |
16:18.55 | levi | I try to avoid other people's computers, though. |
16:19.09 | roscivs-w | now, what annoys me is to switch esc to caps lock |
16:19.12 | roscivs-w | who needs caps lock? |
16:19.26 | maquis | roscivs-w: i've been trying to *not* do that, but it causes problems |
16:19.26 | roscivs-w | just map them both to esc (or to ctrl, depending on your preference). |
16:19.34 | maquis | i've been trying to make them boh esc |
16:19.40 | maquis | but for some reason, it breaks things |
16:19.45 | roscivs-w | that's the "right" way to do it in my opinion |
16:20.17 | roscivs-w | xorg-x11-tools ... who woulda thunk it. |
16:20.44 | levi | My laptop puts ctrl in a weird spot, so it was easier to get used to using caps for it than learning the new ctrl spot. |
16:20.55 | roscivs-w | ew, does it have that FN weirdness? |
16:20.58 | roscivs-w | I hate that key. |
16:21.01 | roscivs-w | *shudder* |
16:21.09 | roscivs-w | why didn't they put *that* key in the caps-lock place? |
16:22.07 | levi | Probably to make it easy for people who use fn to get number pad behavior for the right hand. |
16:28.35 | hans | levi: my only gripe with the apple laptop keyboard is that there's no fn over by the arrow keys |

16:40.06 | sjansen | For starters, bar _should not_ be next to the space bar. |
16:40.49 | sjansen | Worse yet was the keyboard I used a couple weeks ago, not only was bar not there, enter was made bigger so that it was in the place pipe should have been. |
16:41.57 | levi | Why, pray tell, were you using a French Canadian keyboard? |
16:42.02 | roscivs-w | well, I've successfully turned caps lock into a modifier key, |
16:42.17 | roscivs-w | and using my window manager I can launch programs and all sorts of other stuff now with caps+someotherkey, |
16:42.31 | roscivs-w | but I still can't figure out how to get caps+someotherkey to map to an arrow key. |
16:43.27 | levi | Where do you use arrow keys? |
16:43.45 | roscivs-w | in any text widget that isn't vim |
16:44.02 | levi | You should be able to map them to emacs keys, at least. |
16:44.26 | roscivs-w | doesn't help me much unfortunately |
16:44.33 | roscivs-w | i already use emacs keys wherever available |
16:44.54 | roscivs-w | this is for widgets like the one I'm typing in now, or for the URL bar in my web browser, etc. |
16:45.38 | levi | If you use gtk/gnome stuff, you can change a setting that makes it use emacs keys in text boxes. |
16:45.57 | roscivs-w | how about qt? |
16:46.07 | roscivs-w | if I could change both of those I'd be set. |
16:46.08 | levi | KDE probably has a similar setting, but I haven't used it for a while. |
16:46.14 | roscivs-w | how do you do it in gtk? |
16:47.30 | levi | gtk_key_theme pref in /desktop/gnome/interface inside the Configuration Editor |
16:48.01 | roscivs-w | do any window managers allow you to map key sequences to other keys? |
16:48.11 | roscivs-w | how do I get into the Configuration Editor? |
16:48.14 | levi | There may be a way to add it to a gtkrc file or something, but I haven't needed to look into it. |
16:48.17 | roscivs-w | I don't see it in the control panel |
16:48.26 | levi | roscivs-w: Are you running Gnome? |
16:48.30 | roscivs-w | no, enlightenment |
16:50.19 | sjansen | levi: I was in canada, silly. |
16:51.02 | levi | roscivs-w: Add gtk-key-theme-name = "Emacs" to your ~/gtkrc-2.0 file |
16:51.37 | roscivs-w | heh, I just googled the same thing :) |
16:51.48 | roscivs-w | also it's gconf-editor, just for future reference |
16:51.54 | roscivs-w | (for the Configuration Editor) |
16:56.00 | roscivs-w | Ooh! That worked beautifully. Joyous emacs key bindings! |
16:56.09 | Bradipo | Anyone here know how to use netcat to send a UDP DNS query? :-) |
16:56.24 | levi | roscivs-w: That's one of the first things I do to a gnome install. :) |
16:56.41 | roscivs-w | Hmmmm... how do you select all now though? |
16:57.10 | levi | What do you want to select all for? |
16:57.22 | *** join/#utah mindjuju (n=mindjuju@216.20.238.225) |
16:57.24 | roscivs-w | *shrug* I dunno. Just wondering. |
16:57.36 | *** part/#utah mindjuju (n=mindjuju@216.20.238.225) |
16:58.10 | roscivs-w | I guess to select all and delete you could just ctrl-a ctrl-k, huh? |
16:58.24 | levi | Or ^u if you're at the end. |
16:58.26 | roscivs-w | what about to select all and copy? any nifty way to do that? |
16:58.56 | levi | Dunno about that one. |
16:59.15 | roscivs-w | oh well. the gain is greater than the loss. |
16:59.31 | levi | Cocoa text boxes do the right thing when you ^k, but apparently gtk2 ones don't. |
16:59.53 | roscivs-w | what do they do? (or not do, as the case may be) |
17:00.05 | levi | (right thing meaning ^k kills and lets you yank back with ^y) |
17:00.24 | roscivs-w | whoa, nope, that didn't work at all. |
17:00.37 | roscivs-w | lets me paste other stuff though ... hmm.... |
17:01.10 | roscivs-w | looks like it pastes the clipboard, not the selection buffer, unfortunately. |
17:01.40 | levi | Interestingly, the Cocoa kill/yank buffer is not the same as the cut/paste buffer. |
17:03.29 | roscivs-w | hmm. that's quite fascinating. |

