| <siccness> pub > * :D | |
| <hysterio> i can think of things that are better than the pub | |
| <siccness> I can't :| | |
| <hysterio> not many though | |
| <hysterio> alcohol: the cause of and solution to all of lifes problems | |
| <siccness> I disagree | |
| <siccness> It's just the solution to all of lifes problems | |
| <hysterio> hehehe | |
| <hysterio> brb | |
| <siccness> :) | |
| <siccness> 40C in melb | |

| <Hit3k> yes well | |
| <Hit3k> its not like i'd ever get drunk and do bad stuff | |
| <Hit3k> before im 18 anyway | |
| <siccness> Hahahaha | |
| <siccness> Oh dear, you will change, Hit3k :P | |
| <siccness> and if you dont, you're one of the few :P | |

| <siccness> you go to knox school yea? | |
| <Hit3k> no | |
| <siccness> ah | |
| <Hit3k> they probably wouldnt let me in | |
| <siccness> they let anyone in | |
| <siccness> although that place is becoming increasingly filled with more foreigners each year | |
| <Hit3k> yeah i've noticed that seeing as i see them all walking/in their cars/on the bus on my way home from school | |
| <siccness> heh | |
| <siccness> a mste of mine came from that school | |
| <siccness> he got expelled for being punched in the face :/ | |
| <Hit3k> wth | |
| <siccness> yup | |
| <Hit3k> shoulda sued | |
| <siccness> you get expelled there for defending yourself, makes sense | |
| <siccness> They're teaching you good life practice, when you get punched out side of school, don't do anything, just get put in a coma. | |
| <Hit3k> hm i suppose cause you're the one likely to get sued | |

| <siccness> the other 5% is microwaved | |
| <merlin-linux> hehe | |
| <siccness> Hewitt is getting MURDERED. | |
| <siccness> Man Tennis sucks as a sport. | |
| <Davo_Dinkum> Bagthatis is a top bloke but | |
| <siccness> That's the unshaven foreigner year? | |
| <siccness> *yeah? | |
| <Davo_Dinkum> yeah from Cyprus | |
| <siccness> Yeah, he seems cool. | |
| <Davo_Dinkum> He came 2nd last year | |
| <siccness> Shame about the twats yesterday | |
| <siccness> (the two groups bashing eachother) | |
| <Davo_Dinkum> Yeah | |
| <Davo_Dinkum> His (Bagthatis's) attitude is spot on though. | |
| <siccness> Mark Robertson said it best on SEN, "These guys are wankers, cops should take em out the back and belt the shit outta them" | |
| <Davo_Dinkum> SEN? | |
| <siccness> Sports Entertainment Network (Radio Station) | |
| <Davo_Dinkum> Ah | |

| <siccness> Yeah | |
| <siccness> I see nothing wrong with it. | |
| <Davo_Dinkum> WTF were they saying? It's inappropriate or some shit? | |
| <siccness> It's sport, emotion flying everywhere. What do you expect the guy to do? Keep his jaw tight and play tennis? | |
| <Davo_Dinkum> Why not? The other players do it. | |
| <siccness> Yeah, they're all foreigners though. | |
| <siccness> No one cares about them | |
| <Davo_Dinkum> lmao tightass | |
| <Davo_Dinkum> Why doesn't Justin Kositschke have a WIkipedia entry?!? | |
| <siccness> tennis is boring as it is, having some character in the sport is what draws people in :P | |
| <Davo_Dinkum> like bagthatis | |
| <siccness> probably cuz i didnt spell his name | |

| <Davo_Dinkum> Hit3k: Nah too big | |
| <Davo_Dinkum> <12" for me. | |
| <Hit3k> all their <12" are > $2000 | |
| <Davo_Dinkum> -_- | |
| <merlin-linux> i am happy with my laptop as i have a padded laptop backpack for it | |
| <Hit3k> merlin-linux, you have linux on your laptop? | |
| <Simplechat> hey | |
| <merlin-linux> Hit3k: hell yeah | |
| <Hit3k> I want to put it on mine but i require windows on it | |
| <merlin-linux> Hit3k: i will never go back to MS crap | |
| <Simplechat> does anybody here have a stable connection for a small person in need of a shell? | |
