@GeorgeEdison Hey long time no see :D

mateo_salta

Hi @GeorgeEdison I got a build to work on snow leopard, I put the install file up on github.

George Edison

Really? Awesome!

@TheX Still running Windows 8?

TheX

@GeorgeEdison I do still have it installed at work... I can't get in the building this week :-(, They have it closed for floor waxing...

George Edison

I see - I was just curious.

I had quite a day yesterday and this morning trying to get the Windows SDK to play nice.

TheX

3:07 AM

Yeah... I have been like a lost little puppy this week :*(

George Edison

When Microsoft released SP1 for Visual Studio 2010 Express, the update broke the Windows SDK.

...so a second update was needed. And then the command prompt disappeared.

TheX

Microsoft is retarded lol

mateo_salta

I think so, I tried it out on a system I had on an external drive, It looks like it might only work on SL...

George Edison

But if it works on SL, it should work fine on newer versions like Lion, right?

Well, if you are confident it works, I'll upload it to Launchpad and see what happens.

mateo_salta

maybe, I'm not sure how that works. It might not, it didn't work on just Leopard( one step older) Put "Snow Leopard" in description or something just in-case

George Edison

3:11 AM

Sure.

...and @jrg can give it a go when he's around maybe.

@mateo_salta: Just a suggestion for next time - it's easier to use this page than committing a binary file to the repository.

mateo_salta

oh, downloads

George Edison

What you did was fine - I just wanted to let you know there is an easier way to upload files.

msPeachy

askubuntu.com/questions/164926/… dupe for this? people should search first before they post a question.

Roland Taylor

@TheX is here.

mateo_salta

that would be better for most the single files I was doing before....

Roland Taylor

3:13 AM

Silly mortals.

TheX

OMG! so is @RolandTaylor

!!!!

Roland Taylor

Let's finish the plan!

The world is ours!

mateo_salta

cool, well later I'm sleeping

Roland Taylor

NOBODY MOVE!

mateo_salta

TheX

3:14 AM

@RolandTaylor I thought everyone was suppoised to move at this point...

Roland Taylor

I SAW THAT!

@TheX oh yeah...

TheX

MOVE OUT OF OUR WAY THAT IS!!!! MUAHAHAHAHAHA

mateo_salta

ducks behind something

Roland Taylor

:D! GET OUT OF THE WAY! NOOBS!

TheX

Hey, who you calling a noob?!?!?!

Roland Taylor

3:15 AM

@mateo_salta that's my something!

@TheX O_o myself?

mateo_salta

I found it first

TheX

@RolandTaylor good call.

Roland Taylor

I dialed the number with my eyes closed :>

TheX

@mateo_salta it doesn't matter if you found it first, we own everything.

Roland Taylor

@mateo_salta lies!

mateo_salta

3:16 AM

Roland Taylor

George Edison

3:18 AM

TheX

TheX

3:21 AM

@RolandTaylor I know you find sleep pleasurable... whether you need it or not is not the debate.

Roland Taylor

@msPeachy I could drill a hole and show up right next to you :D

Then steal the cookies and drill back to my side :D

@TheX ;)

George Edison

@mateo_salta: Now is this a 64-bit build?

TheX

@RolandTaylor actually you would probably end up in North Korea...

Roland Taylor

Oh that's cool. Me and Kim would get along just fine. I heard he's a gamer....

TheX

Kim is dead...

msPeachy

3:22 AM

@RolandTaylor if you can drill a hole big enough for you to get through

@RolandTaylor who's kim?

Roland Taylor

@msPeachy Kim Jeung Uen or however you spell that

George Edison

@RolandTaylor You know what this conversation reminds me of?

Roland Taylor

@GeorgeEdison me?

TheX

Oh you mean Kim Jong-un

Roland Taylor

Oh right

George Edison

3:23 AM

@RolandTaylor The time you got married here.

TheX

Kim Jong-un

Kim Jong-un also romanised as Kim Jong-eun or Kim Jung-eun, (born 8 January 1983 or 1984), is the current supreme leader of North Korea. He has held the titles of the First Secretary of the Workers' Party of Korea, the Chairman of the Central Military Commission, First Chairman of the National Defence Commission of North Korea, the Supreme Commander of the Korean People's Army, and also a presidium member of the Central Politburo of the Workers' Party of Korea. He was officially declared the supreme leader following the state funeral for his father, Kim Jong-il on 28 December 2011. He...

Roland Taylor

msPeachy

TheX

TheX

TheX

@RolandTaylor do you really want to play WoW with Kim, that would require you to install Windows.

Roland Taylor

@TheX :O

Unthinkable!

We'd play Urban Terror

msPeachy

@RolandTaylor what was that all about?

George Edison

Oh lol... I've almost forgotten about FlackBot.

Just for kicks, I should see if he still works.

TheX

Yeah I am sure he would be more then happy to play Urban Terror... with you... except real weapons, your hands vs. his nukes

Roland Taylor

3:27 AM

@msPeachy remember the long sad story...

that is all part of it

sad memories :(

@TheX LOL

msPeachy

@RolandTaylor oh you didn't tell me you got married lol

Roland Taylor

@msPeachy because in real life we didn't :D

we were never even in a relationship :P

TheX

Aright good night...

and I really did get married...

just for the record

Roland Taylor

@TheX good night :D

TheX

Not on here though...

