L2[00:02:03] <Amanda> I built the station to
be right-handed, my tracks are left-handed
L3[00:02:06] <Amanda> Oops
L4[00:13:42]
<JasonS>
gotta be careful about chirality
L5[00:40:50] <Izzy> thinkin about
L6[00:40:57] <Izzy> an A285 to replace my
X220
L7[01:09:06] <Amanda> There, all the
temporary tracks replaced with dual-line rails, and as a result now
the new power plant is plugged in again. Also the sky-highway is
gone and replaced with surface-level rails
L8[01:10:15] <Amanda> Now I just need to put
down signals, and then I can finally start on the massine iron
smeltery I'm planning

"zzzmews". Weird.

You beat Forecaster's previous record of 3 hours, 3 minutes and 29
seconds (By 2 hours, 45 minutes and 10 seconds)! I hope you're
happy!
L16[02:12:02] <MichiBot> Vaur's new record
is 5 hours, 48 minutes and 40 seconds! Vaur also gained 0.011
(0.00275 x 4) tonk points for stealing the tonk. Position #2 =>

burgs
L56[10:41:17] <MichiBot> Forecaster: Eeny,
meeny, miny, burgs.
L57[10:41:25]
<Forecaster> yeah okay
L58[10:41:57] <lily> Forecaster: What if
your Slow Math:tm: result is incorrect? Will you still like it if 2
+ 3 = 6?
L59[10:42:19] <lily> Gotta get those
inaccuracies in there SOMEWHERE!
L60[10:42:26]
<Forecaster> of course, that just means I
get to start over and take another week
L61[10:42:34]
<Forecaster> what's not to like
L62[10:43:27] <lily> Speaking of
inaccuracies, I wonder if you could implement something like the
pentium FDIV bug, but for IDIV instead and deliberate
L63[10:43:30] <lily> Cursed math
L64[10:43:50]
<Nadja>
lily: That just means that the identity element of your addition is
-1, no biggie
L65[10:44:48] <Corded> > <lily>
Speaking of inaccuracies, I wonder if you could implement s…
L66[10:44:49]
<ff_66>
thats just transistors that you put at the wrong place
L67[10:45:35]
<ff_66> but
if integer division is not working then a lot of applications may
break
L68[10:46:01] <lily> That's part of the
fun~
L69[10:46:25] <Corded> > <lily>
That's part of the fun~
L70[10:46:25]
<ff_66> at
this point just use the game corruptor for minecraft java
L71[10:46:25] *
Amanda stirs awake, looks around
L72[10:46:32] <lily> I think I saw a mod
somewhere that swapped sin and cos
L73[10:46:37]
<ff_66>
already tested this and results are wild
L74[10:47:05] <lily> Unrelated, I hate how
Discord on Linux doesn't autoupdate itself
L75[10:47:12] <Corded> > <lily> I
think I saw a mod somewhere that swapped sin and cos
L76[10:47:12]
<ff_66> the
game corruptor also has a "detonate JVM" mode where it
swaps thing like true become false
L77[10:47:26] <lily> Since the only thing
that a package update changes is one number in
build_info.json
L78[10:47:31] <lily> And the app knows what
the version SHOULD be
L79[10:47:39] <lily> So there's no reason
it can't change it itself
L80[10:47:40] <lily> %sip
L81[10:47:40] <MichiBot> You drink a rising
tomato potion (New!). lily feels slightly slower.
L82[10:47:47] <Corded> > <lily>
Unrelated, I hate how Discord on Linux doesn't autoupdate i…
L83[10:47:47]
<ff_66> did
you use the .deb version ?
L84[10:47:57]
<ff_66>
autoupdate on discord works for me
L85[10:47:59] <lily> ...No
L86[10:48:00] <lily> I use Arch
L87[10:48:07] <lily> But also it makes you
download the deb anwyay
L88[10:48:11] <lily> s/anwyay/anyway
L89[10:48:11] <MichiBot> <lily> But
also it makes you download the deb anyway
L90[10:48:15] <lily> So the point is the
same
L91[10:48:20] <lily> It's a 75MB download
to change one byte
L92[10:48:25] <lily> Maybe two
L93[10:48:44]
<ff_66> i
installed from the ubuntu software app and now its autoupdating
fine
L94[10:48:56] <lily> Not that kind of
autoupdating
L95[10:49:03] <lily> Auto-updating as in,
the app does it itself
L96[10:49:10] <lily> Without your package
manager redownloading it
L97[10:49:16] <Corded> > <lily>
Auto-updating as in, the app does it itself
L98[10:49:16]
<ff_66> it
does itself
L99[10:49:32] <lily> Do you have to
download a deb or anything when you update?
L100[10:49:40]
<ff_66> i
have regularly notifications about closing the app and let the
updater do the job
L101[10:49:58] <lily> When it says
"Must be your lucky day, there's a new update"?
L102[10:50:01]
<ff_66> and
the shop doesn't do anything either
L103[10:50:05] <lily> And it gives you the
options to:
L104[10:50:13] <lily> download a deb,
download a tarball, or "I'll figure ito ut
L106[10:50:42] <Corded> > <lily>
download a deb, download a tarball, or "I'll figure ito
ut
L107[10:50:43]
<ff_66> no
it just send me a notification, i close the app and it is
updated
L108[10:50:47] <lily> Strange.
L109[10:50:57] <lily> Maybe your package
manager updates in background?
L110[10:51:09]
<ff_66> the
version from the shop is not the same as the .deb one
L111[10:51:11]
<Forecaster> Maybe it's maybelline
L112[10:51:15] <lily> "The
shop"...?
L113[10:51:30] <Corded> > <lily>
"The shop"...?
L114[10:51:30]
<ff_66> i
mean the Ubuntu software app
L115[10:51:47] <lily> The app that's just
a fancy frontend to apt?
L116[10:51:50]
<ff_66> its
just longer to say
L117[10:51:51] <lily> That app?
L118[10:51:55]
<ff_66>
yes
L119[10:52:04] <lily> So your package
manager is still doing all the work
L120[10:52:09]
<ff_66>
no
L121[10:52:33]
<ff_66>
wait till an update releases and i'll show you what i mean
L122[10:52:52] <Corded> > <lily>
The app that's just a fancy frontend to apt?
L123[10:52:52]
<Nadja>
Isn't it flatpack now?
L124[10:52:57]
<ff_66>
discord does it itself
L125[10:52:57]
<Lily>
Really, the best solution would be delta updates
L126[10:53:04] <Corded> >
<nadja> Isn't it flatpack now?
L127[10:53:04]
<Lily> No
idea
L128[10:53:18]
<Lily> I
don't use Ubuntu on my desktop
L129[10:53:36]

