And yet my 16-year old consoles are still running fine.

The whole point was, you just take a piece of plastic and you plug it into another piece of plastic, and you are good to go. And with no loading times, too!

Mr. Shiny and New 安宇

@RegDwigнt Now now, at least every 6+ year old PC game should work

Robusto

@RegDwigнt Yeah, that sucks. Forced to be online.

RegDwigнt

@Robusto well not just online. I was online. It was Live who wasn't.

Matt Эллен

Live was dead!

Robusto

I was taking the other side of the argument.

RegDwigнt

3:02 PM

@Robusto there can be no sides to arguments. That's crazy talk.

@Mr.ShinyandNew安宇 yeah and I can buy those... where?

Mr. Shiny and New 安宇

@RegDwigнt Steam

RegDwigнt

FFS, what is Steam?

Why do I need to install shit to install shit?

Mr. Shiny and New 安宇

Like Xbox-live for PCs

Robusto

What is Steam? What kind of a commie are you?

RegDwigнt

I just want to play. Now.

Mr. Shiny and New 安宇

3:04 PM

I've had Steam for 10 years and it has never failed me.

Cerberus

@RegDwigнt Are you sure? My machine is now 6 years old, and when I built it I based it on parts from the "recommended budget PC build" sites at the time.

RegDwigнt

@Robusto I tried Steam because I wanted to play FTL. That was a year ago or so. Today I still haven't played a second of FTL, and I still have no Steam.

Mr. Shiny and New 安宇

You can buy games and they become part of your "library" and it keeps them updated and you can install them on any PC where you log into steam.

Cerberus

@MattЭллен Yesss!

RegDwigнt

@Mr.ShinyandNew安宇 I know what Steam is. Will you people start getting the point?

Mr. Shiny and New 安宇

3:05 PM

@RegDwigнt I don't know what your point is. Steam works really well. Much better than I thought it would when I first heard of it.

RegDwigнt

I even have that other Steam-like thing installed. The one Cerberus linked to. I think it was EA's shit. For playing Zombies vs. Plants.

Cerberus

@RegDwigнt Why haven't you played FTL yet, and why no Steam? It works perfectly.

RegDwigнt

Obviously it does not work here. Unlike Nintendo 64.

Cerberus

@RegDwigнt Ah, Origin.

What doesn't work? Steam doesn't work on your computer??

RegDwigнt

Whatever you say. I really forgot the name.

@Cerberus It's been a year. I don't know. I don't care. I just know it's not there.

Cerberus

3:06 PM

Install Steam, it takes only a few minutes.

RegDwigнt

I'm at work right now.

Cerberus

Log in, and all your games will be there.

Mr. Shiny and New 安宇

See, even Cerb likes Steam, a foreign-spy-network-DRM-tool

RegDwigнt

That's another thing. Why the heck can't I own anything anymore.

Cerberus

OK do it when you get home, especially if your console is still Live-Dead.

Mr. Shiny and New 安宇

3:07 PM

@RegDwigнt You can install it at work, it's okay

Matt Эллен

even some games that you didn't buy! because anything free gets added

RegDwigнt

I have to rely on Gabe not selling his soul to Satan. Or getting killed.

Matt Эллен

@Cerberus long live Steam!

Cerberus

@Mr.ShinyandNew安宇 Yes, well, at least it isn't a company with totally screwed up economic incentives, like all the console guys. And games still load if you're offline! Maybe there are exceptions, but most games will still load, right?

Mr. Shiny and New 安宇

@RegDwigнt That's true. But of all the DRM-infested things in the world, Steam has been the most reliable and most customer-friendly that I've seen.

@Cerberus What's "offline" mean?

RegDwigнt

3:08 PM

@Cerberus you forget the operational word: now. It takes just one minute to change that.

Cerberus

@RegDwigнt I think Steam has issues a guarantee that they will open source everything if the company or the service should ever stop working.

RegDwigнt

@Mr.ShinyandNew安宇 Google used to be non-evil, too. Remember? That was less than a decade ago.

Mr. Shiny and New 安宇

@RegDwigнt Anyway as you've seen, you don't even own your xbox, so it's basically the same.

Cerberus

@Mr.ShinyandNew安宇 When your Internet is down?

@RegDwigнt I don't think it ever was non-evil?

