Still no idea...

Seth

probably why they denied his verification request :p

Byte Commander

shrug

Btw, some news from Munich. There are now 10 confirmed casualties, one of them seems to be the attacker who finally committed suicide. Police is now assuming that he was the only attacker and there are no others running around any more.

Serg

To throw or not to throw away some boxes, thats the question

Going to bed now, hoping that tomorrow there will be no need to follow a news live-ticker again.

Good night.

Serg

I started getting tired around 8 , but then started coughing

Videonauth

well i took a pill this evening but now im awake at 3:30 ~~

Serg

1:37 AM

sometimes i have these seizures , where i just cannot stop coughing if i'm lying , but if i sit up it is better

I don't understand how on bloody earth I could go to bed at 2 AM and wake up at 8 AM when i was in China

There's just something special about the whole environment there . I feel much more energetic there than anywhere else

Videonauth

easy, the girl got you occupied and from time to time our male brains need simply a rest

Serg

But I have spent 3 weeks there. And only started actively pursuing that girl in like last week and half

Videonauth

well what im now guessing i cant say here without getting banned :p

Serg

say it in a way that won't get you banned then :p

Videonauth

probably the smell of ....

Videonauth

xD

edwinksl

chat mod just came in

hide yo kids

TheXed

1:48 AM

They appear at the mere mention..of "mod"

Videonauth

o/ Nathan

Serg

I personally would encode censored things into base 64 but mods still can decode it

edwinksl

let's just do good old gpg

Serg

lol , it will be too long for pasting into chat

edwinksl

1:58 AM

what we need is a private chat for AU somewhere ;)

Serg

we can always use qtox

many users here have it

qtox?

indeed :)

i'm bored \

it's a sort of anonymous chatting client

ƎpᴉʇʎXD

1:59 AM

i don't know what do do with debian

Serg

@ƎpᴉʇʎXD start learning python and writing scripts like i do

ƎpᴉʇʎXD

:p

i'm waiting for a testing reason ping

Videonauth

@IanC tox.chat/download.html this but the link to download or install it is better this one ( software.opensuse.org/… ) because it is more up to date

ƎpᴉʇʎXD

5 hours ago, by ƎpᴉʇʎXD

i'm learning python

Serg

There's several clients though tox.chat/clients.html

IanC

2:01 AM

@Videonauth will download it!

almost time to get ready for work :/

ƎpᴉʇʎXD

Videonauth

IanC

Videonauth

2:09 AM

ah

so you often see some of the bigger ones too :)

ƎpᴉʇʎXD

rio olympics confirmed!!!

IanC

yeah, most ships are big ones, that import/export conteiners, soy, cars

ƎpᴉʇʎXD

i think @Zacharee1 should make a rio olympic version profile picture.

a ubunrio?

IanC

it's a cool job, doesn't pay a enormous wage, but it's enough to pay my bills and save some

you get used to the shifts, and get to live your life once you're out of the work

like, you don't take work issues home you know?

Videonauth

i know i know

Serg

2:35 AM

The amount of stuff in my room has gotten to the point where i don't know what to do with everything. I wanna keep things and at the same time, they clutter my room :/

edwinksl

burninate them

Nathan Osman

@Serg Welcome to the dilemma that all grown men must one day face.

edwinksl

if you don't know if you need something or not, you probably don't need it

Serg

O_o

Nathan Osman

"Oh, I don't use this tool, I'll just get rid of it."

* 2 weeks later *

WHERE IS THAT STUPID TOOL!?!

edwinksl

2:37 AM

hopefully you had it under dvcs :)

Serg

yeah . . . that's a problem.

Maybe I should get another one of those plastic drawers

After I bougth the last one, I've managed to stuff all the clothes that was just lying on shelves into it , plus some electronics

Now that space on the shelves is a mess of stuff from China and old crap

And I need to figure out how to arrange my and my gf pictures too

edwinksl

which gf

Serg

the current one

Also, today I saw Xiu Zhen's ( my ex , FYI ) post on WeChat . She apparently got a job at some electric company .

CodeX

no roll back to older version xD

Serg

Nuuu , I'm gonna git commit to my current gf

Nathan Osman

2:42 AM

So many Git jokes to make. Must. Resist. Tempatation...

edwinksl

detached head

Nathan Osman

That is funny both in and out of context.

Serg

Only if she decides one day that I am annoying and hopeless , and decided to leave me, then I'll have to fork my love repository into some other project

edwinksl

@NathanOsman glad we think alike

Nathan Osman

We call that "rebasing" in Git.