| <siccness> I'm forced to use MS crap | |
| <Hit3k> might partition it up though | |
| <siccness> Except the TAFE campus I'm attending use Linux and Linux only from now on :D | |
| <Simplechat> :( | |
| <siccness> So everyone is screwed except me | |
| <Davo_Dinkum> LOL | |
| <Hit3k> yay! | |
| <Hit3k> siccness, swinburne? | |
| <siccness> Yeah | |
| <siccness> Lilydale | |
| <siccness> Wantirna/Lilydale had to merge for my course | |
| <merlin-linux> Simplechat: what you need the shell account for | |
| <Hit3k> ah | |
| <Hit3k> that sucks | |
| <siccness> So now i'm stuck with a group of: a) dickheads, b) idiots who think they know and c) people who that do know | |
| <siccness> So theres about 80% of dickheads, 10% who think they know, 10% who know | |
| <Hit3k> hah | |
| <siccness> I actually mix in with all those groups :D | |
| <Simplechat> research project, basically i'm spidering a portion of the net (albiet slowly), before using that data to try and build a simple searchable semantic net | |
| <Hit3k> they dont keep coming to you for help do they | |
| <Simplechat> my connection is out most days | |
| <siccness> Hit3k: They do :( | |
| <siccness> and I can tell you, it's fscking annoying | |
| <Simplechat> so i can't get enough data to start to build the dataset | |
| <Simplechat> (i don't need much bw, just a few html files per minute/5 minutes, < 1kbs ) | |
| <siccness> I get questions like "why doesnt my internet work in linux" "beats me man" "you're the linux guru fix it" "wtf? I dunno shit about networking" | |
| <siccness> then there are questions like "how can i change to dual-channel in windows?" | |
| <Simplechat> enough info, merlin? | |
| <Simplechat> :( | |
| <Hit3k> Simplechat, you cant find a free shell service somewhere? | |
| <Simplechat> i can | |
| <siccness> so do so. | |
| <Simplechat> and i'm using m-net.arbornet who basically lets me use their spare cpu time for processing | |
| <Simplechat> but i can't access the internet through there | |
| <Simplechat> hence my problem | |
| <Hit3k> http://www.rootshell.be | |
| <Simplechat> do you think they would take "spidering" as an acceptable use? | |
| <Hit3k> well i dunno they might | |
| <Hit3k> just explain what you want to use it for and see what happens | |
| <Simplechat> hmmm. | |
| <Simplechat> ok | |
| <Hit3k> Uranus has a dark spot.. | |
| <Simplechat> oh | |
| <Simplechat> 5 meh | |
| <Simplechat> *meg | |
| <Simplechat> this is a small problem | |
| <Simplechat> meh | |
| <Davo_Dinkum> Spidering? | |
| <Hit3k> wait by spidering you mean like what google does? | |
| <Simplechat> to a point | |
| <Simplechat> it spiders pages, gathers urls, and parses what sentences it can and then saves that data into basically a database | |
| <Simplechat> which you then query at a later date | |
| <Simplechat> brb | |
| <Simplechat> back | |
| <siccness> so basically a cache | |
| <Simplechat> somewhat | |
| <Simplechat> its more of an index | |
| <siccness> How so? | |
| <Simplechat> because of the way that it indexes the parse tree after it makes it, so that it can be queried | |
| <Simplechat> so that you can ask it for all the sentences that were about "dog" for example. | |
| <Simplechat> or about "dogs" doing something to "postmen" | |
| <Simplechat> to which it might find a news story of a dog biting a postman, and return a sentence or two from there (along with url) | |
| <Simplechat> its still very much being written | |
| <Simplechat> but it seems to be an interesting idea | |
| <Hit3k> so a search engine for words? | |
| <Simplechat> put a front end of it, and you have a naturl language search engine | |
