02:27:56 <Morbus> who was talking about cutycapt today?
02:29:22 <jsled> Morbus: "<[bjoern]> it's still compiling Qt, but I've rebuilt CutyCapt anyway... it's 5 MB bigger than with Qt 4.4... for a total of almost 20 MB .exe."
02:29:32 <Morbus> thought so.
02:29:33 <jsled> It would be [bjoern]. It's always [bjoern].
02:29:38 <Morbus> i'm finally going through old bookmarks.
02:29:43 <Morbus> and i happened to have cutycapt in here.
02:29:47 <jsled> what's up, Morbass?
02:29:49 <Morbus> wondering the connection, if any.
02:30:00 <jsled> what're you gaming, these days?
02:30:12 <Morbus> console, pc, or web?
02:30:15 <jsled> Or just hanging out with your flesh and blood?
02:30:45 <jsled> most impressive, I request.
02:32:02 <Morbus> hrn. i'm not really playing anything impressive at the moment.
02:32:16 <Morbus> i'm looking foward to the sims 3, which hits tuesday.
02:32:28 <Morbus> the movie mashup creation tool in there is of prime interest (youtube vids upon request).
02:32:44 <Morbus> playing spore a little more cos of the june 23rd galactic adventures expansion (in short: make adventures. whee.)
02:32:51 <Morbus> but, other than that, same old, same old, mostly
02:33:32 <jsled> cool.
02:34:18 <jsled> I'm trying to find time to finish Chronicles of Riddick : Butcher Bay … I don't think I'll continue on to Dark Athena, though maybe to see the diference in gaes.
02:34:23 <jsled> games, even.
02:34:38 <jsled> already ordered infamous, should arrive next week.
02:34:50 <jsled> trying to motivate to Little Big Planet. :(
02:35:40 <Morbus> the IGDA writers list is all ablaze about infamous (primarily cos one of the writer's hangs out there) - why is it important? i haven't been paying attention.
02:35:46 <Morbus> i *never* got into LBP. never did.
02:36:35 * [bjoern] wrote CutyCapt, that's why
02:36:42 <Morbus> [bjoern]: ah!
02:36:52 <Morbus> i suspected it was something like that ;)
02:36:56 <[bjoern]> hehe
02:36:59 <jsled> new ip. good graphics/gameplay. good vs. evil choices, though the more dismissive end is "while it's a good option to see, it's still not *handled in any reasonable way*".
02:38:02 <jsled> it's … akin to Uncharted, as near as I can tell. A solid new game, PS3 exclusive, brings some new elements, but it's evolution, not revolution
02:38:11 <jsled> But especially in May, people are all over it.
02:39:15 <jsled> Riddick is good, but I Love the Riddick movies, in which I am apparently the minority.
02:39:17 <Morbus> heh, yeah.
02:40:47 <jsled> I still say Chronicles of Riddick is one of the best hard-scifi movies I've ever seen; the dialog is not as bad as all that, and the movie overall more than makes up for it. Pitch Black is just a solid good scifi movie.
02:40:54 <jsled> though the two are very dfferent.
02:41:52 <Morbus> i haven't seen any of the pitch black series.
02:46:42 *** [bjoern] has quit ("Quit")
02:47:16 <procto> what is "hard" about its scifi?
02:47:35 <procto> "hard scifi" usually refers to technically/scientifically "accurate" scifi
02:47:43 <procto> or do you mean it as opposed to fantasy?
02:47:45 <procto> etc.
02:51:58 <jsled> good point. I guess I'm misuing hard-scifi.
02:52:33 <jsled> in Chronicles … there's all sorts of critical, unexplained, yet significant fiction.
02:53:01 <jsled> Like the propulsion drives of the necromonger ships, and the deep-space communiction.
02:53:25 <jsled> Plus, the general darkness of the material, which I guess I relate with "hard" ness.

10:39:51 <sbp> another MP has paid thousands of pounds of taxpayers' money to his family
10:40:07 <sbp> which has pretty much been the news for three straight weeks now
10:40:11 <sbp> 10 MPs are standing down so far
10:40:21 <sbp> what I like is the idea that when we elect new people...
10:40:44 <sbp> they're bound to be less corrupt. as though if we elected them before all this was known, these new people wouldn't be the sort of people to take advantage of the rules
10:40:57 <sbp> but now that these particular rules are being changed, of course, they'll be unable to take advantage of them
10:41:09 <sbp> so they'll have to look for other wonderful, spicy rules to take advantage of