I use the server version for a couple things

L141[11:09:32] <Amanda> @nadja Ubuntu
doesn't use flatpak, they made their own special snowflake thing,
snap
L142[11:10:25] <Amanda> Which requires a
bunch of kernel patches (apparmor) and doesn't support third party
repos
L143[11:11:09] <Corded> >

L145[11:13:18] <Amanda> No you
didn't
L146[11:13:43] <Amanda> The server part of

canonical
L147[11:24:46] <lily> Canonical tends to

Meanwhile, 2024 marks me at 20 consecutive years of Slackware Linux
and FreeBSD
L170[13:20:14] <Izzy> lily: yeah,
thinkpad. Found one with 16GB which is the max it supports,
apparently, and the top-spec APU, for $270
L172[13:26:28] <lily> yeah, thinkpads are
pretty good
L173[13:26:37] <Izzy> kinda thinking my
X220 is getting a little long in the tooth
L174[13:26:43] <Izzy> it's only y'know, 15
years old this year
L175[13:26:45] <lily> damn
L176[13:26:54] <lily> Almost as old as
/me/
L177[13:27:04] <lily> Give or take (read:
only take) 4-5 years
L178[13:28:23] <Izzy> spooky
L179[13:28:50] <Izzy> but yeah I don't
think I'll find a machine *less* compromised that meets my
needs
L180[13:30:04] <Izzy> even if the RAM is
soldered and the ethernet is a weird nonstandard pinout and it only
has 2 normal USB ports
L181[13:30:14] <lily> the ethernet is
nonstandard?
L182[13:30:22] <Izzy> and doesn't have a
ThinkLight
L183[13:30:28] <Izzy> yeah it has some
slimline thing you need a dongle or dock for
L184[13:30:37] <Izzy> annoying, but at
least it has an onboard ethernet chipset
L185[13:30:43] <Izzy> because despite that
it still supports proper mechanical docking and it has a
trackpoint
L186[13:30:52] <lily> Huh, so it
does
L187[13:31:01] <lily> Consider an A475 if
you can find 'em cheap :P
L188[13:31:09] <Izzy> 1080p screen and AMD
APU are compelling also
L189[13:31:13] <Izzy> I can get an A485
for about the same price
L190[13:31:19] <Izzy> but I value the smol
size
L192[13:31:40] <lily> I have the 475
L193[13:31:51] <Izzy> not sure what it is
about the A485 but that model number makes me think of Acorn
L194[13:32:00] <Izzy> or maybe Amiga
L195[13:50:05] <lunar_sam> huh, i've been
using linux for uhhhhhh
L196[13:50:23] <lunar_sam> probably the
better part of a decade now, i believe
L197[13:55:36] <lily> which distro?