RegDwigнt

@Mr.ShinyandNew安宇 my point exactly. I say X sucks ass, and y'all say, well get Y, it's the exact same thing!

Mr. Shiny and New 安宇

3:10 PM

@RegDwigнt No, it's similar but better

Cerberus

@RegDwigнt Hey, at least it's free. You can install it and remove it at any time without having paid a euro.

RegDwigнt

@Mr.ShinyandNew安宇 At the danger of repeating myself: it takes but a minute to go from better to worse.

I can do it right now, watch me!

@Cerberus so is Xbox Live.

Cerberus

I am turning off my Internet connection now. Bye, Reg!

RegDwigнt

CU

Actually I wanted to leave early today.

So let me pack up for the commute.

Mr. Shiny and New 安宇

@RegDwigнt No, you misunderstand me. You were complaining that your PC can't play games. I said it could, and you said where do I get those games?, and I said "steam", which is, in my experience, at least as good as what modern consoles offer.

RegDwigнt

3:11 PM

@Mr.ShinyandNew安宇 ah well yes.

I am still coming from the console end of things.

Mr. Shiny and New 安宇

You don't want to play games on your PC, fine, but it should be doable.

RegDwigнt

Oh I want alright.

I enjoyed Plants vs Zombies a lot.

And I would really like to try out FTL.

Mr. Shiny and New 安宇

Then steam's the best bet. Or that website that sells old games DRM-free.... forget what they're called.

RegDwigнt

Though with FTL the problem is it won't run on my machine even if Steam will.

Mr. Shiny and New 安宇

Yeah you still need to look at minimum specs of games before you install.

Cerberus

3:13 PM

@RegDwigнt Wait.

RegDwigнt

@Mr.ShinyandNew安宇 Exactly. This is so unlike plugging a piece of plastic into another piece of plastic and have it just work.

Cerberus

I have just tested it: I can still run FTL while my computer is entirely disconnected from the Internet.

RegDwigнt

@Cerberus I can't do that with Plants vs. Zombies. I can't even start up the game.

Cerberus

@RegDwigнt On your PC?

@Mr.ShinyandNew安宇 GOG.com

RegDwigнt

@Cerberus yes on my PC. I told you I got it via the link you posted.

Matt Эллен

3:14 PM

Origin is worse than Steam

RegDwigнt

With that Origin thing.

I have even downloaded a couple more games since.

Cerberus

@RegDwigнt Oh, well, maybe Origin sucks. I have rarely used it.

RegDwigнt

Can't remember what they were.

Cerberus

Only for Dragon Age.

RegDwigнt

Something with Black Ops I never even tried, and something else that I tried and played a lot.

Oh yeah, that pebble thing or what it's called.

Cerberus

3:15 PM

@RegDwigнt Ah OK, I didn't know you had actually played it.

Matt Эллен

plants vs zombies on steam

RegDwigнt

@MattЭллен 5 bucks? What a ripoff.

Cerberus

@MattЭллен It was free on Origin.

Robusto

You're so picky.

RegDwigнt

But yeah, just the other month I downloaded and played Costume Quest, plus the extension plus Costume Quest 2, only to notice that I'd have paid half the price on Steam.

Robusto

3:16 PM

I hate happy zombies. What do they have to be happy about?

RegDwigнt

I dunno, I imagine being a zombie is all cool and stuff.

Matt Эллен

@Cerberus but then you have to install origin.

Cerberus

@RegDwigнt So anyway, you can get 100000000 games for very little money on Steam, games from 6 years ago that are still super cool, or Indie games, and you can play them offline, after installation. Only the latest AAA games are expensive on Steam, and some of them may require being online white starting the game.

Robusto

@RegDwigнt But zombies singing cheerful songs using auto-tune?

RegDwigнt

@Cerberus as I said. I know what Steam is.

No need to pitch it to me.

Cerberus

3:18 PM

@RegDwigнt Steam is better than Origin in everything. So if you can, get the game on Steam rather than Origin. But if it's free on Origin, why not keep both spying programmes installed?

RegDwigнt

@Robusto so basically Rihanna. Yeah you're right, that sucks.

Robusto

I don't care if you have a screen-door shield. Being a zombie has to be a wretched existence. Otherwise everyone would want to be a zombie.