| <Simplechat> "what is C++" "C++ is......." | |
| <Simplechat> "How do i...." "You do this...." | |
| <Simplechat> *natural | |
| <Simplechat> and i really should be heading off | |
| <Simplechat> i'll be back tomorrow afternoon | |
| <Simplechat> and i'll see if i can find a shell..... somewhere | |
| <Davo_Dinkum> By the seaside. | |
| <Hit3k> man | |
| <Hit3k> all the good ideas for websites are taken | |
| <siccness> :| | |
| <Hit3k> that, or i cant think of any that havnt been done | |
| <merlin-linux> penn and teller rock | |
| <siccness> they're ok | |
| <siccness> they tell it like it is | |
| <siccness> but they dont explore the other side | |
| <merlin-linux> yep | |
| <Hit3k> siccness, your power go out today? | |
| <siccness> Nope | |
| <siccness> Burwood Hwy did tho | |
| <Hit3k> weird... mine didnt | |
| <siccness> Burwood Hwy K-Mart area did | |
| <Hit3k> oh | |
| <Hit3k> up there | |
| <Davo_Dinkum> damn gaim is a good IRC client | |
| <Hit3k> I hope you're being sarcastic | |
| <Davo_Dinkum> No | |
| <Davo_Dinkum> I like it | |
| <Davo_Dinkum> it does what I want | |
| <siccness> GAIM is shit. | |
| <siccness> Period. | |
| <siccness> Hey Cyvros | |
| <Cyvros> siccness: Howdy. | |
| <Cyvros> I beg to differ. | |
| <Davo_Dinkum> Beat it WM boy | |
| <siccness> (as an IRC client) | |
| <Cyvros> Davo_Dinkum: WM boy? Me? | |
| <siccness> GAIM MSN is cool | |
| <Cyvros> siccness: Ah. | |
| <Davo_Dinkum> No siccness | |
| <Cyvros> Davo_Dinkum: LOL. | |
| * Cyvros rubs the back of his neck. | |
| <Hit3k> god im so bored | |
| <siccness> Hit3k: yeah get pissed. | |
| <Cyvros> Yeah, you kinda have a point there. Need more plugins. | |
| <Hit3k> Cyvros, your power go out? | |
| <Cyvros> Hit3k: Howdy. | |
| <siccness> that's the best way to battle boredom | |
| <Cyvros> Hit3k: Nope. | |
| <Davo_Dinkum> Hit3k: Buy me a VAIO then ^_^ | |
| <Hit3k> siccness, I cant dad said he'd kick me out if i ever came home drunk before i turned 18 :p | |
| <Cyvros> I'm in Preston - Thornbury/Northcote went out. :D | |
| <siccness> ROFL | |
| <Cyvros> Hehehe. | |
| <Cyvros> I'm gonna get myself another 1 gig flash tomorrow. | |
| <Hit3k> i got one for free | |
| <Cyvros> And I'm gonna see if I can get Wolfix on it. I've heard good reviews. | |
| <Cyvros> Hit3k: So did I. Last birthday. :D | |
| <Hit3k> LOL | |
| <siccness> I think the first time I got pissed when I was 12 years old, I was at my grandpa's house with the family, dad said I could have some of the homebrews, 6 beers later I was gone. | |
| <merlin-linux> xchat is a good irc client | |
| <Davo_Dinkum> Cyvros: Is that another distro? | |
| <Cyvros> siccness: I think the first time I got pissed was when I was 37. | |
| <Hit3k> irssi is a great client | |
| <Cyvros> Davo_Dinkum: Yeah. | |
| <siccness> LOL | |
| <siccness> irssi > * | |
| <Hit3k> I wouldnt use it for freenode though | |
| <Cyvros> Some guy here recommended it to me. | |
| <Hit3k> to many channels here i'd forget all the numbers | |
| <Davo_Dinkum> LOL yeah | |
| <siccness> Hit3k: You get used to it. | |
| <Davo_Dinkum> Tried weechat | |
| <Davo_Dinkum> ? | |
| <siccness> If you follow a logical and consistant structure | |
| <Hit3k> ah | |
| <siccness> you know what each number is | |
| <siccness> if you dont | |
| <Cyvros> I mainly stick to Gaim for logs - unless I can trade logs with other clients, of course. | |
| <siccness> download the script that tells you what each number/channelname is | |
| <Hit3k> this is really the only room i chat in on freenode | |
| <Hit3k> I just idle in the others | |
| <siccness> 'chanact.pl' i think it's called. | |
