<ELLIOTTCABLE> whitequark: where'd you go? I need things deadened.
<ELLIOTTCABLE> whitequark: and I suck at deadededing things.
<ELLIOTTCABLE> :P
<ELLIOTTCABLE> we're off MC for now, FYcollectiveI
<ELLIOTTCABLE> gonna get pizza and watch Sherlock.
<ELLIOTTCABLE> anybody here play Civilization 5?
<ELLIOTTCABLE> think we're doing that, next. marathon for the rest of the night.
<Willox> I downloaded it last night
<Willox> that was what me and my buddy were getting refunds for from silly russian cd key websites
<whitequark> ELLIOTTCABLE: I got bored and went back to CNC
eligrey has quit [Quit: Leaving]
<whitequark> okay my cnc has burned down
<joelteon> whitequark sounds even more russian than i imagined
<whitequark> no shit, the transformer is shorted out and one of the ICs has exploded
<whitequark> I'll just replace 'em
<ELLIOTTCABLE> hi all
<ELLIOTTCABLE> whitequark: burned down?
<whitequark> yeah
<ELLIOTTCABLE> whitequark: what eeeeeven
<whitequark> the transformer broke down and put the 130V input voltage on the low-voltage insides
<whitequark> it killed a linear 7812 regulator, which is now shorted INPUT-GND
<ELLIOTTCABLE> … lol
<purr> lol
<whitequark> as a result a fuse has burned down, which likely protected the rest of circuit from failure
<whitequark> quite lucky actually
<ELLIOTTCABLE> Willox: you Civ 5?
<Willox> It's a little late for me
<ELLIOTTCABLE> Willox: might be co-op'ing with brian here in a couple hours
<Willox> aka 3am
<ELLIOTTCABLE> bah

gq has joined #elliottcable
<devyn> glowcoil: I could gift it to you
<devyn> personally I think IV is better
<devyn> I fork bombed my system for fun
<gq> how did that go?
<gq> was fun had?
<devyn> fun was had
<gq> excellent.
<devyn> system ran at 50% load until exhausting most of my 16 GB of RAM
<devyn> at which point I tried desperately to kill all of the forks
<gq> haha
<devyn> I was not successful
<devyn> they spawned faster than 'killall' could get them
<devyn> so I just reset
<devyn> I should probably set resource limits or something
<devyn> but this isn't a server
<devyn> so whatever
<gq> heh
<glowcoil> devyn: hahaha
<glowcoil> awesome
<glowcoil> devyn: so you don't play it much or something?

<whitequark> wow, the dream I just had was worth of hollywood. heroes, villains, epic dialogie, head-smashing, biologically enhancened people, Tilda Swinton
<whitequark> yorickpeterse: 1st photo is shopped. others? dumb people. I'm not impressed.
eligrey has joined #elliottcable
<alexgordon> whitequark: worthy of hollywood doesn't say much nowadays
<whitequark> well, treat it as a positive sentiment.
<alexgordon> last movie I saw was james bond
<alexgordon> it was shit
<alexgordon> casino royale was the last good one
<alexgordon> incidentally 2006 was about the time when movies started getting shit
<whitequark> meh. no.
<alexgordon> before or after?
<whitequark> that didn't happen
<alexgordon> movies are great?
<whitequark> some movies are great
<alexgordon> :|
<whitequark> you can't expect every single one to be great, "great" loses any meaning then
<whitequark> and you simply don't remember the pre-2006 shitty ones *shrug*
<purr> ¯\(º_o)/¯
<alexgordon> I expect at least one of them to be not shit!
<alexgordon> I had thought that it's a recognized fact that the studios are putting more money into surefire bets like "ironman 3"
<gq> i'm amusing myself by imagining alexgordon spending ridiculous amounts of money seeing every film each year the night they come out
<gq> and getting increasingly desperate each time
<alexgordon> gq: nah I pirate them
<gq> no shh
<alexgordon> cinemas are too loud
<gq> also nobody talk about iron man 3
<gq> every time i think about it i feel uncomfortable
<whitequark> lol
<purr> lol
<whitequark> alexgordon: you're from UK, don't you get assraped for piracy?
<alexgordon> lol not yet
<alexgordon> 4 years ago they said they'd cut off pirates
<gq> the queen personally comes to your house each time you pirate and starts crying
<alexgordon> *crickets8
<alexgordon> they pushed it back to 2011, then 2012, then 2013 then 2014, now 2015
<alexgordon> never gonna happen
<gq> if you close the door one of the princes shows up to take her home, but not before telling you how very, very, very disappointed they are
<alexgordon> whitequark: anyway, I'm behind 7 proxies
<whitequark> then the speed is shit though...
<alexgordon> ehh depends how much you pay
<whitequark> doesn't it become easier at that point to, you know, buy movies?
<whitequark> the only reason I, um, not pirate them, is because it's practically impossible to find movies here with english subtitles, and netflix & co basically just wave a giant dick to all non-US residents
<whitequark> sure, I could use an US proxy, but why bother