<Forecaster> %tonk
L199[13:58:23] <MichiBot> Crud!

hours, 28 minutes and 49 seconds)! I hope you're happy!
L200[13:58:24] <MichiBot> Forecaster's new
record is 5 hours, 28 minutes and 49 seconds! No points gained for
stealing from yourself. (Lost out on 0.00548)
L201[13:59:47] <lunar_sam> i originally
ran linux mint, set up bedrock because i wanted newer packages
iirc, then eventually just installed arch at some point
L202[14:00:00] <lunar_sam> when i was
running mint i still dual booted tho so lmao
L203[14:14:52] <Amanda> I'm a serial
distro-hopper
L204[14:17:27] <Izzy> I used arch for ages
but ended up using one of the mint machines I set up for family.
kinda just didn't stop, so here we are.
L205[14:27:48]
<Ocawesome101> lily: re discord updates,
that's good to know. the `discord_arch_electron` package makes it

L492[19:05:24]

then why did you choose 14th gen then ? at that time of the year
its better picking AMD because of upgrades plus 14th gen is
unstable
L509[19:15:17]

Fair.
L523[19:18:11]
<Lily> It's
more like Intel rarely has upgrade paths
L524[19:18:35]
<Ocawesome101> intel upgrade path is new
motherboard usually

<LilyflowerFDL> It's basically just "Watch where you're

Proverbs 4 is the fathers teachings
L529[19:19:05]

Ah
L530[19:19:06]
<ff_66>
what the hell is that text filling half the screen
L531[19:19:16]
<Nadja>
it's basically "My son" and then lots of stuff you all
know anyway
L532[19:19:18]
<Ocawesome101> sometimes they'll keep it
the same for a generation or smth
L533[19:19:26]
<Nadja> And
some … downright homoerotic stuff too.
L534[19:19:26]

L539[19:19:53] <Corded> >
<ff_66> if you don't need a big processor then :
L540[19:19:53] <Corded> 1. buy an i3
L541[19:19:53] <Corded> 2. go…
L542[19:19:53]
<Forecaster> Okay, first off, I didn't
choose any processor, it was a pre-built system
L543[19:19:53]
<Forecaster> Second, when I ordered it the
news that there were self destructive CPUs was not wide
spread
L544[19:20:05]
<Ocawesome101> one can abstain from
religion i think
L545[19:20:22] <Corded> >
<LilyflowerFDL> ...Does abstinence count in this

your PFP.

<Ocawesome101> agnostic is the correct
term though
L550[19:20:54]

anyone ever told you it looks a lot like a lesbian flag at a small

L552[19:21:07]

You're the first!
L553[19:21:13]

Well, it does :P
L554[19:21:14]