Cerberus

@RegDwigнt OK OK.

RegDwigнt

But I really gotta run now.

Lators.

Or rather, morrows.

Robusto

I bet you're not really going to run. You're going to take public transportation.

RegDwigнt

3:19 PM

I suppose I'll be playing World of Tanks for the rest of the day, evening, and night.

Matt Эллен

CU

Cerberus

Bye!

Have fun.

Robusto

@RegDwigнt Tanks, but no tanks.

RegDwigнt

@Robusto if you bet at least $1000 bucks, I will accept the bet, and ensure you lose.

Robusto

"$1000 bucks" is redundant.

RegDwigнt

3:20 PM

@Robusto five days left!

@Robusto I knew you were going to say that.

Matt Эллен

gimme some dollar bucks

RegDwigнt

Actually no, I expected you to be wittier.

Robusto

You know everything. So what else is knew?

RegDwigнt

Knewport upon York.

Robusto

You're still not running.

@MattЭллен Jinxx.

Cerberus

3:22 PM

Which tab did you have the future Robusto saying that in?

Robusto

@Cerberus All tabs have the future Robusto saying all things.

@Cerberus And to answer your real question, the answer is in the transcript. There was an actual jinx. Can you find it?

Cerberus

Umm.

Robusto

"$1000 bucks" is redundant and gimme some dollar bucks make the same point, albeit in different ways.

Cerberus

Ah, you mean Matt's line.

I saw that.

By the way, has the transcript always been in GMT?

Is it is GMT for you too?

Robusto

So far as I can tell.

Cerberus

3:29 PM

Oh.

Robusto

Well, not really. It's showing local time now.

I think it used to be GMT.

Cerberus

See, the time is wrong for me.

But the fact that I only now notice this suggests that it is normally local time.

Robusto

Time isn't wrong. Time can never be wrong. It must be your fault somehow.

Cerberus

Nothing ever is.

Mr. Shiny and New 安宇

3:57 PM

The transcript shows GMT for me, as it always has

tchrist

I would like to take this opportunity to congratulate our moderation team for their very low rejection rate of 5% for questions migrated from ELU to ELL.

Cerberus

@Mr.ShinyandNew安宇 Hmm how come I have never noticed this before?

Mr. Shiny and New 安宇

@Cerberus Because you live in Europe

Cerberus

So...

We have time in Europe, you know.

Mr. Shiny and New 安宇

So your timezone is closer to GMT

Cerberus

4:07 PM

It's not all backwards.

It is, but still.

I suppose it kind of makes sense for the log to be in GMT for everyone.

Mr. Shiny and New 安宇

So the times in the transcript match your memory of when stuff happens even if it's off by an hour, unless you distinctly remember that you said something at noon and the transcript shows 11am or 1pm or whatever it will show

But for me the times in the transcript are total rubbish

the day boundaries are meaningless

I have to try to remember what the current offset is from GMT, and how that reflects on the times in the transacript

If something happened "at the end of the day" for me, it's actually in tomorrow's transcript.

It has always been thus, and it's pretty noticeable.

Mitch

@Cerberus Steam installed just now. My computer is very clean, but it just doesn't seem to turn on at all.

I used the espresso maker frothing adapter. That's what you meant, right?

Cerberus

@Mr.ShinyandNew安宇 The latter has probably happened to me, but then I wrote it off as my own mistake.

@Mr.ShinyandNew安宇 I see, okay.

@Mitch Huh, that's weird?

Mr. Shiny and New 安宇

@Cerberus He means he steamed his computer

Cerberus

Is Steam active in your Task Manager, alt-control-delete → Task Manager?

@Mitch Ohh you rascal.

I thought that second line was some sort of pun referring to something else that I didn't get.

Mitch

4:14 PM

@Cerberus I'm squirrelly.

But my computer smells real good

Have you all seen this...

languagelog.ldc.upenn.edu/nll/?cat=180

Cheese-tastic! -> Fr = Fromidable!

Mr. Shiny and New 安宇

@Mitch Yes, they sell that in stores here

for some reason language log isn't loading for me

Mitch

I've told you everything you need to know.

Mr. Shiny and New 安宇

well, I already knew it

Cerberus

@Mr.ShinyandNew安宇 Nor for me.