<gq> interesting
<ELLIOTTCABLE> @ELLIOTTCABLE: Hello, my Twitter friends … I'm composing an form-letter to e-mail to any company with terrible password requirements, and need references.
<ELLIOTTCABLE> @ELLIOTTCABLE: If you *have* any such references (good articles declaiming pass-phrases over strict, short ‘passwords,’ are much-appreciated) … hit me up.
<ELLIOTTCABLE> -^ that
<ELLIOTTCABLE> y'all bitches
<ELLIOTTCABLE> whitequark, alexgordon, you'll be interested in this
<gq> ELLIOTTCABLE: 'an' form-letter?
<whitequark> I'd google schneier's blog and pick relevant references
<whitequark> so you can do that yourself now
<ELLIOTTCABLE> gq: oh die in a fire <3
<alexgordon> ELLIOTTCABLE: lol why do you care
<purr> lol
<ELLIOTTCABLE> alexgordon: I actually have a STEALTH TUMBLR™ wherein I blog about such things
<ELLIOTTCABLE> (I just made STEALTH TUMBLR™ up)
<ELLIOTTCABLE> (aren't I cool)
<whitequark> gq++
<purr> Let it be known that whitequark loves gq.
<gq> ELLIOTTCABLE: <3
<alexgordon> whitequark: hahaha
<whitequark> oh, that wasn't intended
<whitequark> to trigger purr
<whitequark> but ok
<gq> it's rarely intended to trigger purr, but it happens anyway
<ELLIOTTCABLE> *Everything* isn't intended to trigger purr, but *everything* does so anyway.
<ELLIOTTCABLE> that's a marginally good approximation of The Point™.
<ELLIOTTCABLE> k, bbl. Civ 5 marathon with Brian.
<ELLIOTTCABLE> gq: you said you wanted to join?
<gq> ELLIOTTCABLE: erm, join what
<gq> -what
<purr> <devyn> guise, I'm too high for this shit
<ELLIOTTCABLE> Civ 5?
<ELLIOTTCABLE> or something?
<gq> must have been 'or something'
<gq> as i do not actually own civ 5
<gq> sorry, he
<gq> *heh
<ELLIOTTCABLE> that's what I meant
<ELLIOTTCABLE> you said, you wished you owned Civ 5.
<ELLIOTTCABLE> can your computer even handle that?
<gq> i absolutely did not say that
<gq> but not really
<gq> d has it, but it's not installed right now
<gq> yes the computer can handle it, according to him
<ELLIOTTCABLE> lololol
<purr> lololol
<ELLIOTTCABLE> who the hell said that, then
<gq> i don't know
<ELLIOTTCABLE> purr needs backlog-search.
<ELLIOTTCABLE> meh.
<gq> i am not your brain's secretary
<gq> (thank god)
<ELLIOTTCABLE> no
<ELLIOTTCABLE> girlfriend usually does that
<ELLIOTTCABLE> now, no girlfriend
<ELLIOTTCABLE> it's like losing my external hard drive, and having no backu
<gq> you need a pepper potts
<gq> i mean i guess she turns into a girlfriend eventually too
<gq> but dang
<joelteon> wait a sec
<joelteon> yorickpeterse wrote ruby-lint?
<whitequark> yeah
<joelteon> nice
* whitequark doesn't think it is very useful
<joelteon> me neither