Roland Taylor

3:29 AM

Dammit, @TheX I was going to tell your wife you didn't tell anyone you were married so I could collect the insurance money...

msPeachy

good night @TheX, believe me this isn't the right place to get married

Roland Taylor

She would have killed you right?

TheX

in a real church, with a real woman... (which we aren't convinced that Explorer was a woman)

George Edison

Grabs FlackBot's code and starts building it...

TheX

@RolandTaylor maybe... to bad for you.

Okay really now I am going to bed

Roland Taylor

3:30 AM

@GeorgeEdison :>

msPeachy

@RolandTaylor oh the Explorer

George Edison

3:33 AM

@FlackBot: How many users on Ask Ubuntu have more than 5000 reputation?

msPeachy

Roland Taylor

@msPeachy is he random like I am?

@FlackBot give me all of your money.

msPeachy

lol he falls in love quite easily, then his roommate made of video that they'd play whenever he gets his hear broken to remind him

Roland Taylor

@msPeachy ha

I don't fall in love at all :P

(which is not a good thing I might add)

George Edison

@FlackBot: What time is it?

It's broken.

Roland Taylor

3:35 AM

We should call this room "Wth?"

msPeachy

@RolandTaylor well, it isn't falling inlove actually, just thinking that you're actually inlove...

Roland Taylor

lol

msPeachy

Roland Taylor

Journeyman Geek

George Edison

So much for FlackBot.

I think he broke when they switched to web sockets.

Roland Taylor

@GeorgeEdison :(

Journeyman Geek

I've just had horrible luck with such things. First girl i dated decided she's a guy. Second one dumped me for excessive snarkiness.

Roland Taylor

3:41 AM

He broke because he was lonely.

@JourneymanGeek O.o

msPeachy

i believe it is our right to be foolish when we're still young. but when we get 40, we must take life seriously

Roland Taylor

you sure beat me at running into crazy ones

Journeyman Geek

lol.

almost 30, still in school ;p

Roland Taylor

@msPeachy I've got 16 more years before that happens :)

Journeyman Geek

Journeyman Geek

Roland Taylor

Journeyman Geek

Journeyman Geek

My brother and his fiancee are so darned cute ^^

Roland Taylor

Journeyman Geek

msPeachy

Roland Taylor

In Soviet Russia, the girl proposes to you.

msPeachy

3:47 AM

@JourneymanGeek lol, today i want it today, not tomorrow, because tomorrow is always a day away

Journeyman Geek

Roland Taylor

@JourneymanGeek good luck with that :)

most people I know how got that piece of paper are doing nothing...

Journeyman Geek

There's a time for everything under the sun. Especially kicking ass and chewing bubble gum, and i'm all out of gum.

msPeachy

bye @FlackBot

Roland Taylor

or... trying to get another one :)

Journeyman Geek

3:47 AM

@RolandTaylor: tried twice to get a degree. failed. third time lucky.

George Edison

@RolandTaylor Wow... that's... unique.

Roland Taylor

Same here... I didn't go for the third time.

George Edison

I'm trying to decide if that's good or bad.

Journeyman Geek

can't get a job as is

Roland Taylor

@GeorgeEdison lol

Journeyman Geek

3:48 AM

new school is nice and 'easy' without being a pushover

I do my assignments, sit my exams, haven't failed anything yet.

Roland Taylor

Try studying here in Barbados

msPeachy

@JourneymanGeek good for you

Journeyman Geek

-_-

Journeyman Geek

lol

msPeachy

3:51 AM

what's computer forensics?

Journeyman Geek

@msPeachy: basically the 'art' of data recovery and analysis.

msPeachy

hmmn isn't there apps that does that already?

Journeyman Geek

Its a good way to learn the 'middle' part of the system, between coding and stuff

lol

Roland Taylor

@JourneymanGeek see... studying here is a ton of ************

Journeyman Geek

There's scapels. You still want a trained doctor wielding them

msPeachy

3:52 AM

i'd like to learn the "middle" part

Journeyman Geek

^^

msPeachy

@JourneymanGeek lol

@RolandTaylor you just need patience, studying is a challenge but it should be fun too

Roland Taylor

@msPeachy Oh we got the fun part :)

We just don't have the part where studying is more than a waste of time :)

Our senior tutor said "It really doesn't make sense studying here"...

with a smile

msPeachy

lol

where would you like to study then?

Roland Taylor

on Mars

I heard they have a great dormitory

msPeachy

3:57 AM

duh, do they have androids there?

Roland Taylor

no clue

I'm the king of Mars, but I don't actually mix with the commoners

msPeachy

lol

Roland Taylor

lol on a serious note, if I do study again, it most likely won't be here

msPeachy

you should visit venus, i'm the queen there

Roland Taylor

oh yeah?

Do I get free diamonds?

msPeachy

3:59 AM

@RolandTaylor you can travel abroad and study but it'd be expensive i guess

@RolandTaylor i don't give out free diamonds