Mr. Shiny and New 安宇

Mitch must have broken it

Mitch

4:18 PM

when I steamed it.

Mr. Shiny and New 安宇

spreading the word about spreadable cheese products with funny names

Cerberus

> It's not just you! languagelog.ldc.upenn.edu looks down from here.

@Mitch What was the temperature of your steam? It needs to be really hot.

Mitch

Crap...it's broken for me too now.

@Cerberus I tried it on the back of my hand. it burned a hole through. is that what's supposed to happen?

flickr.com/photos/oudemia/4783457924

that has a picture (not the same one as LL)

here is LL's

Cerberus

@Mitch Hmm the steam was so hot that it caused fire?

I suppose that is possible?

@Mitch Delicious!

Mitch

@Cerberus I'm sure some milk product was in the processing plant at the same time as its manufacture.

@Cerberus The water was so hot it caught fire.

Then that was so hot, the fire caught fire.

So... really hot.

Matt Эллен

4:36 PM

your fire is on fire

Mitch

I told you it was hot.

Mr. Shiny and New 安宇

@Mitch It's just no-name Cheese Whiz. It's cheese... not a particularly good cheese, but still cheese.

Mitch

Sans-nom .. wait...what is 'cheese-whiz en francais?

Robusto

Data guy just told me some middle school has 8,084 teachers using the same textbook. I told him to refine his query.

Mitch

fontaine de fromage?

@Robusto They're a very caring middle school, a 10 to 1 ratio of teacher-student ratio.

Robusto

4:39 PM

First of all, 8K teachers would imply > 100,000 students, and I don't know of a single school that would ever have that many.

Mr. Shiny and New 安宇

@Mitch I dunno but when I GIS "fromidable" I get this:

Matt Эллен

@Robusto ha! sadly the latest show stopping bug to be found here is only partly user error.

Will Hunting

@Robusto Well, I would think directly in terms of the number of teachers instead of the number of students and get the same conclusion.

Mr. Shiny and New 安宇

@Robusto wouldn't that imply 8000 classrooms?

Matt Эллен

"We're not receiving enough signal! I'll leave you to figure it out." figures... "You're not sending enough signal to start with."

"It's still off centre for no reason."

Robusto

4:40 PM

@Mr.ShinyandNew安宇 Not necessarily. A classroom could be used by multiple teachers at different times of the day.

Matt Эллен

:( "yes it is"

Robusto

But schools that have > 100 classrooms are probably few and far between.

Matt Эллен

and schools with > 100 teachers...

Mr. Shiny and New 安宇

@Robusto in a middle school? Aren't the teachers typically all teaching all day?

Robusto

That's just like a data guy, though. Runs the query and gives you the answer without ever letting it pass through the WTF filter.

@Mr.ShinyandNew安宇 Not necessarily. Most have 3-5 classes. And physical classrooms are multi-user.

Or can be.

Even the biggest university in the US, Ohio State (I think) only has around 50K students. And that's a whole frickin' university.

Hmm, Ohio State only has 41k students.

Mr. Shiny and New 安宇

4:46 PM

@Robusto Middle schools must be different where you are. Here, teachers have 7 45 minute periods of teaching per day and at most one of them is a spare.

Robusto

University of Central Florida has more 42k.

@Mr.ShinyandNew安宇 Whatever. We're still talking the same order of magnitude.

Will Hunting

My home school has 1 student: me, lol.

Robusto

The point is, no middle school would ever have 100K students.

Will Hunting

They have high school and middle school. They should call it low school instead of elementary school.

Robusto

Waukegan, IL only has 88k population.

Mahnax

5:05 PM

Hola.

Will Hunting

@Mahnax Boo! Good luck for your exams!

Mahnax

@WillHunting Thank you! My first exam is on 9 December.

Will Hunting

@Mahnax Could you email me about Maria? I would like to know.

Mahnax

@WillHunting OK.

Sent.

Will Hunting

@Mahnax Should I use your new email address from now onwards?

Mahnax

5:13 PM

@WillHunting Sure. They all go to the same mail program, so whatever works best for you.

I just use that one primarily now.

As well as my school e-mail for more professional matters.

Will Hunting

@Mahnax OK, I will update my records. I prefer using addresses with real names, lol.

