hahaha multiple displays barely works on *macOS*
<ec>
amazingly, Windows 10 handled my ridiculous setup with no configuration or complaint, on first boot, without any juggling of wires or wild incantations like macOS demands
<ec>
wtf black mirror, wtf

<pikajude>
hello ec
<pikajude>
idk what you mean dude
<pikajude>
my displays work 100% fine in osx
<pikajude>
always have
<pikajude>
hotplugging doesn't fuck up anything
<pikajude>
except on login, where they can't be plugged in, which is annoying
<jfhbrook>
how many do you have going at once tho
<pikajude>
two, one through thunderbolt and one through HDMI-DP adapter
<jfhbrook>
I've only done one external, never tried 2
<ec>
windows is weeeeird
<pikajude>
reeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee
<ec>
pikajude: MSTs?
<ec>
5K's?
<pikajude>
idk
<ec>
*need multiple DisplayPort cords?
<pikajude>
no
<ec>
pikajude: ah
<ec>
DP 1.2 doesn't support 5K
<ec>
1.3 can handle it; but for 1.2, the computer drives the left and right halves of the display separately, and combines them in software
<pikajude>
oh ok
<pikajude>
Neat

<ELLIOTTCABLE>
four letter word just to get me along
<ELLIOTTCABLE>
dimaa: unfortunately for all involved
<alexgordon>
dimaa: no, you are having a hallucination
<dimaa>

-what
<ELLIOTTCABLE>
somebody fix purr
<ELLIOTTCABLE>
even #Chicago didn't have one
<ELLIOTTCABLE>
the entire free nodes today seem to be short on purring bots
<alexgordon>
who are you dimaa and why are you dreaming that you are here?
<dimaa>
what do you want the purr bot t od o?
<dimaa>
alexgordon: ive take a bad dose of the fugus
<dimaa>

<dimaa>
at the same time
<dimaa>
welp. i need to tail more logs...........
<dimaa>
so not now
<ELLIOTTCABLE>
tbh just feed that to a neural-network and the output will probably be indistinguishable from our dearly-departed bot
<alexgordon>
dimaa: your username is one letter away from dimana which means 'where' in indonesian
<ELLIOTTCABLE>
-logs @ dimaa
<ELLIOTTCABLE>
oh wait
<ELLIOTTCABLE>