Anyway, not lesbian either. :P
L555[19:21:23]
<Lily> (Or
maybe I'm just biased)
L556[19:21:26]
<ff_66> 1.
if you have the knowledge, its cheaper building yourself
L557[19:21:26]
<ff_66> 2.
there is no reason why you chose intel when 7000 CPUs were
out
L558[19:21:55]
<Ocawesome101> intel does occasionally do
things better than AMD, and also they're pretty competitive
regardless
L559[19:22:05] <Corded> >
<ff_66> 1. if you have the knowledge, its cheaper building
yourself…
L560[19:22:05]
<Forecaster> That's not always true, and
again, I didn't choose it
L561[19:22:21] <Corded> >
<Ocawesome101> intel does occasionally do things better than
AMD, and also…
L562[19:22:22]
<ff_66> not
on price,
L563[19:22:22]
<ff_66> not
on upgrades,
L564[19:22:22]
<ff_66> not
in gaming performance
L565[19:22:55]
<ff_66> but
if you're streaming or editing vids then yes its worth it because
of the 24 cores
L566[19:25:14]
<Forecaster> Also I value my time more
than money
L567[19:28:55] <Amanda> But time is
money
L568[19:29:08] <Amanda> and money is the
root of all evil... so Chronos must be stopped!

L574[19:30:37]
<ff_66> no,
money just = power
L575[19:30:44]
<ff_66> but
power is bad
L576[19:31:45]
<Nadja>
Okay lily very important: If you find weird writing on your
forehead do not, I repeat, *do not* try to get it off.
L577[19:32:20] <lily> Good to know
L578[19:32:45]
<Nadja> If
you're a golem there's a 99% chance that it's part of whats
animating you and you might kill yourself if you do. So … no
scratching.
L579[19:33:57]
<ff_66> and
where are the writings on the iron golems ? inside the pumpkin
?
L580[19:34:19] <Amanda> You know golems
existed before Minecraft, right?
L581[19:34:48] <Amanda> %choose
laptopnaptime?
L582[19:34:48] <MichiBot> Amanda:
Whatever you're thinking, don't.
L583[19:34:50]
<Forecaster> incidentally when I started
my computer today it was making a weird noise... I think one of my
hard drives may have begun failing... I'm getting hard drive
failures with an alarmingly high frequency...
L584[19:34:55] <lily> Are modern-day
robots technically steel golems
L585[19:35:23] <lily> Or maybe sand,
because silicon
L586[19:35:36] <Corded> >
<Forecaster> incidentally when I started my computer today
it was making…
L587[19:35:37]
<ff_66>
meanwhile me getting full speed fan noises twice a month for no