Mahnax

@WillHunting Sounds good.

Will Hunting

@Mahnax Did you take Further Math in the IB, or just Math HL?

Mahnax

@WillHunting I took Math SL. We didn't have the option to do Math HL.

Will Hunting

@Mahnax WTF! What kind of school is that, lol.

Mahnax

5:20 PM

@WillHunting Well, we had two curricula to worry about: Alberta Ed and IB. Math HL was too much extra stuff to worry about.

Our HLs were picked for us.

English Lit, Bio, History.

Will Hunting

@Mahnax I read that there is now Mathematical Studies SL, Math SL, Math HL, and Further Math HL, lol.

Mahnax

I would've gone with Math, Chem, and French B, personally.

Will Hunting

@Mahnax That's very sad.

Mahnax

@WillHunting Yep. Too late to worry about it now though! :)

Will Hunting

@Mahnax Anyway, it's OK as you are not doing math, lol.

Mahnax

5:23 PM

Yes indeed. Although HL Chem would have been really cool.

Will Hunting

Oh, you are right. Still, your school is so weird.

Mahnax

Most IB schools in my area are like that, I think.

Will Hunting

@Mahnax Are you happy with life now? I think I will only be happy when I am completely well.

@Mahnax I see. Are you seeing any psychiatrist or psychotherapist? You can always talk to me. I consider myself an expert, lol.

Mahnax

Thanks, I'll keep it in mind. But no, not at present.

Will Hunting

I have been unwell for about 15 years now. It is very sad.

I have lost almost everything in life. Luckily I have a mum who is taking care of me.

Mahnax

5:34 PM

Yes, fortunately you have your mother.

How is she doing?

Will Hunting

She is OK.

Mahnax

Hmm, that's not so bad, then.

Will Hunting

Yes, let's hope neither of us gets any physical illness.

Mahnax

Indeed.

Will Hunting

@Mahnax Have you studied Buddhism? Not that it would help, but it gives interesting perspectives on many things.

user116848

5:37 PM

@Mahnax Hi Mahnax. How are you?

Mahnax

@WillHunting No, I haven't.

@Farooq I'm alright, how are you doing?

user116848

I am fine. Thanks!

Mahnax

Good! :)

user116848

@Mahnax You don't come here often these days. I am guessing you are busy with studies etc.

Mahnax

@Farooq Yes, quite busy.

But I'm trying to pop in and say hello once in a while.

This chat is not so active anymore.

user116848

5:41 PM

I see :-)

Mahnax

Not compared to what it was one or two years ago, I don't think.

Will Hunting

@mahnax Don't ever forget me. We will meet some day!

Mahnax

@WillHunting If you say so!

I could not forget anyone I've met here, I've been a part of this place for so long.

Three years is a long time for an 18 year old.

Will Hunting

I suddenly feel very sad now. Sometimes, I think I may never get well.

Cerberus

@Mitch Unlikely.

Mahnax

5:44 PM

@WillHunting Don't lose heart. There is always the possibility of a bright future, and you are yet young.

@Cerberus Hi, Spot!

Cerberus

@Mitch I'm sure steam can get hot enough to set things on fire, why couldn't it?

@Mahnax Woof!

Mahnax

pats heads

Cerberus

What do you think, can steam get hot enough to set something on fire?

Will Hunting

By the way, does steam refer to the liquid or the gas? I think it is the liquid.

Cerberus

Or perhaps the problem is that it can't stay hot enough in a practical situation?

@WillHunting Gas.

Will Hunting

5:46 PM

@Cerberus Oh? I thought it was the recently condensed gas that is visible.

Cerberus

That is true.

Steam is not visible.

Robusto

It's actually condensed water vapor that is visible. Water vapor isn't properly a gas.

Will Hunting

It seems to me that water vapour is a gas and steam is a liquid. That is, the former condenses into the latter.

Robusto

Ice is a solid. Water is a liquid. Steam is the gaseous form of water.

Water vapor has ceased to be steam.

Damkerng T.

►

I got curious, so I searched for it a little bit, and found that!

Robusto

6:03 PM

I've cooked an egg in a Dixie cup over a campfire before.

Will Hunting

I have never cooked an egg or anything before.

Cerberus

@Robusto Exactement.

Oops, without the accent.