18:05.24 | sjansen | oof |
18:05.37 | sjansen | that's alot of vim |
18:08.45 | hans | i ran through the emacs tutorial yesterday |
18:08.48 | hans | or was it the day before |
18:09.13 | hans | the intent being that I will probably do some nyquist, which is a lisp variant |
18:09.44 | hans | but I was dissapointed that I can't seem to find a way to evaluate nyquist in emacs itself, which kind of kills its usefulness (I can write lisp well enough in vim) |
18:11.19 | hans | i have to say, c-v and m-v for paging makes about as much sense as an illiteracy billboard |
18:11.53 | hans | i had to chuckle about the frequent pot shots at c-s being eaten by terminals. were not the terminals there first? |
18:13.26 | sjansen | well... emacs is pretty old |
18:18.53 | hans | yes, but isn't the terminal older? I suppose emacs could be older than the c-s usage, but I thought that was a pretty ancient one |

20:05.04 | hans | when I switched to safari, <pre> blocks worked great |
20:05.14 | hans | probably a CSS thing |
20:06.00 | hans | levi: i wouldn't know where to start for that sort of thing, but if you happen to figure it out let me know |
20:06.05 | hans | yes, it is a superset of xlisp |
20:06.55 | levi | hans: You can also just do run-lisp |
20:07.02 | vontrapp | hans: i remember getting the raw feed and checking it for newlines once, there were none. i only did that with bloxom though |

20:09.33 | hans | well, when I look at my blog rss in safari, newlines are there (not looking at the raw source) |
20:10.19 | hans | run-lisp, not familiar with it, but wouldn't that start a new instance of the interpreter every time? the big idea is that definitions hang around |
20:10.31 | levi | hans: This might be helpful, too: http://cl-cookbook.sourceforge.net/windows.html (it's not really windows-specific) |
20:10.41 | vontrapp | in that case, |
20:10.43 | vontrapp | ~lart sage |

20:12.48 | hans | do I want the cl-friendly indentation? |
20:13.00 | levi | Yes. |
20:13.39 | levi | xlisp is a subset of pre-ANSI CL, I believe, with a different object model than CL went with. |

20:47.03 | levi | I was calling all these people who aren't paying attention in class, aren't doing homework, and are thus flunking classes slackers. I'd /never/ do anything like that! ;) |
20:47.05 | lukfugl | vontrapp: it's OIT |
20:47.32 | graphyx | Hey, you guys are contemplating taking off the key loggers I put on there are you? |
20:47.38 | vontrapp | didn't flunk the class, just got a lower grade than i would have liked |
20:47.38 | graphyx | I haven't gotten a good route y login yet. |
20:48.28 | vontrapp | how do you think OIT would take my installing ubuntu on a rental? |
20:48.59 | graphyx | ever since they removed the sniff the packet over wireless and get the authentication cookie to be able to login to route y vulnerability I haven't had much fun. |
20:49.07 | graphyx | actually I didn't ever exploit that one. |
20:49.17 | graphyx | Just a friend and I played with it to see if it was still an issue. |
20:49.45 | goozbach | "we were playing that marco-polo game... so we both had our eyes closed" |
20:50.06 | graphyx | goozbach: Would that be a two headed cyclops speaking? |
20:50.29 | graphyx | wait that would be so we had both our eyes closed. |
20:51.27 | goozbach | graphyx: no, it's a quote from the strangerhood |
20:51.29 | graphyx | ok |
20:51.32 | goozbach | wade to be exact |
20:53.34 | sjansen | levi: As I remember it, you were a paragon of studious behavior while you were at BYU. |
20:53.57 | vontrapp | ~dict paragon |
20:54.28 | hans | wow, neat word |
20:54.47 | graphyx | ~dict dictionary |
20:54.56 | bonez41 | paragon not to be confused with Paramour |

20:55.12 | sjansen | Well, my last student just left. Now to find the energy to go find someplace nice to eat. |
20:55.22 | bonez41 | sjansen, what do you teach? |
20:55.27 | sjansen | linux |
20:55.29 | hans | gurudum |
20:55.44 | graphyx | sjansen: I find it hard to find a good place to eat. |
20:55.51 | graphyx | But the food at those places tends to be ok. |
20:56.08 | graphyx | It's rough. The countertop gets stuck in my teeth. |
20:56.33 | goozbach | graphyx: you haven't been to the 'onion house' then... |
20:56.45 | graphyx | They have edible counter tops? |
20:57.03 | goozbach | even better, they don't have countertops at all |
20:57.19 | vontrapp | i hate when those plastic strip things along the edge of the countertop cut the roof of my mouth |
21:06.04 | vontrapp | argh, i hate when i ask a simple yes no question and i have to wait for a novel-length response |
21:06.40 | hans | vontrapp: like "would you like fries with that?" |

21:10.01 | goozbach | dirt is always on things that come from underground... |
21:10.10 | goozbach | and I don't like eating dirt... |
21:10.19 | goozbach | so, no, I'll pass on the fries |
21:10.26 | tensai | so clearly you cannot trust the fries placed in front of you |
21:12.09 | goozbach | no, fries are a clearly untrustworth source of starches and carbs. |
21:12.33 | goozbach | I'll take a baked patato however. |
