yesterday, by DavidPostill
FT (front) HPS (hips) BK (back) UA (under arm)
@DavidPostill Oh just noticed...
UA for under arm? Lol
That's Under Armour!
> Many people who see a doctor for a sore throat receive prescriptions for antibiotics, but most do not need them, experts say.

That's because most sore throats are caused by viruses, which do not respond to antibiotics, the Infectious Diseases Society of America says.

According to new guidelines released today (Sept. 11) by the IDSA, people should take antibiotics for strep throat only if a test confirms they have the condition.
@DavidPostill Probably true, but the antibiotics really helped yesterday... But they aren't really doing so today. I've been in severe pain for a week, and got some relief for the first time yesterday.
@DavidPostill Do you know website that identifies front type with OCR technology? MyFont only show commercial fonts...
@Boris_yo have you tried uploading an image to myfonts.com/WhatTheFont?
17:07
@DavidPostill Yeah. Last year.
@DavidPostill It's okay I can search since Google is my friend. I searched though but have not found it so I asked you if you know.
Free fonts are the issue.
I think most tools only identify by showing commercial fonts which if bought, they would get credit.

Wow, windows 10 understands .img files
I was already for ways to burn it to a DVD (or USB pendrive) and then copy it back.
I never knew windows finally got a loopback devices
Nor that it worked fast (writing to disk at a sustained 620MB/sec whille reading the data from the same disk)
Hello to all!
Hi!
@Hennes Some kind of M.2 SSD?
Yes. NVME PCI-e 3.0 x4
Samsung MZVPV512
@Hennes PCI Express slot or M.2 slot?
17:45
Usually feels fast, but crawls down to 3KB/sec (yes, kilo!) when I unzip to it using the win10 build in unzip.
M.2 slot, using NVME (not SATA emulation)
My motherboard has a pair of M.2 slots. Sadly not more of them since that would be nice
I am seriously considering PCI-e to M.2 cards in the future.
@Hennes Hmm... I think z170-----
This is a Z170 / i5-6600K setup
Though I trule forgot which motherboard is in the gaming desktop and which in the experimental
Ah, play/test/experiment desktop opened. That is the ASROCK Z170 extreme 4,
That means this is the Gigabyte GA-Z170X-Gaming 7
@Hennes I have a Plextor SSD m.2
But my motherboard is z97
So no M.2 slots?
But PCI-e to M.2 cards should still work, assuming up to date firmware for the motherboard or support from the OS
@Hennes Yes, one m.2 slot. I think x2 type.
17:52
oh, curse you office.
Firs, after months of installs to get it despite having a legal key, if installs everything in 32 bit mode. And now I finally found the offline installer and it installed everything in x64 mode
I do not want frigging powerpoint or exchange or word.
I just wanted to learn more excel/VBA and access
And since today is not 20 years ago I want the 64 bit versions of those programs
wuuuuuuuuuuuuut no parachut jump o_O?
you dont want 64bit office
especially excel
hmm seems that might of changed after 2010
@Hennes Huh? Isn't x64 64 bit?
18:07
Minimum age to have sex in India for males and females: 18
Minimum age to get married for males: 18
Minimum age to get married for females: 21.
How... does that work out?
You sure it is 18 for men?
IIRC, legal age for marriage: men is 21 and women is 18. o.O
@jokerdino yeah that's the correct one right
@Rahul2001 You know unmarried people can have sex, right?
@ThatBrazilianGuy yep.
Is it against the law in India?
@jokerdino that's what I thought too but I just came across this on the internet. Idk.
@ThatBrazilianGuy I don't think so. Maybe.
18:38
@ThatBrazilianGuy if it is, it would make India among the most socially ultraconservative countries in the world
There are countries where it's forbidden for a woman to show her hair face everything.
hence among, not the
Well, if it's not forbidden, then there's a very simple formula applicable here:
(minimum age of marriage - age of consent) = number of years where a person can legally have sex but not marry
I don't know the age of consent in Brazil.
The age of consent in Brazil is 14, regardless of gender or sexual orientation, with a judicial precedent showing that a close-in-age exception that allows those aged 12 and 13 to engage in sexual activity with partners who are 5 years older or less is legal, although not constitutionally formalized. The age at which there are no restrictions for sexual activities is 18. In any case, only individuals aged 18 or older can be legally charged, as this is the Brazilian age of criminal responsibility according to the Constitution of Brazil. Sexual acts with children younger than 14 are strictly illegal...
