Zacharee1

RolandiXor

O.o

Kaz Wolfe

@Zacharee1 you don't have a blue name. you have no power.

Nathan Osman

@KazWolfe Yas.

Zacharee1

11:01 PM

@KazWolfe "Ask Ubuntu is moderated by you"

Kaz Wolfe

@NathanOsman you're not a site mod.

Serg

Internet is like ancient Egypt - walls and cat worshiping

Kaz Wolfe

@Zacharee1 And I say I can.

Zacharee1

and I say no

Nathan Osman

@KazWolfe sssssssshhhhhhh!

Zacharee1

11:03 PM

not like its a secret

Nathan Osman

Now it isn't.

:D

Serg

So . . . since I'm incapable of finding any interesting questions lately, I'll go back to digging old text-processing questions and making a bootable USB for my friend

Zacharee1

@Serg use:

Serg

Gosh, it's good to have friends who use Ubuntu . . .even if her kernel is panicking

Zacharee1

@Serg "what am I doing?? What's this device? How do I load this driver!?! AAAAH"

RolandiXor

11:05 PM

I do the will of the user. The question is... which user?

Serg

@Zacharee1 I've no idea who that pink beaver and weasel cross-breed is

Zacharee1

@RolandiXor you

RolandiXor

Nathan Osman? Or myself :>

Zacharee1

@Serg It's apparently called Rufus and it's from Kim-Possible

Serg

That Rufus isn't Ruffy at all , lol

Zacharee1

11:06 PM

wat

TNB has a written chattiquette. In AUGR it's almost rude to not be irrelevant and spammy.

Nathan Osman

That's because we're civil.

(Right? Right?)

Serg

das right

Kaz Wolfe

TNB doesn't listen to their chatiquette, does it?

RolandiXor

What is TNB?

Nathan Osman

I don't know. I don't hang out there.

Serg

11:11 PM

Teenage Ninja Beavers

Nathan Osman

@RolandiXor the next byte.

It's another chat room.

Serg

close enough

Kaz Wolfe

The Nineteenth Byte

Zacharee1

^

plebs

@KazWolfe oh it does

Nathan Osman

@KazWolfe that's what I meant.

RolandiXor

11:12 PM

@NathanOsman on AU?

Zacharee1

@RolandiXor it's codegolf

Nathan Osman

No, on SE chat.

RolandiXor

@Zacharee1 never heard of it O_o

Zacharee1

The Nineteenth Byte

The Nineteenth Byte: General discussion for codegolf.stackexc...

:C

11:14 PM

If you're feeling golfy , I feel bad for you son, I got nineteen bytes, but 20th ain't one

Nathan Osman

Let's take it over! :P

Zacharee1

@Serg ............

RolandiXor

I'm a mod, but that chattiquette would drive me batty.

Serg

@Zacharee1 it's just a warm up, baybeh, fish puns might be coming next

Zacharee1

oh dear

Serg

11:16 PM

What can you make with 8 raspberry pi's ?

Octo-pi

Zacharee1

oh no local mods!

@Serg that's not a fish

Serg

True, I sea your concern

Kaz Wolfe

github.com/jmhobbs/terminal-parrot

Zacharee1

that's not fish either

Nathan Osman

@Serg 4 cores x 8 pis is 32 cores.

That's a mini-Xeon you got there.

Zacharee1

11:18 PM

@KazWolfe WINDOWS VERSION

Nathan Osman

Except ARM.

Serg

Frankly, I've still no clue what to do with just one Pi that I have

Zacharee1

eat it

Serg

Hopefully by the end of 2017 I'll figure out a few projects to tackle

@Zacharee1 I don't think PCBs digest that well in my delicate stomach

Kaz Wolfe

i was thinking of a few pi projects, but they're too trivial to go buy a pi

Nathan Osman

11:19 PM

@Serg remote control appliances.

@Serg #DatSiliconBorateTho

Zacharee1

@Serg What about that legendary Slavic strength?

Serg

@NathanOsman yeah, I was thinking of getting that solid state relay and make a light switch , because I'm too lazy to get up and turn it off myself

@Zacharee1 That slavic strength only translates to Vodka . . .

Zacharee1

hue

Serg

Also, PSA: drinking half bottle of vodka and going to work full day in restaurant ( like 12 hours) is bad idea. Don't try this at home . . . or elsewhere either

Zacharee1

@Serg have you seen the "You see Ivan" memes?

@Serg I don't think I would try working in a restaurant at home anyway

Kaz Wolfe

11:22 PM

RolandiXor

Flake.

Zacharee1

Nathan Osman

@Serg laziness is the mother of all innovation.

Serg

@Zacharee1 nice , never seen it before

@NathanOsman starred because it's true

Zacharee1

@NathanOsman no it's the grandmother; mother of necessity

Kaz Wolfe

11:23 PM

@Serg are you russian?

Serg

Also , boredom

Zacharee1

@KazWolfe Ukrainian

RolandiXor

@Zacharee1 that's taking a while...

Nathan Osman

@Zacharee1 necessity, schmessity.