Videonauth

2:43 AM

you guys are so so weird xD

Nathan Osman

We're programmers :D

What did you expect? :P

Serg

I just wish we could chat more . . . But my gf is always studying and busy . . . .And actually i think this is for the best - keeping distance makes you miss a person , while not getting bored with them

Meanwhile, I need to figure out my life ASAP . . . . gotta get a stable job and graduate up from that damn university

CodeX

App is not communicating well with the server ? ..but server wants to upgrade itself

I better go for a walk .. BBL

edwinksl

@Serg you have competition github.com/maateen/battery-monitor

Serg

@edwinksl lol , not a competition for me. My indicator does completely different thing

Aaaand , I wanna more coffee . . . . but it's 9 pm

edwinksl

2:56 AM

the first couple lines are probably how you avoid the annoying gtk warnings github.com/maateen/battery-monitor/blob/master/battery-monitor/…

Serg

Yeah, that's apparently the only way. It's such a bummer that cant just shut the warning without requiring a specific version

Videonauth

you could patch the gi classes tho :p

to silent that output

Serg

my code-fu isn't strong enough to do that

CodeX

3:19 AM

@Serg you seem to have trouble sleeping

Videonauth

nah hes just weird thats not trouble sleeping ;)

Serg

@CodeX yes, has been having this trouble for years

CodeX

I think we will are weird to some degree : )

but not more than the pencil xD

Videonauth

when it comes to sleeping im the weirdest :)

only sleeping about 10-15 hours per week

Serg

I suppose that's the quality of all programmers and engineers in general

Videonauth

3:21 AM

and this only because of medication

CodeX

@Serg did you try taking magnesium supplement

Serg

Nope, I didn't take any meds for that, and prefer not to

CodeX

medications for ? @Videonauth

Videonauth

sleeping

CodeX

@Serg not meds .. I am talking about supplement

Videonauth

3:22 AM

without i would be awake untill my brain malfunctions

CodeX

I take this images-iherb.com/l/NRT-04290-4.jpg

it helps my brain calm down from second or third day

discovered by experimenting on my self xD

Serg

eh, sure. I could give it a go. I'm not very consistent with taking pills of any kind though. I have these allergy meds and was supposed to take them 10 days, but i lated only 2 or 3 inconsistent days

CodeX

you need a therapist ? why dont you love yourself

xD

ƎpᴉʇʎXD

i don't have a bone*

Serg

Because of constant bombarding from the environment , which tells me how horrible I am. :)

CodeX

3:27 AM

I was about to agree with brain .. but you edited : (

ƎpᴉʇʎXD

?

CodeX

hmm that does require a therapist

Serg

Somebody wrote a workspace indicator in Java O_o

edwinksl

?

Videonauth

A train station is where the train stops, a bus station is where the busses stop, well on my desk i have a work-station ....

Serg

3:30 AM

I lol'ed

ƎpᴉʇʎXD

LOL

ROFL

CodeX

then work should stop on work station

Videonauth

exactly

CodeX

good I use laptop

Serg

My laptop is sort of in between. When it's on my desk it becomes a workstation XD

CodeX

3:32 AM

time to go to work ..BBL

Serg

Have a good one !

CodeX

thanks .. enjoyy pythons and indicators

Alright. Time for ShootMania.

If anyone has Windows, they are welcome to join me.

Serg

I'm watching Shogun (1980 ) . Still regretting i neither speak spanish nor japanese

ƎpᴉʇʎXD

@NathanOsman i wish to join you

Nathan Osman

You can download it here: maniaplanet.com/shootmania

ƎpᴉʇʎXD

oh is it a game?

Nathan Osman

Yes.

ƎpᴉʇʎXD

4:36 AM

my computer is too slow for shootmania >:(

Nathan Osman

:(

edwinksl

no linux port?

ƎpᴉʇʎXD

i might try it on my good computer later

Nathan Osman

Sorry, it's Windows only.

I wish there were a Linux port too.

Although it sounds like it works well in Wine.

ƎpᴉʇʎXD

Try it on ReactOS

reactos is the OS designed to be binary-compatable with Windows

Seth

4:38 AM

@NathanOsman personally knowing people that will vote for Trump, and others that will vote for Hillary really makes that image strike home.. :(

Nathan Osman

ReactOS has 3D acceleration?

does*

idk too

Serg

I wish there was a simple way of creating dynamic icons for indicators

Like show specific frame from an icon/gif

edwinksl

4:43 AM

make a tool for it? ;)

ƎpᴉʇʎXD

and i can test it on my debian?

Serg

Actually . . . .there is convert which allows splitting gif into pngs. What I wanna have is like freeze-frame command. like somegiftool.show_frame(1)

CodeX

is shootmania good ? its only 100 mb

Nathan Osman

4:59 AM

No, that's just for the loader.

The full game is about 1 GB.

i have an idea to try - add soy sauce into water with rice and cook it like that

maybe will have awesome flavor

ƎpᴉʇʎXD

soy rice

:D

edwinksl

@Serg soy sauce with white rice is delicious but it will wreck your Na level

Serg

eh, I don't eat it that often . On the other hand, recently i've been consuming too much paprika

ƎpᴉʇʎXD

5:31 AM

yeah

Serg

speaking of paprika . . . . need to add that to my bowl right now

aaaaaaa, bad choice bacd choice

cayenne pepper

too much

ƎpᴉʇʎXD

Even on unmodified source, it's as in the screenshots