Now I do.
The Hindu Marriage Act is an Act of the Parliament of India enacted in 1955. Three other important acts were also enacted as part of the Hindu Code Bills during this time: the Hindu Succession Act (1956), the Hindu Minority and Guardianship Act (1956), the Hindu Adoptions and Maintenance Act (1956). == Purpose == The main purpose of the act was to amend and codify the law relating to marriage among Hindus and others. Besides amending and codifying Sastrik Law, it introduced separation and divorce, which did not exist in Sastrik Law. This enactment brought uniformity of law for all section...
> In the original Act, the age of valid marriage was fixed at 18 for the boys and 15 for the girls, however this age requirement was later raised to 21 and 18 respectively for the boys and the girls through the Child Marriage Restraint (Amendment) Act 1978. Marriage of a female less than 18 years of age or a male of less than 21 years of age is voidable but not void: The marriage will become valid if no steps are taken by the minor spouse to seek a declaration that the marriage is void
> Probably one of the weirdest ones. In many Brazilian cities it is forbidden to use mobiles inside bank agencies.
> Casinos are forbidden in Brazil since 1946. In 2004, the prohibition was extended to bingos and slot machines.
18:49
@ThatBrazilianGuy in some states in the US it's illegal to tie an alligator to a fire hydrant
> This law aims to avoid crimes in which the criminal sees someone withdrawing a large amount of money and calls his partner, who will be waiting outside to rob the victim.
> Some strange Brazilian laws are that selling watermelons is illegal in Rio Claro; magazines can only print pictures showing one naked breast; and outdoor advertising is forbidden in the city of São Paolo.
> The law forbidding outdoor advertising in São Paolo, which includes billboards, flyers, pamphlets and ads on buses, taxis and all public places, was instated in 2006.
> Up until 2002, Brazil also had another strange law that gave men up to 10 days after a marriage to file for an annulment if they determined their new wife wasn't a virgin.
There are, however, many "security features" of banking apps require QR code scanning from ATM machines, which usually sit inside banks...
@DavidPostill Bikinis were forbidden on all the countrie's beaches in the 60's.
@DavidPostill Those Italians are crazy!!!
San Paolo (Italian for Saint Paul) is a comune in the Province of Brescia, in the Italian region Lombardy. == References... ==
São Paulo (/ˌsaʊ ˈpaʊloʊ/; Portuguese pronunciation: [sɐ̃w ˈpawlu]; Saint Paul in English) is a municipality located in the southeast region of Brazil. The metropolis is an alpha global city—as listed by the GaWC—and is the most populous city in Brazil, the Americas, and in the Southern Hemisphere. The municipality is also Earth's 12th largest city proper by population. The city is the capital of the homonymous state of São Paulo, Brazil's most populous and wealthiest state. It exerts strong international influence in commerce, finance, arts and entertainment. The name of the city honors Saint...

> If a driver in an accident dies the police are still required to do a breathalyzer test to legally be able to determine who was at fault for the accident

If the deceased refuses to take the test they can face fines and a suspension of driving privileges.

18:55
@djsmiley2k Because the teleportation agency between italy and brazil is still in alpha
@DavidPostill this is the legal equivalent of a poorly coded edge case
> It is against the law to wear masks at parties, except during Carnaval celebrations or by obtaining a licence.
so if they can't prove you were drunk, you can't be proven responsible?!
case FOO:
return doSomethingSane();
case BAR:
return doSomethingElseAlsoSane();
case 17:
printf("steve\n");
exit(542);
18:57
@allquixotic I know. It's still funny though ;p
Oh, I remember a good one! It's against the law to wrap yourself with the national flag, dress yourself with it, or with any clothing with the flag pattern.
@ThatBrazilianGuy what about all those people crying with the national flag all over their bodies during the football game they lost to Germany like 368299-2?
@allquixotic SCUMMY FILTHY CRIMINALS!
19:02
I watched that game. It was glorious.
lawbreaker? that looks like the flag to me
> Art. 31. It's considered manifestations of disrespect to the National Flag, and therefore prohibited:

I - Present it in poor condition.

