@att ?

rydwolf

Just printed out all the homework I've missed while (gestures around) for two classes and it's a solid quarter inch thick

@att ahh

yeah, maybe :p

but yeah like I really hope my academic advisor can do something to let me turn stuff in late 'cause I've got stuff ranging from a day late to two weeks late and unless I can get credit for it I'm getting Cs or Bs in basically everything

oh and then I've also got three more classes I need to catch up on

Gonna lock in so hard though don't even worry guys

I should probably fix the fact that I am both very dehydrated and without a writing utensil

emanresu A

You've got a very good excuse :p (and half your professors probably know what you've been doing already anyway)

rydwolf

nah, these are mostly lecture classes

I'm not actually that far from a B- in diff eq if I get like a 90 on the last midterm and/or do well on the final, so if I can get exceptions for all this late work, I might actually be doing fine

That's...a couple big ifs tho lol

hi rydwolf are you okay

rydwolf

flaccid drive

lyxal

@emanresuA no he's rydwolf

I really just tried to open the all rooms tab when I already had it open

I've got it as a bookmark on mobile

So I went from having the all rooms page open, went to the bookmarks page, tapped all rooms page only to realise that's where I'd come from

CMU has a bio class that only counts for a few units where you literally just brew beer and I'm really curious what the mechanics of that class are for people under 21 lol

Neil

07:39

@rydwolf according to google ai you need to be able to buy beer to brew it so the age limit used to vary by state but I guess it's now 21 everywhere

@Ginger personally the rason i haven't voted for her is that i've never interacted with her at all on account of timezones

comment of the day:

So happy to see C at the top for once! You can actually shave off about 9 bytes by simply replacing the f(a,b){a*=b;} part with 1##& and then just changing your language to Mathematica. — Albert Renshaw Feb 8, 2017 at 23:40

can't spell mathematica without c

Themoonisacheese

the things i do for golfing

i'm currently trying to generate a cert using openssl 0.9.6 (released sep 2000) using a 16-bit rsa key

i'm actually surprised i managed to compile that version of openssl at all but it worked first try

Themoonisacheese

10:57

what do you know this 24 years old version of openssl meant for pentiums doesn't actually function properly

emanresu A

time to install a pentium emulator :p

Themoonisacheese

i mean

i have a plethora of EDA tools at my disposition if i really wanted to i could accurately simulate an entire pentium at the transistor level

it'd be slow as balls but i could

Rate my wired internet

Very reminiscent of hexanaut.io

Themoonisacheese

when i lived at my parents my room was on the opposite side of the house from the router, so i bought a flat cat5 and laid it under the carpet that was becoming unglued at the border, under door plates that i dismounted to route the cable, and finally to my server

i then put a wifi card in the server and bridged the wired connection to it so i could have reliable wifi in my room and to my surprise it actually worked really well

mousetail 'he-him'

Context: My studio is being renovated, it was supposed to take a week but it's been two months. Now my landlord finally provided a different temporary room I can stay in. I need good internet but since it's temporary I don't care that much about doing it well

Themoonisacheese

nothing is as permanent as a temporary solution

mousetail 'he-him'

14:08

Yep. I hope not though because this new room sucks

Themoonisacheese

oof

people who are knowledgeable with android: i need help xdaforums.com/t/how-to-fix-a-bootloop.4702920

mousetail 'he-him'

It's on the ground floor and big windows facing the street. It's just one long room so I have like 0 privacy

If I close the curtains it's very dark

Themoonisacheese

@mousetail'he-him' i bet the noise from outside is also mint

mousetail 'he-him'

Luckily I'm not especially sensitive to noise, since I used to live in India. But yes there is also a good amount of noise

Q: In what order will the downloads complete?

Background Recently, I was installing updates on my pc with Pacman and noticed the order it downloaded files was like this Start with the largest 4 downloads When a download completes, start downloading the next biggest file. Since the biggest file takes the longest to download, you'll often se...

hmm yes four spam flags from ELL because people are arguing over the pronunciation of "parkour"

@NewPosts ahh, I almost thought I had a really elegant solution that didn't have room to exploit sorting, until I realized it had zero memory of what jobs it already started and just greedily booted in-progress jobs out :P

shame I have to go now

Never thought I'd see the day where sleep sort had a practical use :p

The girl from the same dorm I live in who I kinda sorta have a crush on just invited me to hang out with her (and some other people but still)

It conflicts with something else on my schedule but...I think I have to prioritize lol

She seemed really nervous to ask so maybe she does like me

Some context: she has a really unique name, and I went to a friend of mine's apartment a few days ago and saw a thing with her name on it, and figured out that my friend's roommate is her big (as in, sorority), so I might be able to ask my friend's roommate to sort of be a wingman and figure that out for me lol

Unrelated String

Neat

Yeah I feel like that is something you can almost need a third opinion on

(also how “kinda sorta” are we talking, if I may pry :P)

@Ginger in chat civilisation, no one raises flags on the beef

true

maybe this whole RO election thing was just a ploy to get me 15% of a silver discussion tag badge

emanresu A

22:31

@UnrelatedString Yeah it's really hard to come up with an elegant golflang algorithm for this that's not just "reverse sort and run the alg"

rydwolf

23:11

@UnrelatedString in the sense that I don't really know if I would want a relationship with anyone right now but I definitely like her

We met during orientation week and had lunch (or maybe dinner?) together and she's really cool

There were a few lines I definitely interpreted as flirty fwiw (like I mentioned I rode a motorcycle and she was like "oh maybe you could teach me how to")

but it's hard to gauge

Unrelated String

23:35

Ahh

…how experienced would you consider yourself in interpreting those kinds of signals

Incidentally

INCIDENTALLY

@rydwolf (this is a cry for help would you mind if I DMed you on Discord)

rydwolf

I wish discord made it easier to have multiple accounts

I'm signed in on the one I use for CMU stuff rn