Zacharee1

@RolandiXor loaded for me

Serg

11:24 PM

@KazWolfe I'm Ukrainian, but since most folks aren't skilled at geography . . . I'd say it's close enough

Zacharee1

Serg

Also, lol, one of my Chinese friends, with whom i was friends for years, just yesterday found out I'm Ukrainian and not American

Zacharee1

lol

Kaz Wolfe

@Serg do ukrainians drink as much vodka as russians? til.

Zacharee1

@KazWolfe Ukraine was part of the USSR for a while you know

Kaz Wolfe

11:26 PM

i do know.

Serg

@KazWolfe well . . .lets just put it this way: on my last visit to Ukraine , which was for like a month or something, I've spend more than 60 % of the time drinking . . .

Zacharee1

o_O

that could literally be every waking hour

Kaz Wolfe

oh my god. "you see ivan" is literal gold

Zacharee1

uh huh

@RolandiXor your tricks don't work on me

I have a dark theme muahahaha

RolandiXor

@Zacharee1 I have a better one but I can't find it

Zacharee1

11:29 PM

Kaz Wolfe

fun fact. This is the Fallout 3 tram, open in GECK:

Serg

My 2 fav cousins were visiting and another one, so we had a bottle of whiskey between 4 of us, then we also went to get Becherovka, which is like Czech herbal alcohol. Ooooh, that was baaad combo.

Zacharee1

can this be SE's new loading GIF?

Kaz Wolfe

no.

too colorful.

and complex.

Serg

@Zacharee1 it's not orange-white-black though

Zacharee1

11:31 PM

@Serg We can recolor

I win.

lol

11:34 PM

Nothing beats a Russian push-up.

@NathanOsman да

Zacharee1

11:36 PM

@KazWolfe looks like your message didn't load

Nathan Osman

Loading indicates that something is in progress. Let's show them the Gnome desktop.

RolandiXor

@NathanOsman ouch!

Zacharee1

edwinksl

nathan is definitely on the anti-gnome train

Zacharee1

@edwinksl what makes you say that?

Nathan Osman

11:38 PM

@Zacharee1 -1 needs undecahedron

Zacharee1

@NathanOsman go edit one in

Kaz Wolfe

@Zacharee1 that's your job.

Zacharee1

Kaz Wolfe

did i stutter?

Zacharee1

yes

I got this error where there should've been a message:

> Error: Could not load. (ERR_USER_FACE_TOO_UGLY)

weird

11:41 PM

rip

rip

@Zacharee1 oh, that's an easy one. look better, and it'll work

Nathan Osman

rip

Zacharee1

@KazWolfe that's a source sided error

Kaz Wolfe

11:42 PM

reacting to the client.

RolandiXor

Serg

Hmmmm, how does one explain to a person that their email might look slightly spammy and go into "spam" folder of the receiver ?

Zacharee1

@KazWolfe it's the server trying desperately to spare the internet from its owner

Kaz Wolfe

no, that's a 4xx error.

RolandiXor

Gotta run fam

See you later

Zacharee1

11:43 PM

@Serg Your email gets picked up by email spam filters. You should probably take this stuff out:

Kaz Wolfe

@RolandiXor where to? we'll follow

Zacharee1

@KazWolfe 404 dignity not found?

Nathan Osman

@RolandiXor kthxbai

RolandiXor

@Serg btw before I go, tell them straight up!

Nathan Osman

"straight up"

edwinksl

11:43 PM

lol

Zacharee1

@NathanOsman squiggly up?

Nathan Osman

Sure.

Serg

@RolandiXor "straight up" to a non-technical person, plus a Ukrainian/Russian parent - that doesn't always work out well

Nathan Osman

I'm so incredibly bored right now.

Zacharee1

@NathanOsman eat

Serg

11:45 PM

OK, scratch the non-technical part . . . my father can rebuild cars, like, from scratch, but when it comes to computers . . . oh,boy

Nathan Osman

@Zacharee1 did

Zacharee1

hmm

minecraft?

Nathan Osman

@Serg to each their own but aren't modern cars basically computers with wheels?

Kaz Wolfe

how to tell if a computer belongs to someone in devops: how dirty is the keyboard?

Nathan Osman

@KazWolfe nope. Check for stickers.

@Zacharee1 on a 5" screen?

Kaz Wolfe

11:47 PM

food in the keyboard is a much better indicator.

Serg

@NathanOsman @KazWolfe nope and nope. Check for presence of an IDE or a terminal, and desktop littered with scripts. Also potential coffee spills

Nathan Osman

@KazWolfe eating over a keyboard is a big no-no.

Byte Commander

^^

Nathan Osman

Instead, eat in front of the keyboard.

Then your clothes catch all the crumbs.

Zacharee1

@NathanOsman wat

Nathan Osman

11:49 PM

@Zacharee1 I'm in a chair with my phone.

Serg

Also, if you wear hoodie with hood in front of you, that a nice crumbs collector

6

Zacharee1

@NathanOsman y

Byte Commander

@Serg better wear one of those hoodies which you can zip up to the very top and eat inside.

Nathan Osman