| <siccness> Cyvros: A mate of mines working on some software to convert irssi logs into how it's laidout in gaim | |
| <Cyvros> siccness: Neat. I just need it the other way around. <_< | |
| <siccness> gaim style --> irssi? | |
| <Hit3k> http://www.irssi.org/scripts/scripts/chanact.pl =D | |
| <siccness> or irssi --> gaim? | |
| <Cyvros> siccness: The former. | |
| <Davo_Dinkum> irssi has logs? | |
| <Cyvros> I'm tempted to actually use irssi. | |
| <siccness> Davo_Dinkum: What the hell | |
| <siccness> Of course it logs :P | |
| <Cyvros> xkcd! | |
| <Davo_Dinkum> !xkcd | |
| <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about xkcd - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi | |
| * Cyvros is tempted to take up programming full-time just to make a command called xkcd. | |
| <Cyvros> I dunno, make it read the RSS feed. | |
| <Cyvros> Davo_Dinkum: Web comic. | |
| <Davo_Dinkum> Ah | |
| <Cyvros> Started by this former NASA robotics guy. | |
| <siccness> A boring webcomic :P | |
| * Davo_Dinkum googles | |
| <Hit3k> I'm gonna do that | |
| * Hit3k does it in perl and beats Cyvros | |
| <Cyvros> Hit3k: DAMN YOU! | |
| * Davo_Dinkum cbf looking for xkcd | |
| <Cyvros> I don't know regular expressions! | |
| <siccness> ROFL | |
| <Hit3k> hahaha | |
| <Cyvros> siccness: Bah. | |
| <Davo_Dinkum> Cyvros: Hello and goodbye for starters. | |
| <Cyvros> Davo_Dinkum: ? | |
| <Davo_Dinkum> "Regular expressions" ^_^ | |
| <siccness> Cyvros: a regular expression, either an attempt at humour or just lack of knowledge :P | |
| <Cyvros> Ah. | |
| <Cyvros> Hang on. | |
| <Davo_Dinkum> siccness: Both | |
| <siccness> lol | |
| <Davo_Dinkum> Obviously it's something to do with perl programming | |
| <Cyvros> Davo_Dinkum: http://xkcd.com/c208.html | |
| <siccness> Davo_Dinkum: not restricted to perl | |
| <siccness> You can use regular expressions on google | |
| <Davo_Dinkum> Cyvros: No I have enough crap to read online | |
| <Daemon> regular expressions are confusing as hell to start with but very powerful | |
| <siccness> an example of reg. exp would be: Da?o_Dinkum | |
| <Cyvros> I don't even know what the hell they are, so I'm gonna just leave here. | |
| <siccness> where question mark can be replaced by 1 character | |
| <Cyvros> siccness: As in using the question mark as a wild-card of sorts? | |
| <Cyvros> Like searching for *.txt? | |
| <siccness> wild-card is asterix | |
| <siccness> where it can be more than 1 character | |
| <siccness> exactly, Cyvros | |
| <Cyvros> siccness: Ah. | |
| <Cyvros> Hey, cool, I'm learning something! | |
| <siccness> those are just basic ones tho | |
| <Cyvros> I love this one - http://xkcd.com/c178.html | |
| <Cyvros> siccness: Okay. | |
| <Cyvros> Hey, I'm proud with my start so far. | |
| <siccness> I dont understand that comic :| | |
| <Cyvros> siccness: I find it hilarious. :D | |
| <Cyvros> There's one which is a matrix transformation joke. I like it. Hell, I might try it in an assignment one time. | |
| <Davo_Dinkum> Damn you now I'm curious. | |
| <Davo_Dinkum> Oh that comic. | |
| <siccness> Hewitt is coming back | |
| <Hit3k> is the tennis still going? | |
| <siccness> yeah | |
| <siccness> that shit doesnt stop till like 2am | |
| <Cyvros> LOL. | |
| <Cyvros> Just imagine playing in this heat. | |
| <Hit3k> thats why they play so late | |
| <Hit3k> because of the heat | |
| <siccness> Tennis would be heaps better in the rain | |
| <siccness> Get to see the girls tops get wet | |
| <Hit3k> I had the best idea... make a site where you can read any RSS feed you search for but then i realised you can add things like that to google homepages and stuff | |