11:15:10 <Morbus> morning sbp.
11:15:11 <phenny> Morbus: 08:34Z <sbp> tell Morbus oh, and the ones actually worth keeping are basically the ones you put on disobey Link Dumps anyway?
11:15:48 <Morbus> yeah, see, i have a ton of of sites that i have been keeping inside Firefox - mostly referency-sorta things. all the sites i use everyday i /don't/ bookmark cos i tend to remmeber them or tehy're in my startup.
11:16:12 <Morbus> so, to serve both as backup, but also to remove the structured hierarchy, i'm thinking of moving most everything to delicious.
11:16:20 <Morbus> years ago, i used and maintained the hierarchy.
11:16:29 <Morbus> but nowadays, i find myself using the search option in the bookmarks toolbar more often.
11:16:47 <Morbus> the only time i actually use the hierarchy is if i'm clearning out old bookmarks.
11:16:52 <Morbus> i just use bookmarks differently than i did long ago.
11:17:01 <Morbus> so moving to the delicious extension seems to facilitate this.
11:17:47 <deltab> that's quite common, going by what Aza Raskin's been saying recently
11:18:13 <Morbus> linky?
11:18:40 <Morbus> i would still use firefox's bookmark thing for in utero bookmarks.
11:18:56 <Morbus> i literally put four or five in there a day, and only about 1 in 10 actually becomes decent enough for saving (be it in the hierarchy or on delicious).
11:19:08 <Morbus> i would hate to have those all spammed to delicious (and disobey)
11:19:58 <Morbus> http://www.disobey.com/detergent/lists/bookmarks
11:20:07 <Morbus> that's an *old* version of my bookmarks - maybe two years old.
11:20:18 <Morbus> the hierarchy has changed slightly since then, but pretty much the same n concept.
11:21:49 <Morbus> heh. funny. his first blog post is about jetpack and i just heard about jetpack last night, after deleting a bookmark for ubiquity
11:29:10 <Morbus> deltab: how do you use bookmarks?
11:30:56 <sbp> search: yeah, similar here
11:31:05 <sbp> so I found that I was really searching for almost everything
11:31:09 <Morbus> sbp: where's all your phenny google code?
11:31:11 <sbp> and I tried to find what things I wasn't searching for
11:31:19 <sbp> and found that there's only like a half dozen things I don't
11:31:23 <sbp> so those I put on my start page
11:31:25 <Morbus> yeah.
11:31:30 <sbp> the webservices code? hmm, dunno
11:31:31 <sbp> hang on
11:31:36 <Morbus> like, i have a whole folder for freeware images.
11:31:44 <Morbus> i don't think i have *ever* used a freeware image.

11:32:04 <Morbus> why do i keep 'em around? i have no idea. but will i have the prescient in the future to remember to look at Flickr's CC image pool?
11:32:10 <Morbus> I'm not sure that I will. So I keep them around.
11:32:14 <sbp> note that nslater maintains phenny-ws, not me
11:32:31 <sbp> yeah, I see what you mean

11:34:41 <sbp> ah! ehheh, I see
11:34:45 <Morbus> thanks.
11:34:45 <sbp> you asked for the Google Code
11:34:51 <Morbus> ah!
11:34:51 <sbp> I thought you meant the code-on-google
11:34:58 <Morbus> yes. the Google code, not the Google Code.
11:35:01 <sbp> aye. hehe
11:35:04 <Morbus> DUH.

14:47:03 <sbp> because you know, sed is bollocks
14:47:10 <sbp> and then I hooked it up to an IRC bot
14:47:21 <sbp> and then made some stuff to edit HTML and Atom feeds
14:47:30 <sbp> so I can weblog from IRC! (again!)
14:47:38 <sbp> isn't that EXCITING!
14:47:47 <[bjoern]> It's oldskool twitter.
14:47:51 <sbp> exactly
14:48:03 <sbp> like we were doing on here in 2003
14:48:09 <[bjoern]> Yeah I recall.
14:48:23 <sbp> ...and then again in 2004, but that wasn't a weblog
14:48:36 <sbp> anyway, this time it's even more stupid
14:49:02 <[bjoern]> now that is exciting

17:41:42 <[bjoern]> Does a string start with its first character, or before the first character?
17:41:46 <[bjoern]> (answer is obvious)
17:42:47 <sbp> it can't have started yet if it's before the first character
17:43:05 <sbp> that's an empty document that you put before the string
17:43:10 <sbp> to let people know the string is coming
17:44:16 <[bjoern]> what if the coming string is empty?

17:46:18 <sbp> 'abc' = string
17:46:22 <[bjoern]> so can you point at the start of an empty string?

17:46:58 <sbp> hmm, this is how it must have felt when they discovered zero
17:47:06 <sbp> "you can't have zero of something!"
17:48:42 <sbp> [bjoern]: but when you have a python string...
17:48:49 <sbp> you can do 'abc'[0]
17:48:54 <sbp> which gives 'a'
17:48:58 <sbp> so the 0 indexes a character
17:49:05 <sbp> or you can do 'abc'[0:1]
17:49:08 <sbp> which also gives 'a'
17:49:23 <[bjoern]> You just wait for py4k
17:49:28 <[bjoern]> Then they will break that too.
17:49:29 <sbp> so the 0 and the 1 index positions between characters (or between epsilon and the first character)
17:49:51 <sbp> probably...
17:49:52 <[bjoern]> .py 'abc'[0:0]
17:50:23 <sbp> ubrokeit!
17:50:28 <sbp> .py 'abc'[0:1]

18:43:44 <[bjoern]> i'm sure that's so the algorithm is more generic