II - Change its shape, color, proportions, couplet or other inscriptions;

III - To use it as a dressing, curtain, cloth of mouth, table trim, covering of tribune, or as cover of plates, portraits, panels or monuments to inaugurate;

IV - Reproduce it on labels or envelopes of products on sale.
> Art. 32. Flags in bad state of conservation must be delivered to any Military Unit, so that they are incinerated on Flag Day, according to the peculiar ceremonial.

Art. 33. No flag of another nation can be used in the country without its right side, of equal size and in a prominent position, the National Flag, except in the headquarters of the diplomatic or consular representations.
> Law 5700 / 1971
Oh, military dictatorship.
> Violation of any provision of this Law [is] subject to a fine of one to four times the highest reference value in Brazil, doubled in cases of recidivism.
The government is missing a HUGE untapped revenue stream in soccer stadiums!
'as a dressing'
does that actually mean clothing?
19:22
Yeah. Blame google translate.
@ThatBrazilianGuy Reference value? Is this something like the penalty unit in Australia?
It is something like google translating literal isolated words or something.
!!/wiki Penalty unit
In Australian law, a penalty unit (abbreviated as PU) is an amount of money used to compute pecuniary penalties for many breaches of statute law. Fines are calculated by multiplying the value of one penalty unit by the number of penalty units prescribed for the offence. The different jurisdictions that make up Australia (the Commonwealth and the states and territories) each have their own penalty units. The value of a penalty unit, and the manner and frequency of varying that value, differ from state to state, and there are also federal penalty units that apply only to federal offences. In the...
@bwDraco That concept exists here.
19:25
e.g. offence A = 5 penalty unit fine = A$900
@DavidPostill It seems according to Microsoft logic X64 means "capable of running 32 bit software".
(currently one penalty unit is A$180)
So lets go 32 bits unless the user learn how to google
And using the Office 2016 Deployment Tool is apparently required for a normal end user instyall
Which I understand for custon enterprise installs.
But in this case I am just an end user who want to install excel and access (both 64 bit ) from and office 2016 DVD/.img
Not winword.exe
not powerpoint
not anything else
Just these two, and the normal version rather than 20 y.o. legacy versions
/me pours a third whisky.
I used to think that this was required to sendmail, but now it is for office.
Key quote:
> Another problem would be vehicles driving into the "legs" of the bus, and then presumably an almighty crash as the cabin loses support and keels over.
@ThatBrazilianGuy So what is the "highest reference value"?
19:38
@bwDraco No idea and no wish to tread boring volumes of brazilian bureacracy to find out.
brazilian bureacracy is a redundancy.
@BenN I've seen that. Totally redefines "bus rapid transit".
Bus "rapid transit" in NYC is a joke.
The subway system is far more reliable.
@BenN I'm fairly certain that "bus" is not falling over if something crashes into it's legs.
BRT in NYC (Select Bus Service) is implemented through dedicated bus lanes, improved traffic light timing, fare payment before boarding (proof-of-payment tickets with random inspection), and bus entry and exit using all doors (not just entering through the front door). It hasn't proven as effective as it was expected to be, though.
20:02
It's a bit faster than normal bus service, but it most definitely cannot get you from Downtown to the Bronx in half an hour the way the subway system can.
20:31
@Hennes x64 requires the ability to run x86 software, since all 64-bit processors, are just 32-bit processors with Intel64/AMD64 extension support
21:00
Okay, wow, that was so intense.
Also, I should sleep. It's 2 AM
21:41
@Rahul2001 "that"?
probably TMI