| <Hit3k> im sure their sports bra would somehow block any boobage | |
| <Cyvros> LOL. | |
| <siccness> Then the sport is hardly worth watching | |
| <Hit3k> I cant believe england won today.. even if it was just against NZ | |
| <siccness> They both played poorly | |
| <Hit3k> yeah I only saw the end of the game though | |
| <siccness> Poor fielding, poor bowling, poor batting on both teams | |
| <siccness> I woulda thought England woulda gone out sluggin a few balls | |
| <siccness> they were like 50 after 14 overs or something | |
| <siccness> that's just POOR | |
| <Hit3k> it is | |
| <Davo_Dinkum> Later! | |
| <siccness> Catch mate | |
| * Davo_Dinkum waves | |
| <Hit3k> hrm | |
| <Hit3k> LWP::Simple doesnt want to compile | |
| <siccness> aww :P | |
| * Cyvros smiles like he's about to go for your neck. | |
| <smith88> hey guys | |
| <smith88> whats happening? | |
| <Cyvros> Hiya, smith88. | |
| <smith88> just a few quick questions about the Aus LoCo group | |
| <smith88> 1. How many people are in it? | |
| <smith88> 2. How can i help? | |
| <smith88> 3. What has actually been achieved? | |
| * Cyvros slips away, unnoticed. | |
| <smith88> hehehe | |
| <smith88> never mind then if its too much work to answer them | |
| <smith88> just curious | |
| <Cyvros> I just come here for the conversation and sonatas. | |
| <smith88> fair enuf | |
| <Hit3k> sonatas? | |
| <Cyvros> Hit3k: GPL'd. | |
| <Hit3k> oh | |
| <Hit3k> God I havnt coded perl in ages.. | |
| <Cyvros> :D | |
| <Cyvros> I was, incidentally, kidding. | |
| <Hit3k> which is why i keep manuals around | |
| <Cyvros> I love Linux - I no longer have to worry about stuffing up whatever was in the clipboard by accidentally pressing Print Screen. | |
| <smith88> hmmm.....cant say i've done that | |
| <siccness> Perl sucks | |
| <smith88> has anyone tried that great shortcut Alt-crtl-backspace? | |
| <siccness> smith88: yes, it's common, used by most. | |
| <Cyvros> smith88: I do that all the time in Windows - I end up hating Print Screen. | |
| <Cyvros> smith88: That has saved me countless times. | |
| <Cyvros> Although I prefer a slight variation on it - Ctrl+Alt+Backspace. | |
| <Cyvros> You see what I did there? ;) Nifty, ey? :D | |
| <smith88> lol | |
| <siccness> almost an anagram | |
| <Cyvros> It proves my ginormousity of intellectual propertunitimisamitionious. | |
| <Cyvros> Ness. | |
| <Cyvros> Ish. | |
| <smith88> ...ity | |
| <Cyvros> Eousness. | |
| <Hit3k> BACKSPACE + CTRL + ALT | |
| <Cyvros> I wonder if that actually works. | |
| <Cyvros> I'd try it if I weren't so damned lazy. | |
| <smith88> yeah, its great in concept. but then you'd have to log in again if it worked | |
| <Hit3k> yeah | |
| <Hit3k> maybe do it before you go to bed | |
| * Cyvros cares not about logging out and logging in again continually. | |
| <smith88> i had a mate over a week ago and was trying to show linux off to him. Had beryl and everything running. He loved it except for ctrl + alt + backspace. I think he reset GDM about 100 times in one night | |
| <Cyvros> For The Great Blue Cyv uses... Openbox! | |
| <Cyvros> smith88: Gah! | |
| <Hit3k> So... I use XFCE | |
| <smith88> his fat fingers just kept finding those keys | |
| <Cyvros> Hit3k: Yeah, I'll try it, come back in and tell you about it. | |
| <Cyvros> Hit3k: Openbox r0xx0r$ and, er, pwns all, er, 31$3!!1! | |
| <smith88> thats 733t | |
| <Hit3k> Its sad cause i understood that | |
| <Cyvros> Yeah, I'm tragically l3370r. | |
| <Cyvros> Hit3k: Muahaha! | |
| <merlin-linux> siccness: this one for you >>> http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1OqEpIXm92k | |

| <siccness> Hewitt wins. | |