Robusto

I can't hear your accent when you type.

Cerberus

I understand.

That happens to one's ears as one gets older.

@DamkerngT. Very nice!

@Robusto I remember an experiment where we folded regular printer paper into a cup of sorts and boiled water in it over a gas burner.

Damkerng T.

@Cerberus Glad you like it!

Cerberus

6:12 PM

Always!

Robusto

So here's a question: If an asteroid 1km in diameter (assume spherical) were to be headed stright for the top of your head traveling 50,000 kph, would it ever actually hit you or would you be vaporized by the plasma generated by the friction between the asteroid and the atmosphere before it could ever land?

Cerberus

Hmmm.

Good question.

Will Hunting

Strange question.

Robusto

The distinction isn't really a practical one, but I'm curious.

Cerberus

Naturally.

Does being vaporized by the shockwave count as hitting me?

Robusto

6:14 PM

Define "shockwave"—you mean something apart from the impact shockwave?

Cerberus

The air that it pushes forward.

Robusto

That would be part of it, I think. Maybe you'd be vaporized and blown out of the way before it could ever strike.

Cerberus

Maybe that will already obliterate me before anything else? I don't know.

Robusto

But a shockwave would propagate at the speed of sound, right? So it couldn't travel faster than the asteroid.

Cerberus

@Robusto I would assume the solid molecules in the asteroid would never touch a part of my body that was still in any way in a recognizable shape.

@Robusto I don't know, would it? Why can't air move faster than sound?

Robusto

6:17 PM

@Cerberus That seems reasonable to me.

@Cerberus It can. But the air and the shockwave are not the same thing.

Cerberus

Indeed not.

But I'm not sure the same limits as those of sound would apply.

I'm sure a supersonic plane pushes at least some air forward at a speed greater than sound.

Robusto

You seemed to be conflating the two things. The air (or whatever) might blast you out of the way, but the shockwave would not really be part of that.

Cerberus

Perhaps it is only a very thin layer.

@Robusto I wasn't even thinking of blasting my (whole) body away yet.

Robusto

I guess it depends on how we define shockwave.

Cerberus

Imagine I am stuck in a hole and the ateroid strikes right on the hole.

Yeah.

Robusto

6:23 PM

I actually don't think any part of the asteroid that wasn't vaporized would strike any part of you that wasn't vaporized.

Kabir

Hello Everyone

Is this sentence correct "Remember, I am always an email away"?

Cerberus

6:41 PM

@Robusto Neither do I.

@Kabir Sure! Although spelling e-mail is probably better.

Robusto

No, email is the preferred spelling these days.

Cerberus

6:54 PM

The whole word is ugly enough as it is; let's not uglify it even further.

Robusto

How about eeeeuuwwwmail?

Cerberus

Better.

I hate the stuff so much.

Robusto

I'm crushed. I thought you kept your emails from me in a special container.

Cerberus

E-mail is like the hairs and fatty sludge that accumulate in your bathroom drain: it stinks and there is always more.

Present company excepted, of course.

I have printed and framed all your e-mails.

Robusto

Thank you.

@Cerberus I never knew about those.

Cerberus

7:00 PM

No?

Robusto

My bathroom drain is pristine, naturally.

Cerberus

One half of e-mail is useless junk that you wasted years of your life on to read. The other half is people nagging you to do stuff.

@Robusto And do enjoy keeping it in that state?

Robusto

I don't take showers to get clean. I take them because they feel good.

Speaking of which: bike time! Indoor bike today, sadly. But I have to do it.

Cerberus

I only really enjoy a shower when I'm cold.

Hmm too bad.

Perhaps I should go out and run, too.

It's below zero...

At least it hasn't been raining, so no frozen puddles to slip on.

Will Hunting

@Robusto You never emailed me.

I will never make a marriage proposal like that. It's supposed to be a private affair, not a public one.

Mr. Shiny and New 安宇

He should have given me the money instead.

Mr. Shiny and New 安宇

I think @Cerberus should make a heart out of iphones when he proposes.

Will Hunting

I think one should just pull out one's heart to make a proposal.

Mr. Shiny and New 安宇

@WillHunting That's what that guy did!

Will Hunting

If I were a girl, I would reject him too. It's a waste of money, what he did. He must be a millionaire though.