L588[19:36:14]
<Forecaster> that's... a mild concern in
comparison... but okay
L589[19:36:27] <Corded> > <lily>
Are modern-day robots technically steel golems
L590[19:36:27]
<Lily>
Totally unrelated why are robogirls so cool
L591[19:36:45] <Corded> >
<LilyflowerFDL> Totally unrelated why are robogirls so
cool
L592[19:36:45]
<Forecaster> because overheating is bad
for computers
L593[19:37:16] <lily> Actually, I think
Zen 4 is designed to run hot
L594[19:37:40] <Corded> > <lily>
Are modern-day robots technically steel golems
L595[19:37:40]
<Nadja>
According to the golem of MHR"L most certainly not, according
to Bal Shem Tov … yes actually. So maybe, instructions
unclear.
L596[19:37:47] <lily> the boost apparently
has a temperature target of ~90C
L597[19:38:14] <lily> it'll push as much
power as it (safely) can until it hits that, and then throttle to
stay around there
L598[19:38:31] <lily> but I rarely ever
hit past 75
L599[19:38:41] <lily> This isn't an X
though
L600[19:39:14]
<Forecaster> ssh, don't say that or the
musk will be summoned!
L602[19:40:15]
<Lily>
...Was my first thought on seeing a spinny rainbow *really* a
nerdfact?
L603[19:40:27] <Corded> >
<LilyflowerFDL> ...Was my first thought on seeing a spinny
rainbow *really*…
L604[19:40:27]
<Nadja>
Nerd.
L605[19:40:46]
<Lily> and
my second thought was the xkcd
L607[19:41:19]
<Lily>
Yeah, that one!
L608[19:42:45]
<Forecaster> also, before the noises
started in the computer, I was starting CP2077, but I could tell
something was wonky as soon as my save loaded
L609[19:42:56]
<Forecaster> the interface was missing a
few things
L610[19:43:12]
<Forecaster> namely most icons, and
nothing worked
L611[19:43:36]
<Forecaster> I tried to summon my vehicle
but nothing happened, at which point I noticed there was no icon on
the hud element
L612[19:43:41]
<Lily> Oh
dear
L613[19:43:53]
<Lily>
Hope, uh, you haven't anything important on the drive
L614[19:44:08]
<Lily>
(that isn't already backed up)
L615[19:44:10]
<Forecaster> I shut everything down and
thought "I'll deal with it later"
L616[19:44:22]
<Forecaster> only all of my coding
projects, artwork, etc
L617[19:44:25] <lily> O h .
L618[19:44:34] <lily> Uh... Disk
image?
L619[19:44:41]
<Forecaster> it's my primary hard
drive
L620[19:44:51] <lily> well that's not
great
L621[19:45:00] <lily> will it even survive
being imaged?
L622[19:45:04]
<Forecaster> I'm just going to pull it
out, plug it into a different computer, and attempt to pull
everything to a different drive
L623[19:45:22] <lily> if the other drive
is same or bigger size, consider (maybe) dd
L624[19:45:29]
<Forecaster> and hope it's not completely
dead like the last drive that failed on me
L625[19:45:40]
<Forecaster> I don't know what that
is
L626[19:45:45] <lily> oh.
L627[19:46:21] <lily> uh, it's a very
common linux tool for copying data from point A to B; if you have a
live USB around it can be a lifesaver
L628[19:46:30] <lily> very very good for
making whole-disk images
L629[19:46:36] <lily> or cloning one disk
to another
L630[19:46:52] <lily> or for /erasing/ a
disk, for that matter!
L631[19:48:07]
<Lily>
there's also ddrescue
L632[19:48:09]
<Forecaster> I used to have a boot disk
somewhere for something called "[someone]'s unstoppable
copier"...
L633[19:48:10]
<Lily>
which might be very good here
L634[19:48:59]
<Forecaster> which was a bootable system
that was just for copying a disk without stopping for any
errors
L635[19:49:28]
<Forecaster> although this was like a
decade ago, wonder if that still exists
L636[19:49:36]
<Lily>
ddrescue has error handling, I think
L637[19:50:19]
<Lily> if a
live USB is Ubuntu-based, you want `gddrescue`, *not*
`ddrescue`
L638[19:50:27]
<Lily>
ddrescue on ubuntu is the semirelated tool `dd_rescue`
L639[19:51:04]
<Forecaster> I don't have any live usbs,
so I'd have to make one
L640[19:51:10]
<Lily> on
Arch, only `ddrescue` (GNU ver) is available in repos, not
`dd_rescue`
L641[19:51:45] <Corded> >
<Forecaster> I don't have any live usbs, so I'd have to make
one
L642[19:51:46]
<Lily> if
you're comfortable working only a terminal, then an archiso might
legitimately be a good idea
L643[19:52:02]
<Lily> I
keep one on a USB at all times
L644[19:52:21]

L650[19:53:22]
<Nadja>
Isn't Ventoy mired in controversy for their behaviour at the
moment? ^^'
L651[19:53:28]
<Lily>
Oh?
L652[19:53:37]
<Lily> I'm
not aware of anything like that, enlighten me
L653[19:54:02]
<Nadja>
Large amounts of blobs in their repo making them effectively closed
source, and lately pushing everybody very hard to use their
tool.
L654[19:54:09]
<Lily> Huh,
interesting
L655[19:54:55]
<Nadja> I
know of at least three people that have independently of each other
decided to reverse engineer some of the blobs in search of a
backdoor because of their recent behaviour because it smells like
backdoor peddling to them.
L656[19:55:06]
<Lily>
interesting
L657[19:55:34]
<Forecaster> I don't think I've used
ventoy, I've used something else to create bootable usbs in the
past... I don't remember what though
L658[19:55:34] <Amanda> ... well that''d
be unfortunate
L659[19:55:40] <Amanda> I rather like
ventoy as a concept
L660[19:56:13]
<Nadja>
Hey, maybe they're just assholes!
L661[19:57:34] <Amanda> If it is
back-doored, that'd be very annoying, since I've used it to install
all my machines in the last few years

Amanda's hair turns black

yes, Amanda, Galactic deity kitten, harbinger of planetary doom and
broken universe physics. Stopped by a child safety lock.
L684[20:14:11] <Amanda> I don't have

L685[20:14:18] <lily> Sounds about right
for a cat.
L686[20:14:26]
<Forecaster> Is the lock just something
heavy someone put in front of the door?

L688[20:14:51] <lily> (speaking from