ELLIOTTCABLE is an interesting person
ELLIOTTCABLE changed the topic of #elliottcable to: a-̧̀ŝ̖ü͈p̩̥̿̾ề̫̻ŕ͈̪́i̡̩̔̀ó̪̙̅r̛͕̭̈́-̣̮̯̼̤̱̗͗̆̍̿͛̕̕̚͘͜͜c͚̼͉̠͚̘͚̍͗̐̈́̾̑͜͜͠͝͠u̫͙̤̥͖̠̻̲͓͊̌̓̂̎̉̉̓͝ĺ̛̠̘͉̠̩̬̝̰̣̔̆̇̓̒̑̉t̜̼͍͉̜̙̤̫͊̅̎́͂͛̄̑͝ͅ-slash-𝕯𝖊𝖓-𝖔𝖋-𝕯𝖊𝖙𝖊𝖗𝖒𝖎𝖓𝖊𝖉-𝕯𝖆𝖒𝖘𝖊𝖑𝖘 || #ELLIOTTCABLE is not about ELLIOTTC
<ELLIOTTCABLE>
ugh you mangled my zalgo
<alexgordon>
ELLIOTTCABLE: god that topic breaks my computer
<ELLIOTTCABLE>
which is ... admittedly ... pretty meta
<ELLIOTTCABLE>
alexgordon: that's the second-nicest thing you've ever said about me
<alexgordon>
what was the first?
<ELLIOTTCABLE>
<+cuttle> whitequark: alexgordon said it well
<ELLIOTTCABLE>
<+alexgordon> what did I say
<ELLIOTTCABLE>
<+alexgordon> I did?
<ELLIOTTCABLE>
I bet
<ELLIOTTCABLE>
I could speak for an entire month,
<alexgordon>
there's a chinese curse that goes: "may you live in elliottcable"
<ELLIOTTCABLE>
exclusively by copy-pasting snippets from this channel's logs
<ELLIOTTCABLE>
AHHHH I CAN'T -WHAT THAT
<ELLIOTTCABLE>
<+alexgordon> here is an excellent place to have arrived
<ELLIOTTCABLE>
<Determinist> yes, definitely
<alexgordon>
haha
<ELLIOTTCABLE>
anyway, the nicest thing was definitely
<ELLIOTTCABLE>
<+elliottcable> I find it hard to imagine that alexgordon gets laid.
<ELLIOTTCABLE>
<+alexgordon> elliottcable: the feeling is mutual
<alexgordon>
xD
<ELLIOTTCABLE>
or possibly
<ELLIOTTCABLE>
<+alexgordon> I'm not sure if being called sephr is less or more of an insult than being called elliottcable
<ELLIOTTCABLE>
<+alexgordon> sephr is just a troll
<ELLIOTTCABLE>
<+alexgordon> elliottcable is ACTUALLY evil
<alexgordon>
what I meant was that I find it hard to imagine that _you_ get laid
<alexgordon>
that was a spectacular own goal, I admit
<ELLIOTTCABLE>
god Sorella
<ELLIOTTCABLE>
that's still probably top five things ever said in here
<ELLIOTTCABLE>
incomprehensibly: does alexgordon have "anal sex" in his hilights?
<ELLIOTTCABLE>
because iirc that conversation lasted like, three days
<ELLIOTTCABLE>
* inimino predicts that elliottcable will redesign Paws completely while benefiting from the clarity and light that comes with intense physical pain
<ELLIOTTCABLE>
Paws )'=
<ELLIOTTCABLE>
-didja, alexgordon?
<alexgordon>
man I forgot jeanni used to be in here
<ELLIOTTCABLE>
-didja didja? >:
<ELLIOTTCABLE>
I miss jeannicolas
<alexgordon>
wish we could get the gang back together
<ELLIOTTCABLE>
yesssss
<alexgordon>
but they all have jobs, and/or children
<ELLIOTTCABLE>
incomprehensibly still exists; when I'm active, he's pseudo-active
<ELLIOTTCABLE>
idk I think the various dev[iy]ns dislike me now,
<ELLIOTTCABLE>
a few of the trolls thankfully are just Forevergone
<alexgordon>
this place used to be the shit
<ELLIOTTCABLE>
+inimino: poor elliottcable cuts his hand and it's comedy hour in ##Paws
<ELLIOTTCABLE>
+inimino: but it's not always at elliottcable's expense
<ELLIOTTCABLE>
+alexgordon: it isn't?
<ELLIOTTCABLE>
+inimino: you make two excellent points
<ELLIOTTCABLE>
+alexgordon: :P
<ELLIOTTCABLE>
+alexgordon: it's always comedy hour in ##paws
<alexgordon>
when you cooked your hand it was hilarious
<pikajude>
someone took my money for a domain and didn't transfer it
<pikajude>
almost got boned, but sedo's purchase contract has a clause that states that if you don't get the domain, you can demand specific performance instead of a refund
<pikajude>
which is pretty sweet
<jfhbrook>
a pretty important domain, I take it?
<jfhbrook>
also, "specific performance" ?
<pikajude>
specific performance is legal speak for the judge will tell the seller to transfer my domain
<pikajude>
just a refund does not suffice
<jfhbrook>
exciting!
<pikajude>
so exciting
<pikajude>
this is almost going to fix my intense depressive episode
<ljharb>
what's the domain?
<pikajude>
i'm not telling! i'm so paranoid about losing it now
<ljharb>
lol k
<gnomon>
Speak not of the devil, lest they appear [and gank your domain name].
