03:26 <bazzy> is it safe to do `if m.user.authname` or is that considered private API .. is there a public API I should use to check if a user is authorized I am missing?

03:27 <bazzy> I see it :3

03:27 <bazzy> authed?

03:27 <bazzy> :)

05:38 <dominikh> bazzy: authname is part of the public API

05:40 <bazzy> thanks dominikh

05:40 <dominikh> anything that's private is documented as private on rubydoc

06:08 <bazzy> been wanting to tell you: nice hair :3

06:08 <dominikh> bazzy: funny you would say that, I just cut it off yesterday

06:10 <bazzy> NO! Then I shall take the awesomeness as I am growing mine out ^_^

06:10 <bazzy> lol

06:10 <dominikh> old photo, too. my hair was far longer nowadays. and it became a huge pain in the butt

06:10 <dominikh> (figuratively)

06:10 <bazzy> aw man, I hope you play rock music!! Its a great use for hair like that!

06:10 <bazzy> it's*

06:10 <dominikh> haha, I'm afraid not :P

06:10 <bazzy> is there a cinch bot in here?

06:11 <dominikh> but now I have a buzz cut, so… not good for any music :P

06:11 <bazzy> !s/is/test/

06:11 <dominikh> none I am aware of. bots aren't permitted in this channel

06:11 <bazzy> hehe .. so I assume that means you play no instruments?

06:11 <dominikh> (other than my own, but I'm not running one here)

06:11 <dominikh> no, I don't play music. I enjoy it purely passively

06:12 <bazzy> I got znc working with my bot btw, it's lovely .. although I've been really wanting to somehow -- seamlessly "activate" the updated bot before dropping the old one offline for lower downtime ..

06:13 <dominikh> you can make use of ZNC's playback feature, so the new bot gets the messages it missed and reacts to them. then the restart only incurs some delay

06:13 <bazzy> actually.. I think I've mispoken .. I think it would be cool if somehow it said to users "I'm away" or you get the point..

06:13 <dominikh> that'd be annoying as fuck imo

06:14 <bazzy> lol

06:14 <dominikh> bots are too spammy as it is most of the time

06:14 <dominikh> they shouldn't be even more annoying

06:14 <bazzy> well something is better than nothing .. a lot of users play my bot's game and then would be like WTF happened to the bot :3

06:14 <bazzy> if it didn't respond at all

06:14 <bazzy> they would say my bot is broken! hehe

06:14 <bazzy> I guess it's not a big deal

06:15 <dominikh> the restart should take a few seconds at most. alternatively you could patch Cinch to accept an existing socket on a file descriptor, so it can reuse the old connection

06:15 <bazzy> The game gets so intense that if I take the bot down .. everyone is all WTF ... lol

06:15 <dominikh> it'd just need to sync its state

06:16 <dominikh> (and I don't know if ruby's openssl integration supports resuming an existing stream)

06:16 <bazzy> Would you like to try the game? It's currently hosted on ESPER #wordgame

06:16 <bazzy> yeah forget implementing that .. I've got a lot of high-level implementation TODO already...

06:17 <dominikh> I don't exactly have time for games :) what kind of game is it?

06:17 <bazzy> I invite you to see yourself :3 there are people in there now , playing is pretty self-explanatory and is not long-winded

06:18 <dominikh> well, again, haven't exactly got time for games ;)

06:18 <bazzy> aw, even a few minutes?

06:18 <bazzy> a game could last about that time

06:18 <bazzy> :D

06:19 <dominikh> just tell me what the game is

06:19 <bazzy> I refuse! if you can listen you can try it hehehe

06:19 <dominikh> then I guess I'll never know.

06:19 <bazzy> I'm ok with that

06:19 <bazzy> lol

06:25 <bazzy> :3
